levothyroxine induced lupus erythematosus?
Hiya, I am fairly new to all this, I have been on Levothryroxine for Hypothyroid (Hashimoto’s disease.) since June. My initial symptoms started after my first covid infection. All was going well until November time when I started to develop a Malar rash in the classic butterfly shape on my face. I don

Running after Retinal tear surgery
Hi everyone, I've had two retinal tears to my right eye in the space of 10 weeks and have had subsequent laser surgery for both tears. With the first tear, I waited at least 5 weeks, before I went back to running and had experienced my second tear at work and not whilst running. Has anyone had a retinal

Coagulation markers as independent predictors of prostate cancer aggressiveness.
New study below [1]. Altered coagulation factors are an early event in PCa. Indeed, the first sign of PCa in some men may be a deep vein thrombosis [DVT. The study authors wondered if there were coagulation factors associated with aggressive disease. Only fibrinogen & D-dimer were determined

feeling a bit overwhelmed and lost
In September 2023 I found out by chance that I had apparently been diagnosed with lupus 15-20 years ago. I haven’t been told at any point in this time by a doctor - I found out almost by accident from my GP physio. Since then my current GP has been initially verbally supportive although said they knew

a newby to Lupus
Hello folks, I was only diagnosed with lupus a few days ago, after six months of being told I have stage4 CKD, currently at 21% .Eight years ago I was diagnosed with severe anaemia by my GP, which with retrospect I think was a symptom of Lupus and the cause wasn’t looked into. I don’t have the energy

Treating constipation hasn't affected the wetting accidents
My son is 8 and has never been dry, day or night. I began toilet training him after his third birthday and I thought at first that I must have done it wrong as he could never keep dry. He would have the occasional poo accident too, but his real problem was wees. I took him to GPs and HVs and was either

Progress report
Oh what a fun week I have had. Those of you that followed the tooth saga will be pleased to hear I am nearly at the finishing line and had the fitting for the implant, another 2 weeks and I will have the new tooth. It wasn’t particularly pleasant but it’s done. My next exiting trip was to have a scan

supplements help?
hi there, does anyone with hypothyroidism take supplements that contain kelp? I’ve had conflicting advice on its use/benefits for hypothyroid sufferers. I’m considering starting Thyroid Support with L-tyrosine and Kelp from Cytoplan, but don’t want it to have an adverse effect. Thanks

Article: Why autoimmune disease is more common in women
I thought people might be interested in this article from Nature about why autoimmune diseases are more common in women: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-024-00267-6 "A new explanation for the discrepancy has emerged: a molecular coating typically found on half of a woman’s X chromosomes — but

Some new science on why women are more prone to autoimmune disease
This is an interesting read that suggests the preponderance of systemic autoimmune conditions in women is linked to incomplete X chromosome inactivation. Sadly, it doesnt have any immediate practical implications for us lot, but may be a pointer for the future. https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586

accidental overdose of thyroxine
I’m on 100 mcg thyroxine and the kart prescription they only had 25 mcg so I was taking 4 tablets a day and then the recent prescription was 100 mcg. I’ve just realised today that I’ve been taking 4 100 mcg a day I think for 4 days from how many are gone. In a bit of a panic. I’ve rang 111 and they called
