Medication help
Hi, all I have been on Gabapentin 900mg for RLS for a few months now. I was referred to Neurology as I asked for Codeine for breakthrough symptoms and was turned down and more or less called a junkie!!! My GP today has received a letter from Neurology for me to try some new medication while I wait for

Appointment tomorrow
Hi everyone. I have a hospital appointment tomorrow and don’t hold much hope. Long story short... RAI in 2011. Now hypo and health has got worse over the years. Lots of symptoms. Never get anywhere trying to get a T3 trial. Last hospital appointment in September was a waste of time and was fobbed

Good news - different injector - no blood shot eyes!
I recently wrote than when a particular individual did my eye injections I came out with two bloodshot eyes. This person said there may be some bruising as I’m now taking blood thinners. I wasn’t sure this was true as thought it was more likely her technique, which despite reassuring words felt more

My Thyroid Story Part II
Dr OPQ, GP/homeopath So, after lengthy chats with one of my students, who was a great fan of homeopathy, I thought I’d give that a go. Not much choice of doctors where I live, but managed to find one that also did acupuncture, which was a bonus. To his credit, he did say straight up that he didn’t know

What next!
Having suffered for 40 years and tried most things I am now just on 30ml Codeine and totally exhausted with lack of sleep as it doesn't really work. I've been reading through all the wonderful advice about medicine to help RLS, concluding that Tramadol or Medical Cannabis is the best next step? Maybe

Taking two 30mg co-codamol pills permanently
I have chronic back pain, probably because of my long computer working hours. Long story short, I started to take co-codamol (30mg codeine + 500 mg paracetamol). I love it, not only does the pain disappear, but my miserable, painful, depressed, and tired day becomes the happiest day of my life, I feel

Has anybody taken Subutex (Suboxone, Buprenorphine to help come off Codeine? What was it like for you and what were the withdrawals like?
I fractured my rib 2 years ago and I was put on Codeine Phosphate to help with the pain. It took a long time for my rib to heal so I took Codeine everyday for 6 months. I knew then that I had an addiction because I didn't want to stop taking them. They just made me so relaxed and euphoric. Anyway 2 year

Sublinical Hypothyroidism?
Hi Everyone, I've recently been to A and E for palpitations and they have found no issue with my heart. This is the second time this has happened this year. These always come with the usual symptoms below that occur in the run up and aftermath. Usually I dose up on vitamins and it eventually seems to

Diet and exercise for hyperthyroidism?
Hi all, Has anyone tried a low iodine diet combined with exercise to control their overactive thyroid (Graves’ disease), either as a sole treatment or in conjunction with other treatments? Would love to hear your thoughts on this.

The ABC of Disease book by Philip Day
Has anyone read the above book and especially his section on thyroid disease? He recommends, for hypo, taking Lugo's Iodine (self medicating before having to resort to thyroxine) - has anyone tried this? His advice on diet & supplements is also very helpful. Interestingly, he refers to the book called

In Pain after 3 hysteroscopies in 6 weeks, and now have my period - Yay
Hello. Well where to start! I am 40, have had horrific periods (like from a horror film) for most of my life.

Iodine Content of Celtic Sea Salt
We see many people mentioning that they get iodine from Celtic Sea Salt. I don't dispute that it does contain some iodine. But the amount might be rather less than we tend to imagine. I went to one company's web site (Selina) and checked on their plain Celtic Sea Salt. [i]Q. Does Celtic Sea Salt®

Iodine in end stage Hashimoto´s?
I had a thyroid ultrasound a couple of weeks ago which showed a "completely atrophied thyroid gland" according to the radiologist´s report. I was diagnosed with Hashimotos in 1999 based on very high anti-TPO and anti-thyroglobulin levels, but both have been in range for the last couple of years which

Hospital Trip
So 4 wks after transplant, 2nd trip to clinic. Bit disappointing. I am in pain, constipated on and off & am pretty sure I’ve got a UTI as I’m going to toilet every 20/30 mins and passing little. Nurses were fantastic. Doctor looked at wound, happy with it. Asked me how I was told him codeine was making

SSRI toxicity on thyroid ?
I've read that SSRIs contain halogen atoms that can substitute for Iodine (itself an halogen), making thyroid hormones inefficient. Will it show on the biology (normal T3 and T4 and higher TSH because it will not slow TSH secretion) ? I can't find anything online...

Pericarditis and effusion
Christmas Eve I started getting really short of breath that worsened very quickly to the point of not being able to t walk more than a few steps without needing to sit down and get my breath back. I’ went to see my gp, as I walked into the building I started throwing up violently . She called an ambulance
