Pain support
good morning I am new to this forum. I am undergoing bloods, x-rays etc to see why I am in constant pain, but my Dr has said Osteoarthritis in my knees and possibly fibromyalgia. I have pain in my knees for approx 8 years and the rest of the pain around 2. There are days/nights where I cry in pain.

AMD Injection Procedure
This is based on a response I gave to a regular poster that I think may be of more general interest, especially to those who have not yet had an injection or who are experiencing post injection discomfort. Note that the following applies to wet AMD only. I’ve been having injections for wet AMD for

worried about weight gain
Hi this is the 3rd time I've had graves disease in 9 years! I'm just wondering if my consultant will try to push me to have RAI this time as I was told I couldn't be on medication too long or often last time. Also I've worked really hard this year to lose lockdown weight & I'm worried about gaining

I had the worst pain of my life last night. I couldn’t get out of bed for 1.5 hrs!
I come on here sometimes to have a good moan. I’ve had RA since i was 21. (30 yrs). Plus Iritis & Glaucoma. I’ve had an awful time the last month. First i had a very painful flare of my Iritis. Deep throbbing, burning, aching in my right eye, very bad vision. Had to go to Moorfields a&e. Went at about

Hi - my 17 year old daughter has been experiencing hair loss and hair thinning. She attributed it to having got Cold but that was over a year ago now. She is stressed with all the A level work she has to do and trying to do well so that she goes to the university of her choice which requires high grades

Extremely High TSH
Ten months ago I nearly left this world. A lot of stress in my life and I thought I was just run down and tired. Long story short I ended up in ER severely anemic, got 2 blood transfusions and still low blood count so continued with the iron. Upon follow up, for some reason I requested my thyroid tests

Non-medical pain relief in pregnancy?
I'm 5 weeks pregnant, and my endo has been plaguing me. My GP and others keep telling me that the pregnancy hormones should kick in and suppress the endo symptoms, but I'm still waiting! I am taking token paracetamol and considering codeine, but am nervous about the potential risks so would rather

I would like to see a discussion of T4 & T3 Conversion. I believe I was dx with Hypothyroid and placed on Levo that made me sick.
Out of the blue on a random PE lab I was dx with hypothyroid because of an elevated TSH. I had no sx and had been walking 2 miles 3 times a week, eating reasonably well no junk or fast food pretty much ever, not a big water drinker. After 4 3/4 years of feeling like how they describe amphetamine users

Low iodine diet?
Much advice here to be careful to not add iodine supplements to diet with hypothyroid- but taking this a step further should we not all be careful to cut back on all the foods with the most iodine eg fish and prawns etc I read an article from someone who actively advises clients to cut back on these
