Addison's disease
Spoke with my GP yesterday regarding the extreme fatigue & rollercoaster of crashing following activity. He is now going to test & look at the possibility of Addison's. How does this mesh with PMR and Pred? I'd welcome any advice or better knowledge. Thanks.

Excess Folic Acid and Vitamin B12 Deficiency: Clinical Implications?
This is a very recent paper. Some of the areas covered are well-known. Such as not treating B12 deficiency with folic acid. But, in the more speculative parts, I think it does raise questions over the prescribing of high dose (e.g. 5 milligrams a day) of folic acid in those who are currently low in

New diagnosis - what to expect/demand from GP
I had my second child in August 2022 and to be honest I've not felt right since. Since going back to work in June last year I've been permanently exhausted but it's just got worse and worse. Totally mental fog, can't focus, constantly yawning my head off. My body aches constantly but all the while I

PMR/GCA and Sjogrens disease
Does anyone have Sjogren’s disease along with PMR/CGA? For months I’ve been struggling with worsening vision in my left eye, and trying to figure out if I was having a flare. The left eye vision is like it was before cataract surgery, worse some times than others, especially after reading. Opthomologist

Gluten and B12 deficiency
Is there a link between B12 deficiency and gluten sensitivity? My neuropathy has massively improved since I started self injecting regularly but I’ve noticed it returns slightly after eating bread, pasta or other foods containing gluten. Alcohol has an effect too I think. Trying to put the pieces of

Hello, any help welcome
Hi all,I've been told I have an underactive thyroid recently after feeling very tired and achy for a few months, and having a blood test. No treatment as yet, seems more tests are to follow. I've become much more tired, a bit weepy ( not like me at all😔). And, horror of horrors, I'm gaining weight

who also has fibromyalgia and then lupus?
I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia in 2009 and then lupus last year. I think it was harder to get the diagnosis because a lot of syptoms overlap.

A paper from Bruce Wolffenbuttel and colleagues, released last February https://www.mdpi.com/2072-6643/16/5/662 Conclusion: [i]"Autoimmune gastritis is not a gastritis that needs acid suppression; rather, it may benefit from acid supplementation.

Cutaneous scleroderma ?with Lupus overlap?
Recently saw Rheumatologist for 1st time confident that I’d get Sjogren’s diagnosis but came away with more than I’d bargained for with Cutaneous scleroderma possibly with Lupus overlap to add to my ever growing list of autoimmune conditions.
