So many questions ??
I am 71 years old, weigh 8 stone, generally fit and healthy. I have probably had RLS for many years causing the occasional sleepless night or restless evening in the chair. I had my first prolonged nighttime episode last November which lasted a few nights. Nothing since except tingling in my left leg

Leg cramps at night
I'm on my 3rd different statin due to very painful cramps. Currently on 20mcg of Rosuvastatin which has been fairly ok until recently. I'm now getting excruciating cramps in calves and toes at night.Never known pain like it!I'm taking magnesium tablets as read that could help but nothing really has improved

Feeling Low Today
Hi Guys....just need to get this stuff out of my brain (again). Been working to taper off Clorazepam for a couple of weeks and apparently tapered too much a couple of days ago.....and it wasn't pretty. There are reasons we need to go slow!!! Even though I added the amount back for now, I don't

Latest bloods - asking for your expert opinions before I see the GP :)
In February my TSH done by NHS was 0.19 but I'd been feeling increasingly worse again so my dose was increased to 100mg. The doc didn't really think that was the problem and thought it wouldn't help but I thought it was worth a try. I'd last felt really great at about 0.13ish, several months earlier

Where can I get my mineral levels tested?
I test bloods, including vitamins and iron, regularly. But I have no idea what my zinc and magnesium etc. levels are. Is there a home test kit I can use that doesn't cost the earth?

Am I hypothyroid?
I’m looking for some guidance/information as I haven’t been able to get much clarity from my GP and endocrinologist. I started having all the usual hypo symptoms about 2 years ago; feeling cold, fatigued, weight gain, low moods, brittle hair and nails, skin itching, night sweats, tinnitus, aching joints

Myoglobin
I think i over done my muscles on left side from the waist down, did far too much walking and walking on uneven surfaces and diving in sand dunes while on uk holiday. I came home and 4 days later it looked like my urine had turned into ribena, doctors diagnoised myoglobin and said its caused from damaged

waiting for the result of a 24 urine test as possible hypercalcaemia
I am waiting for the result of a 24 hour urine test. I have previously had above the normal range calcium tests. This has been going on for about a year. I’m guessing that the culprit is lithium but I’m wondering whether steroids can cause this ?

blood test - missing bits
HI All The saga of my attempts to get a full test has been achieved by paying 35 quid for a blood draw after 2 failed attempts with finger pricks. Thyroxine stuff all came out in the results first time and has been discussed separately so am only looking for comments on the items below : ferritin

19 struggling with ectopics
Hi all, I just wanted to come on here for a bit of advice or just to share what I’ve been struggling with recently, I’ve struggled with ectopic beats for over a year now, and they have been manageable as they have predominantly been quite spread out or predictable, and the only bad episodes happening

meds and arrhythmia
hello to you all I have recently been prescribed chewable calcium and vit D3 tablets which I take twice a day. I started them yesterday and within an hour my heart was all over the place. One minute my pulse/heart rate was 46 and then it went up to 100. I felt out of sorts and wondered if it was coincidental

Magnesium recommendations
I have used the better you sprays for a while and they are helpful, but dry my skin out over time. I tried magnesium citrate from Holland and Barrett but the pills are uncomfortable to swallow and didn't seem to help. I then tried the vita biotics brand which contains dihydroxide, and they are great

SOY ISOFLAVONES
Has anyone had any positive affects from taking soy isoflavones or other isoflavones for bone density? I see much research that shows Dairy products, especially milk actually makes your bone density worse due to the effects of acid factors of it. That we actually do not need dairy as adults and should
