Methotrexate Not Working. Next Step?
Hello. After being diagnosed a few months ago with RA, nothing has helped me feel any better. I've been on methotrexate for 4 months, cymbalta for 3 months, and lyrica for 2 weeks. Oxycodones help slightly, but only mask some of the pain. My last x-ray a couple months ago revealed bone damage, so I'm

Night Cramps torment
Hi to everyone. Does anyone have any suggestions to help relieve night cramps in both legs and feet? I am 63 years. I have endured these for the last 8 or 9 years and it seems to be getting worse. I am taking prescribed quinine every night, (breaking the course for a week every month) and cover my legs

Hi Everyone! I just had to post to let you know all my numbers are continuing to improve. My biggest issue was hemoglobin and it's now up to a 14. My cells have come back normal in shape and size. My oncologist is thrilled with where I'm at and I did have final iron infusion today as a booster and he

No other option
I've never posted something like this or have gone to a support group; but at this point I don't know what else to do. I've been diagnosed with bi-polar and severe anxiety. I have had anxiety and social anxiety for as long as I can remember. I'm on valium, lithium and lamictal. Over the past few months

Diagnosed with Meniere's but want input from other sufferer's
I was originally diagnoses with vertigo, now the my physician is saying Meniere's Disease. But my brain is real foggy, it's difficult to concentrate, I'm having mobility issues. I've been on prednizone for two days now and it has helped some, but not what I thought and I only have two days left. I'm

Painful Thyroiditis - treatment options?
For 19 months since diagnosis I've suffered with ongoing flares of painful thyroiditis including neck pain, struggling and painful swallowing, chest pain flu like symptoms & throat mucus etc. My Endo has arranged a barium swallow and I've got this Thursday - within a week which is excellent on the NHS

T3 availability on NHS in Sheffield update
I've seen my Endo at Hallamshire Hospital today who informed me that in addition to towns in South Yorkshire the NHS is now "red lighting" Sheffield so no one will be able to get T3 at all on the NHS in this region. He also commented how many of his patients are struggling sourcing T3. I was dreading

Iron supplement advice
Hi all, I have low ferritin which I have supplemented using a sachet of spatone a day and brought up from 13 to 26 with the range of 23-300. It is the only vitamin/mineral that's crucial for thyroid function that I'm low in and as I'm still having issues I'd like to try to raise it higher. However, I

Doing things different today
Yesterday I stayed sedated. My pic line then the Cath. Today I'm staying away from my sedation of Valium to see how my new med is working. The doc put me on tikosyn. I will be getting my fourth dose shortly. As of right now I'm not feeling well. I'm a little dizzy, have a headache and a bit of chest

How's your sleep? Could magnesium help you?
HI Everyone. Sleep is one of THE key aspects to our wellbeing. If our sleep is out this can knock out hormones, make us crave more sugar, result in lack lustre complexion and generally just make us feel dull. In order to thrive, we need to be well rested so we can digest the emotions of the day as well
