Hey everyone, my friend has had anorexia for around five years now, not constantly in active addiction, but relapsing severely again and again. My friend goes through a lot of mental suffering. What should i do?

Hello, I got off Pramipexole after 6 tough months because of long term use and severe augmentation. Life changing doesn’t come close to how it feels now as I was lucky to have GP willing to prescribe low dose sub lingual Buprenorphine after seeing neurologist in Manchester privately. No RLS at all

Thank you for your input. I wanted to wait a while until I gave my report on how I’m doing. My GP phoned me the same day that I questioned being prescribed Duloxetine and took some time explaining things, refuting evidence of wholesale problems with RLS and persuaded me to follow his advice. He said

I'm just eating my way through all the bad food I've got at home - I can't bring myself to throw it out. Also going to keep an actual food diary because this does help me.

I have muscular dystrophy and the past 3 months have been hell with severe depression and anxiety, where I keep going only because what else do I do. I want to see the world so I’ll just suffer through it. The only reason I could have this is because my condition gets worse with regression. But I’m also

Hello community - I have stage 4 ovarian cancer metastases in the stomach and have been on Targin 25mg a day. Within 3 months my RLS came back with a vengeance. As per advice from this community I asked my doctor to change my medication from Oxycodone and Targin to Buprenophine. She calculated that

I started at 153 kg but just weighed 21st December 2024 and I'm 139kg and pleased with this, I've been down gym 3 time's in 5 day's and watching my carbs I eat, it's the lowest I've been for a few year's, finally the smart scales are heading in the right direction. Last weeks weight was 143kg so total

I’m aiming to do a rigid low carb regime for November (No!vember) and we’ve been invited by American friends for brunch on Sunday. I just don’t know what that includes - I’ve already said I don’t want bucks fizz. I loathe pancakes and waffles but I’m hoping they remember that. I know its just one meal

so I took my first dose of Buprenorphine last night. I started with 1 mg,that wasn't enough so I took the other half ( I have the 2 mgs) This stuff is amazing! Not a single jiggle of the legs! I'm going to drop to 1 mg tonight again and see.how that goes. I had to take half.a clonazepam for the,sleep

Losing weight is a bleak process. There is nothing positive in terms of actual performance. In other words, it feels like it's all about losing something, rather than adding to it. Weight loss is about caloric deficiency and as such it means restriction of diet. A contraction of menu which is about eliminating

However on the eating front a different matter. There's only so many ways you can propagate your menu in a way that purposefully obfuscates its subject matter. In other words, I knew intrinsically why my weight loss was static. I'm a big advocate of owning your actions.

A fortnight is a long time in weight loss. It isn't enough time to achieve your goals but it's long enough to derail you. The last 2 weeks have not gone well. I think it's not a stretch of the imagination to draw inferences from the last entry to this one. After much hype, fanfare and self aggrandizement

I am having a Crohn's flare and using tylenol and mylanta. I would like over the counter suggestions other than mylanta. Thanks. I am not interested in medication recommendations. Wantok

Hi. This is my first time posting. I recently had a severe attack which resulted in 2 admissions in very quick succession. On my second admission my asthma worsened to the point that I needed ITU care and intubation. During my time in A&E all the doctors were concerned about was my O2 sats. I tried to

I'm having difficulty in navigating the site. Could someone please point me towards the posts on Buprenorphine and weight loss?

I had a skin biopsy yesterday using local anaesthetic, standard skin puncture and a couple of stitches. I actually felt quite well after the procedure but feel like I've been run over by a truck today. I took 5mg of hydrocortisone about an hour ago and now feel slightly better. Is adrenal output taxed
