Antibiotic therapy. Now I have severe insomnia
On February 25th, 2024 I must have injured my gum and I got a tooth/gum infection which was treated first unsuccessfully with amoxicillin, then successfully with cephalexin for 7 days (Mar 3rd - Mar 10th, 2024). The night that I finished the cephalexin I had difficulty sleeping (5 hr 51min). Each night

cytomel and food
this is likely a silly question, but do the same rules apply to cytomel as synthroid when it comes to taking on an empty stomach? My synthroid bottle has a warning on it about not taking it with iron or magnesium and taking an hour away from food or drink. My cytomel doesn't have the same warning. Can

Typical…
Started taking magnesium supplement from the supermarket and slept really well and felt more relaxed and less joint pain. Have only been taking half a tablet every night for about three nights, with the intention of building up to a full tablet slowly. Today my bladder seems to be irritated, running

The new smart shoes for freezing gait
Just watched you tube related to "smart shoes" that use AI to develop a shoe to decrease freezing of gait. Uses the Neuro-modulation method of vibrotactile applications. NUSHUX magnesium. On the You Tube SmartXPDSeems like a logical approach Anyone know about this

Evening primrose oil and hashimotos
Hi, Does anyone know if there are any reasons to avoid taking evening primrose oil if you have hashimotos and take levothyroxine? Suffering with fibrocystic breast pain and have been told previously by GP that evening primrose oil can help with that, but wouldn't want to cause any issues to my thyroid

Low Iron
Hi guys! Like suggested lve done my full Iron panel! Could you please recommend the best dietary iron sources, except for liver pâté, which I'm already aware of? Also, if I'm unable to eat enough iron daily, are there any highly absorbable iron supplements you could recommend? I've been taking Spatone

Restless sleep
My husband was diagnosed with PSP in 2020. His sleep has become more restless lately kicking his legs, throwing his arms up and removing sheets and duvet then asking me to cover him up. He wears a CPAP mask but cannot always tolerate wearing it so pulls it off, something he would never do. All of this

Hi, can anyone offer any ideas as to why ferritin has jumped from 37(mid-June) to 85.4 this wk aside from infection please?
