Diagnosed HBP Dec 2022. On Amlodipine 5mg since Jan 2023. All good as at May 2024.
Prescribed Amlodipine 5mg daily early Jan 2023. By mid Feb the meds did their job with mild side-effects (numbness in hands/feet with swollen ankles from sitting at a desk for extended periods). These moderated 10 days. Sitting long periods is no good = swollen ankles. Exercise resolves that within

Struggling with week 8
I am completing week 8 run 2 and I've been exhausted this week. I've bought some electrolyte tablets and found they helped on the first run of thus week. I have been overheating and actually felt a little sick after a run last week due to having to do evening runs and the humidity. Anyone else running

subclinical - do I need levo?
I have been borderline Subclinical hypothyroidism for around 10 years. The GP put me on levothyroxine 2013, I took a low dose for a month or two but couldn’t tolerate it (palpitations), so I stopped. I was referred to Endo who did a check on my antibodies - was clear. Every year, my tsh was either just

Speechless by my GP’s response
I messaged my GP surgery and requested a full thyroid blood test (not just TSH which is all I’ve been able to get since COVID) as well as iron, vits B and D tests. I’ve been feeling really rotten, and want to look at every potential reason. Now, bear in mind I have been on HRT (prescribed by them) for

Surprise at GP
had an appt this morning about gut/urgency issues and finally got round to asking what my very first TSH reading was, in August 2021, 3 months post hip replacement surgery. My understanding was that I was borderline - I didn’t even know what that was! I was retested six weeks later and a bit higher,

Pain Relief
I have posted before regarding Scleroderma and Raynauds and the problems which relate to this. I have osteoarthritis in my knees and they are so very painful. I was coping with the help of steroid injections, paracetamol and Ibuprofen however steroid injections are now limited with less relief and

Does HRT cause weight gain?
Did you gain any weight when you talk HRT? I'm very concerned about this as I've read several reviews of people saying that they did and I haven't eaten disorder so that kind of thing terrifies me.

Medical Cannabis?
Has anyone tried medical cannabis for pain relief? I have severe arthritis which limits my life quite a lot, my doctor won’t refer me for knee replacement until I lose more weight, and being on Rux has meant more weight gain! Obviously will need to ask haematologist about. It is quite expensive and

I had an ankle scan years ago as part of a work "well woman clinic" and was told I was borderline oestopenia Then as I had my ovaries out because of cysts I had a private dexa scan as a baseline for making decisions about hrt etc My results seemed a bit 'off' but everyone says oh it's fine (it probably
