Horizant
After pregabalin and gabapentin both made me nervous (I successfully tolerated the pregabalin for years, with daytime sedation however). Codeine also seems to be waking me up instead of sedating me. Doctor is suggesting trying Horizant. I know it is for people who experience symptoms all day, but

Update re carbimazole.
I haven't posted for a while since my husband ended up in hospital.The update is he was taken off carbimazole as he could not tolerate it. Saw Endocrinologist last Friday and he will be having Radioactive Iodine treatment to deal with his remaining half of the gland. Surgery isn't an option nor is

iodine and thyroid
Beware supplements with iodine. I am a thyroid cancer survivor who had half of my thyroid removed and recently started taking a supplement that had seaweed in it. At my annual thyroid check up (just a few weeks after starting the supplement) my blood work and thyroid function had changed. My doctor

Codeine report
Took 1/2 tab of Tylenol #2 at 9:00pm. Came on strong and I was very stoned in a half an hour. I did go to sleep after a half an hour or so for about two hours. Then woke up with PLMs and sort of fearful (may just be from knowing what this process can do to my life and fearing that codeine won't work

Codeine/magnesium/food
Am I right that codeine interacts with magnesium (I take magnesium threonate and magnesium bysglicinate)? And what about taking codeine with food or not? Thanks.

postpartum thyroiditis
Hi, I'm 8 months post partum and had my bloods done for hair thinning and some aches and pains, and my thyroid levels have come back abnormal. Although my t4 level is normal at 14 my tsh level is 10.6 which after Googling seems to be very high. I'm retesting as it's been a month to check if the levels

Irish sea moss?
Someone was telling me yesterday that they use Irish sea moss and swear by it. Googled it and read lots of positive comments about its health benefits. Does anyone here use it? Does it mess with levothyroxine/thyroid as it’s rich in iodine? Thank you 😊

Cold turkey
Hello everyone, I decided to go cold turkey on the last quarter of pramipexole, its been 5 days now, I had to up the codeine as the 900mg dose of gabapentin was making me feel weird, the rls is mostly confined to my legs which is great, so far I'm not getting a huge amount of sleep, mostly 1.5hrs at

endo Pain
I’m 53 and, after nearly 30 years of pain, I was diagnosed by telephone by an unnamed consultant that I had endometriosis and it was within my muscle to the left of my left ovary. I have received no advice, support or treatment since that diagnosis 3 years ago. The pain had now grown and is under my

I can’t believe what glorious weather we’re having but 30 seconds stood in it to wave relatives off this afternoon was enough for me! Definitely enjoyed the respite of the brief showers too. I’ve been feeling rough the last few days but can’t decide if it’s my heart, the heat or the infection in my

Wasting GP’s Time, so it seems
I saw my GP on Thursday. I took another copy of the Mayo Clinic guidelines with me.When I told him about the tingling and aching in my legs, he examined then with a Doppler, he did not do a neurological exam.I explained the guidelines would suggest the need for an iron infusion considering my nightly

ADVICE PLEASE asap
If I take 10mg of zolpidem when I go to bed, is it safe to take 30mg codeine if I wake in the middle of the night with RLS symptoms. Have googled drug.com and see a MAJOR interaction so am worried about taking both. My sleep specialist who prescribed them never gave me any advice.

Sorry if this is wrong place but need some urgent advice. Diagnosed with ‘probable’ PA and b12 deficiency along with diverticular disease diabetes 2. Female 76. Due to spinal problems and sciatica I have a 10 mg morphine patch and co-codamil and gabapentin. On Thursday I was involved in a car accident

Thanks for all the replies to my first post. They were all really helpful. Sorry I haven't reply to any yet, but I had an emotional few days.I've just been back to the doctors, (different, more senior gp this time) for some pain management advice. I told him all areas that hurt and he said "Ooh, rheumatology

Is codeine ok with prednisolone.
Foolishly went mad digging garden couple of weeks ago and upset my back....past slipped disc. Seeing pysio and doing all the right things and keeping pain killers to a minimum as even the paracetamol make me feel strange, light headed and upset digestive system. I am on omeprazole. Would codeine be a

Thoughts on extra Iodine intake in pregnancy (history of Graves)
Hi there, I am currently in remission for Graves disease and am 19 weeks pregnant. I heard that there is more need for iodine in pregnancy and am considering taking extra (in the form of liquid iodine - a few drops absorbed into the skin daily). However I am a bit apprehensive about whether this is

Wondering about Betadine/Povidone-Iodine solution and Thyroid
I just realized that this solution has
iodine
in it. The solution is diluted (0.5%
Povidone
-
Iodine
solution) and the mists are about 15ml, - with about 1/2 teaspoon per 1.5 ounces. Do I need to be concerned about this? I never really thought about iodine.
