Is PharmaGaba good or bad for PD folks?
HWP is going to try and get off of gabapentin for his chronic pain, have read this can be very difficult. People have posted (on reddit) it is worse than getting of opiods. That sound pretty scary. Online threads have said taper very slowly and take magnesium and b vitamins. Is PharmaGaba beneficial

Anybody with bradycardia (low heart rate)
Shortly after multiple pulmonary emboli in April, 2022, lead to my long-term NSAID usage being stopped, tests lead to diagnosis of PMF with CALR, type 1, mutation. Along with other unpleasant health effects from that time, I have had bradycardia (binodal) very often (almost daily) with rates below 40

zinc supplements
hi everyone, I’m back hoping for advice please. I’ve just seen my GP regarding my latest blood tests. Her answer to most of the results are you’re fine they’re in the normal range. My zinc levels are 12.6 umol/L (11.0-24). Should I take zinc supplements at this level? I’m already taking D3+K2 and my

Anyone tried Tudca?

Same medicine, different brand?
Good evening. I take a calcium channel blocker called Vera-Til SR 120mg, also known as Verapamil however, this particular brand is currently out of stock and I have been given an alternative which is Half Securon SR. My GP has advised that I always stick to one brand (Vera-Til SR) and the pharmacist
