carbimazole & antithyroid arthritis
Hello, I’m a 33 year old woman, I was diagnosed with an overactive thyroid around 2months ago, was put on 15mg carbimazole a day. Started with a painful mouth ulcer so stopped medication & waited to see my consultant for advice as I didn’t know how bad the mouth ulcer had to be, he advised me to go back

Fibromyalgia Mandatory reconsideration notice PIP
Hi everyone I'm new here. I got diagnosed with fibromyalgia in January, I've been struggling for 3 years . I've had lots of tests, xrays, mri scans...nothing comes up!!. I'm on fluxotine, pregabalin, codeine and Naproxen. This is my second time applying for PIP and yet again I've been refused

Muscle Relaxers?
So I think we established that NSAIDs we’re no-gos, with Naproxen the least objectionable and codeine as a possibility for strong pain relief, and paracetamol/acetaminophen for regular pain relief. How about muscle relaxants? Are there any that are safe with Afib? Thanks so much!

Strange?
Yesterday I woke up feeling really rough, banging headache and nausea. I took some OTC paracetamol and codeine (12mg),one dose at 5 a.m and the last at 10.30 a.m. I do occasionally use this at night to help with RLS, but in this case I had nothing at all after 10.30 a.m. Yesterday evening I had an

Staying positive/ mind set
How do you keep going?! Until now my pain was manageable. But now nothing helps but codeine. I have 2 kids. I'm exhausted. I'm self employed so missing my work colleagues support network. Plan is to have a hysterectomy but can't have it for a year. I just feel very stuck. Are GPs supposed to help

Iodine urine test do's and dont's?
We have bought the Iodine urine test from Genova again, and having read the instructions we are a bit confused as the instructions on do's and dont's are a bit vague.

Can Sea Moss Gel affect your thyroid blood test
I recently had a thyroid blood test (nhs) and have been informed by my GP that the results show a slight abnormality and to re take the blood test in one month . The only change I have made is to add Sea Moss Gel to my morning drink , could this have affected my thyroid as Sea Moss Gel contains 92

High GGT Level
Morning All, so my GGT level is now up to 136 & my GP has requested a liver scan, I’m still waiting for the appointment. I’ve been virtually teetotal for 5 years, just the occasional drink on special occasions. I do/have taken a lot of paracetamol & codeine due to headaches from a previous brain operation

Ibuprofen with methotrexate and azathioprine
Hi all, I was wondering if anyone can help me. I am on methotrexate and reducing the azathioprine for my lupus. The trouble is I was told by the pharmacist she wouldn't give me ibuprofen as I was on the methotrexate. My rheumatologist said it was OK to take both so now I am confused. Is it safe or not

Hi everyone! I just stumbled across this website again and thought it may be a good place to seek advice from others who may have gone through similar events. So my story is a bit of an odd one. I’m 29 years old and I had always had heavier periods that were more on the painful side. But I was able

Goitre & supplementing selenium & iodine
Does anyone supplement with selenium & iodine? I have a multi-modular goitre which is not really causing any problems. I do not take any thyroid medication. I have had a lot of blood tests done because I have a lot of unexplained symptoms like fatigue, insomnia, aches, brain fog, digestive issues etc

Why do I have heart palpitations with these thyroid results?
Hello beautiful people. I would love to get your input as to why I get heart palpitations, high pulse and HBP with my current thyroid and other results. Yes, my TSH is slightly raised, but it actually went down from 6.9 in Nov to 4.9 in Feb on Levo 75 mcg, so it should continue to go down. I've

Possible CRPS?

Later diagnosed with Bile Salt Malabsorption. When I was around fifty the joint pain which I’d always suffered from since childhood began
