why am I so tired
I was diagnosed with GCA in November. I have been reducing Prednisone every 2 weeks. I started on 40mg and I am now on 12.5mg. I have steroid induced diabetis and my readings have been very erratic. They seem to be settling down a bit. I am taking 160mg and 80mg of Gliclazide, I have also been prescribed

Had this blood test done in January and had text to say book a non urgent appointment and just put it off also getting print out from docs they’ve requested a telephone consultation which I’ve eventually booked but looking at it I know the TSH is low in their opinion and obviously cholesterol too high

Polyunsaturated fats v saturated fats
I am so confused! I read on another site polyunsaturated fats are bad for people with hypothyroidism and saturated fats are recommended. I tend to follow the Mediterranean way of eating more for heart health and keep slim. This includes oily fish , avocados and nuts which are PUFAs. My GP wanted me

about four months ago, given a diet sheet and advised to take my blood sugars (I bought an accu-check instant monitor). My HbA1c came back as 44 which I think converts to around 6.4 mmol/L or somewhere in that range.

Small bowel intestinal overgrowth
I have been diagnosed by my gastroenterologist with sibo after a breath test. The treatment prescribed is xifaxan. I’m waiting for approval by insurance. I’m also in treatment for CLL with Zanubrutinib which I began in May last year. I have had stomach issues, sometimes really severe, since beginning

Utterly confused.......
My BMI is 40, I have been doing the NHS Weight Management Second Nature programme and found it easy to follow, and the recipes delicious, and although I have only lost a few lbs, I didn't feel the need to snack or binge on anything. I learnt this morning that I have Type 2 diabetes and high cholesterol

Beta 2 Microglobulin
Hi. I'm considering getting a Beta 2 Microglobulin blood test done. I have CLL and on W&W. Has anyone else had this done?

Low carb diets
On top of everything else I'm now pre-diabetic. I wasn't prior to starting the steroids but as I'm now on 2 mg of Prednisolone a day and have been on 5 mg or less for over a year I suspect that Prednisolone is not the culprit. I've been looking at a diabetic website and it says that low carb is less

Noo shoos!
Having looked into these shoes that Frizzbomb67 asked about, I decided to order the support version, Brookes Launch GTS. They arrived quickly, and included a free pair of running socks! When I first tried them on I thought they were awful, really stiff and solid, like putting a cardboard box on my feet

Metoject pens with Methotrexate
I have had 17.5mg of Methotrexate injected into my thigh once weekly with a Metoject Pen since January this year. Virtually ALL have had a problem with the safety release not working without the pen being tapped repeatedly on a hard surface. Too many have somehow leaked liquid onto my leg as well as
