I would prefer to not go on medication and continue with exercise, diet, calcium / vit D3 - but my bone density continues to

Advice on tablets if liquid thyroxine is still unavailable.
Hi all Having seen my GP today to discuss the lack of liquid thyroxine, she tells me that they cannot just discontinue providing it on the NHS as there are several patients that can't take thyroxine in any other form. It seems it is all cost related and pharmacies don't want to order it and be out

Advice required
My visit to the Endo was again very painful and unhelpful. It is supposed to be one of the best hospitals in the country but yet again failed to be very helpful. Not only that, the dr. got wrong the info re my current medication twice so the level of listening and engagement was not 100%, obviously.

Gentle Iron
The Gentle Iron I ordered came in today. I read all your advice about taking it and thought the advice was to take it at night. To my surprise, it has B12 in it.! B12 is my energy supplement- I can’t take it at night! So, do I take it morning or noon? These supplements and meds are getting very confusing

B12 loading doses
Hey guys, I have recently received 4/6 of my loadind doses of b12. When I reached the 3rd injection, the day after, I started to twitch a lot mostly in my arms and legs but also the odd twitch in my back or neck (doesnt occur very often). I have read about nerves "waking up" so to speak, but the injections

Constipation. A smooth number two makes my day!
Hello T-warriors I have constipation. It is genetic and also, I believe, due to high doses of antibiotics as a child. In essence, my digestion is skewed and it is hard for an easy number two! I also have a bloating belly and feel digestion grew more complicated taking senna tablets long term. senna

Supplements to help thiamin (B1) therapy
I recently saw my neurologist & he wants to put me on Opicapone, as my off times are getting longer, however I would rather like to give the B1 therapy another go before trying this new medication. This time with magnesium & B complex. I need to know when to take these supplements and at what dosage

Magnesium question
Hi all I've been taking the BetterYou D3000+k2 spray since 9th September. I've stopped taking a multivitamin and intend to replace the iron, B vitamins etc on an individual basis over the next months. Originally I wasn't going to replace magnesium as a matter of course but my latest magnesium blood

Any suggestions as to how to stop spotting?
hey We’ve been TTC since November. No luck yet. I’ve got stage 4 endometriosis and I’m constantly spotting each month. Sometimes it’s only 2 or 3 days before period, sometimes it’s 7 days before period. One day it’ll be brown and the next bright red. Every month I know I’m not pregnant because of
