Update on rls
Hello everyone, just an update to let you know how I have been getting on since coming off the dopamine agonist. It's around 3 months now since I took my last tiny piece of pramipexole, after a pretty rough time of crawling legs, arms, shoulder shivers, I'm finally getting better!!! While coming off

No change to my right eye but my left eye continues to lose peripheral vision. The pressure was elevated even

codeine
I’m just wondering if taking a 60mg dose of codeine each night is addictive? I’m only taking codeine occasionally at other times if I’m in agony with my other health problems. I’ve noticed that it helps my RLS calm immensely when taken with or a low dose of pramiprexole. I also find a hot way bottle

What is the prognosis for someone with Graves’ disease?
Hi All, I have some questions about the prognosis for someone with Graves’ disease. How would Graves’ disease likely progress if solely treated using anti-thyroid medication such as Carbimazole? This is the route I am taking. I know it’s an autoimmune disease so there will be flareups and periods

Like everyone, I'm trying desperately to get my antibodies at an optimal range. I currently take 75 mcg of Tirosint and also something called T-150 by Xymogen, which my functional doc prescribed. (It's basically a bovine, multi-glandular, mineral, and herbal formula to support healthy thyroid function

Too much thyroxine?
Hi, Please can someone help me? I have Hashimotos, Sjogrens & Antiphosphilipid syndrome. Has anyone experienced continuous rolling migraines for a week? I don’t usually suffer from migraines, other than the odd visual aura if my INR drops below 2. For the last week I have had frequent daily auras

is iodine in almond milk a problem
I’m sorry if I’m making too many posts here. I’m happy to be redirected if better. I just noticed that my almond milk says it contains iodine. Does this mean I should avoid it? I’m just trying to have a life detox of all things bad for thyroid.

Looming Endo Appointment
I had RAI in 1998 and been on Levo since 1999. Last time I saw an endocrinologist was in 99.

Doc stated I was overactive on this, suggested m that I reduce to 125 and we

Venting about a poor night, again and no relief in sight
This is more of a desperate rant than anything else -- I wish I was outside today, in the sun and enjoying life. Instead I'm in bed feeling wiped. Last night I tried codeine, again. Only this time i tried a much higher dose. All previous times I've used codeine it's either worked alright or not very

Tylenol 3 with Codeine…I need a substitute…Help
I’m stage 3b and maintaining. I just had foot surgery this morning. My orthopedic surgeon consulted with my nephrologist and decided Tylenol 3 with Codeine would be best to start . If that didn’t work I could take low dose Hydrocodone/Acetaminophen 10-325mg. The Tylenol 3 is making me vomit, but
