That stands for Too Weird for Words. Which nostril is dominant varies throughout the day. Blood flow is increased or decreased in the nostril regulating the flow. That is measurable and the measurement repeatable and thus ends the science and the pseudoscience begins. My pseudoscience led me to

I’ve been on Methatrexate long term and tolerating it well thankfully, I’ve just recently started taking a multivitamin/mineral and that’s the only other thing I take (apart from folic acid ) I’m now curious to know what others who are on Methatrexate take and is there anything that’s best avoided?

Blood test results regarding magnesium - thank you everyone for advice
I posted previously about my mum’s anxiety and how she has been struggling with it for months now. After a lot of advice from this group, I requested that the GP checks her magnesium and thyroid so thank you to everyone who advised me to get this checked . Her results have shown that thyroid is fine.

Can a change in batch be the reason my thyroid hormones have dropped so low?
I was on 100mcg a day at the end of November and my results were TSH - 0.011 (0.27-4.2) Free T4 - 21.6 (12-22) (96%) Free T3 - 5.8 (3.1-6.8) ((73%) I thought the T4 was a bit high and I was having some mild palpitations so I reduced to 4 Days 75 mcg and 3 days 100mcg. After 7 weeks I retested

Update after Endo
Good morning, I'm just writing this as an update to anyone who may be interested in my seemingly-odd case... My Endo appointment went well. (Or so I thought but if you're learning from this post, please read the comments!) She believes I have Graves disease, despite the antibodies indicating Hashimotos

NAC and Thyroid Antibodies
Currently hypothyroid, high TgAB, TPO and TSI normal. Am on 600mcg of levothyroxine across the week. Has anyone had success in reducing thyroid antibodies by taking NAC? What other supplements do you take to support thyroid health besides vit D, iron, B12, Folate? These are already under control

Considering Conception & Ideal Thyroid Levels
Hi all. I finally saw an endocrinologist and they suggested increasing thyroxine dose by 20% when doing an embryo transfer to ensure adequate thyroxine. I asked about FT3 and FT4 levels but they were only interested in TSH which didn’t make sense given it only signals thyroid production and isn’t a thyroid

Taking Biotin
Hello, As part of my daily suppliment intake I take the full range of B vitamins (B1-12), which includes 50mcg biotin. As I understand it, this is less than the 20mg which would affect my T4 levels, is that right? And at this dosage do I still need to stop taking this particular suppliment 2 days

Pink Tribe/Vita Blossom B12 complex v Health Leads
For months I’ve been taking PT or VB but decided to try Health Leads on a recommendation but guess what(?!!), my urine has taken on that bright yellow colour and familiar odour of the types of B12 product I’d stopped taking. Does this mean it’s an inferior product and I’m just peeing it down the loo

Extremely weak legs
Morning everyone, I have fibromyalgia and osteoarthritis in most joints in my body. Since Christmas I have had extremely weak legs to the point now that even going from my chair to the bathroom I’m near collapsing. My legs go very wobbly and start to shake then my whole body shakes and I get breathless

Scoliosis caused by Lipoma on Spine?
Some years ago I had a minor fall, not even a fall really. The back of an office chair gave way and I fell almost horizontally, then pulled myself back up. That night I found a small round lump a couple of inches away from my spine in the large muscle in my mid-back. I thought it was probably a lipoma
