Numbers high again
Good morning all. I had blood work done in April and my numbers were in the normal range, on the high side, but normal. I just had blood work done again and my numbers are all high again. Doc took me off Lipitor and put me on Crestor. My weight is down 15 lbs since the last appointment. No side effects

D3/cholecalciferol and fish oil and possibly adverse effects
I have just recently learned that some brands of fish oil capsules contain significant levels of D3 . I was taking as many as four or five capsules daily and each contained 2000 units of D3 . And I was experiencing increased leg weakness which I now suppose my calciferol levels were possibly higher

Waiting (not so) patiently.
I’ve decided that with all the medical reviews, blood tests, chuff checks and period monitoring that comes with IVF they seem to have overlooked one extremely vital question when you’re being assessed - “Do you have the patience of a f**king saint?” Because my GOSH do you need it. We’re due to start

Hello all I’ve read a few posts and researched a little and am still none the wiser on flaxseed oil!

LCHF Diet-- Are we eating the Healthy fats??
As a part of LCHF diet , we aim at eating 60-70% of our daily calories from Fat.

What is 'normal' bleeding during a cycle that used a castor oil pack?
I've been TTC naturally for the past couple of months and decided this cycle to try a
castor
oil
pack. I only applied this twice after bleeding and stopped before I got a positive opk which was on the 12th August.

Lucentis injection but no bleed?
Hello! I received a Lucentis injection in August, but have held off on any additional injections because I was no longer bleeding and I am breastfeeding. I am in the process of weaning now, and my retina specialist has discussed getting another injection just for additional protection. Has anyone else
