Cod Liver Oil Supplements with Prednisolone
Been on prednisolone (UK) since 01/11/2022. I'm currently taking 3mgs/4mgs on alternate days. 3mgs was too much for me. Anyway if on pred, can we take cod liver oil supplements please? The tablets are ginormous so my husband has bought the liquid. Don't want to start unless it's OK to do so. Any opinions

Low ferritin
I was diagnosed with PV in November 2020. Initially, I had a few phlebotomies to reduce my hematocrit but thankfully I've passed my last three blood tests and haven't had one since January 2023. I take aspirin, a spoonful of cod liver oil and half a tin of grapefruit every day to keep my haematocrit

supplements and lifestyle
Hello guys, I’ve found the advice from you folks to be really helpful since I’ve been on here moaning and groaning so I just wondered if any of you have experienced any measurable improvement in arthritis symptoms using supplements and lifestyle changes? I have just been recommended for TKR surgery

Cod Liver oil in TTC? Mega confused 🫤
Hey! Sooo this is probably really random, but after my last failure and trying to recover from hysteroscopy I’ve been looking at what supplements to take generally and also to improve my lining. One thing that came up was fish oil. I used to take a cod liver oil supplement up until last year when

Weaning down off Pregabalin
A medication error occurred when I went to collect my prescription for Pregabelin, and I am not sure that best way to proceed. For the previous three weeks my GP had me on 25mg daily – the low dose is because she said I am very sensitive to medication. As the 25 mg was not controlling my RLS symptoms

How food additives can perhaps affect us: a chocolate story.
Except that I remember when I was a kid in the 1950s,
Castor
oil
...very nasty stuff indeed -was used to "nuke" the guts in event of constipation! So not friendly for IBS-D!! Just my story, but I thought worthy of mention for anyone who thinks chocolate triggers their IBS.

High-dose DHA and dyskinesia (my experience so far)
I'm always too busy lately to find time to write more than a sentence or two, but since Park Bear posted the info about Dr. Mischley's DHA protocol for dyskinesia, I decided I should make time to share my experience. I've been using mucuna plus Rx'd carbidopa since the end of September 2022 (and mucuna

Weird plugs under scabs
So in 2011 I started getting weird scabs on my face with stretchy plugs underneath once removed the spot would typically close and more would appear in or near the same area. I have read many posts about morgellons and auto immune diseases that could cause this but the problem for me was never identified

Laurie Mischley on Using High DHA Fish Oil to Reduce Levodopa-Induced Dyskinesia (Updated)
https://youtu.be/piDgzpD7oOQ?si=hZfSiPMEqAAg_Kbc Dr Mischley also recommends citicoline. I strongly discourage anyone who is not already using citicoline from starting, because: "patients treated with citicoline experienced a significant worsening 45 days after the medication was discontinued". For

Extreme fatigue. Any solution?
This is wiping me out. Honestly. It tends to start at about 5 pm and lasts for about 2/3 hours. I used to take Whey protein to counter it but this appears to not hit the spot. I’m utterly exhausted when this phenomenon strikes and am wondering if anyone has any ideas? I take B1 daily (Superior Source
