Eliquis and Cortisone
A specialist has recommended a
cortisone
injection into my hip. Has anyone had experience with afib and
cortisone
injections. I am in pain and until now have not taken any medication other than the eliquis. Any comments would be welcome.

Adrenal Gland Results
Hi So I just got my results back to check my adrenals cortisol as I expected the results show low cortisol. This explains why when I was on 40mg of T3 it was making me have hyper like symptoms especially after dinner and at night. Where I used to be perfectly fine on 40/60 before my Dr drastically switched

Cortisone drip
Hi My doc wants to do
cortisone
drips over a period of 3 days for inflammation. Have this horrid condition. Has the characteristics of tendonitis at the base of my thumb joints. Excruciating pain experienced. I'm not sure if
cortisone
in such large doses is good for me..

2 Months since starting taking Armour NDT
hi All Sorry in advance for the long post I have posted a few of my blood test results on here since the beginning of the year after discovering I have a Thyroid issue. Went to see a Private Homeopath who prescribed me Armour NDT. Started on half a grain and have gradually increased to one and a half

Important to consider sleep apnoea as a contributor to thyroid, fatigue and related metabolic troubles
Hi all. This post is as the heading, but first some context. It’s a bit of an essay. I’m no doctor, so this is an account of my own experience – we each have to make our own decisions. The take-away should you conclude it may be relevant is towards the bottom. It’s perhaps old hat by now, I’m a bit

Has anyone had any experience of using 'Forever Living Aloe Vera Gel'when increasing their adrenals.
I had a low cortisol figure a few months back and have been slowly increasing with Nutri Adrenal , but I have been wondering if I should start taking some Aloe Vera Gel, as I took some a few years back when I was struggling with hypothyroid issues and after taking it for a few weeks it really made a

Livitigo and thevothyroxin?
A few years back I noticed mild vitiligo on my hands, which at the time I put down to ill-informed use of
cortisone
cream which I’d been applying too liberally following a rash/infection.

Is it typical for people with GCA/PMR to have low cortisol well still taking 5mg of Prednisone?
I am seeking the wisdom and knowledge of this group to help me understand low cortisol. My blood tests came back as lower than 50 in an afternoon test.

Low cortisol, T3, TSH and steroid injection in hip joint: T3 uptake improved by steroid injection?
Hi All A whole new area for me to understand now (and a long post - sorry!). I am T3 only so my TSH is normally supressed. I have arthritis and bone spurs in my hips and was recommended a steroid injection into the joint of my right hip. This has worked really well so far, but I only had it last

T3 or NDT with poor adrenals?
Just to recap. TT 18months ago. Levo till April this year and straight onto T3 only, after returning a poor conversion of t4 to t3. Having adrenaline rushes which I believe are due to low cortisol (haven't tested yet as I'm on Hyrocortisone for another 2 1/2 weeks) . Was unable to get past 15mcgs of

Has anyone been given a cortisone injection and told if it works then we will give you methotexate?
So after an ultrasound on shoulders showing some swelling she offered me a
cortisone
injection and said come back in 2 weeks and if you have had noticable relief we will start you on methotrexate. If not look at possible neuropathic reasons? Has anyone else experienced this?

Hydrocortisone tablets
Hi, I am trying to find out where I can buy HC 10mg tablets outside UK.

Cortisone injections
I am also having terrible cramps in my hamstrings, few days after taking the last of the three shots. It hurt worse than my knees. Cannot recommend a solution but I pray and bear the pain

Myasthenia Gravis with hypothyroidism.
I have recently been quite unwell. My limbs are so weak I cannot walk far. Sometimes it’s hard to sit up or hold a knife and fork eating my food. I have hypothyroidism for 11years now and low cortisol recently. Each time I take my Levothyroxine within 2 hours my weakness gets much worse. I’m waiting

Reassurance on recent saliva cortisol results ?
Hy all have no one else to bounce thoughts off and have posted before and still digging for answers to the root of my ongoing 'fading away'! Previous thoughts re thyroid results were possible central hypothyroidism so maybe I'm on the right track? Had this private saliva cortisol test in June and
