Taking two 30mg co-codamol pills permanently
I have chronic back pain, probably because of my long computer working hours. Long story short, I started to take co-codamol (30mg codeine + 500 mg paracetamol). I love it, not only does the pain disappear, but my miserable, painful, depressed, and tired day becomes the happiest day of my life, I feel

Sublinical Hypothyroidism?
Hi Everyone, I've recently been to A and E for palpitations and they have found no issue with my heart. This is the second time this has happened this year. These always come with the usual symptoms below that occur in the run up and aftermath. Usually I dose up on vitamins and it eventually seems to

Diet and exercise for hyperthyroidism?
Hi all, Has anyone tried a low iodine diet combined with exercise to control their overactive thyroid (Graves’ disease), either as a sole treatment or in conjunction with other treatments? Would love to hear your thoughts on this.

The ABC of Disease book by Philip Day
Has anyone read the above book and especially his section on thyroid disease? He recommends, for hypo, taking Lugo's Iodine (self medicating before having to resort to thyroxine) - has anyone tried this? His advice on diet & supplements is also very helpful. Interestingly, he refers to the book called

Has anybody taken Subutex (Suboxone, Buprenorphine to help come off Codeine? What was it like for you and what were the withdrawals like?
I fractured my rib 2 years ago and I was put on Codeine Phosphate to help with the pain. It took a long time for my rib to heal so I took Codeine everyday for 6 months. I knew then that I had an addiction because I didn't want to stop taking them. They just made me so relaxed and euphoric. Anyway 2 year

Iodine Content of Celtic Sea Salt
We see many people mentioning that they get iodine from Celtic Sea Salt. I don't dispute that it does contain some iodine. But the amount might be rather less than we tend to imagine. I went to one company's web site (Selina) and checked on their plain Celtic Sea Salt. [i]Q. Does Celtic Sea Salt®

Iodine in end stage Hashimoto´s?
I had a thyroid ultrasound a couple of weeks ago which showed a "completely atrophied thyroid gland" according to the radiologist´s report. I was diagnosed with Hashimotos in 1999 based on very high anti-TPO and anti-thyroglobulin levels, but both have been in range for the last couple of years which

iodine

Hospital Trip
So 4 wks after transplant, 2nd trip to clinic. Bit disappointing. I am in pain, constipated on and off & am pretty sure I’ve got a UTI as I’m going to toilet every 20/30 mins and passing little. Nurses were fantastic. Doctor looked at wound, happy with it. Asked me how I was told him codeine was making

SSRI toxicity on thyroid ?
I've read that SSRIs contain halogen atoms that can substitute for Iodine (itself an halogen), making thyroid hormones inefficient. Will it show on the biology (normal T3 and T4 and higher TSH because it will not slow TSH secretion) ? I can't find anything online...

Which Thytoid test is best?
Hello all. I have hypothyroidism after having Radio iodine treatment for Graves several years ago. Levo (irrespective of quantities) hasn't worked for me. I was prescribed Armour two years ago and it was a miracle drug for me but then my health board refused to keep prescribing. I have tried Thai Thiroid

Mediterranean diet
There was a question posted recently about diet and how to ensure that you are getting enough nutrients from food. I thought my answer might be useful to others, so here is much of information that I posted and a bit more in case anyone missed it. I attended a course on the microbiome (gut bacteria)

Radioactive Iodine Therapy and cannabis
I'm having RAI in about 10 days and wondered if it was safe to take some 'gummies' - cannabis edibles - with me?
