Ibrutinib and Tylenol with codeine
Beastly toothache for 4 days and extra strength Tylenol isn't doing a thing to cut the pain. Can I safely take Tylenol with codeine until I am able to get into a dentist?

Advice please
Recently, I've been experiencing hyperthyroid symptoms that are a bit extreme. I had RAI in January 2019, was diagnosed with Graves. Had a terrible conversion issue on levothyroxine, high reverse T3, high antibodies, and generally terrible time until February 2020. I've been seeing a functional medicine

Iodine drops
Hi, I’ve heard from few natural holistic practitioners that taking iodine drops daily helps with thyroid illnesses to boost energy levels. Can anyone elaborate or have any useful info regarding it or experience in taking iodine drops for their thyroid health. Thanks

Really starting to worry. :(
So for the past 5 years I’ve been getting pains around my right shoulder blade area after I eat anything or it can come on when walking. Went to see my GP who put it down to a rotator cuff injury, which I was sceptical about but because it didn’t cause me much hassle, I left it. Fast forward to 9 weeks

Bovine thyroid supplements
Hello everyone! I was wondering if anyone has good experiences with bovine thyroid supplements from new zealand. After changing from armour (which worked perfectly) to erfa (not so good for me) to synthetic L thyroxine and cytomel, I gained a lot of weight. Would novothyral be better? I have a new orthomelcular

I've started

3rd time lucky??
Just managed to talk my consultat about not having RAI and Give the block and replace another go. He said if I have another relapse that i will have to go for it. Why do they push RAI over block and replace? Surely as we know that once it's done it's done and no going back. I am 42 and dont want to give

Here is an extract what I read on Gutsense.org re salt
Moderate consumption of salt. Salt was always prized as one of the most valuable foods. The Roman centurions were paid salārium, or salt money (either in salt or money to buy salt). The table salt in the American diet is the sole source of iodine, a trace element essential for thyroid health. Salt is

Do we have Graves antibodies forever, even after RAI?
I was hyper in 1987, and in my medical records one endo mentioned Graves, and one mentioned Hashimotos thyroiditis. There's no record of any antibody tests, just high T4 and low TSH. I had carbimazole and PTU, but relapsed afterwards, so was given RAI in 1989, and have been very hypo ever since. I

Hyperthyroidism and treatment question
I recently got diagnosed with hyperthyroidism. My doctor has told me it's either RAI or surgery and I am trying to understand whether this is the normal course of action or whether people would tend to be put on medication first. My doctor seemed very reluctant to give medication. I live in Japan, so
