So I was checking my emails and I found this old email when we used to talk here on HU. 'I love you to the moon & to Saturn!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️'. These were the exact words she said, and I found more messages like these. Suddenly I realised that she's bipolar, maybe she blocked me because she was

So, I quit my job last week. I lasted one week past a year. Unfortunately it got to be a toxic workplace which was causing enough stress to trigger my MS symptoms. I was waking up with tremors and numb legs. Basically the bookstore I was working at was struggling and I was being made the scapegoat.

I thought fellow RLS sufferers would be interested in the following sequence of events. Following advice from people on this website I wrote the following letter to my doctor: "[i]Dear Dr C,[/i] [i]I have suffered with severe Restless Legs Syndrome for four months now, often not being able to get to

Waking up gasping for air when first falling asleep? Help!
Why is this happening to me? I had a near head-on collision with a wrong way driver on the interstate in June and haven’t slept well since. It was a terrifying experience and brought back many memories of nearly dying a few times growing up. I was kidnapped in a foreign country at 8 years old. I was

This is part of me.
I feel as if I have always had Social anxiety to some extent from a very early age. I just had a panic attack that was a crazy feeling where I saw double and couldn't seem to even catch my breath. My world has gotten smaller and smaller over the years. I feel it would be very helpful to me to find

Latest thyroid bloods & iron panel…
I’ve just got my latest bloods back and this confirms I need to reduce my Levothyroxine. It’s a similar result to last time and shows my T4 to be too high. I was on 150mcg T4 only: TSH: 0.005 Free thyroxine: 33.5 (12-22) Free T3: 5.88 (3.1-6.8] Previous bloods from mid July tell the same story…

hi there I’m new to this having only been diagnosed with PMR a month ago and am on 20 mg pred and omeprozole and GP has just prescribed AA which I am due to pick up today. Inflammatory markers are down from first bloods a month ago but symptoms are only slightly better so GP is keeping me at 20mg daily
