Oestradial HRT & the thyroid, Lenzetto blood tests
I just wondered if low oestradial affects the thyroid? I have been on HRT since March and my level is still only 197 pmol/L. I use 3 sprays of Lenzetto. I wondered if it could be affecting my thyroid function? I don’t have menopause symptoms, I had bottom of range testosterone, but this is now in range

Occupational Therapy
Hi everyone, my 11 year old was diagnosed with ADHD six years ago. I am just wondering for those who are having occupational therapy as part of an accommodation - it what ways has it been helpful or if it has been helpful? Just trying to get a sense of how occupational therapy might fit in.

Total knee replacement and AF
Hi Firstly thank you to everyone who has offered their support previously since I was diagnosed with AF last November. Over the last few years I have been trying to hold off a total knee replacement. (TKR) I was walking more to strengthen my muscles to support my knee and managed to ditch the brace

Dad’s story
I’m writing on behalf of my dad who was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis back in 1982 when he was 28. He managed his condition very well with no medication, just diet and a healthy lifestyle until things started getting worse around 12 years ago. He was put on a medication which controlled things

cost of Forteo, Tymlos, Evenity, Prolia in USA
after being on HRT for a year my numbers have worsened and I now have osteoporosis in spine and both hips in the -3 range. In addition I need a biopsy for breast lump. Ugh.

hi This is my first post, my husband 79 was diagnosed with PSP 18 months ago. My biggest frustration and upset is his apathy and lack of communication. We can have good and bad days and at hospital appointments he has proved he is able to communicate. It is just heartbreaking that he has no will or
