Timings of thyroid meds, calcium and HRT
Hi. I've had an appointment with my endocrinologist this morning, and he would like me to try taking my thyroxine at night (to see if it helps with sleep), which is actually what I did years ago before being told by a nutritionist I shouldn't. The trouble is, I now take HRT at night (progesterone tablets

Calcium deficiency?
On prednisolone for 9 months - does anyone know if it’s PMR or the pred which might cause calcium deficiency? About 3 months ago a bit of a molar broke off and yesterday the same thing happened on the other side of my mouth. Plus my nails have become very soft and are splitting. I can’t get in to see

A Thyroid Mess
I have posted on here recently concerning my erratic behavior, con-cerning my dosing and (re)dosing the same doses of thyroid medications over the past year or so. I was so mixed up and stymied over my thyroid situation that I just sensed a crisis of unknown proportions that I would never figure out

Wiggly and wobbly legs from iron deficiency?
Anyone feel the RLS in their legs and everything, and then when you try to get up and move around you just feel too weak to keep standing? These past 2 days have been bad. I don’t know how to stop the restlessness. I was drifting in and out of sleep at around 11:30 PM, and every time I woke up I’d

feeling hopeless and anxious
i know i’ve been posting a lot and i’m sorry for that, but i’m just so depressed and anxious. the RLS has gotten worse in the last 2 weeks and all i have is gabapentin, valium, and some supplements. the soonest i can see a new neurologist is February, which is better than my original appointment in March

Happy Holidays
Could anyone tell me why some people do better than others? Are there many strains out there of PCa? I haven't had a PSA in like 3 months but I've had a .04 last time. I was diagnosed in mid 2012 and it's been lupron and Xtandi. I'm at NIH in a clinical trial but others I've known there have died. When
