Naproxen instead of Prednisolone
Has anyone else been told to come of steroids and take Naproxen instead? I have been told to reduce from 5mg to zero (4mg this week then 3 then 2 etc )and use Naproxen instead as I’ve got low sodium I’ve had it before when I was first on Prednisolone and have had it since January it despite adding salt

Spasms
I'm on a waiting list to see a gastro doc after having a very rough time for the last 2 years(since a horrible stomach bug). I've explained before but my issues worsened last year after taking two Flucloaxillin and ever since I've been a digestive mess. However, with 80% of my diet now low fodmap I believe

IBS D obsessed
Hi I have had IBS d for many years. I take Imodium daily just lately because most days I am in situations such as work meetings, places with no toilet or just worry that I will not reach a toilet due to previous attacks. The truth is though I may not actually need the Imodium as I haven’t had a bad attack

Increasing Levothyroxine made my blood work worse
I'm new here but absolutely desperate for some answers. I’m sorry this is going to be long. I was diagnosed hypothyroid back in 2013 and did okay on 25 mcg/day of Levothyroxine. My TSH was never ideal, often a bit above the acceptable range, but whenever they tried to increase my dose I got tons of

Advice on latest TSH results & High vitB12-take PPIs for acid reflux....
Hi Would welcome your thoughts on my latest TSH and whether my sluggish, low energy, weight gain, constant bloated stomach, brain fog, bad short term memory and fungal rash on breasts-Is it all hypo symptoms or B12 deficiency masked by the taking of PPI Omaprazole for hiatus hernia and acid reflux.

Help with diagnosis
My husband has had chest pain for 20+ years. He was initially diagnosed as having angina but when all investigations came back clear, he was "dismissed" by cardiologist and GP alike. His last appointment back then was with a registrar who said he thought it was coronary artery spasm but nothing was ever

Question regarding symptoms and dizzy/cold sweat episode
Recently Diagnosed with Angina, CAD of the LAD. Reading up on this states chest aching/discomfort should go on taking aspirin and GTN but I have constant aching and discomfort in my chest - is this normal symptoms or unstable angina? Also woke up in the middle of the night feeling unwell, went to bathroom
