How do we get a T3 test requested?
morning, just been reading through a load of things on here as I’m not sure my figures are where they should be at the moment. I’m getting a load of problems lately especially to do with my feet, muscle aches, dry skin, anxiety, brain fog (and also what I think is pulsatile tinnitus that’s driving

Typewriter tinnitus or Middle Ear Myoclonus?
Hi all, I had a clicking start in my left ear 5 months ago. At first it was just a click, and there was a feeling to it too. At times it could sting my ear. Then one night, I got a bombardment of lighter clicks in the ear, that went on for a near minute. Over time the these clicks have become more frequent

Blood test interpretation
Hallo everyone, I requested a blood test to cover a number of things - not sure this one covers everything or maybe there's more to come. I wonder if anyone might be willing or have the time to help with interpretation. ESR looks OK - I requested CRP as well but doesn't appear to be there unless I

QUICK TAPER; CRP RISING STEADILY; FLARING
As suspected, the very quick taper rheumy thought up (2.5 mg per week til I get to 10, then reducing 1 mg per month), has caused a flare and I'm in pre-PMR pain - almost). Currently at 12 mg but should be down to 9 by now, if I was to go with her guidelines. GP refuses to let me up the pred saying "it's

Dizziness / Vertigo whilst on Pred
I’ve been suffering with nausea and dizziness whilst on Pred, whilst this has been awful it’s not as bad as the PMR pain I was experiencing. My GP and an a nurse have suggested this could be to do with the inner ear. I do suffer from travel sickness and avoid roller coasters / waltzers because they

covid - any benefit from Azithromycin 250
yesterday I spend several hours in car with someone who may now have covid, although she’s only presently showing a sore throat. Someone she spent last weekend with has now tested positive. Do I get any protection from the daily dose of Azithromycin 250. I have problem wearing mask as result of broken

strategies
hi everyone. I’m new to this forum. I’m wondering if anyone has some coping strategies for tinnitus? Since COVID I’ve had it severe and it’s taken over my life I’ve seen an audiologist who has given me hearing aids to mask abit of it. It does help a tiny bit but all depends on how loud it is at

Flare up after ear infection
I've had ear infection which the doctor gave me antibiotic spray for, thankfully ear pain had gone after a few days, but left with jaw pain, headaches and extreme exhaustion, as soon as I feel a little better I feel I have the energy to do a little bit, then I'm straight down again after the slightest

Worried- pressure at 5 at trabeculectomy follow up today
Has anyone had to deal with low pressure after trabeculecyomy? I had the fourth of my weekly post- trabeculectomy follow ups today. The pressure was 5. Before the operation the pressure was consistently around 15. Week one after surgery it was 15, week two, 17 ( then stitch removed) Week 3 was 20. Stitch

Filling the syringe
I did my first 8 subcutaneous b12 injections as I was shown by the doctor. Since then the nurse at my g.p. surgery has been doing my injections every 2 weeks as prescribed. (She offered me the choice of continuing to do it myself or she would do it.)The consultant had told me if I wanted to give myself

SSI Registration - any reason not to?
Hi, I asked my previous eye consultant if they would fill a form out to say I was visually impaired. It was a few years ago but they refused which was frustrating because I wanted to apply for a disabled railcard :-). Anyway pretty much out of the blue my current eye consultant proactively asked

Worse after an UTI and Covid
Good afternoon. About five weeks ago I developed an UTI for which I took three separate courses of antibiotics as it wouldn't clear. In the same period I contracted Covid which didn't affect me much. I only found out that I had it because a friend who I'd spent time with had done a Covid test and it

Any advice welcome
Hello. Does anyone have advice on the use of estriol cream for vaginal atrophy. Also whilst seeing the urologists they have advised that I should not worry about the fact that I have both maternal and paternal grandmothers and maternal aunts who had breast cancer. Also they've changed medication to Hiprex

Feeling doomed today
Please can I ask for you thoughts and opinions, I understand it’s not medical advice and I’m speaking to Rheumatology but I need real like experience that only others on here have really. I came off Baracitinib in Jan because not really effective and affecting my lipids adversely. Then onto Tocilizumab

Supplements for Insulin Resistance
Hello Everyone, I've been reflecting on my symptoms and have come to realize that they are all connected to insulin resistance. These include issues like brain fog, not feeling satisfied after meals and feeling dizzy in the evening etc. The good news is that my fasting insulin levels are now within
