DBS update
So gang. 3 months following DBS. I had it done because my dystonia was getting so bad and the reliability of the meds was open to question. I might thrive on a particular dose of Madopar and then the next day would be stuck whilst on a walk after having taken the same. It was very hard to plan anything

Questions about TSH and advice on results over the past year much appreciated
Hi everybody, I've posted several times lately and I just wanted to ask for advice on thyroid related issues. I had COVID 3 times from June 22 - Jan 23 and was symptomatic each time. I did have a diagnosis of Fibromyalgia in 2018 but had been feeling a lot better in 2020 until I got COVID. Above

TENS advice
Can those who have had success with TENS share where they put the pads? I know we are all different but I would benefit from some experience. I tried them on my feet for 15 minutes each foot last night without any success. Thanks.

Nicotine Patch helps immensely.
For the last week, I’ve been wearing a 7mg nicotine patch with amazing results. Almost every night since I’ve slept through the night. My symptoms have improved, I have a much better sense of wellbeing. Nicotine has been known for years for its medicinal properties. Eggplant has the second most nicotine

Tens pain relief
Hi all I'm just looking for any information on the beurer em50. I've been looking everywhere for a storage case to make it better when carrying it round with me. Does anyone have any links or anything suitable if you use this too? I know this may not be the best forum but unsure where to ask. Thanks

I thought it was just a cold!
Not on ocrevus anymore, but I had the 1st of my monthly tysabri on the 20th, and I've since got a chest infection 😞 a couple of nights of not being able to sleep properly had really affected me, to the point where on Monday just gone I was wanting to get in to see a GP! But, when I called them up, they

I picked up a book and turned the page. My recovery had begun.
I was lucky, the author was later described as 'the woman who cracked the anxiety code'. She was nominated for a Nobel Prize for her major contribution to helping so many recover from anxiety disorder. She did this through her short books, consultations, newsletters and public appearances in person

I had a medical crisis, I didn't die, I wonder why
Last summer I had a medical emergency. The odds were it would kill me but I survived with few life threatening consequences. The problems I had are commonly fatal for 80 year old men. There is a message in my experience which I hope to share with you in this article. It is a bit longer than most

Practice run
Decided to dip my toe in this afternoon and do a run post the lurgy. I still have a headache but knew my energy levels were better. I was due to start W7 but decided to do a 20 min run instead just to see. Def experienced the toxic tens but enjoyed it once through that. Also, interesting that I considered

Heavy cold
Apologies if this seems quite trivial but I have had a heavy cold for the past 2/3 days which at present is getting worse. Have tested negative for Covid so no concerns about that so I’m just wondering whether to miss my medication tomorrow or whether it won’t make any difference. I take 20mg MTX but

DBS should I or should I not??
I'm sure everyone goes through this question over & over again!! Ten times, or more like 100 times in our heads when trying to make a decision and be happy with the choice made. I went for my assessment for dbs this week in Southmead Hospital,Bristol. I went through the test and just kept on thinking

I got covid and went to hospital. They said I have severe heart failure. Since leaving hospital my pro bnp level has dropped significantly. I think the covid caused the heart failure. Anyone hear of that happening?
