Help with whether leg pain is side effect of brand of levo prescribed
Hi Everyone I had a parathyroidectomy in January 2023 which resulted in me being hypothyroid (TSH 22.) I was put on 50mg levo which following quarterly blood tests was increased to 75mg in May and 100 mg in November. My blood test last week finally saw my TSH in normal range. It is 2.94 mU/L (range

feeling a bit overwhelmed and lost
In September 2023 I found out by chance that I had apparently been diagnosed with lupus 15-20 years ago. I haven’t been told at any point in this time by a doctor - I found out almost by accident from my GP physio. Since then my current GP has been initially verbally supportive although said they knew

Bronchiectasis, Asthma, para oesophageal lymph node enlarges and Gord
Hi,I was diagnosed with mild asthma in 20 14, but rarely needed blue inhaler. During the pandemic I fell ill with a tubo ovarian abcess which I was hospitalised for week . This made me quite ill for a few months and as a result I didn't exercise as much and gained some weight. After everything went back

Leg Pain pt 3
Writing again because one of you lovely people suggested I saw my MRI results for myself. She was right, my doctor said it was wear and tear in the back. Keep taking the painkillers and walk. But I did see the results and it is Grade 1 degenerative spondylolisthesis. He did not suggest physio. But

Neck ache - PMR? I don't think so.
I've had horrible neck pain (ache) for 5 days now. Okay overnight but as soon as I am sitting at my screen (I am there a lot) I am in pain. My px'd analgesia isn't working much and I can only get comfort from slumping down on the sofa and supporting my upper back. 10 years ago my neck was Xray-d and

vestibular migraine nightmare
Hi everyone. I just at my wits end and wondered if anyone can help?’! Diagnosed with vestibular migraine 10 years ago by default as they did every test imaginable both ENT and Neurological and decided it had to be that and gave me propranolol and the following day it was a miracle. Hadn’t left house

Physio and rollator!
So, I saw a physio last Monday, and she recommended I go from being unsteady with my stick to going onto a rollator (the one thats like a zimmer frame with wheels and it also has a seat). I got it the next day, Tuesday, but I've been a bit scared using it. However, this morning, the physio visited me

I am a very active person and had never heard of PMR. My first sign of an issue was a big one and quite strange. I had just spent 8 straight hours driving and when I got home I could hardly get out of the car or walk. Thighs were killing me to the point of I had to lift my legs with my arms to

After an X ray of pelvis and hips I was told nothing wrong with hip joint, but my pelvis was tilted and lower

Vibration plate
I have been going to physical therapy for 6 weeks now and feel so much better. One of the treatments they use is a percussion massager gun after I am done doing my excercises. I have been reading about how beneficial a vibration plate is so have ordered one. Interested to hear who is using one and if

Heart Rate Monitors
This may be a silly question but I'm a little confused. Whenever I see a doctor I'm often asked if I have a heart rate monitor and a blood pressure machine that can deal with AF. My BP machine can't detect AF but seems to be accurate otherwise when compared to readings at my GP. When it comes to heart

Back on the IC more than exercising and 🤞🤞🤞
Well after trying hard to ignore heel and hip pain since Christmas I decided to make an appointment with the physio. Went yesterday and after a very thorough examination he decided I had Achilles tendinitis and my OA of hip wasn’t helping it he also felt my age old back surgery was affecting both.
