HRT in late 50's
I am investigating about HRT and have been reading lots of good things about helping with osteoporosis. I am thinking about trying HRT as I have post menopausal issues and to help with OP. However my GP insists that after 50, it's of zero use. I have found good studies and even the ROS recommend it

Period Won't Stop!
So, I just want to start off by saying I do have PCOS so my periods have always been irregular and a bit crazy. I'm very much used to going a while without them - my longest cycle between periods was about 3 months. However, since about May last year, they've changed. In May, I bled for around a 3

Study shows hyaluronan is effective in treating chronic lung disease.
Researchers at the National Institutes of Health and their collaborators found that inhaling unfragmented hyaluronan improves lung function in patients suffering from severe exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Hyaluronan, a sugar secreted by living tissue that acts as a scaffold

Dosage reduction
Following on from my post a month ago, this is where I am now. Continued with 10 mg daily until I reached 6 weeks, then reduced to 9 mg, which is where I am now. My Dr wants me to continue to taper slowly by 1 mg every 6-8 weeks. Dr prefers to focus on symptoms rather than blood tests. I asked if

Hopeful but still keeping fingers crossed!
I am today posting, to give hope to others on tapering plans! After 4 years of first GCA followed by two bouts of PMR, my third attempt of tapering , continues to be promising. I chalk off a new week every Wednesday on my calendar and I have reached the ten week mark. That is ten weeks of no prednisolone

My Vaccine Worries
Your thoughts, advice and perhaps your sympathy, would be greatly appreciated please. I'm sure my invitation to have the vaccine is imminent and I'm worried. I've debated with myself for weeks about the best course of action and I'm going round in circles. The last time I was vaccinated was in 1991

Good meds for bone pain w. metastatic PCa.
Need pain med advice. GP Doc finally put me on Percocet -- which is way too weak to do much good. Have bone mets for almost 2 years from femurs to neck, and sometimes excruciating pain. Starting Hospice soon as my MO discharged me. (Have Braca 2 gene, and last med -- Lynparza -- lost its effectiveness

My scores are in!

What do you think about this formula?
It was developed by Purebulk and had given it a name "Alpha Energy" but they have now discontinued this product Taurine....515 mg Glucuronolactone... 210 mg N-acetyl L- tyrosine... 200 mg Caffeine synthetic... 200 mg L-phenylalanine .. 180mg L malic acid.. 175 Seems good formula for boosting energy

Vitamins
I am now down to 1/2 of a 1mg prednisone after almost two and one half years. My only concern is my red blood cell count is still up . I am thinking of cutting back on my vitamin D. The doctor has me on 2000mg but I was also on 25mg of prednisone . I am thinking I may only need 1000 now. I have stopped

How long for MRI results?
Hi All, this is my first post but hoping you may be able to shed some light on all of this for me. Had a pelvic MRI yesterday, how long usually for the results to come back? The nurse afterwards said they have to pass the results on to gynae & urology (?), then it will go to the gynae team at St Marys

The Dr is going to give it a try! Started Synthroid yesterday!
Hi everybody, I’m new here and I posted 3 weeks ago saying that my dr didn’t want to give me Synthroid, but now he will! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Long story long, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto 15 years ago when I was 27 and never did anything about it. After reading a LOT here I realize that I’m not feeling good

I was diagnosed in June 2019 with PMR after an unexpected attack out of the blue , when I was in so much pain I couldn't move and began shaking and with my teeth chattering. An excellent GP pulled out all the stops, arranged immediate blood tests and other examinations and very soon prescribed prednisolone

Hello Ladies, Hope your all well. I'm getting really worried. I've been bleeding for a month some days really heavy other light. Also with clots. But im taking Noristorone and Tranexamic Acid.
