Does a cortisone shot in the knee help your whole body with RA symptoms, or is it just my medicine starting to help me?
I went to get my knee drained of fluid last week and the doctor also gave me a
cortisone
shot in the knee. That night I also started my first medicine for RA (hydroxychloroquine- was just diagnosed this month). The next morning I was completely symptom free and have been for a week now.

Latest Blood results show true TSH of 23.43(+) miu/l. Any insights please, as five weeks previously it was 0.07(-)
The other approach is the use of hydro-
cortisone
(10mg tablets). Half a tablet, 3 or 4 times a day is usual, later to be increased if required.

Melatonin - seems like a miracle cure, but is it?
I've got shot adrenals glands, low cortisol all day, and when I'm in a crash, as I am at the moment, I sleep terribly. I've had some melatonin for ages, and tried about 1mg the other night. I slept like a baby and felt great the next day, no fatigue or aches and pains. I didn't take it last night and

I need help with my blood test results
Hi, I've been suffering from low testosterone since 20. I'm 33 now and I had a lot tested by the endocrinologist. My testosterone came back within normal limits but it was in the lower range. I don't know how to interpret my estrodial levels because there is no range. I'm trying to get a six pack and

Does amlodipine help with Raynauds symptoms? I do take blood pressure medicine Losartan but have been on for years might change meds.
Also, notice a fine rash on several toes as my feet warm up and have treated with
cortisone
and antifungal with no change for months. Is this just part of Raynaud's?

Has anyone had experience of using 1% hydrocortisone cream for treating low cortisol?
I have just received my adrenal saliva test results from Dr Myhill. I have low cortisol and she has recommended I use hydrocortisone cream to treat. I would be interested to hear from anyone who has treated their adrenal issues by this method with any advice if pos. Also if not treated in this way

Stomach ulcers ? LOW or HIGH stomach acid? Would ACV help?
Hi My son, 30, has had a coeliac test endoscopy today duye to having "negative TTG antibodies". He has to wait 2 weeks for his results. During the investigation he was told he has 3 x 2mm stomach ulcers beginning near the lower valve in the stomach. They took 3 biopsies from the duodenum and stomach

How long does T3 take to enter your cells?
I have just swopped over to T3 on Dr P's advice. I don't think I can take more than quarter of a tablet (6.25) because of adrenal issues. But now trying to assess symptoms - sudden palpitations, thumping heart sensation and tremors - which last about 20 mins and start about 90 minutes after taking T3
