Post Lobectomy
Hi all, I had a right lower open surgery lobectomy last July and fortunately advised they removed the mass completely and no further treatment required. It was found to be non-small-cell lung cancer – squamous cell carcinoma. I have since had several scans due to chest infections and a cough which does

Advice please
Hello I have been taking Pregabalin 150 mg and codeine 60mg for some time now and it is no longer effective. My Neurologist wants me to go back on to Pramipexole which I have taken in the past before I had augmented and came off the drug. My neurologist wants me to start on a low dosage of pramipexole

Pain meds after D&C?
Hi all, I've just had a second miscarriage which required a D&C at 9 weeks last week. It's a heartbreaking experience and I'm off of work for two weeks. They've also removed a growth from my cervix at the same time. I'm also on really strong pain meds now (30g codeine, sleeping tablets, herbal anxiety

Thyroid support multis- opinion?
Virtually any brand of multi vits for Thyroid support has 200 mcg (round 100% NRV) iodine. Surely not advisable with Hashimotos/hypo? ( according to isabella wents for sure) Does anyone take Pure Encapsulations Thyroid support; Viridian Thyroid complex, Thorne Thyroid Cofactors? I'm on a normal AIP

No help or support!
Hi guys, I've been waiting for a lap since the end of 2019, still nothing and the pain is getting unbearable. It hurts to do anything, I keep having to take Co-Codamol, Codeine, Naproxen, now I'm on Amitriptyline but NOTHING is helping. I'm struggling to walk without severe pain in my right side, it

Gabapentin/Pregabalin - Who is actually finding this helps their RLS?
There has been a lot of advice on this Forum about A2B Ligands being first line of treatment (?) and I was thinking there must be a lot of people out there who were advised to come off DA's (slowly) and go onto these Ligands. Then I am reading a lot of posts of people whereby these Ligands stop working

Dealing with pain and fatigue
Hi, Does anyone have any tips for pain or fatigue? My endo is back with a vengeance. I need more surgery but I am avoiding it. I used to be on 60 mg codeine but found it unbearable due to the side effects. It affected my cognitive ability which I need as I am a senior manager. I also have 2 children

Covid Vaccine, medical conditions and allergies
I was just wondering whether anyone has taken any of the vaccines? Although I work within a hospital setting where some of my colleagues have already received it, had been sent a text by my GP stating I should book and appointment and now furloughed, I really do not wish to take it due to my allergies

Suppressed Thyroid ore unable Thyroid plus T3 problem
As this is my first post I will try and give short history as it is important. At the age of 17 (I am now 74) I was diagnosed with Hypoactive thyroid which strangely made me put on weight and also made one of eyes bulge. I was given iodine in tablet form and eventually things went back to normal .

RLS Breakthrough Number 5
When sleeping in a bed, a weighted blanket is useless for me. By keeping a 16 pound weighted blanket on my knees while sitting up I am able to sleep 3-4 hours even when cutting my normal dose of codeine in half. The key is to ensure that the weight forces my feet to the floor, so I make sure that most

Just started 100mg levothyroxine how long until symptoms improve?
I was diagnosed with Graves’ disease 4 years ago and had radioactive iodine treatment last October. Since then my bloods last week confirmed I’ve gone severely underactive which explains why I’ve felt so terrible recently. Really suffering with constipation, issues sleeping, anxiety, depression, muscle

Stopping thyroxine
Sorry can’t seem to reply to anyone. Yes it is a radioactive iodine scan to see what is going on. It is normal practice to stop meds for 4 weeks for best results
