Today is not a good day for me. I didn't sleep well last night. Woke with stomach ache. I have IBS and can't take any ppi s except for pepcid. I also am on Elliqus, Elvail and slow-mag. I have several allergies too. I am trying to stay positive but I could really use some encouragement right now. I

itching
Hi community, I have terrible itching and now being on Besremi I feel it has gotten a little worse. I plan to stay on Besremi unless it makes sense to switch to Jakafi, which I hear is excellent at controlling itch. I just got word from my dermatologist that some people have felt relief with a combination

Thyroid meds with calcium?
Hi, I am taking .100T4 and 4.5 T3 in a.m. I take 4.5 T3 at noon and again at mid-afternoon. I have severe osteoporosis--Tscore -4.1. I am having a very hard time fitting in calcium (two 500mg doses), iron, and magnesium, all of which I need and have to be taken apart from each other. I also take

Is this a flare?
Good morning, I’m 68 and diagnosed with PMR last October, 2023. I started at 20mg. No problem with tapering until February 29, 2 weeks after I started 7.5 mg. My neck (turning both ways and especially looking down) started getting sore and stiff on both sides. Tried acetaminophen and physical therapy

Down Today
Hi. I am not having a real good day today. Stomach is hurting. I have IBS and Gerd. Have been started on digestive enzymes. Pepcid 40mgs twice a day has been cut in half. BMS are much better with the enzymes. I think its more the urpy feeling that is bothering me. Any suggestions as to how to handle

Pepcid Update
So I’ve been taking Pepcid AC for 4 days now. and I noticed that when I take it before I eat. It works better. I do still get chest pain but not right away after I eat like I used to. Usually is like in 3 hours or later at night. My stomach also doesn’t bloat as much and I can eat a bit more now.

Bad cold sore should I wait to inject Methotrexate?
I was at the dentist last Thursday - not my usual one - and she was a bit rough! She split my lip in the corner and it's came out with large cold sores which are not healing! 😔 I'm considering not injecting today to give them a better chance to heal - what do you think? They're sore and I can't eat

thrush in mouth
I have had antibiotics lately and have thrush in my mouth. I have been prescribed Nystan to take 4 times a day. The nurse /practioner said also rinse my mouth after using my steroid inhaler.The problem is do I rinse and spit or rinse and swallow? Swallowing is so much easier

persistent oral thrush

My GCA Update
I just got done with my MRIs and MRAs, so we’ll see if results show much. My blood test came back with sed rate normal (always has been) and C-reactive prrotein headed down. It went from normal in PMR, to 1.3 and then 2.0 in GCA. Now at 0.8, so barely high and heading in the right direction. Still feeling

Suspected Bechets - affecting me mentally & physically
Hello, So sorry for the long post! So my doctor believes I have Bechets and I am currently undergoing tests/waiting for results. I have suffered with horrendous mouth ulcers ever since I had glandular fever at the age of 19 (now 36), and after a couple of years back and forth to the doctors about it,

Bitter Taste In Mouth
I have had a persistent bitter taste in my mouth since the end of December and the only respite that I get from it is either when I am sleeping, eating or drinking! It’s so bad that it is making me feel quite unwell! I am doing everything that has been advised eg drinking lots of water, brushing teeth

Thrush from Trimbow worse at the end of inhaler
I’ve been using Trimbow for about 6 months now and it’s changed my life, however, I get horrible dry mouth and oral thrush side effects. Maybe I’m imagining it, but I’ve noticed that it gets much worse towards the end of the inhaler and clears up a bit once I start a new one.? Anyone else? I always

Remedies for low stomach acid
Hello.This is a follow up on a previous question. I did the baking soda test this morning to see if I had low stomach acid. I didn't belch at all so I guess that could suggest that I'm low !! I thought I would try some Betaine HCI with pepsin as that is quite often recommended. I asked my naturopath
