Ginkgo Biloba for RLS
I took 60 mg of Ginkgo Biloba in the middle of awful sleepless night and slept like a baby till morning. Manufacturer: Jarrow Formulas from iherb.com. It was the very first time when I took Ginkgo in the middle of the night. Before I only used it during daytime and the same 60 mg gave me a headache.

Could it be hormones?
I feel like I've experienced a HUGE increase in anxiety and panic. It used to be that I would have episodes of panic (tears, quickened pulse) that could be directly traced to a cause (usually involving social anxiety). Out of nowhere I think I started experiencing panic attacks. On a random day in mid-January

Can I replace 10 weekly injections with 1000micro gram tablets daily.A PMJ paper from 2003 suggested this was efficacious.
Recently been encountering resistance to getting injections at 9 to 10 weeks intervals. A Med professional (retired) dug out the paper "Oral vitamin B can change our practice" has any one got experience of doing this substitution. And why has this not been more widely adopted. Sincerely RonnyP

Vitamin B12, Cyano-Cobalamin Sources
Dear ALL, There has been, across a Number of these Forums, Considerable 'Mention' regarding Vitamin B12- Cyano-Cobalamin (Sometime written as one word Cyanocobalamin.) I have, in my Previous 'Life' (I worked in Laboratories, before I was Ill) encountered this Material. It is Bright Red, VERY expensive

Help please
Hello everyone. I would really love to hear your advice if it’s not a problem. I’m relatively new in the world of Hashimoto’s as I’ve been diagnosed when I was 9 years old, so my mother took care of me and my therapy. Now I’m 21 and started to educate and taking care of it myself, but still don’t know

Do I need to reduce T4? Latest results
Hi everyone, as SlowDragon is aware from our conversation yesterday I have had another blood test done. And now I have my new test results. I am on 150mcg T4 Synthroid daily and 7.5mcg T3 split into 2 doses daily. I think I need to reduce my T4. I increased it from 100mcg to 150mcg after my last test

Imbruvica with Hep B
Three years ago when I was diagnosed with Non Hodgkin Lymphoma the first doctor went out of his way to protect my liver. In 1982, 35 years ago I had a full blown case of Hepatitis B. I was tested for Hep B antibodies before I went on the first chemo medication. Along with the first three chemo drugs

Recurrent Cellulitis - genital area … therefore Trimethoprim 100mg
I’ve had single leg Lymphoedema for 15 years now and this has been well-managed with stockings, exercise and skin care etc. Recently I’ve had monthly cellulitis attacks that always start in the genital area and spread a little. I carry Penicillin and this clears it up within 24 hours (therefore mild

Anger with the champix
Hi there, I'm now on day 10 and still smoking but only around 10 which is good for me. My problem is the anger. I'm snapping at absolutely everything , especially the kids who think I've lost the plot. I didn't have any patience before I started these and now I can turn from normal to psyco in seconds

Best time of day to take Vitamin B Complex?
I'm hypo, with Hashi's, and have been supplementing for almost a year based on the helpful advice from everyone on this site. Approximately 2 months ago I went gluten-free. After my last Medichecks test in November 2018 I was advised (by this site) to add B Complex to my supplements, so I started on

Does T3 use up Vitamins?
Hi all just a quick question does anyone know if T3 uses up Vitamins specifically the B Vitamins because I'am very low again on Folate (guessing around 5 or lower) and have all the symptoms of it. Also my b12 was last checked to be in the low 300s. So I got a whole wack of bloods again to check for anemia
