Hi, I had RAI treatment after two and a half years on carb. because my consultant said if I continue carb. It would lead to liver failure. RAI is ok. You have to watch your weight increase. It's not a cure all. My symptoms apart from tachycardia still exist. Some are known to worsen after RAi such as

Reducing pregabalin
I'm down to 250 mgs pregabalin and there has been no difference to when I was taking 400 mgs. I try to have no sugar which I think helps. This evening I didn't take tramadol or codeine and although I've had mild rls I've copied with it. After going to bed I watched some TV. I had a coffee when my legs

Recent CT doesn't show any change to my bone mets, no nerves are being pinched either so onc can't attribute it to that, however the CT does show a 1cm progression in 1 of the liver

Poor nail quality
Does anyone else have extremely poor nail quality? My nails are in a terrible condition..if they grow 1 mm, they split and break. They look like I do 15 hours of manual labour a day. I have considered acrylic nails but think that would only make matters worse. This is accompanied by increased hair

In 2003 I was diagnosed with over active thyroid. I received RAI treatment which knocked it under. I went onto Levithyroxine which for years seemed to be okish. Then three years ago it stopped working . We tried anything and everything and have currently settled on Teva liquid Levithyroxine which though

Salmon Protein Hydrolysate
New study below [1]. Anyone here using
Salmon Protein Hydrolysate
? FWIW: "A growing body of evidence implicates iron dysmetabolism in prostate cancer progression. A bioactive peptide-rich salmon protein hydrolysate (SPH) has previously been demonstrated to modulate iron homeostatic mechanisms.

The chewing gum test
I was diagnosed with PMR April 2021 and GCA October 2021. I have been really struggling this last few months with pain all over and fatigue. GP would not advise to increase Prednisolone (currently 8mg) until I see a Rheumatologist and prescribed Codeine for the pain, which I am unable to take because
