I’ve tried magnesium (taurate, glycinate, &
citrate
),
potassium
, taurine, d-ribose, CoQ10, cut out caffeine, electrolyte powders, hawthorn, motherwort, and even beta blockers (metoprolol and propranolol). Nothing has truly decreased the burden.

Hypo- induced tight, stiff, painful legs – any suggestions?
My legs feel as if I’d walked 25 miles yesterday with no previous training whatsoever (whereas I didn’t leave the house...) Like acid in the muscles.

Very dry eyes and constipation linked to dose decrease?
So me going down from 112mcgs to 100mcgs failed after 3 weeks. No blood test to confirm it yet but I'm supposed to get more blood work done at the end of the month. But are dry eyes a hypo symptom? Also started having bad constipation and bloat. Magnesium Citrate 600mgs a day doesn't seem to be working

TUMS as a good source of calcium? No.
As I understand it, there are different types of calcium, and they are not all equally absorbed. I was told that calcium citrate is best if you can’t get sufficient calcium from your diet. I am easily getting 1200 mg by drinking three 8 oz glasses of skim milk daily.

Magnesium for palpitations
Hi all, Just wondering what type of magnesium you take to improve palpitations. I have been taking magnesium citrate but on reading up I think magnesium taurate may be the current one? I have not had much luck with the citrate. If anyone has had any improvements with magnesium can you share which

Calcium Supplements Edited with more Info
Jim's Calcium level has been around 10 since Dec 2020. He had his first Lupron shot Jan 2021. Abiraterone started Mar 2021. He has been on 1000mg of Oyster Shell Calcium and when I recently reviewed her instructions from 2020 I realized she had wanted him to take 650mg calcium citrate or carbonate

Blood test for calcium
I was reading the 'Supplement timing' post which appeared in my daily e-mail this morning and one of the replies from greygoose raised a good point. In the past I was mildly low with my calcium and since going through a surgical menopause in October 2021 and having a DEXA scan which showed mild osteopenia

Question to those who have stopped taking Thyroid-S
I´d like to hear from members who no longer take Thyroid-S. I realise there is something in Thyroid-S that does not agree with me. When I take it, I get terrible itching all over my body. If I go off it for a few days, the itching stops. When I go back on TS, the itching comes back. I think I am reacting

Magnesium citrate
Does anyone on here take Magnesium citrate long-term? I started taking it just before Xmas after finding a recommendation on here & it has definitely helped with constipation. Having done a bit more research with Mr. Google I am a bit worried that prolonged use can have side effects.

Low Sodium Salt
Thinking of my blood pressure I want to reduce the salt in my diet. I have some low sodium salt (Brand: Saxa So-Low) in which the reduced sodium is primarily taken up with potassium chloride instead. The packet says it contains 50% less sodium than table salt. It has 51% potassium chloride and 48% salt

OATMILK FORTIFIED WITH POTASSIUM IODIDE- OK TO TAKE?
I am reducing dairy intake and have been using oatmilk. However today I noted that it contains potassium iodide. Each 100mls contains 22ug . This is the only reasonably tasting milk substitute that I have been able to find and I have tried most of them! However I am concerned about the iodine content
