Fascinating Graves’ Antibodies Study
This is a remarkable study https://eje.bioscientifica.com/view/journals/eje/158/1/69.xml . A couple of caveats. 1. I fortunately have no experience of Graves’. 2. I have not looked for similar studies that may report different results. The study is excellent in that patients were randomly assigned

Hormone type headaches
Hey everyone Just wondering if anyone else suffers from hormone headaches before their periods? I never used to but since I had a laparoscopy in 2018 and was told I have bowel adhesions, they've started and now have gotten to the point where I without fail have horrendous headachea for 3 days before

Pleurisy? Long post
Hi, new here. 6 weeks ago I went to A&E with severe chest/ left rib pain and vomiting. Without performing an x-ray on me, I was told that it was a spinal disc that was protruding into my rib cage. They said this could have been as a result of giving birth just 9 weeks ago and my posture changing? I was

Thyroid scan
Hi, just wanted to say a big thank you for your patience and advice on here. My previous blood results were normal and didn't show raised antibodies but was advised to go for thyroid scan to completely rule out hashimotos. I went yesterday and the scan showed no signs of hashimoto or thyroid disease

Self medicating - Your personal experience and advice appreciated
Fed up with my local NHS GP's approach to my hypo symptoms which led to a personal wobble/sulk/hissy fit at my last appointment in January which subsequently lasted until last week when I was due a 'medication review' before my Levo would be released I once again am seeking the wealth of knowledge from

Is it normal to be in THIS much pain?
The pain is crippling. I’ve had 2 ultrasound scans which showed nothing. The pain comes and goes in waves. On a bad day it’s really bad. The last 7weeks the pain seems to be getting worse. I’m waiting for a date for my laparoscopy. Is it normal for the pain to be mild one day and extreme the next day

Nice guidelines post Radioactive iodine
Hello everyone, I am just reading the NICE guidelines which now state that post RAI you should start patient off with dosing as per 1.6mg per kg weight. Monitoring after radioactive iodine treatment 1.7.1 Consider measuring TSH, FT4 and FT3 levels in adults, children and young people every 6 weeks

What would you do right now?🤯🤯🤯
Can someone provide support or advice right now on what you would do. I’m sat here going out of my mind. I am in agony I could cry. Yesterday attended the hospital for a doctors on call app, she checked me over, prescribed me strong codeine, told me my stomach is tender and swollen (something I already

New here - hypothyroidism??
Hello all, hope everyone is keeping well during these times. Apologies in advance this is going to be a long one! I found my way here after telling a friend about how bad my hair loss was getting. She advised I go to the doctor about it as it might be something quite serious especially as it has got

supplements interfering with medication
I know it's an obvious one but what are your thoughts/experiences with taking supplements that may interfere with, in my case hydroxychloroquine, or other RA/PsA meds? I started pizotifen a few weeks ago for severe migraine and cluster headache prevention. It worked like magic but I gained 3/4 stone

Radioactive iodine treatment uk
Hi I’m new here and live in the UK. I underwent radioactive iodine treatment twenty years ago for an overactive thyroid but now left with no thyroid function at all so have taken 150mcg synthetic thyroxine ever since. Since reading about NDT I would love to find a doctor here in the UK who would consider

Pain relief
Hi ladies Do any of you take slow release morphine capsules? I’ve been prescribed these but just feel reluctant to take them as I hate side effects although I take codeine (cocodamol) and occasionally ocycodone for worse pain Just wondering if the slow release ones will be more effective...I want to

Rheumy telephone appointment earlier
As most of you know I’ve been struggling despite the steroid injections into the knees and starting Sulfasalazine. I had my follow up with my rheumatologist earlier this afternoon and the upshot is that the steroid injections lasted all of three weeks. The Sulfasalazine she was hoping would have had

Medication and general care concerns
Hello to all. I was diagnosed with having a degenerative disease of my lumbar spine back in July 2011. Which has been life changing. When I say I have had all treatments I really have. I have been through and exhausted the pain clinics on two occasions. I have had extensive Physiotherapy, Accupunture
