Still in the unknown
Hi everyone, I've made two posts before here but I am still having issues and not sure what to do. I don't want to annoy anyone so apologies if this does in anyway. Long story: I've been suffering on/off with light headed / loss of vision(rare) / sweating(sometimes I sweat for no reason under arms) /

Iron tablets and messed up system!
Hi everyone. I have had stomach/digestive issues all my life and was finally diagnosed with IBS some 7 years ago. I’ve had numerous stool tests, scans and an endoscopy over the years but had kind of managed to find medication that would ease stomach cramps and bloating etc. I always used to veer towards

An ironic observation by the first synthesiser of thyroxine
Have been looking through some very old papers about thyroid and found one co-authored by Charles Harington, who was very much to the fore in efficient isolation of thyroxine from animal thyroid, and co-inventor of a method of synthesising thyroxine. The irony from today's perspective lies in this paragraph

Recommended diets for IBS-D?
I am new here and have found the posts very helpful. Does anyone else feel the same about the recommended diets? I have had IBS, mostly D, for 16 years. The low Fodmap foods make me want to laugh! I wish I could eat them. I preferred a vegetarian diet before IBS; now I can rarely eat any vegetables

Cycle No More – or maybe?
I had my latest angiogram on Friday 5 mar, the result of which was that no additional stents were fitted and that no physical improvement actions were implemented. Although I was aware of the possibility that no improvements would be possible during this process I really was not mentally prepared for

Please help me understand my results - will this TSH level affect my fertility?
Hello all. I have been on Thyreogland - an NDT comprised of 100mcg t4 and 25mcg t3, for the last 2 years. Recently, the dosage I normally take was not in stock! So I have been taking 125mcg t4 and respectively more t3 (I don't know the exact amount), I realise this was a bit stupid given that I felt

BP is well down, but an increase in sodium drives it right back up. What to do?
Hello. Through weight loss/exercise/no caffeine/low sodium/medication (Lisinopril-HCTZ 20-25mg), my blood pressure has dropped from about 190/110 to about 100/65. Cutting back on my sodium intake has made a profound difference. I am a 55 year old male, I exercise daily and I hydrate well. Last weekend

Questions about stents and support
Update and questions I haven't posted on here for a while for many reasons (including the whole COVID thing) but as I'm still trying to get my head round stuff and had questions, I'm hoping there are some of you out there who can offer me some ideas/support. I'm currently seen at the Brompton, where

Anyone eating Imodium like me?
Anyone eating Imodium like pez to get control of watery/oily bowel movements? I consume 4 to 6 daily and am never constipated. I’ve had a colonoscopy, dr says nothing wrong at that end. Let’s run more test that cost more money. I said no and started taking Imodium then.

phosphorous ?
I have been diagnosed stage 2 CKD : potassium and sodium fine, but phosphorous raised, so my GP sent me for a liver scan , which the radiographer said he could see nothing on it to be worried about, but I am wondering why my doctor sent me for a liver scan and not a kidney one ? I haven't been

Time to move on from xtandi? And Ra-223 before jevtana? Thoughts?
Hi everyone, My father just switched his MO ( due to insurance issues) he is currently on xtandi His bone scans are stable but his PSA is going up. (From 16 to 20 in a month) His new MO says we can be proactive and mentioned starting him on Radium 223 and possibly provenge before we move on to jevtana

Hi, does anyone have a view on the benefits or harm in consuming coconut oil and/or 100% MCT oil, both generally and with respect to NAFLD?
