Guidance for RLS
Hi Everyone, I'm new to this forum and am so glad to have found you. I have suffered with RLS for years, and in the past year, it's become pretty severe. I get VERY little sleep. Currently, I'm taking Gabapentin and Magnesium Glycinate, but neither are helping--yet. I did take Carbidopa-Levodopa for

Apathy, compulsiveness, and how to manage?
If I take enough c/l to feel motivated, I get compulsive, hyperfocused, forget to eat or follow my schedule, stay up too late, etc. This holiday season has disrupted my schedule and I've lost 5 lbs that l'd spent months trying to gain back. If I take less, I don't feel like doing much other than sitting

Do I need an emergency cortisol injection kit?
Hi everyone, I've been on pred now for six months (currently taking 20 mg per day). I have a friend with primary adrenal insufficiency and he keeps telling me I need a rescue pen in case I get injured or suffer physical trauma. He says I could die quickly without it. This link he sent me says death

NovoThor
Has anyone tried or have any knowledge of NovoThor PBM Therapy light beds? A friend saw a leaflet in a waiting room recently, so I’ve done a bit of research and it looks very interesting and if the stats are true good be very helpful for fibromyalgia sufferers, no mention of cost though!

Calprotectin at 146 and panicking
Hey everybody. I’ve been experiencing constant abdominal discomfort for 10 weeks now. I wouldn’t say it’s pain but it’s definitely annoying, like my intestines are sore. It’s mostly lower abdomen but can be upper too. Sometimes food makes it better, sometimes worse. It happened to me 3 years ago

Week 9 run 3 and thank you
So decided that today was the day for the final run . Did the run with Laura who has been with me throughout (thank you) and then kept running until I completed the 5K ( very slowly) in 51 mins. Reflecting on how far I have come with C25K , you have been with me through the first year of retirement

intro / husband in critical care
Hi My husband has a road accident on 24/11 suffered an tbi and is currently in critical care. He has been off sedation since about the 27/11 but is still unconcious. He is responding to pain and has started to lift both arms when nurses fiddle with his tubes. He was off the ventilator all day yesterday

? Cover required for endometrial biopsy
I have been on prednisolone for over 2 years now and still on 10mg. I have a hysteroscopy and endometrial biopsy planned tomorrow and although this is only a minor procedure with no general anaesthetic or sedation, I’m just wondering whether I will need any extra steroid cover? Does anyone have any knowledge
