Hi, my consultant wants me to have a Trabeculectomy because my field test is not good, but, my pressures are only 10 and 11 in each eye. Has anyone else had a suggestion like this? I am worried my pressure will go too low and create more problems. Thanks

A few days ago (Saturday 25th of November) I got very unwell with severe stomach, cramps, diarrhoea, weakness and hot sweats. I had to take all of my clothes off and lie on the bathroom floor and had diarrhoea for around three hours (this has happened to me in the past with no answers other than that

Low cortisol .. next steps
Hello everyone I recently did the 4 point saliva cortisol test and the result was low cortisol at all 4 points, but particularly in the morning. It helped explain why I find it so hard to get out of bed and struggle with low energy all morning. My DHEA is also low. I then had a Short Synacthen test

More Folic Acid Safe?
Hello, im trying to get my head hair and other body hair to grow again. As a female that's important to me. My d3, even supplemented, was normal but only 50 so I've doubled intake. The folic acis is 400 mcg and I take two of these daily too. Now I've recently seen a video on Tracey Witty site

upper GI symptoms
Does anyone have upper gastro stomach symptoms? I’m currently going through horrible heartburn, gurgling and nausea. Already take 10mg omeprazole a day and now they’ve upped it to 30mg. Still churning and nauseous! It’s the daily nausea that gets me down the most

CEA Fluctuations
My husband has just completed his 3rd cycle of Carboplatin and Etoposide for prostate cancer liver mets. Before the first cycle his CEA was 38 (should be <5) This number is being used as baseline. After 1st cycle it was 30.3 but after his 2nd cycle it rose to 32.7. Is it normal for CEA to fluctuate

PMR resurgence
I’ve just finished a course of antibiotics for a bladder infection so am going for a fresh set of bloods, urine and poo today to try to establish if PMR has returned. It certainly feels like it! Since completing a 950km bike ride in France over 11 days I have been absolutely floored. I started

Neuroendocrine PCa
I posted awhile back that my PCa had progressed to high grade neuroendocrine carcinoma/small cell. I was treated with 4 rounds of atezolizumab/carboplatin/etoposide (chemotherapy and immunotherapy). A pet/CT scan shows it was effective, and I fared better than I expected going in, but definitely have
