Bisoprolol and codeine
Has anyone taking these together, I'm on bisoprolol and I was in hospital yesterday with chest pains but they didn't find anything heart related causing the chest pains so they gave me codeine for pain and Omeprazole

Vitamin supplements
I currently take evening primrose capsules and vitamin D tablets together late afternoon (primrose includes vitamin E). Is it better to separate these or to take with food? They both have added incipients. Should I be looking for natural vitamins instead? Also, I have purchased some Liposomal vitamin

High(ish) dose Carbimazole long term?
(Sorry about highjacking another thread - couldn't figure out at first how to post a new one...) Hi - I've only just joined, but I'm interested to see that you have been taking Carbimazole long term. I've now been taking it for over 4 years; had radio iodine last May, which didn't work at all, so after

Wholefood Dessicated Thyroid Supplements
I was treated 25 yrs ago for overactive thyroid received RAI which made me hypothyroid and prescribed 100 mcg of thyroxine. I have never felt better with any brand or quantity of Levothyroxine and have given up with NHS doctors with regard to endocrinology. I have just completed reading a new book

lugols iodine
hi all, I’m starting a course of lugols iodine on Monday prior to a thyroidectomy. I’m quite gippy with things like that. Can anyone give me any tips, such as before or after food and also can you drink something sweet straight after to get rid of the taste. Thank you

GP knew less than I did about RLS :’-(
my RLS has got considerably worse and I’m at my maximum dosage. I called for an appointment with my GP and initially she said it did sound like I had RLS. Whilst on the phone she was googling it. She seemed to think iron wouldn’t help as I’m not anemic. I’m going to buy iron supplements anyway and

iodine and thyroid
Beware supplements with iodine. I am a thyroid cancer survivor who had half of my thyroid removed and recently started taking a supplement that had seaweed in it. At my annual thyroid check up (just a few weeks after starting the supplement) my blood work and thyroid function had changed. My doctor

Exhausted.
I am 30 years old. I started menstruating at the age of 10. When I was around 14, I would have these random "attacks" of abdominal pain that left me crippled. There have been occasions my mum had to lift me out of the bath, because I felt like my insides had totally twisted. Now, I shower. But there

postpartum thyroiditis
Hi, I'm 8 months post partum and had my bloods done for hair thinning and some aches and pains, and my thyroid levels have come back abnormal. Although my t4 level is normal at 14 my tsh level is 10.6 which after Googling seems to be very high. I'm retesting as it's been a month to check if the levels

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

Irish sea moss?
Someone was telling me yesterday that they use Irish sea moss and swear by it. Googled it and read lots of positive comments about its health benefits. Does anyone here use it? Does it mess with levothyroxine/thyroid as it’s rich in iodine? Thank you 😊
