Sleep help with Tinnitus
Hi All, I’ve had a spike in my T since I was involved in a car accident a couple of months ago. I am deaf also so I wear hearing aids in both ears. I cope pretty well during the day and the hearing aids definitely help but at night it’s another story. As soon as I take my hearing aids out the noise

Hemorrhoids from higher cholesterol
I thought I'd ask if this is common for other people. I suspect my Hemorrhoids have got quite bad as a result of slightly underactive thyroid. My cholesterol is mildly high - 5.7 when it should be below 5. Also I have gilberts syndrome which is high bilirubin. When I fasted or went more than 6 hrs without

Bruising
I noticed someone mentioned bruising. I have hurt my right thump two weeks back cutting up veg. The whole of the thumb pad is dark mauve The pharmacist said it was a circulation problem and I bought a tube of Hirudoid cream 5 mg to put on 4 times a day. This is the first day. He knew I was on

I was diagnosed with PMR five years ago and my gp kept me on Prednisolone for two years which resulted in a catalogue of side effects including glaucoma and cataracts. My diagnosis was confirmed as RA shortly after. I have been taking methotrexate successfully since. However my condition has worsened

anismus
I have chronic constipation. I think it is casued by various muscles not relaxing as the symptoms fit what I have read online. There are vaious names for this, anismus, dysssergenic defaecation and obstruced defaecation. I looked on this site and this is one of the groups that seems appropriate to post

A Bladder Cancer Update.
I got a telephone call early this morning, I was still in bed. Was a woman offering me a place in a Private Hospital for A 'FLEXY CYSTOSCOPY' Good news but the hospital was miles away in Preston, in fact the other side. So I asked her could I not get in at my local hospital - She then started talking

Tinnitus for six weeks for no reason
Hi, I've now had tinnitus for six weeks. It's very high pitched (like one of those sonic cat scarers) and sounds like it's in my head rather than in my ears. I've also had on and off daily headaches for nine weeks. Been to the docs and she doesn't care - said the headaches and tinnitus weren't related

Cold water therapy
Hi everyone, Generally painkillers don't cut through my pain and they give me many side effects, so I am looking into alternatives. I was reading some research about cold water therapy helping with fibromyalgia and other autoimmune pain. I was wondering if anyone tried it for Endo?

Duloxetine - cold turkey and afterwards?
One of my tasks in the New Year (after discussing with GP) was to decrease Duloxetine and possibly try something else as the hyperhidrosis side effects were becoming so problematical for me and, after working well for nigh-on 3 years they also now had reduced effectiveness at controlling my pain despite

Spike
So my Christmas present was a spike in my Tinnitus. It seem to lower then spike again until New Year when the spike has remained. Its driving me nuts. I had made an appt with Audiology dept but to be honest what can they do? I find reading about Tinnitus & people's experience quite overwhelming.

Antibiotics for UTI symptoms
I suspect I have endometriosis after years of painful periods, painful sex and occasional bloating. My symptoms were menstruation specific.
