Iron Blood Test Results
Hi i’m wondering if anyone could advise on my iron blood test. I had a recent thyroid test which showed Ferritin at 69.1 ug/L (range 30-150). This was through Thriva. I have since tested with Medicheck and my ferritin seems to have reduced. Am just wondering if there was a way I could increase ferritin

I can’t sleep
For the past three weeks I’ve been waking up between 1am to 4am. I have bipolar 1. It’s really messing with me. Last week I had my house cleaned by 4am. I don’t feel manic really as I am more depressed than anything but I have read you can have both. It doesn’t matter what time I go to bed either. Sometimes

Buprenorphine vs. hydromorphone or other opioids
So I noticed during and after a recent TKR that the buprenorphine that I take for my RLS interacts with the hydromorphone that my surgeon prescribed for me for pain. First, when I was taking my buprenorphine along with the hydromorphone, the hydromorphone wasn't easing my pain because the buprenorphine

Nebivolol problems
I'm struggling with trying to balance blood pressure and heart rate.I take 1.25 Nebivolol once a day but am finding it lowers my BP too much which is making me feel dizzy and light headed.Have tried stopping it for a day but then get tachycardia and AF. Anyone else had this problem?

First Appointment - venting
First appointment with an endocrinologist this afternoon and it felt like a slow motion car crash. They tried to be kind and sympathetic, I could tell they genuinely wanted to be reassuring… but I just started seeing red flags as soon as they told me “I spend most of my time taking people off levo

Mirtazapine or Quetiapine
Hi, so I take both of these drugs and I’ve noticed weight gain since taking them. I want to work with my dr to come of one or both. Which one do you think is causing the weight gain?

My Efforts to Educate the Scientific Community
I have written an article about my RLS experience which I have been working to disseminate in the medical and research communities. The bulk of the article follows: The medical community is generally unaware of the benefit of a low oxalate diet for treatment of RLS. In 2015, after 5 years of closely

Our worst nightmare !!!
I am not surprised at the out come of this study a regarding RLS and dementia , it is the one thing we absolutely dread. I mean what do they expect not sleeping has always been a form of torture, and they al, treat us as if we make it up. There should be a protocol put in place that everyone who walk

Intrusive thoughts
Hi all. I have been taking medication for anxiety and depression and have come a long way from the initial panic attacks and overall depressed feelings. However, I still have these nasty suicidal thoughts barging in every so often especially when driving. How do you get those out of your mind? Any ideas

Thank you and recent results
This community gave me so much support about a month ago, when I posted about untreated Hypothyroid in pregnancy. Unfortunately I miscarried a week later, and I won't have any way of knowing if my thyroid was really the cause. I've taken some time to recover, but wanted to come back here and say thank

I can't deal with mom
She drank and spoiled her drink and was trying to wipe it but having hard time and like a pig in its own misery slipping. And I went outside crying and probably it's best i return back to my accommodation. This image is too much. Especially that we live in the same room, the 3 of us. And i had a therapist
