Deep heat, deep freeze, or massage oil?
I've been massaging my legs for 1-2 min each night before bed, and it seems to help a bit. What has your experience been? Also, have you tried something like deep heat or deep freeze, and how did that go?

Chronic back pain and pain relief?
Hi all Looking for some advice re pain killers for awful lower backache. I had a stent fitted in my LAD a year ago and on the usual meds ie Ticagrelor, Atorvastatin, Aspirin. Everything I read it seems I shouldn’t take ibuprofen only paracetamol which doesn’t touch the pain. Been seeing an osteopath

Spices?
I find that following a gluten free diet is very difficult because I have always had a love for spicy foods, but to make up for not going out to eat, or buying takeaways, we always cook our meat, fish, and vegetables with plenty of spices added. But I’m still getting Coeliac symptoms like bloating,

Hello! Can anyone help me with my blood test results please? My symptoms are tiredness, weight gain, brain fog, difficulty forming sentences, heart palpitations, joint pain, inflamed gallbladder. I’ve described my symptoms to the GP and have been dismissed three times now, and can’t afford to pay for

I started almost a year ago with this diagnosis, unfortunately. I had biopsies in February to confirm cirrhosis.
Since then I dropped 40 pounds, changed to low carb, walk a lot, drink coffee, take asparagus extract, milk thistle, vitamin e. Collagen, and Actos. Was hoping for lower number, but progress is progress! Down to NASH 3 and 33% of my liver. Not sure what the numbers on the right mean?? I weigh 125

I haven’t posted in a while, but wanted everyone to know I had my DBS surgery .
It was a lot all at once but so far with the programming everything is going well. Definitely taking less meds.

Putting weight on safely
I’ve always been underweight but I’ve lost a little more recently and want to put it back on. I have a gluten free diet, fairly healthy diet (but love crisps 😂) don’t like sweet stuff. Anyone have advice on this? Any good protein mixes/shakes recommended? Thanks x
