Tinnitus louder than usual
I had inflammation in my right ear with headache, doctor gave me Otomize, but the headache was still there, went back to the doctor told me to see a pharmacist, they gave me nurofen, didn’t help, went back to the doctor again, they gave me antibiotics and codeine, this seemed to make my headaches worse

Dapagliflozin
I've had high blood pressure for a few years which I take a cocktail of tablets. Now Dapagliflozin has been added. I'm not diabetic. My dentist said to me are you diabetic I reply no. I went to see my GP and was told it will help with my BP. Question is am I taking tablets I don't need. Fed up of feeling

A lightbulb moment
I am currently taking 10mg immediate release Shortec Oxycodone at 6pm, 10pm and again when I need to during the early hours. I manage to get broken sleep which usually equates to 4 hours, which is better than I have had in the past. This works reasonably well, however, from early afternoon my arms

my ear infection healed but my tinnitus hasn’t
I had an outer ear infection this month that inflamed and blocked my ear canal, causing tinnitus. I took optomize and the infection went away, but the tinnitus stayed. The doctor examined my ears again and said they were fine, even though I still have tinnitus and sometimes itchiness. My ears are also

Confusion after hearing test
Hi folks, just wondered if I can get some opinions please? I was thinking my tinnitus which is a mild high pitched ringing mostly in my right ear, was caused by noise damage/hearing loss. I've had a couple of decades of being a working musician in bands, but the last 10 years or so have been performing

Flare up or just Fatigue?
I have tapered to 7.5 mg this month using Dorset Lady's table, but in the last few days I have pains around the hips which is only relieved by sitting down. I wake up around 4.30 a.m. and so have several spells of faitigue/deep sleeps in the early evening. When I am out I lean against counters

anticoagulants-or not..
I have read a number of articles which I think say that the protocol for when to add to the CHaDs s score for prescribing anticoagulants with AF was based on patients who were very obviously symptomatic whereas many newer patients have fewer symptoms and discover AF through smart watches / other devices

Finger misbehaving (!) ...Ulnar Deviation
Hello, I recently noticed my middle finger has gone bent towards the pinky finger. I couldn't believe my eyes and did internet search. It happens to people with RA and Lupus. A bit shocking. I have been doing mild squeezing exercise daily to help increase my hand strength. I think it may be due to

Dry eye medication
For several years since eye surgery I have been prescribed eye lubricants. The prescriptions always say Thealoz Duo Gel yet I have always been given the Thealoz Duo UD even when I questioned this several times. Recently I was given the Gel form and nothing else. Of course this is excellent at night

Liothyronin T3 and insulin resistance
I’ve been doing some research as my blood sugar levels (measured by HbA1C) have been persistently high despite exercise, low carb diet, weight loss and muscle gain. Prompted by the very wise SlowDragon that T3 can cause high sugars, I decided to delve deeper. I came across a lot of articles online

ThyroidDisease and Cataracts
Has anyone had any experience with developing cataracts and is there a potential link to thyroid disease? My ophthalmologist has told me my thyroid eye disease makes me a poor surgical candidate.and getting a second opinion is pretty much out of the question. I am 61 and an active sewer and the prospect

Hydroxycarbamide and lungs
I have been on hydroxycarbamide for nearly 9 years with no serious problems, but now I am getting slight breathlessness. I was surprised to read that this medicine can cause interstitial lung disease such as pulmonary fibrosis. I don’t remember it being mentioned on the forum. Of course some diseases

My tinnitus story so far (9 months and counting)
Here's my story so far, for if it helps anybody. Please comment if it relates to you in any way.
Day 1 - The start
I was at the office and I heard a weird roaring sound in my left ear. I went to the bathroom, held my nose and blew to relieve pressure like on a plane, but it was obvious this

ADT and crying
Does anyone else that has been on ADT drugs for years have trouble with tears or crying for no real reason? I tear up anymore at just the thought of something sad. It’s a major pain in the ass, not to mention embarrassing because I am still employed. Wondering if there is a solution other than stopping

Moving on from a Tracheostomy
Sorry - another question from me. As it was a slightly different topic, I thought I'd start a new thread. My dad has had a trachy now for just over two weeks, following two weeks fully sedated on a ventilator due to pneumonia. He is much improved and breathing unaided for 36 hours so far. He is also

Warfarin
For all those who have been happily on warfarin for years with well-managed INR yet are still being badgered by their GP to change to a DOAC with stories of reduced bleeding risk, this study should set your mind at rest that there is no reason to change whatsoever. 5 years ago my father reluctantly
