In a quandary
Hello, Late this afternoon I had an unexpected call from the nurse practitioner at my dr’s surgery regarding my HRT. In the course of our conversation - she was lovely - I took the opportunity to speak about my undiagnosed hypothyroidism (I’ve posted about my results, both from private and NHS tests

Exercise making it worse?
Hi everyone, I have a question about exercise and endo. So basically I've been pretty much bedbound all of last year with rare weeks of being able to function, but lately I've experience a good couple of months of feeling better and being able to live! (Don't get me wrong still in pain but manageable

knee pain post surgery
I am t my wits end. My husband has knee replacement surgery in Dec 2021. All was fine to start off with and he had a good range of movement. For the last 6-8 months he has been struggling with pain and movement. He can’t walk far and for long without pain relief. He has been back to see his consultant

When the drugs don’t work
Where to begin… my poor Mum had her first hip replacement in 2007, but it broke and she had a revision in 2008. Unfortunately she was in more pain than ever, and they were about to write the pain off as psychological but thankfully she got referred to an Orthopaedic Specialist hospital who discovered

Why is this so hard, someone to talk to
Hi everyone. I had treatment resistant depression for my entire adult life, I've been on pretty much every med, hospitalized, ECT tms and ketamine. Nothings helped. I've gone the DBT and cbt route. I've been suicidal. Can anyone out there relate? I'm married with a 13 year old which makes it harder.

Morning Back Pain
Hello, I have been suffering with back pain of a morning since I was a teenager. Back then it would come and go. It would only show up of a morning. However, the last 3 years, it's gotten increasingly worse. It happens every single morning now. It wakes me up at silly o'clock and does not allow me to

Low cortisol: will it improve when I'm on HRT?
I think I just keep asking the same question but in various different ways. 😂 I work term time only and every half term I'm full of optimism about what me and the kids can do and how much I'll get done in the house and inevitably I spend all week on the sofa. It's the same every time. I recognise

Total Hip Replacement tomorrow - yay!
So having been in a lot of pain with my right hip since last September and staving it off with injections, finally I am going into hospital tomorrow for a total hip replacement. Feeling grateful but trepidacious. Have read Dorset Lady’s tips - thank you for those - and have taken them onboard. Doing

Vitamin and mineral deficiencies/Thyroid dysfunction.. Chicken or Egg?

As most of you can relate to, I have given up so much in my life due to RLS. Every possible RLS trigger is in fact a trigger for me. I have given up HRT, SSRIs, statins, caffeine, alcohol, spicy foods (I used to put fresh jalapeno peppers on EVERYTHING), sugar, all processed foods, most carbs, and the

does an rls friendly diuretic exist?
I have bad swollen legs which my GP thinks is caused by excess fluid It probably comes from a combination of my RLS medicines ( Pregabalin 250 mg and 2mg Neupro patch) plus a recent knee replacement operation. To get rid of this excess fluid my GP upped my normal 50mg Spironolactone dose to 75 mg.

She doesn’t act that way with me…
I’ve known since my daughter was 2 years old that something was going on, but everyone around me tries to explain it away. It seems like to them having ADHD and sensory processing disorder is the kiss of death and all is lost for her. Why do I have to over explain her symptoms and diagnoses? If I say
