Referred to private Endo - London; advice and recommendations please
Hi all, I have just been referred by the GP to an Endo. I was hoping that someone could privately DM me with recommendations for private endos in central London. I am also wondering whether I could be suffering from Hashimotos hyperthyroid flare ups: To recap; I have hashimotos, and had a hemithyroidectomy

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

Adding calcium in order to strengthen bones
Hi. I have Stage IV Pca and on year 3 with Eligard and Xtandi (age 59)I've had a DEXA scan and my bones are not in the best shape due to Eligard. Getting zolendronic acid every 4 months I've just had a heart scan, and it seem like one of the blood vessels are starting to calcify. The doctors want me

Help with blood test results and symptoms please
Hi, I have hashimotos, and had a hemithyroidectomy just before Xmas. Before the operation I had been described as sub-clinical hypothyroid, with a TSH of around 2. Since the operation I been suffering from pins and needles and a feeling of slight breathlessness, which mostly comes on in the evening

calcium supplement
I am wandering if it will be better for me to take a low dose calcium supplement, I take 20mg of pantoprazole a day and that might stop me for absorbing calcium, I am getting aches in my back goes off with rest, I also have locally advanced prostate cancer but that's under control at the moment but

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

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

Combined supplements
Hi, does anyone have experience of taking a supplement that contains Vit D3, Vit K2, calcium, copper, magnesium, manganese, selenium, zinc and boron? It seems a nice option just taking one tablet a day, but is it actually more advisable to take things separately?

Pain everywhere.
I've been 10+ yrs searching for answers. I had some bladder problems in 2013. Doctors did surgery. I almost died. Apparently they told me my blood vessels looked funny. They didn't know if they "knicked " me or what but I lost 8 pints of blood very quickly. They barely got me transfusion in time. I chalked

Prednisolone and osteopenia
Hi I had a Dex scan a few weeks ago and my bone density showed I have osteopenia, I was given calcium and vitamin D tablets to take twice a day. So would it help if I drank milk to help to augment this as I don't have milk normally but have yogurt. Thank you in advance for any replies. Peter.

Multi vitamins - at last some recognition
Hi everyone, I was pleased to see this today - as so many 'authorities' have repeatedly put down the use of multi vitamins as being a waste of money - here is a quite extensive study showing the opposite. I used to see a very highly acclaimed consultant who said exactly the same to me and would test

Wake up please and you will understand.
Last year I was a mess, my ocd hit high levels but alot of that was because I came off valium cold turkey and it gave me a massive physical and psychological major major battle, that breakdown taught me alot my friends and I hope this will serve you well. I suffered and still do at times when stressed

Getting tested after taking any supplements...

How I felt was gradual at first and more like fatigue and gastic upsets, intermittent mild tingling, over the last few years, but last year my

Vitamin D3 Necessity?
Hi all, I'm a GCA patient, having started at 60 MG in AUG 2022. I'm down to 12.5 MG today. I have felt lousy in so many respects including fatigue, vision issues, and GI problems since day 1. When the rheumy put me on Alendronic Acid a month of so ago, that was the "last straw." It made me feel

Very happy to hit 2 year mark from last AFIB incident. I was 48 when I had my first episode which terrified me, and the second episode was 9 months later. Both resolved on their own. I started working on lifestyle changes from the first incident. I focused on dropping milk from my diet and keeping
