Collagen powder and increased stiffness?
Recently, my husband experienced a distressing episode of extreme stiffness. He described it as a sensation of having someone squeeze him at the base of his brain (he had DBS in 2022), causing him to feel extremely stiff in his head, shoulders, neck and arms. In general, stiffness is his issue, but

Shingles.
I have always posted about my Afib and cardioablation. And all you nice people have helped me immensely. But now I'm going through another matter. Thirteen days ago I came down with shingles. The rash started on my back around my left shoulder blade and moved under my arm and onto my left breast. I can

I’m travelling to Bali in April and been recommended to have Typhoid, Tetanus and Hepatitis A boosters. Has anyone experienced any issues following these vaccinations please? Currently on 0.5mg Pred and no intention of reducing further until after the holiday!

For those who take Biotin - how much should I take?
Hello, I'm experiencing thinning and brittle hair despite good Vit D, Ferritin, Folate and B12 levels. I've been doing some investigation as to the potential causes and it seems I'm taking too much Selenium (350µg)but I'm not sure about ideal Biotin levels (I'm currently taking 100µg daily). I had

Like everyone, I'm trying desperately to get my antibodies at an optimal range. I currently take 75 mcg of Tirosint and also something called T-150 by Xymogen, which my functional doc prescribed. (It's basically a bovine, multi-glandular, mineral, and herbal formula to support healthy thyroid function

Help with blood test interpretation for my daughter
Hello Everyone, I'm new here and asking for my 18 year old daughter. I've come over from the Thyroid UK forum at their suggestion. She's been quite unwell for about 3-4 years slowly getting worse. We've been stuck with unhelpful medics both private and NHS who have not got anywhere with her symptoms

DBS. Did it improve your life as much as you hoped?
Well I feel the DBS conveyor belt moving again, bringing me closer to the surgery date. I have an appointment with Professor Silverdale in a couple of weeks and I have questions to ask. Can anyone reading this who has had the surgery give me their honest thoughts as to whether the DBS surgery has improved

Shingles pain
I've had shingles with continuing pain. Wounds like a burn and a scratch are taking ages to heal. I am older, 66, and I know this can happen. Any suggestions for tests I could ask for and is there any point asking for them. Best wishes Fiona

Kinder , Gentler and harmless Alternative of DBS
Seeking a kinder, gentler alternative, researchers from Korea's Yonsei University created minuscule magnets tagged with antibodies. The devices are known as nanoscale magnetic force actuators, or m-Torquers. These m-Torquers were injected into the subthalamic nucleus of mice with early- and late-stage

I’ve tapered down to 5mg of prednisone over the last 8 months and so far my PMR is at acceptably low levels. I’ve been offered the shingles vaccine and wondering whether to have it. What is your advice?
