Breathless on period
So I have noticed that on my periods I get exceptionally breathless doing normal things like brushing my teeth or talking. It only seems to appear when I start bleeding and stops when my period does. This is new for me, and honestly felt a bit wheezy when I went upstairs. I bleed super heavy but my iron

I have another appointment with Dr Cooper in the morning to have a nerve induction test and will discuss all options including my iron levels. I have been doing some research on Vanderbilt university medical who is on the RLS list and at least one of the doctors take my insurance so I may be traveling

DO YOUR RESEARCH. Cure yourself.
PXN21 has worked wonders for all my symptoms. I have been having symptoms of Parkinson’s/IBS for several years now which have progressively gotten worse. Now mind you I’ve never been diagnosed with anything, the key thing is catching all these things early and treating them, not just treating the symptoms

Does anyone have any direct experience of Targinact?
Hi Everyone, this is my first post but I've been reading everything on this forum for a while now. I'm in real trouble with augmentation after taking ropinirole for 11 years. I successfully tapered off and was completely free of it by April 2023, however the RLS remained severe, and in October I decided

Aspirin-induced gastritis and gastrointestinal bleeding
I haven’t taken an 81 mg coated aspirin every day for 18 years. Last month my doctor noticed that my iron level had dipped down to 16 from 64 in previous years. She suggested that I was having internal bleeding. Over the last couple years I’ve lived with stomach pain. Often just a two out of 10

Ropinerol withdrawal.... what now?
So after 15 years I'm off Requip. I'm now 4 days in with zero meds for RLS. A few contradictions of how long it takes to fully leave your system, however, I was hoping that my RLS would magically disappear along with my meds. Unfortunately, thats not been the case. Cannabis didn't help, it just left

My journey to date
I want to thank everyone who has taken the time and interest to advise me on dealing with my RLS. To update, I am fortunate to live near a clinic that deals with movement disorders and have begun seeing a specialist who treats RLS. She has prescribed gabapentin- didn’t work- and now has me on pregabalin

Latest results and problems raising dose
TL;DR - should I continue to try increasing my NDT dose slightly (from 1.75 to 2 grains per day, split dosing) based on the test results below, though I am getting some symptoms after increase (mild anxiety, hot flushes and sweats, and palpitations)? Further info/details below the results Inflammation

changing from Armour to levo
Hi all I take armour thyroid and have done for over 10 yrs now. I was originally prescribed this by a private doctor but further down the rd I found a way to buy Armour myself so I self medicate. I test my levels regularly (probably every 4-6 months) and I’ve felt in a good place for years. That’s

Transitioning from NDT to T3 (slowly) - anyone done this? Or combines NDT with t3?
Hello there, After many years unsuccessfully on Levo, then NDT, NDT+T4, I'm trying NDT and T3...and it's tricky. My timing might be incorrect, I take now 3 daily doses and I'm feeling overmedicated in the afternoon (tight chest, dizzy, weird energy, hunger, sweaty feet, blurry vision etc.). I take

The objective of procedure was to see if any gastric issue causing blood loss / anaemia/ very low iron. Consultant keen to try again but this time agreed to use CT colonography

Iron and B12
