5FU/CAL, any experience? (5 fluorouracil/calcipotriene)
Just wondering if anyone has had treatment for actinic keratosis on the nose or face? I just started treatment for multiple AK's on the nose with FU/CAL cream (5FU-Calcipotriene compound) I have read that it activates lymphocytes and wondering if anyone using this compound has experienced any changes

Things, regimens,etc that are probably RLS worthless.
THINGS THAT DO NOT WORK FOR RLS All of us with RLS/PLMD have slightly different symptoms. We have tried various 'remedies' to try to relieve our RLS symptoms. We have read articles, some interesting, some ridiculous (bar of soap) that make amazing promises. And there is an entire array of things to

Colomycin v Promixin
I have been on Colomycin nebuliser for many, many years which I obtained from our local hospital. Now my consultant has decided for me to obtain the prescription from my GP surgery. But when I collected the meds from my local pharmacy they had dispensed Promixin instead. Anyone else had this problem

IBS Flare up
Good afternoon to everyone. I've had IBS-D for many years and I've been able to cope and manage it so far. But since October 2023, I had a major flare up, it was getting to the point where I was struggling to work and general daily activities. Was constantly on the toliet. It was that bad that I went

Cataract surgery?
Has anyone had any cataract surgery while taking Pegasys? Is there a problem with eye surgery while taking Interferon? I'm about to be changed over to Pegasys from Hydrea, and also about to have cataract surgery. Some of the things I've read seem to indicate that may be a problem.

Chronic endometritis
Hey lovely ladies! My question today related to endometritis/chronic uterine inflammation.

Best diet and supplementation guide for hypothyroidism?
Is there a really simple list of vitamins (and best times of day to take them) and a list of foods to avoid when starting out of levothyroxine? I have such brain fog that I'm struggling to compile a plan for myself. I really need to lose the weight I've recently piled on too. Also I have ADHD so I struggle

Suspected Cushings or just hypo
Hey everyone, My endo is sending me for an MRI of pituitary and CT of chest, pelvis, abdomen and adrenals. My salivary cortisol seems to go up a lot after adding t3, my blood cortisol is over range and I'm having issues raising thyroid meds, keeping me in a hypo state. Apparently I could have a tumour

Double vision episode
Just had one. First since November 2021. Then I was on high dose pred for GCA, coming down. Continued to taper quite successfully, eventually to zero in November 2022. But PMR followed, so went onto 15mg pred, tapering again quite successfully. Down to 5 mg since 6th February. Clearly no blood test

A shunt or not?

Simethicone
Been having problems due to Pelvic Floor Dysfunction. Whilst it’s improved a little bit in the last few days I’m finding that trapped gas first thing when waking is an issue. I was looking at Simethicone and whether that or Deflatine would help me. I’ve got afib and on regular medication (flec and bisoprolol

1.5 mgs now blood tests all over the place
So I am into my third year with pmr. I have been at 1.5 mg prednisone for 2 weeks and had my quarterly bloodwork done. Ana is now positive. It was negative last quarter. I am positive for Sjogrens but I don't have any symptoms. Is this because of my lower dosage? I am a little stiff and slow , but

Hello, really hoping someone has some advice as I’m at the end of my tether! My son is 5, he has struggled with constipation since he was 6 months old.
