My adrenals are disappointing me.

shot and had me test my blood sugars. These were often low despite good efforts to eat properly. Then my IBS hit and I feel terrible: frequently dizzy and just out of sorts. I have no symptoms at all of PMR.

Information about REMS Echolight scan for osteoporosis
Does anyone have experience with this new type of bone scan that measures both bone density and bone quality? It has been used in Europe but is relatively new to the US. I am interested in this because I have very low DEXA scores in my spine -4.1 and hip -2.8. No fractures to date but my doctor would

Thankyou
After joining this group last week I got the best advice on what eye drops to use after months of torture. Ordered hylo forte and the relief is immense. Had 6 tubes of blood taken today at drs to test for autoimmune disease and many other things. I know it will take time. But a huge Thankyou for eye

Micronutrients used in study protocol reversed my osteoporosis though taking prednisone for PMR
After I couldn’t tolerate AA and Forteo landed me in hospital for shortness of breath I researched a study protocol used in Canada which had good results. This was the COMB protocol using micronutrients: It used: fish oil, K2, D3 and strontium Citrate. I followed this for only a year and half because

Long running prescription issues
I've had problems getting my drops for the last year, can get all my other meds with no problems, but recently it's getting really bad, I should get 10ml Dorzolomide& Timolol monthly, the last 2 scripts had given me 5ml, enough for 2 weeks, also it appears that GP surgery have over ruled the eye hospital

New here!
I was referred here from a fb group. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism last year, I also have low adrenals. I assume those work together? I am wondering which doctor to choose next or just go it alone? I have had insomnia for about 12 years now. It gets especially bad around my monthly menses. I

Prolia vs. alternative vs. Forteo?
Hi, I'm new to this forum and wondered if anyone had any advice. I've got quite bad osteoporosis in my spine (-3.7 T score), and I have osteopenia in my hips. I'm 59, have always been quite thin and not terribly athletic, and lactose intolerant. No fractures yet. The endocrinologist has prescribed
