SOD or Autoimmune
Saw a private heptologist last night. He has narrowed all my symptoms down to 2 possibilities: Sphincter of Oddi Dysfunction (SOD) or Autoimmune Hepatitis I have to come off codeine completely, remove onions and wheat from my diet (and dairy but I'm vegan anyway) for 6 weeks and then reintroduce slowly

Burning legs
I want to appeal to all the knowledgeable RLS sufferers to see if they can help my dear husband who has been suffering from burning feet and legs. It has been diagnosed as a nerve trapped in lower spine which has been troublesome for years and is pretty wonky. He has had cortisone injections in the past

Does anyone else just feel fobbed off all the time?
So I am having a really bad flare up - I am on day 5 and have just been in so much pain. I have been up to the doctors and hospital and sent home with codeine (which actually isn’t that helpful as it causes more issues) and I have been referred to the specialist which is about an 8 week wait. Any tips

Anyone else feeling sick on multi vitamins???? 🥺🤢
I’m currently on Pregnacare but think the

An outcome I was told wasn't possible ..
Plus I took, (and still take) huge quantities of vitamin C (2,000mg per day) & vitamin D 28,000ml,
Iodine
, Turmeric, Ginger, , green teas and regular Tuina massage treatment. I luckily found somebody who has guided me through this extreme vitamin regime.

Pregabalin **Update from previous post **
I will copy and paste previous post and update accordingly. Been suffering severe RLS for over two years since stopping pregabalin very abruptly in February 2020 (which I regret) for anxiety. Prior to that had adverse reaction to Lorazepam (January 2020). Was also on Mitazipine (stopped May 2020) and

Has anyone tried Mirtazapine?
My doctors put me on these. I’d say there great for sleeping but don’t seem to be helping anything else. I am still using codeine to control the symptoms. I don’t use them every day. But I find they work. The most I use is 3 or maybe 4 on a bad day. I prefer them to Imodium because for some reason Imodium

Pfizer and diaphragm problem
After having Pfizer I believe it has caused a diaphragm problem problem for me. I had my second shot in May. Shortly after I was selling all my furniture and ending up sleeping on pillows on the floor as I sold my bed. I had a few aches at first but on my right side it was there constantly. I just

Making T3 chemically
For T3, all you do is to react the correct one of the sites with a chemical that masks it from
iodine
binding, but which can be simply removed after the iodination step. All that is done therefore is to mask the site, react the molecule with
iodine
and then remove the blocking agent.
