forteo terrosa pen
there are few if any videos on administrating a dose of forteo. what's the volume of a single dose? are all the doses stored within the pen? it's it similar to insulin injecting?, because Mum will need to be shown m surely the nurses at the GP's will be able to do demonstrate and do the first shot

prolia and forteo at the same time
well last week Mum's endo suggested forteo for 6-18mth, after 6 years prolia, then back to prolia. this was motivated due to possible vertebra fracture, he didn't push it, said to look it up, so i did, i was sort of keen for change, though thinking to stick to what you know, Mum also not keen on

Living with glaucoma
Hi All I've had glaucoma and Uveitis in both eyes for many years and have had numerous procedures and drains put in both eyes like many other glaucoma patients , I was told yesterday that a cornea transplant is not viable now because of the complications with my eye and that all they can do is monitor

A cross in the sand
Does anyone else find this explanation helpful -- ? Imagine yourself sitting on the beach and you draw a cross in the sand like an 'x'. The first stroke represents your dopamine deficiency and the second stroke you draw several times as it represents an overactive adrenal response subsequent to the HABIT

Forteo & kidney stones
I recently had kidney stone surgery, where each kidney was full of large kidney stones (too large to pass naturally, which was the reason for the surgery). In January I completed 2 years of Forteo injections, and wonder if the cause of all of those kidney stones were caused by the Forteo injections

The risk of doing nothing
, I have a cousin who is 93. She was diagnosed with osteoporosis many years ago started Fosamax and because of some side effects stopped taking the medication.

AFTER FORTEO
Has anyone taken Fosamax after Forteo with good results instead of going on Prolia? Also, has anyone taken Prolia and not have side effects? all we hear are the horror stories, there must be some good stories. Is it because people who are doing well don’t go on the website?

Severe Osteoporosis - Understanding the scan report and treatment
As a WF, age 60 - the last several years have seen some big health scares / diagnoses: FYI: After a torn shoulder rotator cuff injury in Oct 2022 and PT making the pain worse, my orthopedic Dr finally suggested an MRI. Results did not have good news. He then suggested a surgical repair with "bone

Hylo Forte or Carbomer Gel?
I have been using hypromellose eye drops for a while because, particularly from Spring to autumn, I have itchy, gritty, dry eyes. This year they're worse than ever making my vision very blurred and no amount of hypromellose will fix it. Last week I went to get my eyes tested, thinking the blurred vision

#1: The Start
Following the example of Clarebear I've decided to document my thyroid-adrenal journey on here in hopes it'll keep me accountable, and also may serve some after me. After a long, complicated history of no diagnosis, followed by lithium treatment, then prolonged time spent on T4 with no improvement,

Eye watering
I had my acoustic neuroma surgery in 2018. I have been using Hylo Forte eye drops to keep my eye moist. Surgery was performed on right side and my right eye has always been good. But from past two days that eye is constantly watering. Does anyone know why?

Vitamin D & tolerating thyroid medication
Hello, Thanks so much for your time in reading my post, I would really appreciate any/all opinions on this. I am currently investigating why, ever since I crashed from 2 years of Keto, I can't tolerate thyroid medication. I have discovered I have extremely low adrenal function and am now treating

DHEA (& Cortisol)
Hello, I received these results today. I would appreciate it so much if someone could give me a steer on the DHEA aspect. I understand cortisol very well and clearly I have some form of adrenal insufficiency. I have 2 questions - 1. Do you think I need hydrocortisone from these results or can I
