Horrific mornings
Just a rant really in case anyone has similar experience. Every morning, without fail, is a nightmare. Regardless of the previous day and how I feel when I go to bed I wake with pain from nasty to severe to excruciating and need to expel the alien before I can think off getting out, by which time however

Vasospastic angina pain relief
Hi folks, Just wondering if anyone has been prescribed decent pain relief to take at home instead of having to call an ambulance? I’ve been admitted 5 times in the last 14 months with severe pain due to VSA which the GTN didn’t touch. Mine can last almost all day and go on for several days at a time

Rheumatology second opinion appointment
Hello everyone, so my husband had his second opinion with another NHS rheumatologist yesterday (same hospital), and I'd really appreciate people's thoughts on some of the things he said, as follows: 1) The pain, stiffness, heat and swelling across my husband's knuckles and proximal joints (both hands

Is it possible to get rid of excess iodine in my body?
hi all this might seem like a silly question but i going to ask it anyway. IS THERE SUCH A THING AS AN ANTIDOTE TO REMOVE EXCESS IODINE FROM THE BODY THAT IS STORED IN MY CELLS? The excess iodine is playing havoc with thyroid numbers. I have no thyroid and resent numbers were: TSH 11.9 FT4 12.0

Is it ok to take painkillers with Prednisolone?
I have recently had probable PMR diagnosis and am on day 2 of week’s trial on 15mg prednisolone. Too early to see if it’s having effect but had partially sleepless 1st night and PMR symptoms worse than ever this morning plus slight headache (but that could be lack of sleep). Before GP confirmed my suspicions

Pregabalin
I read a disturbing report in the media today regarding Pregabalin and addiction and also reports of death amongst Pregabalin users. The age report was from anything from 20,s to elderly. When Pregabalin was used with opiates the frequency of deaths rose sharply This is obviously most upsetting with

Painkiller for after Dental Procedure
So next week I’m going to my dental surgery to get three tooth implants. The first session is when they drill metal rods into the bone. Once the local anaesthetic wears off it’s very painful. I’ve had one done before now this time three at once!! Last time I didn’t know about my CKD so as I can’t take

Endo finally tested FT3! Thoughts?
At my last endo appt early Dec, the consultant kept his same stance that my blood tests were all in range and my symptoms were all due to perimenopause. He said there was slight room for a small increase in levothyroxine so ive gone from 125x5/100x2 to 125x6 /100x1 and told me to speak to my gp and

Association between different water iodine exposures & thyroid cancer: A retrospective study of high water iodine areas in China 2009-20
There are many differences between China and the UK. Including other aspects of water quality/analysis, diet, etc. For example, distribution of selenium in China is very complicated with adjacent areas sometimes have very different selenium intake.Therefore, we simply cannot pick up this paper and apply

lidocaine infusion didn’t work - I feel so down, what should I do?
I have severe chronic pain, and I’ve tried lots of medicines (nortriptyline, amitryptyline, co-codamol, codeine, tramadol, tapentadol), I’m currently on gabapentin 400mg x 3 times a day. But still in SO much pain. So I went to a private doc who suggested lidocaine infusions. I had my first infusion
