TSH levels article?
I have just been for my annual blood tests to check my TSH levels and will therefore have contact with the GP next week to discuss my Levo prescription. I tried last year to get them to increase my prescription when my TSH was at 1.9 but failed miserably to convince them (I was offered HRT to solve

Pacemaker with a leaky valve?
I have a slow heart rate...getting slower. Used to be in the 60's now commonly in the 50's and in the 40's when I sleep. I have a leaky heart valve which I believe is the cause of the slow heart rate. At my age of 78 and diabetes I do not think I am a good candidate for a valve replacement. Question

59 and finally diagnosed
So finally after being told by my doctor many years ago bad periods - even with shooting pains down thighs and in my hands - was normal for some women. I complained many times but was fobbed off with otc painkillers. And of course IBS was mentioned Then it was definitely IBS .. 4 colonoscopies, one

Cryptic Thyroid profile (as yet undiagnosed)
Newbie here. I'm impressed by wealth of info I've started to discover here and wondering if anyone could throw some light on my test results as I can't find anything the same. I have suffered from fatigue, aching muscles, low mood etc for about 5 years but nothing major diagnosed except low iron in

Hormone replacement therapy to be offered over the counter in UK
I really do have to ask, will this end up with those who need it being more likely to have to buy it themselves? Obviously, in England, this cost would sometimes be offset against a prescription charge. But in Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales, it would be a real increase in cost by the total price

Self-Catheterization - Any Thoughts?
I had a total
hip
replacement
in late October. I was catheterized. It was removed too soon. At 3:00 a.m. the following morning I was catheterized, my bladder drained and the catheter removed. Since then, I have been leaking urine. I wear Depends all the time. A CT scan showed nothing.

HRT usage
Hi I am 57 and have just changed from HRT patches to100mg progesterone and estradiol gel , the tablets recommend take on an empty stomach at night should I use the gel at the same time as I had planned to use the gel after my morning shower ?

Third episode of persistent AF in 6 months
I had a successful cardioversion on Christmas eve and then another one just 4 weeks ago. Gutted because I went into persistent AF again yesterday. I take Edoxaban and have tried to take Flecainide but it makes me dizzy and very sick. I tried the "pill in pocket " yesterday but it did not work.

Help please for my latest results
I’m sorry I’m so unsure of what my figures should be - little background info - approx 25 years ago had thyroid removed due to multinodular goiters - 6years ago had Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (discharged with clear arteries) which my doctor indicated could be due to too much thyroxine so reduced me from

Overmedicated but low temperature readings?
Morning everyone! I've attached my last blood test results from March again. I have Hashimoto's and my doctor is still insisting I'm overmedicated (due to my low TSH level, which has been that low, or lower, for about nine years) but I don't feel good and my temperate is anything from 35.2 to 35.6

Ropinirole
First timer. Been recently put on Ropinirole,not realising what a unpleasant drug it is. Yes it stops the RLS but I felt completely weird in the morning and would out of the blue feel so tired in the day. So I dropped from two tablets to one at night which is much better,but I will still get twitching

Oral Morphine
I was prescribed oral morphine after my second
hip
replacement
did not go well. I found that oral morphine did little to relieve my pain and caused chronic constipation. Sorry, not to be more encouraging.

Should I start on adalimumab
Hi all, I've had RA for about 25years and after a few poorly years have been relatively stable on ( mostly)25mg Mxt, with a knee replacement and wrist surgery along the way. Since December I have been having fairly regular flare ups, one of which put me in A & E with a high CRP level & severe pain.

Don’t want to take the drugs
Have had secondary osteoporosis for many years, and my T-scores continue to decline. Just had another dexa scan yesterday, and lost 1/2 inch in height. Had serious problems with Fosamax 20+ years ago. Currently on HRT estrogen only patch. Am certain when I go back to both primary and endocrinologist
