Hi Until December last I was taking 40 mg iron bisglycinate with orange juice every two days. Since this had little impact on my RLS I increased the iron dose to 40mg every day from December until now. As yet I have noticed little change to my RLS symptoms. A blood test this month showed my ferritin

Xtandi (enzalutimide) SEs Part 2
Since I've increased my Xtandi from 80 mg to 160 mg, I am now experiencing a bad case of the jimmy legs (restless legs) at night. I take my Xtandi around 8 pm. I still work full time and I've read that taking it at night helps avoid the fatigue during the day. So far that seems to be the case with

Taking hours to fall asleep
Gabapentin has controlled my RLS for last year or so. I only take 600 mg at bedtime for last 3/4 months now. I have recently started having difficulty falling asleep (no RLS, just wide awake for 3/4 hours). I thought about asking for a sleep aid from GP but didn't want to take anything that would aggrevate

Advice needed
Hi, my wife has endometriosis and I am wondering just how exactly I can convince a Dr about the level of pain she is in? Her journey started with very heavy and long periods on average between 10-20 days of very heavy bleeding, then she would have 3-5 days without and then again 10-20 days bleeding

Please share experience or advice re Risedronic acid and zoledronic acid use for low T score/ osteoporosis in GCA/PMR.
I have recently had a follow up Dexa scan. The last one was 2 years ago. I have GCA and PMR. At 20 mg pred and reducing after a recent flare of GCA. The scan has shown a significant deterioration in my lumbar spine but not in my hips/femur region which are still osteopenic. L1-L4 5/6/2024. BMD

Difficulty in getting bone scan results
Hi there I had a bone scan in October last year and after months of chasing finally got a call from my GP surgery on 7 June to inform me they had my results, that I have osteoporosis and need to go on alendronic acid. I have been checking my NHS app for the actual results but they've not been added

Immonocompromised CLLer with numerous warts.
I've had CLL (chronic lymphocytic leukemia) for at least 15 years, currently on oral therapy (acalabrutinib) to control my leukemia. One annoying problem that has worsened in the past year is an increase of warts. I've had warts for over 10 years, but they have not been as numerous or cosmetically

Alendronic acid
New GP has recommended Alendronic acid following Dexa scan which shows problems with lower back. She said to ask Dentist for his opinion - he says OK as far as they're concerned although I couldn't have extractions if on AA (not planning on having any anyway)! One tablet per week for ever presumably
