Just diagnosed with 4.0 cm aneurysm of ascending aorta and severe calcification
Hi Friends I cannot express how shocked and dismayed I am finding out that I have severe calcification of my aorta and a 4.0 cm aneurysm. I have read that the aneurysm can be monitored yearly with imaging but there is nothing that can be done for the calcification. In the past 3 years, I have had

A question on 'high' dosage
So I'm currently on 150mcg of levo and 30mcg T3 and my latest results were still only 65% and 62% respectively. I've just started HRT so I may well continue to see improvements but I'm curious about my dosing. I'm 6'1" and roughly 65kg so I'm on the cusp of underweight. I know we need what we need

Picking
My husband with PD has been picking at his skin. Especially his hands. Dermatologist recommended lotions for dry skin. Neurologist says it’s not due to PD. He thinks he is peeling skin, but I don’t see anything. Seems to me to be more like a habit, like biting nails. Has anyone else had this feeling?

SIBO!!! But fearing taking antibiotics, especially Neomicyn… I’ve heard of terrible side effects ( tinnitus and hearing loss).
Hello, here is my doctor's report: ''The report of your hydrogen and methane breath test is positive, both for small intestinal bacterial overgrowth as well as excessive methane-producing bacteria in the large bowel. It may be sensible to consider treatment with non-absorbable antibiotics. If you would

Why does everyone seem to have permanent tinnitus here?
What is the cause of permanent tinnitus? This is so worrying, as my tinnitus started this month due to ear canal infection. Would this be permanent? I have been prescribed otomize. Would that be helpful?

Interesting Article (please read)
came across this article today and would like to know your thoughts: i was swayed by flashy advertising in the late 1990s featuring medical stars like Professor Lord Winston, who convinced me that omega-3 fish oil supplements were essential for my brain and my heart. Fast forward to today, and

Hi, I've recently been diagnosed with Gilbert's syndrome/disease. It was picked up via blood tests. I'm waiting to have a liver scan but the GP hasn't come up with any other plan. My main question at the minute is does anyone suffer with itching. Its not put down as one of the main symptoms but it's

BC Update with GP.
First I rang Macmillan and they thought it very odd my cancer had gone from high to low. So rang my consultants secretary and she was not there, the people in charge said they were not qualified to help. I saw my GP today and like myself had a letter with no details at the top, this matters because

EYE HEALTH: RELATIONSHIP OF PMR, PRED & MTX TO GLAUCOMA, CATARACTS, & DRY EYE
Hello everyone. Vacillated on a title for this post. I'll bet I covered it all. I've been on my hard PMR journey for 4+ years. Currently on 4mg Pred daily & 20mg MTX weekly. PMR pain is under control. My eyes have wept for the past 2 yrs; at times, non stop. Eyedrops are the common advice from my Optometrist

I am desparately worried about my brother who needs a corneal transplant. Has anyone on here had one or knows of anyone who has

help :(
I have had symptoms of a UTI since 31st October. I had Nitrofuration twice at the start of all this and things started to settle until I had a bath. I was then given 7 days of trimethoprim- I felt no real difference with this. Dipstick tests never really show infection so 3 urines have been sent to lab

GCA or Dry eye pain
Yesterday was the first day both my eyes hurt. I have been having dry eyes and drops are not doing too much. The pain in both eyes feel like pressure or strain pain. I am worried not knowing if it’s just dry eyes or my GCA acting up. Currently taking 10 mg if prednisone since the last GCA temple pain

Possible relapse, trouble seeing Rheumatologist.
Hi, I have not posted in quite some time. Read other's mostly, and since I have been in remission for 7-8 years I have not had much I could add to conversation. I was diagnosed with GPA in 2015. Put on pred and mycophenolate initially, then two rounds of rituximab. I have been med free since 2016

A good nights sleep
I think every body will agree that whenever we first get tinnitus fear and terror runs through our veins and the one thing it effects is our sleep, i remember my first few months and especially the first few weeks i was so scared i would keep getting out of bed, walking round going in to the garden ,

buprenorphine study
Just wondering what people think about the recent study below? Study population was people with opioid use disorder (OUD) who are taking buprenorphine to manage it. Apparently an unusually high percentage of participants had RLS symptoms. I thought Bup alleviated symptoms? I’m in the process of getting
