A frustrating case of parathyroidism
Has anyone been diagnosed with primary hyperparathyroidism but nothing shows up on a scan? I feel pretty fatigued most of the time and would like to get rid of the tumour. I have also lost bone density because of the calcium being taken from them and have to take alendronic acid to stop any further deterioration

Severe Pelvis pain from 3 endometriosis cyst.
Just spent a week in hospital for severe pelvis pain which was affecting my ability to walk, open bowel or empty bladder. Discharged with mefenamic acid and cocodamol. Has anyone suffered pain from having 2 cyst in their ovaries And one stuck behind uterus. Annoying thing they can't do anything because

Help with New blood results. Started with functional Doc and want to know your thoughts. Thanks
I am Male. I started going to a functional Doctor as I have gotten tired of dealing with GP's that will not look at anything else but TSH and getting nowhere with them. The blood results are all requested by my functional Doc. With the results she has put me on LDN 1.5mg. Switched from Synthroid

Pmr confirmed
Further to my first post last week, saw my gp today who confirmed pmr due to huge lowering in esr levels and crp levels since taking the prednisolone. He has reduced to prednisolone to 12.5 from 15 for one week and then to 10mg and then I need a further blood test and need to see him a week after. He

Ursodiol Dosage
I was recently diagnosed with PBC. The doctor said I was in the very early stages and prescribed Ursodiol. I take 500mg twice a day. Is that the typical dosage for this disease?

Just a little info about ursodiol
I found this article to be interesting. https://www.gastrojournal.org/article/S0016-5085(04)02000-1/fulltext My niece gave me this link to read. It’s a little outdated so not sure how accurate it is.

Effects of ursodiol
I have a niece who is into natural remedies for anything medical that requires medication. She was researching ursodiol and found that it can cause cancer Asked if I would try something natural instead. Is this an issue? Can it in actual fact cause cancer ??

Two Years Into Osteoarthritis
I started walking to relieve some of my “multiple site” osteoarthritis. Its Winter here in Wisconsin, so getting out there is hit and miss, depending on the road conditions. My docs at the VA wont prescribe anything for this condition except Ibuprofen. Ive read that ibuprofen breaks down the cartilage

CBD OIL Medium Strength
Reporting back after 1month on the oil as promised for pain relief. I started week one with two drops twice daily, and increased it weekly by one drop. have to say in my opinion, I don’t think it’s made any difference. I’ve still had to take my normal amount of pain relief. Maybe a higher strength or

Alendronic acid
Hi all, Is there anyone who has had good Dexa scan results when taking Alendronic acid. If so, how long did you take it for, and how long have you been off it.
