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

Buprenorphine
I am currently taking 300 mg Pregabalin around 7pm and 2x 30 g of codeine (sometimes 3x 30g) during the night. I am also taking ferrous sulphate at 10pm each night. This isn’t working. I take the first codeine half an hour before bedtime and maybe sleep for 1 to 2hours. I then have to walk around/have

Newly diagnosed
Hi all, diagnosed 4th May after episode of very rapid heart beats that wouldn't stop. Went to A & E where the diagnosis of AF was made. Stayed in for 5 days while they did CT scan of lungs and ultra sound of leg. Reason for that was that I had no symptom at all until a partial knee replacement 2nd March

Hello! New here! Can you take collagen supplements with potassium iodide at 50mg with Hashmotos disease?
I am very curious because I have leaky gut and want to supplement with collagen which I heard helps leaky gut. I heard potassium iodide is good for hashmotos as its like a detox for the thyroid. If you can help that's great thanks guys. Xx

Amitriptyline? Or something else?
I’m advised my by GP to take 30mg Amitriptyline daily. However, this amount makes my restless legs worse. I’m lying in bed now awake at 3am, so I’ve taken two paracetamols and 30mg codeine. I sometimes think the drugs we take makes things worse. What do you take for Fibromyalgia?

Update re carbimazole.
I haven't posted for a while since my husband ended up in hospital.The update is he was taken off carbimazole as he could not tolerate it. Saw Endocrinologist last Friday and he will be having Radioactive Iodine treatment to deal with his remaining half of the gland. Surgery isn't an option nor is

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

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

Codeine for RLS
Hi all, So I've been on Pregabalin for a year and a bit and still not slept a full night. Sometimes it's good and I can sleep for 5 hours straight, but other times...let's just say not so good! I've noticed sugar exacerbates the problem, as does spicy food and overeating. (I'm on the maximum dose of

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 😊
