Citalopram
I am quite traumatised as Citalopram almost killed me. I had to stop it cold turkey in November. The side effects came on slowly over about 8 months beginning with feeling withdrawn and one muscle shaking in my hip. It progressed to problems with coordination including feeling my eyes were not working

Coming off Sodium Valproate
I stopped taking sodium valproate about three weeks ago after cutting down to half a pill for a few months. I'm a little worried as I've seen a lot said about the possibility of seizures and would like to know how long of not taking it would have me in the clear? I'm unable to go see a Dr so would really

Hello , my question relates to my bloods, re Vitamin B12 replete Plasma Folate level, is a result of 7ng/ml ( 4.0-20.0) considered low?
Think i may have hypothyroidism. I have epilepsy and been using medication for 40yrs, sodium valproate/epilim. Just discovering it can stop vitamins and minerals being absorbed into the body properly and cause Thyroid problems. My bloods came back as deficient in vitamin D, as 24 nmol/l , testing range

B12 and electrolyte imbalance
Hi folks I have been struggling with low sodium due to laxative use, (I have severe IBS). In the process of trying to correct the sodium I changed meds to Linzess and took sodium. I think that caused an electrolyte imbalance. Now I am feeling really bad with weak legs, bad vision problems, shortness

Sodium benzoate in soft drinks?
Hi everyone. I hope you are doing ok in this difficult time. I wanted to know if anyone has ever had a reaction to sodium benzoate (also known as E211), which is a preservative found in a lot of processed foods. Sometimes I feel that my throat/chest is a bit irritated when I drink Diet Coke but then

Have I got kidney disease.
I'm sorry to barge into the group but has anyone got a clue about my severe left side pain. I have low sodium at 130. Gfr at 69. Urine Osmolity at 95. Potassium 4.6. I also am type 1 diabetic. Hashi underactive thyroid. Any advice taken as my gp takes no notice of it at all.

Off topic: "Are Women the Fitter Sex?".
There was a very interesting programme on Channel 4 (UK) this evening with Dr Ronx, called "Are Women the Fitter Sex?". It discussed how women and men respond differently to the Covid virus infection, and how clinical testing can fail to take account of meds affecting men and women in different ways
