Going gluten free with hashimotos
hi - I have hashimotos and have had it for 15 years. I am on levothyroxine 125mcg/100mcg alternate days. Generally I have been well on this regime. What I am enquiring about is the hashimotos and coeliac connection. I have not had any gut problems with my underactive thyroid until now - although last

DBS
Hello! Has anyone done DBS? Would be curious to know how it went, if things got better and for how long, etc. Any post surgery info would be super helpful! Thank you!

Brain Death and recovery with Deep Brain Stimulation
In March 1983 I was a victim of a Hit and deny responsibility attack by an insane motorist who was driving way too fast. My brain apparently had died and the NHS staff at Plymouth Freedom Fields hospital were about to turn off the life support machine. Only thanks to the intervention of my loving parents

Can gluten-free diet reduce need for Levothyroxine or dose of Levo?
Hello I’ve heard a lot from this group about the importance of GF diet which I have been following for the last 5 weeks. I was wondering what effect it could have on hypothyroid and TSH etc? Has anyone measured the effect ? I know Yoga can help with thyroid activity - sadly I haven’t had the energy

Capsicum cream
I’m on holiday down in Cornwall at the moment and nipped in to a Herbery while out searching for King Arthur today (as you do). I was trying to find some cream to help with the pompholyx eczema which has been extremely bad on my foot this year and has left the skin either dry and flaking or red and sore

Problems with B1
My husband started taking B1 as recommended on this website but had to give it up after three weeks because his health deteriorated. We were abroad on holiday at the time and he fell at least five times, one quite badly busting his nose and lips. When we got home he stopped taking it as Dr Constantini

Interpreting Blood Test Results - Help Needed Please?
Hello, this is the first time I have posted here. I recently visited the doctor due to poor energy levels, achy limbs, dizziness, breathlessness, restless legs etc etc. My GP did loads of blood tests but the only clear red flags were ferritin and Vit D levels. I've been on 400mg of ferrous sulphate

New Boston Scientific DBS machine, anyone tried it?
I've been doing research on the BOSTON SCIENTIFIC DBS machine. 400 people in the US have gotten it installed since Jan. 2018. 4000 in Europe. It sounds pretty interesting - less side effects. I'm a bit scared to get it done. Hoping someone out there has had experience with it. Love to hear about

Mom of triplets, spouse with Parkinson’s
Hi, I literally just found this place. It’s a bit of a relief. I’m in a place in my mind that is confusing, because I can’t predict what’s going to happen next, I can’t figure out if it’s him or the disease. One day it’s one thing, then a couple days later it’ll be something else. He’s had this disease

Hysterectomy at 38
Hi there, I’m new to this so forgive me! I’ve had endometriosis probably since I started my periods at 13. I was put on the pill at 18 for “heavy periods”. At 28 I came off the pill and symptoms began in earnest. Eventually I had a laparoscopy to diagnose it but no treatment was offered. I did a gluten
