I'm also a type-1 diabetic and just been diagnosed with peripheral neuropathy (although still being investigated), I've been put on duloxetine for pain, but am experiencing some not-very-pleasant

T4 to T3 conversion.
Hi all, I recently had a blood test done and I have a feeling my t4/T3 conversion rate isn't good. I took the test early in the morning,. no food or drink from the night before. I regularly self inject B12 as I have pernicious anaemia. I supplement with D3, magnesium and omega 3 oil. For the past couple

I started on Prednisone November 11 2021. The diagnosis was probable GCA. I remember writing a post on here detailing how crazy/busy my life. 101 things on the go at the same time. I received lots of replies about needing to slow down etc. At the time I had no idea just how much I would need to slow

Rheuma wants me on alendronate?! What are your t-scores?
So, I saw my new Rheuma for the 2ed time. I was prepared to explain how affull I felt (flair), and why I needed to go back on 10 mg, but I could have saved my breath. He could tell from the way I rose from the chair and walked towards him! "You are not so flying anymore?" he said. So we agreed to go

I've been reminding myself how far I've come. Back in 2016 I was struggling to have enough energy to get dressed and spent many days in my PJ's. Most I managed was to provide a meal each day. Showering was exhausting so that didn't happen often either. Back then I had few spoons and when they were

Hello Everybody, I had a DEXA scan in 2020, as far as I can see the only worrying result was the neck of femur -2.7. I have just had another DEXA scan on a different machine, and the same result was -2.9. To me, that is not a great difference, having been on steroids for 2 1/2 years. I now have been

How much is too much D3
Any views on taking 10,000 iu d3 daily? There’s evidence that it’s ‘safe and well tolerated’ I went to see my bone consultant today, he wasn’t impressed by me taking this amount but my calcium level is good and my dexa results have gone from -2.6 to -2.1 in 2 years I also take k2 and magnesium ,

ANRC Plus instead of B complex?
The below is my own work which I am simply sharing. I have no other agentia other than to invite comments and zero expectations. I make no claim to legitimacy or accuracy. I have less than zero medical training. It makes sense to me that any supplement should be checked to insure that an ingredient

I came off Alendronic Acid because I didn’t think it was agreeable with me, it was a couple of months ago and I can’t remember the exact reason but it was on the suggestion of a consultant I was seeing for another reason and I have been fine. I started to take it again 3 weeks ago because I knew I
