Desperate
Hi,I have suffered from anxiety all my life, I've always been nervous and have little confidence. In 2020, I was diagnosed with CPTSD, and initially had a few sessions of EMDR, and also hypnotise, neither of which worked. I subsequent developed chronic panic attacks, which were more like seizures/ fits

Tortuous colon
At my last colonoscopy (at age 60) the doc told me, upon awakening, that I had a "tortuous" colon. This was a surprise to me as I've had 3 or 4 previous colonoscopies in my life and have never been told that before. I have suffered with bloat, discomfort, gas, and other issues throughout my life, though

when to take tablets
I have had my thyroid problem since 1992 and when I was just taking my thyroxine , when to take it was not a problem. Now I have atrial fibrillation and have to take 1/2 tablet of Apocard with a blood thinner 12 hours apart with food. I also have to take a beta blocker with food but not with the Apocard

Eye drops
I've been diagnosed with ocular hypertension in both eyes and using Latanaprost drops at night. No real problems so far other than dry eyes later on in the day. My brother has Latanaprost too and he puts his drops in each eye but at the same time then presses on the tear duct for 2 minutes. The leaflet

still going strong.
hello my Ataxian friends, how are you all doing, ok I hope….. an update on myself. I had cataracts removed from both eyes a couple of years ago, my vision now is amazing, and the colors are beautiful, but the new lenses are long distance only, you don’t get a choice, so I still wear glasses for reading

Collagen Supplements
Hello all...does anyone have any advice or guidance please on whether taking collagen supplements is a good/bad idea alongside thyroid meds? My skin and hair are terribly dry and I was wondering if they might help. But I'm about worried about including them in the regime if there are contraindications

What To Do Next?
Hi Friends, First post here, although I've come back to this forum a few times. I'm at a spot where, even though I know it's untrue, I feel like I'm experiencing anxiety like no one has ever experienced it before (we all know the lonely feeling). I've been dealing with this for about a year an a half

Blurry Vision
I have recently begun treatment - I'm just about 2 months in. I began with a Rituxan infusion once a week for 4 weeks. Concurrently, I began Calquence (acalabrutinib) and Allopurinal, which I will take indefinitely. Shortly after beginning treatment, I began experiencing blurred vision, which continues

Need your input
I am not asking for a medical opinion. I am hoping to get this soon after studying the Epstein Barr virus, MS and my symptoms. Have any of you been diagnosed with the Epstein Barr virus? Do any of you have tinnitus, iritis, vertigo and tendons? I started to have numbness in the back of my neck,

Hylo Forte or Carbomer Gel?
I have been using hypromellose eye drops for a while because, particularly from Spring to autumn, I have itchy, gritty, dry eyes. This year they're worse than ever making my vision very blurred and no amount of hypromellose will fix it. Last week I went to get my eyes tested, thinking the blurred vision

Preventable Corneal Abrasion
Recently I went to a recycling centre on a windy day. I usually wear eye protection glasses but had forgotten to put them in the car. Within 5 minutes some dust had blown into my 'good eye' and it was very painful. Everyone was busy shaking out bags briskly all around me. Luckily I was not driving

My new Rux journey
See end for reason for the image. -- I've been on Rux for just over a month. As posted I switched from Bes after the IFN and Flu Vax blew up on me. I'm at 20 BID (10x2/day). So far nothing bad that's clearly Rux guilty has happened . I held CHR for three months off IFN. But it's starting to

Some help please…regarding waiting times
I have just spoken to the hospital about my referral and they are saying it could take 3 to 4 months. I cannot wait that long as my brain can’t cope and with all the medication I’m taking I cannot stay on it for that long. I had a laser iridotomy in November through the NHS for narrow angles this partially

Problem with antihistamines
I have glaucoma and the treatment causes me to have dry eyes that have resulted in damaged corneas. I am prescribed Carmellose 1% eye drops. I was also prescribed Fexofenadine tablets for my allergies but decided to stop taking them as watery eyes helped to reduce the dryness. However, given the pollen
