DID ALPHA LIPOIC ACID LOWER YOUR THYROID LEVELS?
Good morning! I just came across several articles stating Alpha Lipoic Acid should not be taken by preclinical hypos, or hypos, by one, and another stating precautions and advice should be taken if on levothyroxine as it can lower its effects by a very significant amount adding, however, that it may

Now taking Alendronic Acid because of need to take Steroids. - Advice please?

I always managed my condition without Bisphosphonates, firstly when I was able to take HRT and some supplements, then, when HRT was no longer an option, with diet, exercise and supplements.

I need a new back.
Hi, I have had my telephone follow up appointment, ( for those of you who don't know, my clinic one was cancelled ) I have been told, that because of the current situation with Covid-19 it is not worth the risk to my health to bring me back to clinic for another six months. I will have a face to face

Generic alendronate vs brand Fosemax
Hi Everyone, I have finally reached the point where my doctor has recommended that I begin treatment for osteoporosis. The hope is to take bisphosonates for 2-3 years then a drug holiday if all goes well. I have read a number of articles that state while generics are fine for many other conditions

Excruciating back pain
I’m waiting for my appointment to go through with gyny and have a scan on Wednesday. I’m on codeine and mefenamic acid. I’m very constipated lol. I’m still getting cramping and ovary pain. The pain has moved right across my lower back for the past week and it’s excruciating. Is this common?

Can Prednisolone Cause Extreme Fatigue?
I am awaiting a biopsy for confirmation of a diagnosis of GCA and started 60mg Prednisolone daily 5 days ago. I take them straight after breakfast but am getting absolutely crushing fatigue around lunchtime and the first half of the aftenoon. This is worse than the fatigue I was experiencing before starting

Help with blood results
So, the endo is happy with my T3 and T4. Mid to upper range. However I still suffer from bloating, hair loss and fairly rapid pulse (90 bpm) . I take 50mcg levo and 1 grain Thai NDT. I had my iron checked in June 19. GP told me that my levels were ‘normal’. I’ve recently had the Mirena coil removed

Three months off...
Hi all. I've been a lurker here since I had some liver issues that were picked up from routine blood tests, with the usual culprits GGT, ALP, AST, ALT all raised. This was put down to fatty liver due to my high alcohol consumption, and rough liver texture on the ultrasound, by the hepatologist, based

Vitamins
I am now down to 1/2 of a 1mg prednisone after almost two and one half years. My only concern is my red blood cell count is still up . I am thinking of cutting back on my vitamin D. The doctor has me on 2000mg but I was also on 25mg of prednisone . I am thinking I may only need 1000 now. I have stopped

Operation Moonshot proposals are scientifically unsound, experts argue.
The idea of Moonshot is to frequently use new point-of-care tests across the whole population to detect asymptomatic disease. The Moonshot proposals are based on a computer model and not a real study. Whilst it has been reported that the model shows that “less accurate” tests are suitable for use in
