I have been diagnosed with NAFLD. Could this have been caused due to me taking Amitryptaline as a sleeping pill for the last few years.
I have felt recently that the Amitryptaline has not been as effective as I am not sleeping well again and I am thinking of stopping taking these. I looked up what the effects of using Amitryptaline could be and it pointed to some sort of Hepatic side effects. Elevated liver function tests, drug-induced

Mirena coil not working as well as before in controlling pain?
Hi all, I found this site when searching how long lasting the Mirena is, as I am suffering from the return of endo pain after my third year of having it. I'm wondering if its because it needs replacing, or is it that my body is fighting the affects of it and the endo is taking over in a sense? I'm hoping

Truffle Festival at Uzès
This weekend I was treated to the much-anticipated Truffle Festival Birthday Treat. I'd never tasted a truffle. I also tend to think of trips abroad as something you take a week or fortnight to do. This was to be a whistle-stop weekend in Montpellier leaving Gatwick at Friday lunch time, a day sightseeing

Results confirmed thyroid cancer
Well, following my hemithyroidectomy on 2nd Jan, it was confirmed for me this evening that my lump was in fact Papillary Thyroid Cancer. I feel as though I knew this news was coming, but don't know a lot about it. So if anyone can offer anything positive I'd be really grateful. Any handy hints welcome

Trichloroethylene and Autoimmunity
The other day, someone responded to me asking why there is so much thyroid disorder and whether it is increasing or only being diagnosed more often. The part that has always confused me is what is causing the autoimmunity. I feel qualified to be an armchair speculator about some other aspects of thyroid

IBS caused by hypermobility syndrome?
I read an article the yesterday about IBS being quite common in patients with hypermobility syndrome. Hypermobile people have a problem with the collagen in their bodies. Collagen is involved with the muscles, tendons, ligaments and anything that moves in the body. It makes everything extra elastic so

Is it really COPD?
I have been diagnosed with mild COPD but I wondered if anybody else suffers strange attacks. I become sort of lightheaded, not giddy, but a strange feeling and then I feel breathless and as though I am going to fall over. It is accompanied by real weakness which can last for some time-an hour or more

AIR QUALITY in Britain - does this exacerbate our breathing problems ?
Have just returned from my usual visit to Sicily - this time for Christmass, blue skies, warm sunshine tea shirts and shorts , and THAT AIR - clear as a bell, within an hour I put all my inhaylers away and barely used them for nearly two weeks. Within 20 minuets of returning to Gatwick Airport and
