Supplement overkill?
Hello, after my cancelled egg collection I am now going privately. During this time I’ve read ‘it starts with the egg’ and as I am 33 with an AFC of 4 and AMH of 3. something I started taking everything! Now I’m worried it is a bit overkill and also it’s really expensive. I know it’s hard for someone

Aleve use for pain other than pmr
I have found the occasional use of an Aleve helps so much with pain when I am decreasing the prednisone. Most of my pain comes from my back fractures. As I reduce the pred. My back aches get worse. Does anyone know why an Aleve would be worse for me than some of the meds they suggest that have much

First night on Buprenorphine
So today I took 0.2 mg of Buprenorphine, thinking it was better to start low. The effect was incredible. My legs didn't move at all. In fact, the effect was so effective that I even got scared. My body was so relaxed. I got a little anxious that I may not wake up if I felt sleep. I layed there amazed

question
I started tapering prednisone 10 one day 5 the next for 4 weeks starting 25/6 and since Thursday all of my symptoms are back well my pleural effusion is definitely back with a vengeance. Could this be down to the reduction? Sorry my heads all over the place, my breathing hurts and I’m in so much pain

Suppressed TSH on combined therapy
Is there data/medical papers I can give my doctor as to why T3 is suppressed on combination therapy? I have tried looking at the Nice guidelines but they all seem against using combination therapy.Thanks Sue

Interesting research
Just saw this interesting research on DNA cause of inflammatory bowel disease, but they say it might also apply to autoimmune liver diseases. https://amp.theguardian.com/society/article/2024/jun/05/bowel-disease-hope-researchers-find-biological-pathway They hope treatments will be in use within 5

COVID between cycles and impact on egg quality ... Any knowledge/ experience?
Hey all - so I was meant to start my next cycle of IVF in 3 weeks time. I have been so healthy; haven't caught a cold or even a sniffle for the past 12 months but have somehow managed to pick up COVID from somewhere. I've had 3 vaccines and COVID once before but am still testing very positive 6 days

Stimulation period and exercise
Hello everyone,I am doing IVF through the NHS and I am now waiting for the next stage which is ovarian stimulation. The doctor told me in the first appointment that during stimulation I won't be able to do any exercise because of the ovarian torsion. I understood this was for two weeks but I have been

Thyroid Dysfunction and PD

Doc, I'm photophobic, can't open my eyes in the morning ALO, blepharospasm...Read it's predictive years before

MTHFR and Lupus
I noticed that some members have both of these diagnosis as well as Sjogrens. No one ever checked my homocysteine level until after I had Complete Heart Block and was implanted with a Pacemaker/defibulator. I have always felt that if the MTHFR was diagnosed before all the other autoimmune diseases, I

Nafarelin/Synarel down reg - when did you get period?
Hi I'm currently doing the above nasal spray for my down regulation as I was told there is a nationwide shortage of buserelin which I used in my first cycle. I started on Saturday 4th May and was told I should get a period in around a week but still no period or signs of it. Has anyone done the same

Heartburn
I know that PPIs are taboo but what about famotidine and it's cousins? I am in need of something longer lasting than Gaviscon. Thanks.

Can you help regarding symptoms?
Full disclosure here. My ability to determine my health status is lacking. I either over-react or under-react. I never believed I had PMR but I also didn't believe I had a ruptured appendix. I am a hard worker, managing a small farm so I do feel sore at times. I am presently on 10 mgs prednisone. I

Update
I’m now down to 15mg and my stomach is still swollen but cause seems to be Serositis. My pleural effusion are 200/300mls left side and zero right side with now minimal around pericardial so steroids are definitely working indicating cause is definitely autoimmune and possibly PMR . I still don’t feel
