should cortisone always be combined with DHEA?
The Hertoghe doctors say you need to take DHEA with hydrocortisone or Medrol (unless you also suffer from PCOS). The reason is that DHEA will prevent cortisone from "eating up" too much tissue. Therefore, you are handed a prescription for DHEA along with your prescription for cortisone. Last year, my

An update on my husbands thyroid problem
We had an appointment today with the endocrinologist. They have taken bloods but in the mean time we have made our own discovery. Probaby should explain more that he has a benign tumour on his pituitary gland. For this he takes 125 levothyroxine and 20 hydrocortisone. The tumour was a side effect of

Can someone comment on these blood tests
Hi. I have been reading this site for a while now and consequently that is why we got my husband to have his bloods tested. Based on your information in your area even though his b12 is in range he would still be classed as low??? He has terminal stage four melanoma, diabetes and thyroid problems (caused

Where to start, who to see?
Hello, My daughter has just been diagnosed with discoid lupus, so we are slowly coming to terms with all that this will entail for her. She's 9 years old and has had skin problems and horrible rashes whenever we have visited sunny countries, we finally had our diagnosis after being bounced between dermatologist

Red dry skin patches with SS.
Does anyone with SS or RA get red dry patches on skin that isn't Psoriasis? My derm says it not that and just some type of inflammation but doesn't know what and gave me low dose steroid cream to put on which helps but it doesn't get rid of it. It's always pink and sometimes flares and gets little

My husband and his thyroid problem
Hi. Not sure where to start. This is for my husband. I am a googler and came across your site. I have never posted anything but read your site everyday looking for answers. Reading your questions and responses on various issues (pain especially has been very useful) so far have been very interesting

Undiagnosed, But Certain I Have This
I've suffered from fainting spells for many years. Past GP could carried-out blood tests and I once had an ECG. My current GP attributed my last incidence of fainting to stress. Luckily, I haven't fainted to the point of passing-out for a few years now. The last time I fainted, I had gone to the bathroom

What a laugh! Any one else been badly treated?
So after some 20 years of jumping through the NHS hoops to get a diagnosis and being badly let down, then going private to find that I did have limes disease and anaemia that the doctors didn't pick up from my tests. CD 57 range is 130 to 300 my results were -11! That's another story!! Last September

TSH advice and Thyroid Testing Trough Method
Have gone to so many Drs, a few best endos in my area, and trying to figure out how to medicate myself properly to reduce this decade-long fatigue (other issues possibly, including adrenal fatigue from stress and a long time in t4 only meds). Finally seeing a good dr tomorrow to go over recent test

Pain and inflammation around breast bone? And... emergency hydrocortisone injections from GP!
Happy weekend! Does anyone suffer with pain and inflammation from under their breast bone? It feels like a heavy weight is sat on my chest and I ve been thumped or kicked hard there as well as burning hot to touch. No swelling. Breathing can be difficult when this area is very inflamed. Comes and goes

Will hydrocortisone cream work as well as hydrocortisone tablets in allowing your adrenals rest to recuperate?
Thought that if the cream works in allowing the adrenals to rest, I would try it before the hydrocortisone tablets as is cheaper. Any good sources of either appreciated?

Cover ups by NHS
I put some posts on some time ago re my daughter and the unethical treatment she received. This is an update of how far drs will go to cover up previous medical negligence and some of the previous 'treatment' she received. 1) manipulation of the facts by drs to 'explain' their own lack of investigation

New meds to try out for DLE Lupus
I've been using Elocon for two months now and results are good from improving red marks on my face if I keep using it but if I stop using it for too long it flares up again. I had my second hospital appointment this week and they are prescribing me Hydroxichloriquine as my hands are very sore and painful
