Only temporary respite from IV iron?
Back again - thought I was done with RLS after my iron infusion but seems like the respite was only temporary. Presently having symptoms from dawn until dusk, though some days are worse than others. Iron IV was 6 weeks ago; have just had bloods drawn for an iron panel so will see my neurologist when

What's in a word?
Health care in the UK has seen a change in the last couple of years. Patients with one or more long term conditions are now asked about their experiences and how they would like to be treated. Carers are also consulted. Well done to all the organisations and Universities that go that extra mile, you

Low TSH
hello, I’m wondering if some of you knowledgeable people can give me some advice please. I feel under medicated on 75 mcg of levothyroxine, but the doctor insisted that I needed a blood test, even though they agreed my symptoms sounded like I needed an increase in meds. I’ve called the surgery and surprise

Multivitamins when it’s impractical/not possible to take several a day
I know multivitamins aren’t a good idea but I have an elderly friend who’s elderly sister is in hospital and hasn’t been eating well for four weeks. She’s sleeping all the time and her none-too-young children are exhausted from travelling miles three times a day to feed her I suggested asking her

Thyroid or Pituitary Problem?
Sorry in advance for the long essay! Desperatly hoping for some advice. I am a 30-year-old female suffering fatigue, brain fog & migraine with visual disturbances since July 2020, therefore I stopped the COCP after a 10-year use (which was prescribed for the management of menorrhagia). Since stopping

Doctor put my b12 schedule on my records.
this week after a visit to the ED and changed symptoms related to my spine degenerative disease, I saw a different doctor at the practice, as she was going through my history, she asked about my B12 and It’s diagnosis, including the hospital discharge saying I did it EOD. I explained I had been diagnosed

Stopping vitamins before blood test - query
Hi all, I take a multi vitamin which includes b vitamins and methylfolate etc - I am going for bloods tomorrow for Thyroid and Folate - I know I have read on her previously about stopping vitamins (containing B2?) up to a week before repeat bloods, I haven't taken mine in a good 5 days, I just wondered

is active b12 a better indicator than free b12
hi all my recent total b12 test came in at 468 (range 179-2000) so just 17% through range. I take sublingual b12 drops daily, a vitamin b complex tablet and I had a b12 shot a few weeks ago and so wasn’t expecting it to drop. I got my active b12 test back today and it says 116 (range 37.5-150) so

Hair loss getting worse - what am I missing?
I have been struggling with hair loss for 3 years. It is now falling at an alarming rate and I fear being forced into wigs or hair replacement surgery. It's been a long journey, so I don't know that I'll remember everything, but I'll try to hit the important points: 1. I have no thyroid 2.

Low AMH and Metformin (insulin resistance)
Hi all I know Metformin is often used in fertility for people who have PCOS, therefore with a high ovarian reserve. I have had an insulin resistance test recently which showed elevated levels, it has been suggested I take Metformin for it. I have low AMH though and am a little worried about whether

Carbs and PMR
I've seen a lot of posts stating the necessity of eliminating carbs from one's diet. Does this mean all carbs, or the simple ones? So many healthy foods are also carbs and make up the majority of my diet - fruits, veggies, whole grains. When I was diagnosed with pre-diabetes I made some dietary changes

Ambroxol
Would anyone share if you have participated in a clinical trial using the drug Ambroxol for PD? There have been several clinical trials which have published encouraging resusts, mostly in the UK. I am not formally in a trial but have been duplicating the dosage for about 12 months. My experience is favorable

Homemade TTFD/TPD?
From Dr. Lonsdale book: "Allicin, a compound that gives garlic its odor, is formed by enzymatic action during the grinding of fresh bulbs of garlic. Allicin conjugates with thiamine in an alkaline medium to form allithiamine [2′methyl-4′-aminopirymidyl-(5′)methylformamino-5-hydroxy-2-pentenyl-(3) allyl
