I Seem To Have 90% Cured Myself After Having Asthma/Eczema From Birth 47yrs Ago. The last 10% I think Is In My Mind.
It's my first post and I don't write here lightly, I have been pondering posting for some time but wanted to see if what was happening to me was was not a short term effect. I do not want to create false hope, I am certainly no medical professional and you should read what I write only as purely my own

I had it for few years usually after intensive housework (in gloves) only on fingers of left hand. It would usually calm down in day or two. But since this summer it got constant and getting worst. Even after swimming it would be red and irritated. Since September my GP was giving me steroid based

Anyone here self-medicating with Hydrocortisone? Would like to hear about your experiences.
Hi, I am thinking of doing this for a while now but somehow never had a courage. I think that I finally made up my mind to do it. But I would like to hear first from people who are doing the same. Any info would be useful. Thanks.

Osteoporosis & Bad Teeth Affected by T3 & T4, not low TSH
Another good osteoporosis article. We all agree that TSH alone is not a good indicator of thyroid levels, but high OR low levels of T3 and/or T4 do have an effect. Too much T3 can raise SHBG, which can negatively affect bone health. Too much T4, without T3, can also have a negative effect. And for

Psoriasis delay
Waiting times are very bad in Angus. Had a letter telling me my referral to dermatologist would be 20 weeks not 12!!! My psoriasis was very bad but I find the best for me is using Epaderm cream (from doc regularly ( daily )to keep skin moist and covering myself with Exorex lotion. It works better

Weaning off Hydrocortisone
I've been on HC for nearly 3 years now. I did manage to wean from 25mg to 10 back in May but had a bereavement and ended up crashing so had to go back up. Just lately though I've have trouble sleeping. (waking at 2am and not getting back to sleep) I've done lots of research and from how my body feels

Hydrocortisone for adrenal fatigue
Anyone on or used hydrocortisone for adrenals? I'm on 20 mcg t3 and using 10 mg HC in morning and 5 mg noon. My symptoms seem to be worse last week or so. Dr slowly increased the HC over last 6-7 weeks. My meds are slow release compounds. I have hashi and Lyme diagnoses. Dr ran labs today to see what

Self-medicating with hydrocortisone
Hi guys. I am self-medicating with both T3 and HC. Since my doctor thinks that adrenal fatigue is a dirty word I really had no option but to do it myself. So I first tried with supplements, then cream but nothing worked until I started with HC tablets. I take 20 mg in the morning and my energy level
