Medication
I have a doctor appointment to discuss increasing my medication & possibly take a sleep aid. I’m currently taking 20 MG of Escitalopram but have not tried a sleep aid. I’m really nervous about my appointment tomorrow.

Lab results help & talking to doctor about med changes
I talked to my doctor before my lab work about possibly changing the dosage of my levothyroxine or even adding T3 because I still don't think I am optimal. She gave me a " we will see" response and said she doesn't want to mess with it too much because adding one thing can make something else wonky.

alpha-lipoic acid
hi all, can you take alpha-lipoic acid at anytime of the day away from thyroid meds? I’ve got burning mouth syndrome/metallic taste in my mouth and read the above can help (with vitamin c and L Lysine) but it can interfere with thyroid meds? Many thanks 🙏🏼

osteoporosis and spinal fractures
Hello, I have been a member on health unlocked forums for many years due to other health conditions. I joined this bone health forum last year 2022, following three fractures out of the blue. (The first whilst cleaning my teeth and coughing) this was last February 14, happy Valentine’s Day lol 😂

Odd things that you learn...
So I had my pre-op checks a couple of weeks back, today was due to sign consent forms, chat with pharmacy etc but it got postponed. Pharmacy then phones a bit later to discuss when to stop my cocktail, so we have a mix of 1, 2 & 3 days before except for 1 one, my over the counter Omega 3 fish oil. I

Please can anyone help with my latest blood results

Alendronic Acid
I have just been given alendronic acid by my GP to protect my bones. I have been reading some of the side effects and not sure whether to start this medication. I also read on nhs website that may need advice before taking if you have kidney problems. Does anyone else take this medication? I am thinking

Unlocking the Maze of B Complexes: A Handy List for Safe Dosages and Bioactive Vitamins
It can be quite challenging to find reliable B-complex supplements that are safe in terms of dosage. Additionally, it is advisable to opt for bioactive vitamins for added safety.

Alendronic acid and dental wirk
Does anyone have a similar experience or advice please? I finally started taking Alendronic Acid on Monday under pressure from a GP who said I should not delay.

Laurie Mischley on Using High DHA Fish Oil to Reduce Levodopa-Induced Dyskinesia (Updated)
https://youtu.be/piDgzpD7oOQ?si=hZfSiPMEqAAg_Kbc Dr Mischley also recommends citicoline. I strongly discourage anyone who is not already using citicoline from starting, because: "patients treated with citicoline experienced a significant worsening 45 days after the medication was discontinued". For

anyone used myovvii device ?
hello everyone, curious to find out if any of you have used the myovvii device that is promoted on instagram for period pain and endo pains? Apparently it sends signals to your brain to change where the pain is being detected. A little bit like acupuncture which I have also read about. I’m currently
