Iron supplement recommendations please
Can anyone recommend an iron supplement that won't cause constipation? My iron is low so GP prescribed me 200mg Ferrus Sulphate. I'm supposed to be taking 3 a day but I can barely manage 1, my bowels do not agree at all! 🙈 I was looking at Floradix liquid iron however it contains b vitamins which I'm

Beta Blockers.
Interesting piece in the August Life Extension magazine. Beta blockers inhibit progression in liver, breast, ovarian, pancreatic & colon cancer. Melanoma too, but conspicuously absent from the LEF list is PCa. A few weeks ago, there was a PCa meta-analysis [1]: "Ten studies met our inclusion

Just a quick update and looking for some advice if possible. My husband Martin who has prostate cancer since 2019 and now has bone and liver mets has just completed 6 cycles of carbolatin /etoposide chemotherapy. The Tumours had shrunk from 18mm to 8mm after 3 cycles so we are hoping they will

Doctor says husband's situation is rare
October 2022 my husband discovered a lump near his ear which turned out to be a tumor in his parotid gland. Grew very quickly in the 2 months before it was removed in December 2022. Biopsy proved it to be adenocarcinoma. Doctors said it was rare to find this type in the parotid gland. He had radiation

Increased cancer risk?
History of breast cancer here, so get my b12 level and others checked every 7 weeks. Now, I have read in some cancer fora supplementing with B-vitamins, in particular B12, can increase the risk of cancer, if ones level is always a bit high.I usually am around 5-700 nmol/L, when I get my Hydroxocobalamin

pregabalin and iron
Hello, I have tried googling if there is any interaction between pregabalin and iron but can’t find anything. I take an iron tablet due to low iron (morning and it has not helped) but will switch to iron bisglycinate at night after reading posts here. I stop eating at 6:30pm so I can take my pregabalin

Vitamin/mineral deficiencies
Hi. I've had Pbc for 6 yrs now. Recently I've noticed that I am more fatigued than normal. I asked for my blood results over the last 10 yrs . I noticed a progressive decline in my ferritin levels over the last few yes. I had a vitamin b12 level done recently and it was just above the borderline/normal

My IBS Team Sheet – 2. Haemorrhoids (How I manage)
I think that having experienced having Haemorrhoids about six years ago that led me to be diagnosed with IBS, the relationship between IBS and Haemorrhoids could be a bit of a Red Herring! To be fair, I have experienced having haemorrhoids once since my first diagnosis, but now that I exercise regular

Will Alendronic Acid affect my RLS?
I have Osteopenia and have been advised to start taking Alendronic Acid to prevent me developing Osteoporosis but am worried it might make my RLS worse. I take Requip and seem to have it under control.
