My P.A. Story
Although my P.A. journey started “officially” on 10th May 1972 events from 13 years before may well have been the true beginning. Around Christmas time in 1958 I started to get “indigestion” pains in my left chest area and these got progressively worse until the Tuesday morning of 28th April 1959 when

Help needed to decipher blood results
My weight keeps climbing despite no obvious changes to my diet or exercise routines - all the excess weight in on my bust & tummy / hips. I often suffer with bloating & often have acid in my stomach & sometimes a feeling as if i have swallowed a stone, the DR has prescribed a daily tablet of Altosec.

Preparing for baby number 2
Hi, I haven't posted here before but I have read lots of your messages and gained reassurance. I had pp in Jan 2012, 7 days after the birth of my daughter. The psychosis lasted about 2 weeks but was followed by cycles of extreme low mood/anxiety which lasted 9months. After lots of different meds I went

Medication and weight gain
Hello ladies, It is 5 years since my little boy was born and all that happened subsequently...happened. I was diagnosed bipolar at the time, rightly I think, and lithium quite literally saved my life, though it didn't make me better all by itself. Subsequently I've been treated for further depressive

Colpermin questions
Hi, I have recently decided to try Colpermin to see if it helps with my very long-term IBS, but I have a couple of questions. Firstly, how long before and after taking Colpermin is it okay to eat or drink? Secondly, how long before and after taking Colpermin is it okay to take other medication, especially

Osteoporosis diagnosis
Trying to be brief but it's turning into a long post. My history- PMR symptoms started late Dec 2104. Stiffness in pelvis, shoulders, neck and limbs. No pain but movement severely restricted and a lot of fatique. Felt like I had aged by 30 years. Diagnosed end Jan 2015. Initially resisted steroids and

17 Months after PPP
Hi all- I came down with PPP in September 2014 after the birth of my daughter. My psychiatrist thinks I am bipolar. I have never had any history of mental illness though and I do not think I am bipolar. I am still on Lithium but I have been slowly decreasing my dosage. My question is- how do you know

Bottled Water
Just when you thought it was safe to go out lol. Still Scottish Mountain Water from the Co-op!! Thought I would move from my Brita filtered water to bottled water BUT, not thinking I should read the label, I did and look what I found mg per litre: Calcium <55mg; Magnesium >16mg; Potassium <2.0mg;

whats wrong?
I have had lots of blood tests that are out of normal range or positive. I have been pushed from piller to post and seen haematologist, kidney specialist, and now waiting to see a rheumatologist. I know non of my results are very low or high but they are all out of range and lots of them. It seems strange

Tired. Feel like giving up the battle.
This is my first post here. I signed up yesterday. I've been battling this shit for 10 months now. I've been more or less home bound because of it. For 10 months. I've been struggling with varying conditions during this period. At first, it was suspected SIBO. Antibiotics got rid of it, and I was happy

Oops a mix up
Had my water test done today, and had a call later in the day to say I had infection and to collect script for antibiotics, that was at 5pm, I have just had a call from my own Doctor, who has been so apologetic that there is a person with the same name and date of birth, and she picked up on it straight

Cluster headache
I've had daily cluster headache for the past five years now. I've had to leave uni, can't work and have lost most of my friends due to cancelling plans constantly because the pain is so bad. I see a neurologist at the Walton Centre and have tried every medication and injection available and am now trying

Lithium
I read recently that small doses (such as 2mg daily) could help B12 get to cells. Does anyone know anything more about it? Thank you.

potassium
My last blood test showed low potassium, just under the range, I feel as if I can hear my heart pulsing in my ears I also have long standing tinnitus in both ears. Do I need to take potassium, could this be the cause of my palpitations and heart pounding in my ears feeling? I'm so confused. The potassium

Hot Flushes, Normal Pulse and Temperature: Overmedicated?
I have many hot flushes per day but my temperature and pulse are normal. I increased my T3 from 5 to 10 mcg a few weeks ago and stayed at 150 mcg T4 as previous blood work suggested room for improvement in T3 (TSH: 0.12 (0.35-5.5); FT4: 15.9 (10-19.8); FT3: 4.1 (3.5-5.5), the latter done after leaving
