With my sister in Ireland after labs came back - please help with advice…
Hello everyone, I posted previously - briefly, my sister has had cognitive decline for about two years and was diagnosed with hypothyroidism about four years ago. Her Levo has just been increased on 50 to 75 mcg. She is not on T3 or NDT. (I didn’t know about NDT until I came on this portal). She only

Dexa scan
I had to have a Dexa scan last Wednesday, arranged by Endocrinologist I’ve only seen once and discharged at conclusion of the appointment. Saw GP yesterday (appt made nearly a month ago after Endo appt) who said I would need medication if osteoporosis identified in scan (as TSH suppressed!). The side

They lived almost twice as long, compared to mice that were in rooms with 30 degrees. The inhibitory effect

I don't know what to do :(
I was diagnosed with an underactive thyroid back in 2018. I assume it's autoimmune related as my anti body score was 410.8 but it's never been stated as such. My mum also has an underactive thyroid which I think is the main reason they started me on levothyroxin in the first place; 2 years before in

Elevated PSA due to Tagrisso?
Hi all: My 79 y.o father has been on Tagrisso for nearly a year now. He just had his PSA levels tested and there's a bit of an increase. I'm wondering if anyone out there has had the same experience? (He does have a history of BPH and experienced urinary urgency soon after starting on Tagrisso.)

Clinical Pharmacist - I'm quite cross!
I received a letter from the Doctors asking me to make a telephone appointment on certain dates to speak to a clinical pharmacist regarding treatment for COPD. I telephoned the doctors, yesterday and after a long hold spoke to the receptionist who gave me an appointment for today for 11:30. I had one

Spinal cord stimulation
I live in Ireland and saw a pain specialist as I have run out of options to treat my chronic refractory migraines. He is going to implant a spinal cord stimulation as he said it should me a lot and give me a better quality of life. He is the best pain doctor in Ireland and I had to wait 6 months to see

More about Dexascan / AA / Adcal
I opened up intending to post about my latest AA Prescription dilemma - and still would like some advice. I wasn't sure whether to add to Blackcat1M's post - but it seemed a bit rude to invade her space! Anyhow, my GP prescribed me AA and Adcal -D3 early May on basis I had been on Pred since PMR arrived

PIPS and COPD
Hi everyone. Will my PIPS be affected if I still smoke? I’m trying so hard to give up by slowly tapering off and have reduced my smoking by two thirds with the method I came up with after numerous attempts over 20 years to stop. My cravings for nicotine were just as bad every day even after two years

Newbie looking for advice on recent test result
I was diagnosed with an underactive thyroid in april 2022. What a rollercoaster! Do I have an autoimmune thyroid disorder? My first test was looking at reason for a change in bowel movements and fatigue. Doctor responded directly to the TSH level and placed me on 25mg levothyroxine. Serum

Hi, Please excuse if I make any spelling mistakes or miss out any words. I had back surgery about 9 years ago for a prolapse disc L4/L5 S1 sadly two surgeries later it failed which still left me in pain with nerve damage. Finally after putting up with the pain my Pain Consultant referred me to see

unsure about diagnosis.
I am 77 and just had spirometry test and been diagnosed with severe COPD. Chest X-ray normal, sputum normal, oxygen 99%., no crackles or wheezing. No breathlessness just morning and evening chesty cough a few times which sometimes means expelling clear phlegm but not always. I have not been prescribed

Spinal Cord Stimulator and PMR pain
After 10+ years of chronic back pain, resulting from failed spinal surgeries, spinal stenosis and osteoarthritis, I finally opted for Spinal Cord Stimulator implant with Boston Scientific System. I am happy to report my chronic back pain has been reduced by 65%. Eureka! All was well, as I continued

Very dry skin
Had HA and stent fitted last December. On aspirin, clopidogrel, bisoprolol, ramipril, atovorstatin, pantoprazole. Has anyone experienced very dry skin all over, especially on legs? I am using aqueous cream twice a day but skin keeps flaking off. Would one of these tablets cause this? Lily

lungs having hissy fit
Anybody else finding themselves really, really tight and short of breath in last week or two???? I'm assuming pollen & mould spores are to blame( my usual triggers), but breathing is a constant daily battle. My Relvar 184/22 doesn't seem to be doing much, am taking Fexofenadine 180 daytime and montelukast

Reducing levothyroxine and taking HRT
I would appreciate some thoughts on whether I should reduce my Levothyroxine from 125 daily to 125 x Mon-Fri and 100 x Sat/Sun to bring TSH up a little bit. GP has agreed to this and started me on HRT patch (Evorel Conti 50) to see if that helps with the aches and pains as she thinks thyroid is treated
