Plant Sterols.
Is it safe to take plant sterols with levothyroxine? I've been told my cholesterol is high, it's 6.1 and my GP wants me to take Statins. I am not happy about this as I feel sure they will upset my IBS so I wondered if plant sterols were compatible with levothyroxine.

Benefits of yoga ๐
Does anyone else do yoga and have information or experience on it reducing portal hypertension ? I have been doing yoga more often, and it is great from a stress reducing and muscle toning perspective, I came across a research article about how yoga decreases the sympathetic and increases the parasympathetic

Doxazosin
I was diagnosed with compensated cirrhosis in 2017. Today I was prescribed Doxazosin, an alpha blocker, for palpitations and hypertension. This is supplementary to the Irbesartan and Felodipine I've been on for many years. But I'm not happy with the leaflet on the medication, which lists liver problems

The liver and high blood pressure
Can anyone help here? My blood pressure is too high but the medicines I've taken for this are not helping at all. One was a beta blocker, the other (more recent) an ACE inhibitor called Rampiril. It seems likely that I'm not metabolising certain drugs as I used to but need to get the blood pressure

A tip for Australians with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia trying to access pneumococcal vaccination through the National Immunisation Program
What a morning I've had to get my third pneumococcal vaccine. I'll share the details here as the solution I found could help others with CLL in Australia who are having difficulty accessing these vaccines through the National Immunisation Program (NIP). In Australia, since 1 July 2020, it's standard

dislocated shoulder and rls
I recently dislocated my shoulder. Since that happened, i noticed my rls got worse and now i get it during the day. No new meds. Could the dislocation have anything to do with this?

Raised cholesterol
I have been advised to take cholesterol medication by nhs endocrinologist. He did genetic testing for familial hyperlipidemia, which was negative but had an anomaly. I was given Atirvastatin which I havenโt tried as it seems to be one that has worse side effects for patients with thyroid disease. I
