Can Someone be in the normal TSH range but still be suffering from Hypothyroidism
My daughter has been suffering multiple symptoms, reoccurring urology issues, aches and pains, IBS to name but a few. Her GP’s have only ever tested for TSH which has always been in the middle of the range. As I have autoimmune hypothyroidism as well as an autoimmune blood disorder should they be

Celiac and CKD
I am wondering if anyone here has celiac? I have stage 4 kidney disease and celiac. I’m tired all the time to the point that I am not exercising like I should. I need procrit shots weekly just to keep my iron levels at the bare minimum. I’m not particularly interested in eating which may make the situation

Which treatment after dopamine agonist withdrawal?
I'm currently fighting to withdraw from dopamine agonist (DA) after a severe augmentation. I was prescribed some other drugs to help me go through this process (tramadol, pregabaline, clonazepan, wellbrutin). My plan is to get back to my pre-DA RLS baseline level, and to treat them with pregabaline only

For those taking methadone, do you think it affects your sleep quality?
Having gotten rid of almost all (but not quite!) Mirapex nearly 2 years ago, my current meds are 0.125 mg Mirapx, 600 mg Horizant, and 10 mg methadone. Eventually I hope to taper the Mirapex to zero. I have a vulnerability to obstructive sleep apnea and once my specialist had transitioned me to increasing

Post 2nd Ablation Recovery
Hi All, I am 11-days in to my recovery from my second ablation procedure and wanted to check if anyone else has/had the symptoms I am suffering from; as I didn't have them after the first ablation procedure. I have two key ones as follows; 1. After walking for a few minutes and then standing still

treatment or no treatment?
it’s been almost 3 years since i was diagnosed with a Gleason 8 prostate cancer, confined to the prostate. To date I have elected not to be treated but instead have been monitoring my PSA levels. Originally this was 6 now 15. I am 66 with no symptoms and no other health issues. I have declined treatment

Levothyroxine
does anyone know if Levothyroxine is definitely gluten free as I’m coeliac and unsure if it’s not helping with my immune system.

Newly diagnosed metastatic PC treatment options
Hi, I'm 68 years old. Here are the key points in my story so far: In July 2023 a blood test showed a PSA value of 45. On September 26 2023, prostate MRI showed a dominant tumor in the prostate with extension into the right seminal vesicle. Also the fat plane between the rectum and prostate is lost

Fantastic Improvement!
Wow! What a fantastic improvement there is so far and wanted to share in case it helps anyone else. Also thanks to the members in here who gave me advice. I’ve increased my gabapentin to 1500mg (600mg at 6pm/600mg at 8pm/300mg at10pm) and one 30 mg dihydrocodeine with the 10pm dose. Now getting to sleep

Hi everyone. I have been diagnosed with fatty liver and have the red "Liver palms" I have been told this is a warning sign for a damaged liver. I have been abstaining for 2 weeks now.Can anyone tell me roughly how long this will last or does it only go away when my liver is back to normal? Thanks in

WHY WHY WHY
Suddenly my afib is visiting me a lot more frequently … it used to be every six months … now it’s every three weeks but it only lasts an hour or so and it converts to nsr. Today it happened when l returned from the gym and l was carrying very heavy bolders to put into a plant that keeps falling over

PS to Periodontal Abscess and Prednisone
Thanks to everyone who took the time to reply to my post about gum/tooth infections and prednisone. All the replies were helpful! I did manage to generate one last question. Did any of you who had tooth extractions go on to have dental implants? I am leaning against due to cost and issues related to
