Advice on Blood results please?
Hi, I'm not diagnosed with any thyroid problems but have had numerous blood tests over the last 4 years because of severe menopause symptoms that have not responded to HRT. Would you be able to have a look and see what you think please? I have also included some of the vitamins tested.

Blood pressure meds and RL
I have been put onto blood pressure medication, as my BP is 'dangerously' high. So far I've taken Losinipril, Perindropil, Propranolol, then moved to another type Doxazosin, a calcium channel blocker All of them have aggravated restless legs, to such an extent that I haven't slept for weeks, other than

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

Strontium citrate
I was diagnosed with osteoporosis 10 years ago. I am now 73. I have been taking v D and calcium/magnesium and walking and gardening. But I have continued to loose BMD. I have not gone on any medication because I am reluctant to take a drug that interferes with the body's natural bone remodelling process

Problems, problems, problems
I take Sinamet, Losartan, and Quietapine before I go to sleep, and after 2 or 3 hours, I wake up and realize that I have Parkinson's, which I forgot while I was sleeping. I'm now awake and in the dark, and the fears of everything threatening me begin to affect me. So I turn on the light, go into

Newbie and confused. Functional B12 deficiency?
Hi everyone, I am new here but I have been a member of the thyroid forum for many years. I've also just joined the Sjogren's and the lupus groups because some of my symptoms could be attributed to these though I have no diagnoses, and the Changing Faces group for my rhinophyma.

Scared. Mind is racing. Mom needs heart surgery.
I've posted before kind of on this topic but since I've become more agoraphobic and neurotic and shut down and hiding in my house. My mom needs heart surgery. She is my best friend. She is 82. I am 47. I don't have a partner or kids. I have a brother. He helps sometimes but he isn't completely emotionally

New to PMR
Hi everyone -- I am new here and have had PMR for about five months now. I can't help wondering if the last Covid vaccine I received may have possibly triggered it, since my symptoms started less than a month after that. (I had already had five previous Covid vaccines.) I was also going through a period
