Alendronic Acid - I am thinking of trying without this for two or three months to see if my balance and walking improve.
I was diagnosed with GCA in January 2013 and put on steroids, Lansoprazole and Alendronic Acid. I am also on Thyroxine and Calcichew. I find walking difficult with aching calf muscles, in particular. How long should I be off it to give it a fair trial? My Dr has told me that I can't have another DEXA

Has anyone taking vitamin D3, linked vitamin D3 to having 'Hypo's' with Type 2 Diabetes please ?
Apologies this is not Thyroid related, but I feel this is the best HU site to ask my questions on as many members on here are aware of vitamin D3, many on here also might take it and many on here might also have Diabetes Type 2. * Has anyone or someone you know with Type 2 Diabetes and taking vitamin

Mental health or thyroid issues?
Hi all - apologies for the length but I hope you can help. I was diagnosed in August 2013 with an underactive thyroid following the birth of my son. I had put on 4 stone in my pregnancy that I just couldn't shift no matter what I did and was incredibly anxious/down and lethargic with a lot of head fuzz

Could vitamin D3 help RLS ?
Not sure if this would or could help anyone, but this is my Story and what happened to a Friend of mine also. I had bloods taken and vitamin D was found to be low, so my Doctor prescribed me 1,000iu of vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol) I use to find it difficult to sit down for long as it hurt so much on

Feeling better but the weight/bloating just will not shift - will I always be fat now??
I'm a year in to diagnosis and treatment now and have to say, I am feeling so much better. The last 6 weeks have been the best for me since diagnosis of hypothyroidism. I've achieved this by taking: 125mg Levo 10mg T3 Ferrous sulphate 3 times a day for my ferritin deficiency I take my iron tablets
