Could two amino acids be the missing link?
I posted this in a reply but to me this information was exciting so I wanted to post on a new post also. I have posted before that Fish oil Supplement triggered me off after almost a year of no AF. Everything I read says Fish Oil should be taken, so why does it trigger me? I am currently

Blackseed oil
Hi, is it safe to rub blackssed oil on your neck over your thyroid as a moisturiser? I've heard you shouldn't use castor oil over it, so was wondering if it's the same for blackseed oil. TIA

bronchiectases and fungal infection
Hello all, I have bronchiestaces amongst other things and I’ve been coughing up small amounts of blood for a few weeks. After a trip to A&e I was given a sputum test which came back saying I had a fungal infection somewhere in my respiratory tract. Has anybody else had this? thank you

USP or API sources for different NDT thyroid brands
Hi, I was wondering if anybody has information about which NDT brands use which Desiccated Thyroid Extract (USP or API) sources and where these USP/API sources are manufactured? I am particularly interested to know about Armour, NP and Erfa and even the new brand Adthyza.

Droxia vs Hydrea
I've been treated with Hydroxyurea (hydrea) 500mg for PV since December 2021. Due to stomach issues in March 2023 the HU was decreased to every other day. I did fine on this dosage. My #s stayed pretty much normal & eventually my hemoglobin and hematocrit were actually on the low side of normal so

Phosphatidylserine
I thought I posted here about phosphatidylserine but can't find it now.... Does anyone know anything about taking this with APS? It is a phospholipid so as I have antibodies to phospholipids, shouldn't this mean that supplementing with phospholipids could help? Or would it hinder? The product helps

Elevated Diastolic Blood Pressure & Thyroid?
I’ve read that thyroid issues can increase diastolic blood pressure while systolic remains normal. I’ve been seeing a slight increase / trend with this. Has anyone else seen this and it meant levothyroxine increase needed?
