Tirosint
Its been 10.5 months since my thyroidectomy. I was at .69 TSH on levothyroxine 100 mgs a day with mega side effects. Doctors just switched me Tirosint 88 mgs a day. Am I to expect more serious changes, again. I lost my voice, got chubby, lost hair, aged, and more. Its been a life-changing experience

a little drama
I have just reduced to 5mg. And like many others my energy is crashing. So a bit of a roller coaster and trying to plan things so that I don’t have too much excitement all at once! Wednesday my husband was diagnosed with detached retina, yesterday was an hour and a half trip to eye hospital for his

Thank you
I am overwhelmed with gratitude to all those that have responded to my post yesterday . I responded individually to the first people ( I’m not sure how to private message , I’m a bit crap with technology and my texting thumb is numb 🤦🏻♀️) But thank you all . I have had both psychology sessions

Hi Everyone, I was on this site several months ago and since then have been in a psychiatric hospital, been seeing a psychiatrist, had EMDR and ketamine treatments, had weekly therapy sessions and am about to try a new therapist, and have tried five different anti-depressants. I'm still struggling

Glaucoma along with advanced AMD (GA stage)
Hi all, I am new to this forum and would like an opinion from the experts here. My father has glaucoma in both eyes and unfortunately, by the time it was diagnosed, his vision in right eyes was 30% remaining only. This was almost 12 yrs back. His left eye was the savior for us so many years till 2018

Touchpoint Solutions for ADHD/Focus
My 8 yo daughter was diagnosed with ADHD last year. After a several month wait due to insurance and availability limitations, she is now in therapy and I think it will be very helpful for her. She continues to struggle in school. I hoping to avoid medication if I can, but I also know it will be some

immune system
Hi Everyone Can anyone tell me what affect Pegasys has on the immune system. A few tears ago I had a positive ANA and Anti-Ro blood test, was seen by a Rheumatologist who said I had Sicca symptoms but not Sjogrens. Another recent blood test has shown the same, positive ANA and Anti Ro. Now I am having

Cloudy Vision after IVOM / Injection
Good day, On Friday, I had my 3rd Vabysmo injection in both my left and right eyes. I'm 28 years old and have been a diabetic for 23 years. My prescription for both eyes is -0.75. During my last appointment four weeks ago, my left eye had 100% vision, while my right eye had 90%. After the procedure

Dry mouth and throat
I have a constantly dry throat and meds, probably from meds. Other than carrying water around with me whenever I go out, or a constant supply of cough sweets, does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks

Red Eye Update
Hi,I posted a few days ago about keep having a bloodshot eye. Now on 4th since the beginning of the month!! Or maybe they never actually completely go in the first place, only disappear from the visible part of my eye? I went to the MEC clinic at Specsavers and after various tests and examining my eyes

Trust Issues
The older doctor in my GP practice, that I have known for years and trusted, lied to me the other day and I have no faith in him any more. I had an eye infection a few weeks ago, which I put down to hay fever. I was prescribed Chloramphenicol, but the infection took a while to clear as the instructions

Propafenone Back!!!
JimF here in the U.S. A while back I posted regarding the critical shortages of Propafenone, which then bled over to shortages of Flecainide and Tikosyn.......which may continue until February. I'm happy to say that my 90 day supply of propafenone has just been refilled by my pharmacy, a truly "thank

Update on painful buttocks and thighs
My rheumatologist requested a CRP test for me yesterday, and it was below 3, low normal range. As I think back, I may have over done it four days in a row, and this may just be very sore muscles. My mother would have called it being “lame.” I have been taking it very easy the last couple days and

Is it the Medication or am I Losing it?
Do you do daft things? This morning I picked up my toothbrush and instead of putting toothpaste on it picked up a tube of face wash cream and spread that on my toothbrush, as soon as the brush went in my mouth I knew what I'd done. Last week I took a carton of orange juice out of the fridge and poured

Hopelessness
I've been diagnosed officially with PTSD this week which is not a shock. I begin EMDR sessions next week so hope those are able to help. I have these bouts of feeling hopeless. I'm trying not to go too hard on myself but just feel that things will never get easier. Cry myself to sleep most nights with
