Gabapentin
Hello I've previously had excellent advice thank you. I have now completely come off the nupro patch wasn't nice coming off the last quarter but I did it. I was taking gabapentin at the same time and after withdrawal from DA symptoms settled I was left with breakthrough from the gabapentin at bedtime

This one is a bit "left field" but here goes...
"Can any one hear me", says the Robin? OK! Infatuation with Robins aside... After my spectacular successful knee replacement I decide to buy myself a new mountain bike. BUT... bear with me... I have been 5yrs remission since FCR, Lymphocyte count 0.7 so on prophylactic Aciclovir (against Herpes infection

Advice on codeine v tramadol
I'm hoping for some advice because my doctor and the neurologists have been no help. For the past few years I have been taking 50mg tramadol, 300mg Gabapentin and 50mg sertraline. Prior to this I managed to wean off Pramipexole. I haven't increased the dosage of any of my current meds because I had hoped

anaemia
I’ve recently finished taking pred after a four year struggle. I am now diagnosed with anaemia ! I’ve had two blood tests so far, a urine check, a bowel kit done and am now waiting for a colonoscopy. This is to eliminate anything like internal bleeding. I do not have Celiac disease either. In the mean

Effect of exercise on thyroid blood tests?
Just wondering,what effect have people noticed on their blood tests if exercising the day before/same day/other time? SlowDragon has previously shared that the ideal time for thyroid blood tests is just before 9am, and I'm wondering if exercising should also be taken into account? https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov

Glenmark Levothyroxine
Whilst we saw their levothyroxine withdrawn last year, I just saw something that made me wonder if it is coming back. The dm+d is a database of all medicines. Much else in the NHS uses the dm+d data as a starting point. It is a legal requirement for new medicines to be added to dm+d within something

Help please to understand my recent tests and what supplements I should be taking.
Recent blood tests following increase 8 weeks ago of levothyroxine to 100mcg daily from 100mcg 3 x a week, 50mcg 4 x a week. Could someone please help me to determine what supplements I should be taking. GP has suggested 1000 units of Vit d. I think my ferritin and possibly folate looks low also.

Fibro - flashes of nerve pain throughout the body or not?
I was diagnosed by a rheumatologist about 8 years ago. The GP I saw about a year later put me on to Nortriptyline and I've been taking 50mg every evening to help with nerve pain overnight and sleep issues. Now my present GP has persuaded me to come off it - I'm OK with this as I don't know if it's
