Gabapentin augmentation??
Hi you lovely people. At the end of April I reduced gabapentin from 1200mg to 900 mg (because of the brain fog, wooziness and balance problems I was experiencing) to 300mg gabapentin at 9pm then 600mg at around 11 pm. I also take 250mg magnesium in the mornings and 28mg iron at night on an empty stomach

This might be of interest for anyone who struggles to raise their iron levels or is frequently anaemic or nearly anaemic
I should point out that this paper is old. It was first published in 2000. The second thing I want to point out is that it has 176 references, which to my mind is quite bizarre, but some of them could be of interest. And thirdly, the link is to the abstract only but there is an option to "Save PDF

Newbie looking for advice on recent test result
I was diagnosed with an underactive thyroid in april 2022. What a rollercoaster! Do I have an autoimmune thyroid disorder? My first test was looking at reason for a change in bowel movements and fatigue. Doctor responded directly to the TSH level and placed me on 25mg levothyroxine. Serum

Living with Fibromyalgia
Good day. Its great hearing that I'm not the only one living with this awful condition. Some days I feel normal and the next useless. What happened?! I was always happy to be busy and take on jobs. Help at school. A business woman. Ran my own home bakery. My children are still young and need

do inactive ingredients such as magnesium in my Lexapro decrease synthroid absorption?
do I need to separate Lexapro at least four apart from synthroid due to inactive ingredients such magnesium, aluminum, titanium. Is that why my thyroid want stabilize because I am taking to close together?

ROPINIROLE IS THE DEVIL FOR SURE!
First developed RLS years ago, but didn’t even know it was a condition. I thought I was simply going off my head, until a nurse in hospital noticed the uncontrollable violent thrashing id do with my right leg (initially). She told me to go to GP when I was discharged and tell him about this unbearable

Sense-check, Hashi Swings, and inability to lose weight
I just wanted to sense check my plan for optimising my health, considering my latest blood tests have arrived. So scroll down to blood tests, as first, I am providing all sorts of contexts for reference. In short, I have Hashimotos and have been testing at least twice per year with Medichecks. Bio

Would appreciate advice on these results
I am new to the forum and the diagnosis so would appreciate any advice. In May this year I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's after my antibodies test came strongly positive. Then found out I have a thyroid nodule with two times indeterminate biopsy so recommended lobectomy. My latest labs (did them at

magnesium hydroxide. et al.
what is this exactly? I’ve been trying to get my head round the “57 varieties of magnesium” available in fizzy water, vitamin tablets etc. etc. I’ve read copious articles in this Forum and elsewhere but am none the wiser I’m ‘fraid. Has anyone got An Idiots Guide to Magnesium? Thanks.

Neutropenia and its effects.....
I was diagnosed with lupus by my rheumatologist in 2020. Since 2016 I have had low iron levels on numerous occasions, which was initially treated with oral iron with little effect. I was eventually given an iron infusion in May 2021. This brought my iron levels up for some time, but in April this

Maybe found some clues in bottled water
I think I have worked out why some bottled water upsets my IBS (D) and some doesn't. All mineral water has some natural bicarbonate. The waters that seem okay for me, I noticed have lower bicarb levels, and the ones that can upset me have much higher levels. I also found out that sodium bicarbonate

Increased PA Symptoms and Iron Deficiency
I have no idea if what I'm experiencing is just a flare or could be possible related to my iron deficiency issues, but I figured I'd post on here to see if anyone else has had a similar experience. I was diagnosed with both PA and Iron Deficiency without Anemia at the same time. I have been doing

About Iron
I'm asking a lot of questions - sorry - but I really have to get this problem sorted out, and this is such a great place to ask questions. When I first got RLS really badly, I read up and found out about possible iron deficiency. I thought this was strange as I eat huge amounts of food with lots of
