update part two!
The lovely cardiac medical secretary called me yesterday as the consultant emailed her about my questions. To be honest it sounds like the consultant thinks I have already had my calcium ct scan results, which I haven’t! He said some calcifications doesn’t always mean heart disease - I didn’t know I

RLS - Q&A
Hi RLS survivors I am continuing my Pregabalin journey and wanted to check in with this community to ask out loud various questions circling around my head. The good news is that Pregabalin is making a difference. I get some relief from jumpy legs at night even on a low dose (75mg) What I am experiencing

Nothing is working! I’m not asking for advice I’m just feeling sorry for myself.
My girl is 8. She is hyper, extremely defiant, immature, LOUD, obnoxious, and has no impulse control. Honestly, I think she may be a narcissist. Can you tell at 8? I can’t leave her alone because any time I do she at best makes huge messes which she never cleans up but usually destroys things that are

Recently diagnosed under active thyroid - Hashimoto's, bit confusing!
So pleased to have found this forum! I had a routine blood test followed by a call from the GP asking me questions about how i was feeling. I get tired easily but put all symptoms like that down to getting older and haven't really any other symptoms. I had glandular fever age 18 and since then have

Alpro Almond Milk..... why do they do this? Any chemists have words of advice?
I stopped having cow's milk sometime ago and have been very happy using Alpro Almond milk instead. It contains Vitamins D2, E, B2 and B12 and calcium as shown in the photo. I noticed today that the packaging had changed and thought to myself "I wonder if anything else has?" So I checked. Yes indeed

High White cell and neutrophils
I had a blood test last Thursday, on viewing it said both above normal on the white cell count and neutrophils. I'm still waiting for the others to come back like ferritin, B12, folate, liver function, CRP, thyroid function, vit d, calcium, lipids and U&E's. I have been feeling a bit rubbish but the

Zoplicone and RLS
I take a sleeping pill every 3 or 4 nights to escape from insomnia. I also take gabapentin , 1200 mg ,which does largely quieten my legs. But recently when taking Zoplicone, I wake after 6 or 7 hours of refreshing sleep to get quite a bad attack of RLS. More than I ever experience as I don't suffer too

Vitamin D Status & Cancer Mortality
New German study of British data below [1]. I was born on the SW coast of England at latitude 50 degrees. (Edinburgh, Scotland is at 56 degrees.) St. John's in Newfoundland, Canada, is at latitude 47.6 degrees, so one might expect the average Brit to have a much poorer vitamin D status than the

Guidance for RLS
Hi Everyone, I'm new to this forum and am so glad to have found you. I have suffered with RLS for years, and in the past year, it's become pretty severe. I get VERY little sleep. Currently, I'm taking Gabapentin and Magnesium Glycinate, but neither are helping--yet. I did take Carbidopa-Levodopa for

how common is Hypoparathyroidism after TT
hi all. Back again 😬 my endo tells me this is really common and she sees it a lot with the surgeon I’m scheduled to see but that he’s a very good surgeon. Do I need to look into seeing someone else? My endo told me it happens in between 5 and 10 per cent of TTs. She never mentioned the possibility

Please help with advice on Levo dose and vitamin levels.
Hello.I was started on Levo at 75mg about 10 days ago. My doctor wants to do a blood test after 8 weeks. Last time I was given a 2 month trial and because my TSH came down ( they don't care about antibodies so those weren't checked ! ) they took me off the Levo. Now I've gone to a different, much more

MAGNESIUM
Hi, can anyone give me advice on magnesium supplements. I have been taking Magnesium Citrate for a while for Paroxymal atrial fibrillation. Is it better to take Magnesium glycinate instead. Any advice welcome. Many thanks.

Update
Update. Had a phone call from cardiac department today, it was the secretary again who said my consultant said my echo was fine. Phew good news. I asked about my calcium ct scan result and she didn’t know that. I said could she ask my consultant for the result and why did he think I needed an angiogram
