For the longest i've been thinking I've got a brain tumour and honestly thinking you have any type of cancer or anything serious is so draining and depressing. I actually feel so depressed. I just want to know do people get headaches that last for 3 days? i would get a few days where i would be free

Is an AN a brain tumour?
I had three AN's removed thirty years ago. My question is related to my driving licence renewal where there is a question "have you ever had a brain tumour". I ticked the yes box and that has triggered paperwork from DVLA asking me to fill in a six page medical questionnaire and details of my GP so they

Are parabens in ThyroidS safe?
I've recently increased my ThyroidS because latest TSH results were 28.5. So I'm increasing from 1 to 2.

Biotin & thyroid tests
Just to back up what others have posted about biotin affecting thyroid testing. I had a thyroid blood test done at GP unexpectedly and forgot that I should have stopped my supplements a few days before. I was just supplementing with Thornes b complex so not a high dose. The test came back and my levels

DBS...feeling pressured & can't decide!
How does one weigh out the risks & make the right decision as to having the DBS surgery? It's been 14+ years since my diagnosis at age 45. I am currently on Rytary 23.75/95 MG, taking 3 cap. 4-5 x day. With the first dose of the day I also take 1 tab. Ropinirole 0.5 MG. The 1st dose usually lasts about

Shingles post FCR

Thanks for info about biotin and thyroid tests
Can't find the original post but wanted to thank those who posted about biotin interfering with thyroid tests. I've been on T4 for over 20 years and additionally T3 for a couple of years & NO ONE ever mentioned this to me. Should be interesting to see what my results are after my tests tomorrow. My

Falling over after DBS
I was very fortunate to gave undergone DBS surgery almost exactly two years ago at the JR in Oxford. Almost every aspect of my symptoms have improved dramatically, the only problems I am left with is my totally illegible handwriting; my weak voice and, worst of all, the occasional fall for no reason!

DBS Denied. Any recourse?
My sister was denied DBS after having been told she was an ideal candidate. The neuropsych evaluator decided she didn't meet the criteria. Initially she was told she would have to wait 6 months to be reevaluated, then it was a year. This was supposedly because she might remember too much about the

Neurologist appointment wasn't too bad yesterday but still need help
The neurologist was nice: gentle, calm and listened to me, even though I was not at my best and ranted on a bit. Hard to get through 2 1/2 years of stuff, after waiting for 5/6 months (which I understand is quite good for neurology), without getting a bit angry or upset, and the appointment goes so
