Hypnosis
Has anyone tried hypnosis? My RL started after a head injury. I think it affected my nervous system and brain, causing my restless leg problems. DR prescribed 1200 mg Gabapentin and 400 mg of Magnesium. I am uncomfortable as my RL occurrences are all over the place. Hence wondering if Hypnosis would

Why is RLS affecting my arms for the first time now that I’m off pramipexole?
I finally weaned off pramipexole 19 days ago and for the past three nights not only have my legs been jumping nineteen to the dozen as they’ve always done, but my arms have too! This never happened when I was taking pramipexole so I wonder if anyone can tell me why it’s happening now? I’m taking 300

OPTIMAL TEST LEVELS ?
Can someone please briefly address my recent test levels. Please be aware I am decidedly unscientifically minded and find it hard to follow the science…and certainly to retain it ! So ..please give me numbers… I can’t quite get the whole iron picture ..serum iron, transferrin and serum ferritin… But

100-150mcg of T3 but STILL COLD AND TIRED
Hello I am a 31 year old female. I have SELF DIAGNOSED as hypothyroid (normal TSH, LOW free T3, normal(ish) free T4). I had an eating disorder for 20 years and this can disrupt the HPA axis making TSH and T4 normal but T3 low due to conversion problem. I KNOW the dangers of self-medicating but I was

The 'right' kind of Magnesium supplement?
For the past couple of years I've been taking Magnesium L Threonate, for night cramps and it's worked extremely well but a couple of weeks ago, I had to switch to Magnesium Oxide as I couldn't get my usual. In any case, since I switched, my tummy has not been right (diarrhoea). Could the Magnesium Oxide

How to Increase BDNF
Unless you suspect your BDNF levels are low, or you have a
deficiency
in omega-3s,
magnesium
, or zinc, there’s probably no need to prioritize supplementation.

Does anyone take supplements as well as B12 injections ?
Hi Everyone My doctors have started me on B12 injections and I’ve had 2 loading doses out of the 6 so far . I’m wondering if people still take their B complex supplements on top of the injections so you get all the B vits still ? And if so what strength? I’m feeling very tired today after my second

Blood test help
Hi I wonder if you'd mind raising any problems with my bloods please. I recently saw an endocrinologist for my chronic insomnia, which I believe is caused by my low cotisol/low DHEA. I am always struggling with low ferritin, and even more now I've gone off liver and liver pate. I am trying to eat

Addisons?
Hi, thoughts please from the wisdom of this forum. My 22 yr old son (adopted) has diagnosed attachment disorder and ADHD. He suffered fainting spells 16/17 and had heart tests and was put on tilting table. Nothing conclusive. Temperature is always low. Had one cv injection, had a bad reaction. Always

Magnesium supplement advice please
I've been taking magnesium glycinate supplements, no sure if they helped but heho, I've ran out so I need to reorder. I don't want the same brand as they were huge! I've searched on here and it looks like taurate might suit me better as I struggle with ectopic heartbeats a lot. Can any of you recommend

Memory worsening
I have recently increased my dose from 25/50 alternate days to 50 every day. My memory is worsening. I completely forgot my husband’s birthday today although I know I remembered it a few days back. I was writing my Dads birthday card last week and wrote To and then couldn’t remember what I was doing.

Bloodwork results-what do you think?
I followed testing guidelines (testing before 9 am no levothyroxine for 24 hours). I asked to have my ferritin tested, but the nurse told me they would only test that if my magnesium blood test came back abnormal. I was previously on 25 mcg of levothyroxine and they bumped me up to 50 mcg. They wanted

Private GP? Can they help?
Hi all, I have ordered a private blood tests this morning thanks to this group. Long story short I’m on 75mg of LEVO and have been for 6 years. I have been working with a PT on a calorie controlled gluten free diet for over 6 weeks with little results. The PT suggested I looked into T3 conversation

Very dry eyes and constipation linked to dose decrease?
So me going down from 112mcgs to 100mcgs failed after 3 weeks. No blood test to confirm it yet but I'm supposed to get more blood work done at the end of the month. But are dry eyes a hypo symptom? Also started having bad constipation and bloat. Magnesium Citrate 600mgs a day doesn't seem to be working
