Left side gut pain above and left of the belly button with belching and gas
I have a scope done by a gi doctor 2 years ago. Result was mild gastritis and biopsy came back fine. I fought pain, bloating, and belching for almost a year straight every day. Gi dr had me do a breathe test and i failed it for bacteria. I took meds every other 2 weeks for 2 months. Everything finally

Advice needed on thyroxine management
I am hoping someone can advise me about my thyroxine dose. Here's a little background: In September 2023, I was underweight and having trouble gaining weight and suffering from anxiety. I had been on 75mcg of levothyroxine daily for an underactive thyroid. I had recently developed pins and needles

ANyone taking Prolia for osteoporosis?
Hi! I have been dealing with osteoporosis for more than 20 years and taken all the pills and Forteo shots. I have Lupus, Hyperparathyroidisn, Low Vitamin D and low body mass that all contribute to the problem. Unfortunately, it has continues to get worse. I have been hesitant to take Prolia as it will

Prednisone for treatment of AIG
I've just been started on Prednisone or Prednisolone, immunosuppressant steroids, for treatment of Autoimmune Gastritis/autoimmune PA. This has recently, within the last few years been shown to possibly heal AIG, although not entirely cure. It is also used to prevention immune system rejection of organ

Foraminotomy
has anybody had a posterior endoscopic foraminotomy? In particular for bone spurs. I could be looking at this surgery once injections have been exhausted. Would be interested in hearing from people about how they found it, did it work, and crucially what was your post op experience like, pain levels,

sulfasalazine side effects
Hi. I am on sulfasalazine for mixed connective tissue disease (similar to rheumatoid arthritis and lupus), which I started taking again after many years of my disease being in remission. I was initially on sulfasalazine 10 years ago and it is a horrid medication. Was, and am again, terribly dizzy

Hi everyone, I’m looking for any information about bloods and Thyroid please. I was diagnosed in 2017 with chronic pain, chronic fatigue and osteoarthritis. I have tried all pain medications the NHS has, and nothing touches the pain. I have had horrendous pain in my feet, left one for over a year,

updated journey
I’m getting so frustrated with this underactive thyroid. My only symptom before I was diagnosed again was unexplained weight gain. I had put on half a stone but hadn’t changed any habits. After starting on levothyroxine I put on another 2 stone. This may have been made worse due to all my joints seizing

Eliquis and surgery
I will have to go off my Eliquis for several days prior to having surgery on one of my eyes. I am terrified that I may go into AF while off it. Has anyone had to go off their anticoagulant for surgery and had AF without it causing a stroke?

Short episode for tonight. Mum's life has not always followed a smooth course and she has never been one to complain. It was only after several months of poor vision that she finally went to the optician only to discover too late that she had a badly detached retina. She was quickly admitted to hospital

low stomach acid
I believe that I have low stomach acid. I can’t find old posts about this, but I know it’s quite common among hypothyroid people. So I’m wondering if anyone has had this, and found a cure for it. I’m currently taking Betain HCL with pepsin, and it’s helping. However, I’m hoping I don’t have to take

Potential biochemical recurrence post radical prostatectomy, looking for perspective on the outcomes and treatments.
63-year old Male, months shy of 5-year mark of the radical prostatectomy, showed PSA of .08 in January then .07 in March. Originally had up to Gleason 9’s. I know it’s not technically a recurrence until .2, and doubling time is the next variable to look out for. But what else should we keep in mind
