My story is a long one-I developed a squint and then mono-occularism around 5yrs otherwise fit and healthy though shy, quiet but determined. At the age of 13 I felt like someone had switched me on or woken me up but by 15 I had my first allergic response to food-Hovis wheat germ bread. I became muscular

PMR with type 2 diabetes
I had type two diabetes before I was diagnosed with PMR and I think this is why my GP wants me to get down as quickly as possible from prednisolone as it affects my blood sugar level. For the last three months I have been going up and down because I just cannot seem to get rid of the pain. I got as

Wasting—losing muscle mass
I have lost almost 30 lbs since Nov, but I recently learned only 11 pounds were fat. My lower arms and legs are skin and bone at 146 lbs. Am on diabetes meds, and just got off Mounjaro. I am tapering steroids (arms and legs good and bruised). But I understand steroids can cause wasting. Any

where to go from here
I started t3 a month ago first 2 weeks 2.5 mornings only which I definitely believe gave me more stamina and energy and then after 2 weeks added in a second afternoon 2.5, - im not sure if this made much difference, perhaps as first was going from nothing to something and this was just a small increase

Diep Flap Procedure Question
Hi, I'm a breast cancer survivor and I had a double mastectomy. It is planned that I'm going to have the Diep flap procedure and I was wondering if anyone could advise me on how weight gain and loss affect the body after this procedure? Thanks

Is going gluten free worth it and achievable?
Hi, lots of times I see advice here to go gluten free. Be really interested to hear what people think. Is it’s really worth it and is it achievable? At the moment I’m far from gluten free. I love wholewheat pasta and sourdough. I tested negative for celiac disease but my genes were analyzed as part

T3 affects of different manufacturers
After many years on Teva 60mcgs daily I am trying to reduce the dose to 55mcgs due to increased bowel activity! The GP prescribed 2x20 Teva, 10 Morningside and 5 Viatris. I feel ok except that I have a burning sensation in my digestive system which would suggest an excipient in the new T3 may be an issue

Tapering well so far.
Down to 8 mgs methylpred. No probs so far. Going down to 6 tomorrow. I realize that this is more of a drop than recommended. I can raise and use both arms and hips haven’t frozen. Can sleep. Also, good news on queasiness from diabetes meds. Changed to Mounjaro from Ozempic. Queasiness less
