Hello All, I have been diagnosed by my GP as being hypothyroid, possibly autoimmune. I'm reluctant to go on pharma drugs, as I prefer to go down the natural route using iodine and supplements. Has anyone else on here done that? I'm currently reading 'The Iodine Crisis' by Lynne Farrow. 'Overcoming

Advice on Medichecks Results Please
Hello, my first time posting! As advised on this forum I stopped Meds 24hrs before test, it was at 9.20 in the morning. The only supplement I take is Colecalciferol 800unit capsules prescribed by GP as at one point I had extremely low vitamin D. I’m on Levothyroxine 100mcg daily (Accord). I was diagnosed

hearts been tight since Feb 23rd. Been to A&E three times. Nothing but codeine and naproxen. gp didn’t take my blood pressure or listen to my heart. Just shrugged me off Work GP (doctor care anywhere) recommended diazepam. he concluded it could be coronary muscle spasm. Nobody will sign off on it

Strange?
Yesterday I woke up feeling really rough, banging headache and nausea. I took some OTC paracetamol and codeine (12mg),one dose at 5 a.m and the last at 10.30 a.m. I do occasionally use this at night to help with RLS, but in this case I had nothing at all after 10.30 a.m. Yesterday evening I had an

Staying positive/ mind set
How do you keep going?! Until now my pain was manageable. But now nothing helps but codeine. I have 2 kids. I'm exhausted. I'm self employed so missing my work colleagues support network. Plan is to have a hysterectomy but can't have it for a year. I just feel very stuck. Are GPs supposed to help

High GGT Level
Morning All, so my GGT level is now up to 136 & my GP has requested a liver scan, I’m still waiting for the appointment. I’ve been virtually teetotal for 5 years, just the occasional drink on special occasions. I do/have taken a lot of paracetamol & codeine due to headaches from a previous brain operation

Ibuprofen with methotrexate and azathioprine
Hi all, I was wondering if anyone can help me. I am on methotrexate and reducing the azathioprine for my lupus. The trouble is I was told by the pharmacist she wouldn't give me ibuprofen as I was on the methotrexate. My rheumatologist said it was OK to take both so now I am confused. Is it safe or not

Hi everyone! I just stumbled across this website again and thought it may be a good place to seek advice from others who may have gone through similar events. So my story is a bit of an odd one. I’m 29 years old and I had always had heavier periods that were more on the painful side. But I was able

Possible CRPS?
I was diagnosed with Small Bowel Crohn’s Disease in the early 1970’s and had 18” of small intestine removed. I was on steroids for a while, then codeine for diarrhoea. Later diagnosed with Bile Salt Malabsorption. When I was around fifty the joint pain which I’d always suffered from since childhood began

Gabapentin plus Sertraline
I’d be grateful for advice. I have longstanding RLS and currently take codeine 30-60mg with partial effect. I’ve never taken anything else for RLS. A few weeks ago I needed antidepressants and my GP gave me Sertraline, as I had managed several months on this previously, with the RLS remaining tolerable

Family planning treatment advice
I don't know if it's best to have

treatment before hand or stick with medication, taking in to consideration the risks associated with each treatment. My thyroid levels at the moment are stable on 5mg carbamizole.

Carrying on from my previous posts, I spoke to a private consultant again tonight. He has a good track record apparently and is a surgeon too.Anyway I emailed my recent results and he said I wouldn't benefit from T3. He thinks my blood tests are all ok and within range.
