The iodine question
Hello, I am pondering on iodine supplementation. The b-complex I used it buy have changed the formula to add iodine so I am trying another one. However my nutritionist friend has incouraged me to have some iodine as it is important for healthy breast tissue and ovaries. I am also reading The Period Repair

Continued debate on iodine testing
Further to my post 18 days ago https://healthunlocked.com/thyroiduk/posts/148900989/serum-iodine-test-uk, Ive now received some information which may reopen the debate on which test is appropriate. As I indicated in my earlier post, Genova indicated that a serum test may be better (than the urine test

POST-HERPETIC NEURALGIA
Hi, first time on here and hopefully might find some advice, if not it might prompt some to ensure they get the appropriate shingles vaccine. I was diagnosed with CLL in 2014 with my first round treatment in 2017. This went reasonably well and I then went 4 years before it was decided that I would need

long lasting bleeding
Hi all. For context, I was diagnosed with endo almost two years ago via laparoscopy (I was fortunate enough to be able to go private because I was sick of the medical gaslighting). I was on birth control pills until last year but I got tired of pumping myself full of hormones so came off over a year

Kidney capsules to help with histamine intolerance...?

B complex recommendation
Hi there, I have been using wild nutrition food source b complex which I was happy with but they have changed the formula to add iodine which I understand isn't good if you take Levothyroxine. Can anyone recommend an alternative "clean" supplement. Thanks X

Despairing spouse
Hoping someone out there can help. Will try and keep it short. My husband is on levothyroxine following RAI in 2006. Six months ago he was absolutely fine, a bit overweight with a hearty appetite. Possibly because of this he suffered intermittently with reflux. In June he started taking lansoprazole

Codeine
Hi Does anyone have experience with codeine based products? I have RLS, just about managing through Fe and Mg tablets. I have been suffering with severe bouts of pain, in particular at night time, and have discovered that I need two hip replacements due to osteoarthritis. I took a codeine based product

Could this be PMR?
My friend is visiting me and has just told me the following story. In November 2022 she started getting an aching pain in her right arm. After a few weeks she went to her family Dr who prescribed codeine he said the pain was caused by small muscles in the bottom right hand side of her neck, he said
