Help with getting a diagnosis
Hi all, I have been struggling for years now with symptoms of hypothyroidism. It’s all really come on over the last couple of years. My weight is out of control, I’m freezing all the time, my hair is dry and brittle, plus many other textbook underactive thyroid symptoms. I’ve been to the doctors

Yet another clueless G.P. - I despair!
So, I've been getting symptoms that I'm pretty sure are down to my thyroid being on the fritz. I was recommended a new G.P. at the practice who takes an interest in autoimmune problems. So I sit down, tell her that my hair is falling out, I'm gaining weight, tired, palpitations etc and that I have autoimmune

overdose
I was diagnosed Feb 1 2024. Is it possible to overdose on Co-Beneldopa 200 MG. I take three doses a day [3 x 200 mg]. I try to take them at 8-hour intervals but often screw up, as my memory is so bad. Any side effects of Co-Beneldopa?

Burning pain in thigh
last night I woke with a sharp burning pain in my thigh, it felt like a hot knife. As I went to move my leg it spasms and pain became intense. This lasted for about 20 mins. Even today I still get the odd niggling pain again feeling hot. Does anyone have any ideas ? Thanks

The whites of your eyes?
Sorry to bother but these last several days the whites of my eyes are grayish and bloodshot when I wake. Not yellow though. They get better as the day goes on but its curious to me and slightly worrisome. Will be weeks before I can see my liver dr. Has anyone else had this? Is it a common side effect

Pace and ablate for atrial tachycardia?
Just wondering..... The evidence here and elsewhere suggests that pace and ablate comprises a good option for many of those folks in later life who have very symptomatic persistent/permanent AF and for whom cardioversion no longer works.
