Recent results following increase in Levothyroxine dose.Anything of note?
HiFollowing advice on the forum I asked GP for screening for Vit D etc at my recent review of increased dose. I have generalised osteoarthritis and a family rich in autoimmune diseases. Please see my results. The only comment made by GP is that Vit D a bit low and to take over the counter supplement.

AF Medications
I have had AF for a few months now, I have also attended A & E four times recently with palpations and chest pains. Each time they have given me either, sometimes both, potassium or magnesium intravenously. I have also had a kidney transplant (4 years ago). They cannot give me any more medication

Hashimoto's and insomnia
Anyone else struggles with insomnia especially whilst in a flare-up? My doctor has said that insomnia isn't a typical symptom of Hashimoto's hypothyroidism and will only prescribe drowsy antihistamines to help me sleep. Does anyone have any tips or supplements to help with this? I've tried sleep hygiene

No meds….yet
Hi New to this forum and RLS. Insomnia is crippling me and affecting everything from weight gain to cognitive abilities. I am desperately seeking sleep. GP has prescribed Quinine but little affect. Also on iron tablets, B12, Vit D, Magnesium. Next stop Ropinole. I’m scared to take this as there appears

THANK YOU 🙏
Thank you to everyone that has helped with with my query around Magnesium Taurate. It appears Ethical Nutrition is recommended by Dr Gupta and is a lot cheaper than others I looked at. I thought it might be helpful to attach nutritional information to see what we’re getting! Thank you all.

Update on Spinal nerve block
In the past, I asked if others had the spinal radio-frequency ablation procedure for back pain. I had bad back pain and was considering doing it and wonder if anyone had issues with it. Well, I'm happy to report that I had the procedure yesterday and have experienced immediate pain relief. . I have

Is this PMR?
Hello I'm new to this site and to the world of PMR. Hoping to get some guidance from this lovely community. My GP has diagnosed me with PMR at 42 and I'm not entirely convinced as I don't fit the symptoms of aches and stiffness in the shoulders and hips. This all started in March 23 where I woke

New to this group
Hi all,I have hashimotos and hypothyroidism and have been a member on the thyroid forum for a while. It's been suggested I post on here for some interpretation of some bloods. I have been tested for PA but was told it was normal, but I'm sceptical given what I've read and what I'm experiencing. Apologies

Update on bloods
Hi all, I posted a couple of weeks ago as my blood results had dropped slightly from the previous lot 6 months ago and I am feel pretty rotten. GP wouldn't up my levo from 100 as results were "normal"......starting to despise that word!! She did however agree to some vitamin tests and T3 (which she

B1 therapy
After trying 500mg of B1 for about 2wks, I decided to stop and instead try a B complex and magnesium for a while before starting back on B1. I’ve now been taking a B complex every day that has 50mg of B1 and 2mg of B6, along with an extended release capsule of 250mg magnesium every 3 days. I’ve been

Distribution of medication and supplements throughout the day.
In my efforts to optimise the effect of C/L medication and oral supplements, I would like advice on this, to promote positive drug / supplements interactions if possible and to prevent any negative interactions. For example, I am familiar with the interaction carbidopa <> B6, but what is the best time

On the injury couch…😕
“Hello, old friend!”🤣 I haven’t been here for a long while actually but over the past week I have picked up a niggle that has stopped me running. I’m afraid I blame it on my new strength and conditioning routine - you know, that stuff we so often ignore that’s supposed to make us stronger runners!🤣

MAGNESIUM TAURATE
I was reading an article by Dr Gupta whereby he recommended magnesium taurate for those of us suffering from atrial fibrillation. His recommended dose was 125 mg twice a day. This seems hard to find in a tablet as most of them are much more than this. Any recommendations where I can find this or do

CHAD VASc
Last year on a visit to my EP he informed me that at the age of 64 and with a CHAD VASc score of 1 that anti coagulants were not necessary. However as I turn 65 then my score would go to 0 which then does require Anti-c . I am taking Flecainide, bisoprolol along with Magnesium and I am in good health

PTH and aggressive PCa? I need guidance
Hello, everyone! I can really use some guidance. My husband’s PTH (Parathyroid hormone) has been elevated since his Dx (pre & post treatments) Being that his blood calcium is at normal levels, his MO ruled out Secondary Hyperparathyroidism, and moved on. But that never sat right with me. Why the elevated

Good resources regarding vagal AFIB?
Does anyone have any good resources (articles, YouTube videos) directed to vagally-mediated AFIB (the type that occurs after a large meal or while sleeping)? I believe my AFIB was triggered by endurance athletics (I used to do long bike rides and probably overdid it and stressed my body too much).
