T4 to T3 conversion.
Hi all, I recently had a blood test done and I have a feeling my t4/T3 conversion rate isn't good. I took the test early in the morning,. no food or drink from the night before. I regularly self inject B12 as I have pernicious anaemia. I supplement with D3, magnesium and omega 3 oil. For the past couple

Taking Alendronic Acid & Dentists won't touch me!
Wanted to have some dental work done & on speaking to a specialist dental surgery, when they heard I was taking Alendronic Acid & Prednisolone they just didn't want to touch me. Have been to visit my regular dentist today who said anything like an extraction or implant he wouldn't do & I would have

Heights Smart Supplement - should I stop? Advice
Hi guys, After recently finding out I have Hashimotos (going to the Dr on Thursday) I have been taking stock on what I take and whether it is beneficial to me or could cause harm. I take the Heights Smart Supplement and wondered what you guys thought of what is inside it. I was mainly worried because

Will Alendronic Acid affect my RLS?
I have Osteopenia and have been advised to start taking Alendronic Acid to prevent me developing Osteoporosis but am worried it might make my RLS worse. I take Requip and seem to have it under control.

hi everyone, Hope your all well. I’ve had pbc for about a year now. I take 500mg of ursodeoxycholic acid twice per day. I suffer from waves of nausea at different times throughout the day. Today I spoke to Gastroenterologist on the phone and he told me to take the medication 1000mg at bedtime. Does

Dexa scan
I thought I would share my experience. I have just been for the above, having questioned the need for me to be taking Alendronic acid. I was told by my GP that I “might as well” take it when started on Steroids. I hated the ritual of having to get up earlier on the day I had to take it and then when

I'm wondering if anyone else has a problem with excess hyaluronic acid and if so what facial moisturising creams are appropriate? A post I saw here some months ago helped

Has anyone else had a problem with loose teeth?
I went to the dentist yesterday who said 4of my teeth are becoming loose, probably due to Alendronic acid and Carbamazepine ( for trigeminal neuralgia ) He said my dental hygiene was excellent. The only available treatment on the NHS is a denture! I am being referred to a periodontal specialist but

amino acids not recognised as essential in humans such as taurine play a role in fibromyalgia,
In this study, researchers measured the level of 20 amino acids (critical components of proteins). They found that overall levels of amino acids were lower in fibromyalgia and that seven amino acids were especially low, including taurine, alanine, tyrosine, valine, methionine, phenylalanine, and threonine.The
