10k training run
Hi folks 🤗 just thought I'd update you on how my training is going. Today I'm up to 6k run I could pinch myself as never thought I'd get to do anything like that again!! Feeling good though wee bit knee trouble now and then. But nothing a pain killer and deep heat can sort. I'm joining a park run group

rheumatoid arthritis
It’s been called arthritis but it’s not in joints but it’s a pain around my chest and back. X-ray and Ct scan have not reveal anything. GP says let’s try to control the pain first

bradycardia interrupting sleep
I’m waking up during the night with low heart rate 42-48 bpm and a feeling that my heart is labouring. This is usually twice in the night and I often can’t get back to sleep after 4.00am. I think sleeping on my back doesn’t help ( I try not to) and my other half tells me I snore. Tried all the sleep

I’m one of the 20%
20% of autoimmune thyroid patients never have high thyroid antibodies and ultrasound scan of thyroid can get diagnosis. What would show up on the ultrasound scan to indicate hypothyroidism

Test results confusing
My mum has had an underactive thyroid for years...alongside type 1 diabetes. She was told she wasn't having enough levothyroxine, so the doctor wanted her to put it up to 100, but she asked to go on 75, as she felt 100 would be too much. The doctor agreed. She had a blood test on the 7th December and

Chemo Vs ADT
So this is possibly the dumbest question I have asked. But the knowledge on this forum is worth tapping into even for people like me who struggle with all the complexities of PC. So, - ADT suppresses PC but will not kill it. Chemo on the other hand finds the PC cells and kills them. So why do

Nees help
i’m a 43-year-old guy who’s been diagnosed with Parkinson’s for five years. The meds for Parkinson sort of help. I’ve tried lots and lots of things, but the thing that made me feel the very best was B12. I think I have pernicious, anemia and Parkinson’s. I also have a very low B2 levels. If I don’t

Very High Reverse T3 level. Should I be concerned.
Out of the blue I decided to get my Reverse T3 level checked as I’ve never had it done before and I was rather curious. I have Central hypothyroidism. I currently take 150 mcgs of Levo , 20 mcgs T3 and 10 mgs of hydrocortisone. My most recent blood results were - TSH - 0 ulU/ml

Best UK substitue for US Synthroid
Hi, I lived in the US for over 20 years and was prescribed Synthroid for underactive Thyroid. I found that the generic levothyroxine brand was not effective. I have moved back to the UK and would like to find a brand that is as close to Synthroid as possible. Would appreciate any recomendations.

Convergent ablation procedure
hello all, I have had persistent AF for about a year after a few years of PAF (initially diagnosed as panic attacks). I was on BISOPROLOL 3.25 and Apixaban 2x day. I had a successful CV in February this year and have reduced my BISO to .625. I do not tolerate the drugs well including the anticoagulant
