Tylenol 3 with Codeine…I need a substitute…Help
I’m stage 3b and maintaining. I just had foot surgery this morning. My orthopedic surgeon consulted with my nephrologist and decided Tylenol 3 with Codeine would be best to start . If that didn’t work I could take low dose Hydrocodone/Acetaminophen 10-325mg. The Tylenol 3 is making me vomit, but

Concern about Levothyroxine
Anyway my question is, I understand Levothyroxine contains
iodine
- to replace the missing
iodine
in the thyroid, but am obviously worried that once my TSH is high enough for my GP to prescribe it, I wont tolerate it.

Chronic Pain Pharmacist Appointment. Meds advice please.
Finally, have my appointment next week. I’m currently just taking Citalopram 20mg and Ibuprofen and Codeine and co-codamol as needed. I find the Co-codamol gives me terrible rebound headaches but Ibuprofen and Codeine (Neurofen Plus) weirdly does not. Codeine also affects my sleep badly. It sometimes

Alpro Almond Milk..... why do they do this? Any chemists have words of advice?
I stopped having cow's milk sometime ago and have been very happy using Alpro Almond milk instead. It contains Vitamins D2, E, B2 and B12 and calcium as shown in the photo. I noticed today that the packaging had changed and thought to myself "I wonder if anything else has?" So I checked. Yes indeed

Clonazepam, Oxy, Perampanel...oh my!
I've been to see Prof Walker who has prescribed me Clonazepam, if that doesn't work he wants me to try Targinact (Oxy) or Perampanel. I'd love to hear back from y'all with your experiences with these medications (positive or negative). [u]

struggling with nerve pain after amputation and burn
Hi, I am new to this community and hope I can unload a little bit because I am struggling with nerve pain. I burnt my foot by spilling boiling water over it over 3 years ago, the burn was healing very slowly, I kept getting infections, cellulitis, and swelling. It got to the point that they had to amputate

I really need some help please...
Hi, My partner has encouraged me to join this group as I'm in a big mess with my RA. I'll try and keep it as brief as I can. I was diagnosed with RA (Sero Positive/CCP Positive) in 2021 and given Sulfasalazine. (My partner was trying to get pregnant, so no Methotrexate). My symptoms were joint pain

Can we talk about diet and supplements please?
It’s also often mentioned that we shouldn’t supplement
iodine
, however, this seems to only apply to people on levo, as levo replaces the
iodine
and further supplementation would create an excess which is not good for thyroid problems.

lidocaine infusion?
Good afternoon everyone. I have Occipital/Trigeminal Neuralgia and have had a variety of treatments for the past 7 years. Most recently a nerve block which went wrong and left me in worse pain. My last option is a lidocaine infusion which I am waiting for. I take Pregablin/codeine/migraine meds etc

Morphine & Oramorph.
Hi all, My dad is now bedridden with CBD. He appears to be in constant pain. Although he can't verbalise. Codeine is no longer keeping him comfortable. Today the GP has prescribed morphine twice daily and Oramorph in between. Has this proven to be an affective pain relief for others please. He already

Survey on diet, nutrition and health knowledge and awareness - Final Reminder!
Iodine
, a nutrient found in dairy and some fish, plays an important role in thyroid disease, but is not well known by the public. Understanding how people gain information about diet and (thyroid) health, to convert it into practice is important to inform awareness campaigns and medical education.
