post cholecystectomy issues
I had my gallbladder out (gallstones) 10 years ago and for the first 5 or so years I had no problems whatsoever, life returned to normal. Then I started getting these weird night time vomiting events. Always seemed to be woken between 2 and 3am with a heavy pressure in my stomach/gut, not feeling nauseas

Tinnitus and White Noise
Over the last 3 years my Tinnitus has deteriorated rapidly. It is constant and I have found one thing that makes me sleep at night is WhiteNoise on YouTube. Highly recommendable. I am getting hearing aids which the Audiologist hopes will reduce my Tinnitus. Meanwhile, it's really troublesome and affects

New to tinnitus and frightened
Hi everyone, I'm new to tinnitus, just 3 weeks in but have already been told my hearing is fine and there's no problems with my ears by an audiologist. I recently went through a stressful period at work followed by my mum being rushed into hospital and being told out of the blue that she only had days

Notes for upcoming GP appointment
Apologies as this is a long read 🙃 I've got a GP appointment booked for 9th May, with a doctor I've not seen before and who is relatively new to the practice. I'm wanting to ask for a Rheumatology referral and have written the below out as a crib sheet for me to take in. I'd appreciate any thoughts

Another cause of Pernicious Anaemia?
We know that certain gastric operations cause Pernicious Anaemia and therefore lifelong b12 injections are required . But what I’ve never seen mentioned is the possibility of radiotherapy cancer treatment in the region of the stomach that contains the parietal cells , causing Pernicious Anaemia . Surely

Is it harmful to take Vitamin D & not Vitamin K?

Blood thinning jab that won’t cause internal bleeding
In the Health section of the Mail last November I read about a new injection Abelacimab which in a head to head trial caused 81% fewer major bleeding incidents.Warfarin is known to be a risk for bleeding in 16% of patients. I no longer attend a clinic, it was always Rheumatology, but I guess I was deemed

I have just started with my afib journey (trek?). My GP told me that my best blood-thinner choices were Coumadin, Xarelto, and Eliquis. I did my research, and, right or wrong, I chose Eliquis, even knowing its expense. (I have no insurance, thus I paid a lot of money to buy my first bottle of pills

L-tyrosine causes sebaceous hyperplasia?
I take a hypothyroidm supliment that has L-tyrosine. Since I take it I got this acne called sabeceous hyperplasia all over my face and on my boob and under it. I read that L-tyrosine increases testosterone, which leads to PCOS (which I have) and sebaceous hyperplacia. Did anyone experience this? How
