1 more question?! Maybe more!
You will all be getting fed up with me ! Today I started the 10 mcg Buprenorphine patch...changed from 12 mcg Fentanyl patch which didn't do much for pain and definitely nothing for the rls ! How long, approximately, does it take for Buprenorphine to kick in and start to help....hopefully? I wasn't

Supplements.
I have had PD for nearly ten years. I am not a Coeliac. I am trying supplements to see if they can improve my Leaky gut problems. Does anyone else take supplements and do they have any contraindications with my PD meds. My local pharmacy are no help, and I have yet to meet a Dr who knows about nutrition

Leg swelling - hyperthyroid
Hi, I was diagnosed with Graves two months ago, put on 20mg Carbimazole, 120mg Diltiazem daily. My last blood test on Dec 7 showed my thyroid numbers are in the normal range for the most part and so my Carbimazole dose was reduced to 5mg once per day; I was taken off the calcium channel blocker. I

Alternative to beta blockers
I was experiencing severe breathlessness whilst exercising which coincided with my use of a beta blocker to treat AF. As a result of this, my cardiologist took me off Bisoprolol and prescribed a drug named Diltiazem, which is a calcium channel blocker as opposed to a beta blocker. It has only been a

Prostrate Cancer treatment ADT
HiI am being treated for PC. After diagnose I was put on ADT treatment. This stops testosterone production. Had a bone scan and found I have osteopenia. I am taking a calcium citrate with vitamin D. Also once per week Alendronate 70mg. Has anyone else been in the same boat? Thanks

Hypothesis XII
Hypothesis XII The reason I write a hypothesis instead of using what if or it might be is that it is laborious. No way do I have the funding or experience to prove my hypothesis. The reality that no expert is going to try and prove or disprove it is inconsequential. I very much only write as it helps

Pain everywhere.
I've been 10+ yrs searching for answers. I had some bladder problems in 2013. Doctors did surgery. I almost died. Apparently they told me my blood vessels looked funny. They didn't know if they "knicked " me or what but I lost 8 pints of blood very quickly. They barely got me transfusion in time. I chalked

How to improve your blood pressure
I have recently fallen in love. With capillaries. In his brilliant book, ‘The Secret Language of Cells’, Dr John Leif, physician and neuroscientist, dedicates a whole chapter to them, calling these tiny vessels, ‘brain centres’ of tissue development. With a yogic lens, this speaks to the body intelligence

Getting a thyroidectomy soon, what to expect?
Hi, recently diagnosed with a tumour in my thyroid, so team at hospital will be removing the whole thing soon. I am overwhelmed with all this stuff I've been reading here about T4/T3, vitamins, calcium etc. I thought I just had to take a tablet every day, dosage might be adjusted if necessary, but that
