Liver Disease Reversal
Seen in the Daily Mail today British designed dialysis machine can be used on liver patients and appears to reverse the disease doing away with the need for a transplant. It should be available in three years. There isn’t too much information such as what stage of the disease has it been successful

What questions did you wish you’d asked before hysterectomy?
Hi All, I had excision surgery (BSGE surgeon) last autumn (pouch of Douglas, uterosacral ligament and uterine wall) and since spring this year the pain has returned. I’d been offered Zoladex or a hysterectomy, but i pushed for an MRI before making any decisions (the surgeon put me on the waiting list

postpartum psychosis
so my psychiatrist has diagnosed me with postpartum psychosis. I was on Olanzapine. 2.5 MG for a month but did not show any improvement. Now she has put me on Aripiprazole 2MG twice a day. It’s been four days. I am taking it but still not seeing any improvement. I know it takes time but I believe that

Periodic Limb Movement Disorder
Hello everyone. Several weeks ago I started taking Pregabalin whilst weaning off Pramipexole. I’m now on 150mg of Pregab. 3 weeks ago, I took my last Pram! Yayyyyyy!!!!! Since then, the RLS has almost completely gone, which is a lovely result. However, my night time PLMD is quite bad. Sleep deprivation

Here are the facts, what do I do?
So the facts of my life at this moment:Last night I literally broke into a lock box to get to my medications so I would have the choice to live or die while in a state of extreme mental distress. (Its a cheap lock box but it was way easier to bust into than I thought.) I hate myself. And that is not

Spending problems
If you read my other post you'll know I'm very much not ok, but right now in this moment I am calm. It's an empty calm, the kind that comes from mental exhaustion. I just don't have the mental energy to think, and thinking is my biggest enemy. Thinking is what gets me all worked up inside and sad and

Experience of taking Lofepromine.
I am a parent of a teenager diagnosed with treatment resistant depression. ECT has recently made minor improvements but now Lofepromine is being suggested. I am concerned about the side effects, the possibility of an increase in suicidal thoughts and many other worries as we have had some nasty past

Advice on iron status
Hi lovely people, I was hoping to get some advice on my iron status. A bit of background, I have just recently increased levo to 88mcg a couple of weeks ago, and was on 75mcg before that. So, I am aware that my thyroid hormone is still too low. It's a slow process getting docs to increase! My question

Binge eating disorder
