Coming back again for some lovely support 😊
Hello I haven’t been on here in a while but I need a boost of some of the wonderful wonderful support that I always get here. I had postnatal psychosis and a new diagnosis of bipolar last June 2022, and I haven’t been stable since then. My mood is now stuck in a pattern of n 10ish good days and then

OTC Lithium supplementation for PD
Hi all, just wondered if anyone is actively taking lithium and has noticed any benefits? Dr. Thomas Guttuso is a neurologist in the US who has been working with Parkinson's patients for 22 years. In his recent book, 'The Promise of Lithium', he gives quite a convincing rationale as to the potential

Medication absorption / metabolisation
Does anybody have information on factors affection the absorption / effect of stimulant medication? I already know about the effect of vit C and other acidic foods etc and that alkaline things like bicoarbonate of soda can potentially prolong the effect of medication. I've also read that low zinc levels

Sue perhaps you can help me, I have been successfully relying on diet for years but RLS seems to be catching up. I am in Australia. Perhaps its simply a matter of getting older (currently 79) but a couple of other things might be a problem. I tore a hamstring muscle or tendon that apparently caused

Gabapentin and Oxycodone
Hi I'm back, looking for more advice from the wise ones on HealthUnlocked. I recently came off Pramipexole and persuaded my (UK NHS) neurologist to prescribed Oxycodone/Nalazone. I take 10mgs in the morning and 20 about 7.00pm (any later and it doesn't work). This led to an improvement, but my sleep

Is it really necessary to take Alendronic Acid with these results?
I am 72 years old and have been diagnosed with osteoporosis/osteoporotic (Iam not sure which as the report refers to both). The results of my tests and recommendations are as follows:- Indication: PTH Risk Factor: Excess alcohol, fractured wrist age 64, maternal hip fracture, Secondary Osteoporosis

My husband doesn’t trust me
After my PP in October 2021, my lithium went out of therapeutic range in August 2022 and I ended up back in hospital for a month. This morning, my husband got out some sertraline to return to the chemist. I moved it from the buggy to my bag so it wouldn’t fall out. He insisted on going into the pharmacy

On Lithium, have hypothyroidism,no longer responding to T4 and less to T3. Starting low iodine diet.
I have just started a low Iodine diet as set out by a recent book advocating this to reset the thyroid for Hypothyroidism patients. I have been on Lithium by Bipolar for 15 years. 7 years ago I developed Hypothyroidism. Initially I partially responded to T4 but after 3-4 years I completely slowed down

Alpro Almond Milk..... why do they do this? Any chemists have words of advice?
I stopped having cow's milk sometime ago and have been very happy using Alpro Almond milk instead. It contains Vitamins D2, E, B2 and B12 and calcium as shown in the photo. I noticed today that the packaging had changed and thought to myself "I wonder if anything else has?" So I checked. Yes indeed

wondering about lithium orotate
I have recently been told, by a naturopath , that when receving B12 injections it is a good idea to take 5mg of Lithium Orotate daily. They felt it helped transport B12 out of the blood stream and into the cells. I am wondering if anyone else has heard of this? I don't know if it is some kind of scam

finished Neupro taper and looking for guidance on increasing my Gabapentin dosage
I’ve been taking Neupro 1mg and 400mg x 2 Gabapentin daily for my RLS. In the last 3 months I tapered off Neupro (1mg to 0.75 to 0.5 to 0.25 to 0) with my neurologist since I was experiencing more RLS symptoms despite being on Neupro. My RLS symptoms appeared most nights during the taper and I managed

A BIT OF A SCARE
Last week I had a bit of a scare regarding my pacemaker fitted in February. I have a unique pacemaker one set up only for me. Prior to this there was nothing to help me and for the past year I have been living with tachycardia and a heart rate of 150+ I have a typical flutter and a fib as well as heart

update on hubby
Hubby was feeling very bad earlier in the year from what turned out to be overdosing of levodopa when they changed him to the ER madopar. This caused severe rigidity even in his throat, agitation and sundowning in the evening, and eventually he kept trying to escape in the night to try and kill himself
