Physio post TKR lessons
I have just had my second physio appointment which was delayed (because of a bad UTI) and rescheduled closer to home. It was a revelation because I learnt that I had been concentrating almost entirely on the gold standard of a 90 degree knee bend. Instead I should have been building up my thigh muscle

Hip replacement
On 22nd January,I had a partial hip replacement following a fall.I have made a good recovery and my hip has healed well. But I am still very tired and I have sharp pains in my left shoulder and right wrist. I imagine it's a flare up... But it's odd that these two joints are causing far more pain than

Fostair hot flushes?
Newbie still, so lots of questions, sorry! I’m having lots of hot flushes - am taking Fostair 200/6 two puffs in am and pm. Are the meds affecting my HRT meds (anything I can do about that?) or is it just the steroid effect to add into the racing heart and shaking hands?

booked in for full hysterectomy
hey I had a lap back in October and it looks like the endo has returned so I’m booked in for a total hysterectomy! I’m really scared about it all. How are you after yours? Has it changed you at all? I’ve already started hrt and get on really well with the oestrogel especially with less adhd symptoms

Has anyone ever had an Iron infusion?
Having suffered from underactive thyroid for years and taking Levothyroxine with mixed results, I also suffer from low iron and ferritin and Vitamin D. I find it hard to get my levels of iron up despite eating red meat and green veg and supplementing, and wondered if anyone had tried an iron infusion

worried about thyroidectomy
hi everyone, I’m new here’ but not new to thyroid issues unfortunately. I got diagnosed with graves in 2017 after the birth of my first baby. Since then I have had countless relapses, they’ve all been managed with Carbimazole/ptu but as time goes on the time between relapses is getting way shorter and

Last fall I learned I have mold and I am going through a mold protocol. My compounded NDT has been adjusted in dribs and drabs over

anxiety
Hi there to all fellow sufferers. I was wondering if anyone out there has suffered with anxiety and depression in the past not due to perimenopause. I am 52 and suffered bouts of clinical depression and anxiety on and off for many years. I’ve had the majority of perimenopause symptoms for a few years

HRT shortages after oophorectomy
Hi everyone How is everyone coping, what have you done around the HRT shortages? For me it's the utrogestan, I paid for it back in February and was given 30 days worth (should have been 90). But they haven't had any in stock since. I am starting to get concerned about endo growing back, and how quickly
