adrenal fatigue and weaning off support
Sorry if this question has already been asked and answered! I have been on Medrol for the past three and a half years, and would like to get off it. As far as I know, both Medrol, Prednisone and HC suppress your own adrenals even further. The reason I was put on Medrol, rather than HC, was that I tended

Hi I'm new to all this and I've just discovered you wonderful people, I'm a complicated case so any advice would be marvellous!
Hi I'm a 30 year old mother of 1. When I was younger I had severely heavy, painful periods and would have to take 2 days a month off school. I was then put on a pill which made things easier. I suffered a migraine with aura and because I have a heart condition, the doctors said my stroke risk was too

Depo provera
Hello, Has anyone else on the depo-provera shot noticed any changes in their health within a year of being on it? I have a feeling that could be causing me issues too.

Rib cage and RA
Hello there, I'm suffering a huge flare at the minute. The anti tnf drugs, enbrel, humira etc did not work for me. I currently take 15mg of prednisone daily, all in all I take 30 tablets daily including morphine and maxi tram. I have severe pain in my rib cage on the left hand side. It's so painful

estrogen vs progesterone question
I have a question not strictly related to thyroid hormone, but I hope it's ok to post it here anyway as all hormones interact. I have been reading a lot about estrogen dominance, which seems common after age 35 as progesterone production will decrease as much as 75%, but estrogen production only about

I'm confused about tapering off Medrol. I'm at 4 mg now and wake up with a lot of pain from PMR I've had for 1 1/2 years. One rheumi said I should not be in pain before reducing. Another one told me we need to find something else to mitigate the pain because being on steroids too long will cause problems

Diagnosis?
Hi everyone. I've been struggling with the symptoms of endometriosis for ten years now. I've had scans and examinations but they're all clear. I've finally had an appt with a community gynaecologist and just got home. She has prescribed me provera hormones. I had the depo provera injection before but

Medrol vs HC?
Does anyone know the possible benefits of Medrol as compared to HC in someone with adrenal fatigue? When would Medrol be preferred to HC? Has anyone tried both?

Armour or Erfa?

Depo Medrone for Fibromyalgia?
Hi there, I have Fibromyalgia and as soon as the weather turns to winter I have flare after flare with IBS symptoms and it's just such a rough time over winter. I have the pain and symptoms all year but I find it very hard to manage in winter and it gets me very low. I don't have any ongoing support

Seronegative Lupus?
Hi everyone, Am feeling so miserable and sorry for myself which is pathetic when I read how so many of you out there suffer too. Most of the problem is that I have been ill with some sort of mystery autoimmune thing for about forty years or even more. After numerous visits to

Differences in hypothalamic type 2 deiodinase ubiquitination explain localized sensitivity to thyroxine
helvella here! Desperately hoping that diogenes will respond with some explanation of this. My initial take is that if the hypothalamus has greater sensitivity to T4 (than do other cells), then its onward signalling will be affected more by T4. As part of the role of the hypothalamus affects conversion
