Reboot, reset
I have come to the slow realisation 2 years post abi that my whole life has been reset. I have learned to walk all over and gradually have relearned who i am. This feels like a knowledge of the core of who i was as im not exactly the same as i was before, ie less tolerant, less able to argue efffectively

RLS and progesterone birth control... trigger?
I was doing really well on 10/325 hydrocodone every night plus 1/2 pill of my .25 mg Requip to keep the RLS at bay. But lately, I have had a series of really bad nights (and then DAYS) when I can’t seem to get relief from my regular meds. The only thing I can think of that is different is that I got

NK question
Hello all! Congrats on all the good news I read :) I found out about these NK cells august 2020.. after failed FETs.. I went to an autoimmune specialist who informed me of the elevated NK cells. As a result I went on more supplements, started some extra medications 2 weeks prior to FET and weekly intralipid

Severe Covid infection is viral sepsis
Some of us who have been dealing with the aftermath of sepsis, septic shock & post sepsis syndrome have watched all the emphasis on long Covid and felt huge empathy for their suffering. Now we are starting to see confirmation of something that we surmised months ago. https://www.healthleadersmedia.com

Thicker Neuchal Fold Translucency identified in 12 week scan
Has anyone else experienced this at their 12 week scan? The measurement is apparently accepted at 3.5mm or below and mine was 3.9mm. We have been referred to a specialist unit at another hospital next week but I'm naturally now worrying myself sick!! My consultant mentioned the risk of chromosomal abnormalities

I have given him Mucinex but don't know if this is the same and is ok to take.

Experience with smooth endoplasmic reticulum in eggs ?
Hi fertility friends ! I just had my first egg collection on Saturday and managed to get two mature eggs . Both apparently contained smooth endoplasmic reticulum . One of these was fertilised and we are just waiting to see what sort of embryo it makes. The embryologist didn’t tell me what this meant

Coke helps - very strange
I've had RLS for almost 20 years. I take Pramipexole and it totally works. But, yesterday, I learned something new. I have never, never had caffeine any time after noon because it makes me jumpy and I don't sleep. (I don't sleep well anyway, so the caffeine meant I didn't sleep at all). But, yesterday

Glutamate triggers!
First line treatment goes after how the body absorbs glutamate. Not surprisingly foods high in glutamate are triggers for me, and I assume would be triggers for others (yes, we are all different). The reason I mention this is some of the foods high in glutamate, like parmesan cheese (all aged cheeses

Targinact working
I have been on Targinact for 2 weeks in conjunction with Gabapentin & Ropinirole - it's been transformational , with no more standing up swaying during the evening plus I am sleeping much better now. I would say 95% gone. I hope it's not temporary as that was my experience with Ropinirole years back

Covid: How a £20 gadget could save lives
Not sure if this has already been posted but thought it was very interesting. Link to BBC site below. One of the mysteries of Covid-19 is why oxygen levels in the blood can drop to dangerously low levels without the patient noticing. It is known as "silent hypoxia". As a result, patients have been arriving
