Struggling to cope 😢
I’ve been on
mefenamic
acid
that helped the bleeding but not good long term use. It started to give me constipation and Diarrhea. Just worried if the coil doesn’t help what other options have I got. Thank you anyone reading this. Also so good to know I’m not alone. 💕

Protein intake and longevity
This Review paper available on Google Scholar is not about PCa but I found it interesting. The Abstract and a couple of sections from the paper are reproduced below. The main things I take from the study are that it is ok to have a high protein diet if you are an older person (66+) but go easy on the

Medicine/Supplement Regime (Mucuna etc)
I just thought I'd share my dad's current medicine regime in case it will help other people. After so many months of trial and error, we have finally found a dose that works for my dad. He takes it every 2 hours and 45 minutes with little freezing, has less dyskinesias, not much pain, a better appetite

XANAX EXTENDED RELEASE VS THE PLAIN
With my severe anxiety/depression my doctor referred me to a Psychiatrist for better care with meds.

Supplements while on chemo
Hi. Does anyone have a comprehensive list of supplements that should not be taken while on chemo? If I ask my onc he says to take nothing, whereas naturapaths recommend various things to mitigate chemo side effects. I take a probiotic and omega 3, plus a selection of other vitamins and minerals. I have

When to take the low dose aspirin?
My doc never gave me specific instructions so I just take it with all my other pills in the morning after breakfast. But my wife said on her first aid course they were told we take it at night as that’s the time the body would need it more. Now I don’t recollect my doc saying anything like that, but

Pain in the Neck
I have a painful throat, not a sore throat, it’s more the sort of pain I had before my diagnosis of GCA was made and Steroids started, I asked my GP if I could stop the Alendronic Acid for a week in case the pain in my throat was due to trauma. He said OK and agreed that throat sweets might be a good

Amitriptyline for Endometriosis - what’s your experience?
I’ve tried several painkillers now: codeine, mefanamic acid, tramadol, codydramol and naproxen. They’ve now prescribed me Amitriptyline and I was wondering what anyone else’s experience was with this drug or any other medication they have found useful with managing endometriosis pain?

Teeth, osteoporosis, alendronic acid
Taking alendronic acid well, no problems, for just over 20 years, with a 1 yr long break, a few yrs ago. Then dexa showed density decline so put back on it. Both mother and aunt had total spinal collapse long over a decade of their latter years, and sister with it too. I am upright and looking ok at

Should I take Omega 3 supplement post MI, as I hate fish?
6-yrs post MI and stents at the age of 43, I’m doing well on the usual meds. of Bisoprolol, Aspirin, Atorvastatin and Ramipril. Should I take an Omega 3 fish oil supplement, though, as I hate fish and can’t entertain eating it twice a week as recommended? I’d really welcome your advice, please as I’

Why do I feel so tired still when I wake up in the morning?
I have Graves’ disease and taking 5 mg of carbimazole recently reduced from 10 mg. I’m feeling a lot better than I did but never feel like I’ve had a good sleep. I wake up tired! My sleep is broken through the night sometimes but still manage to get at least 6/7 hours. I’m due a blood test next Monday

TDP-43, a common cause of neurological diseases
This crucial discovery points to a common cause of both neurological diseases such as dementia and motor neuron diseases such as ALS and Parkinson disease. Currently, most scientists do not see a link between ALS and Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, frontotemporal dementia (FTD), or other dementias

Melatonin & PMR
I am having trouble sleeping for the first time since going on prednisone 8 months ago. I know part (maybe most) of the problem is since reducing to 7 mg I have pain in my shoulders so wake up frequently to turn over. Wondering if melatonin at night would help. Information online seems to indicate it

No medication seems to be working to ease some of the pain
Me again. No medication seems to be working. I'm currently on 3 gabapentin, Naproxen, 2 Omeprazoles (stomach was slightly damaged in early may as I wasn't aware that you had to have a stomach lining tablet with naproxen... Dr didn't give any Omeprazole with the naproxen so was advised to take 2 of them

You're not my real mom! You just give me drugs (legal doctor scripts, so chill).
I hope you all forgive me because I think I'm hilarious when I write my titles but I am also usually exhausted and a little punch drunk from a long day. I got scolded this morning from my psychiatrist when she called me to see how I'm liking my new antidepressant prescription. Do you remember when you
