Medicheck blood trst
I’m about to order the ultravit well woman test. Do I have to stop my vit b complex, magnesium, multi vit and omega 3 supplements before I do it? Also will it give me a cortisol reading or should I order that separately ? Thanks x

Excruciating Lower Left Pelvis Pain
Lately I’ve been experiencing unbearable pain in my lower left pelvis. It got so bad last month that I had to rush to the emergency room to get injected with tramadol because oral mefenamic acid was not working. I’ve had 2 surgeries already. First one, partial removal of both ovaries (the diseased parts

At what dose of Prednisolone can I stop Alendronic Acid
Obviously I do not want to be on AA so please do not advise me that I should not take it at all. I have tapered my Prednisolone dosage over the last 15 months from 20mg daily down to 4mg daily. At this level of Pred, can I discontinue AA?

Alendronic substitutes
I want to come off Alendronic acid. I remember PROpmr suggesting Magnesium. Which one? There is Mag Phos and Mag citrate. Will either do and what is the difference? I will also take Vit D, as I understand that is good too. I’ve just had a bone density done which is within normal limits. Have had PMR

GCA Sufferers Please be BMA (Be More Aware - than me!)
I have been a GCA sufferer for over ten years (6 months of Polymyalgia). And I have made mistakes - and sometimes - I just haven't been told or been made aware of important factors. Hands up for the following: 1 Did you know that you are safe if you chose to sit tight on your level of prednisolone proving

On methotrexate and pred, have been exposed to fungal skin infection. First aid advice please.
Hi I am currently on 23 mg pred and 25 mg methotrexate subcutaneous and I'm doing fine. But today I had a visit from a very dear friend whom I've not seen in ages. His skin on his face looked like the results of bad sunburn, red and flaky. Later in conversation it comes out that it is a fungal infection

Amino acids and creatine
Yes I take creatine (5g day) and several amino acids (all 21 if possible). All of the above are very good for optimum muscle performance, especially recovery. Some amino acids are needed for cellular functions and brain health. No doctor will tell you this. You have to find out yourself. Lots of good

Bleeding non stop after bfn for 5MONTHS
Hiya ladies kindly let me know if there’s anyone having my kind of condition... After my failed 3rd cycle in January, my period has taken bad turn. I bleed for over 18 days with chunky clots. My gynecologist feels it will be normal after few months all to no avail. Last month I was placed on provera,

So Far, So Good
Hello, It's been a week of daily CBD oil capsules (30mg). It is recommended that the dose for beginners is around 10mg working your way up from there, but I was never one for gradual. Go Big or Go Home! I held my expectations in check maintaining the observers perspective on the effects and was

Dexa Scan
I requested a referral for a dexa scan from my GP as Alendronic Acid has caused me nasty side effects possibly due to having irritable bowel issues. I have just been informed that there is an eight month waiting list. Is this waiting time normal in the UK? Would appreciate some feedback please.

BLEEDING NON STOP
Hiya ladies...... I am so stressed out and scared. After my failed 3rd cycle in January, my period has taken a bad turn with heavy clots and bleeding lasting about 18 days. My Gynecologist said it’s due to the hormonal drug that it will come back to normal. It’s been the same which is appalling. I can

Alendronic acid
Hi I have two very conflicting reports on AA. I was prescribed it whilst on 5mg pred some 4 months or so ago. I didn’t take it as dentists threw their arms up in horror! I took their advice as I was having implants and have one other bout to go through. This morning my doctor told me I must take

The so called 'Healthy' food plate
Today I went to one of my other charities called Brain Tumour Support and today they had a dietician there. I can say that I respectfully had to disagree with some of the things she said. When she was speaking about dairy she made it sound like all calcium comes from cow's milk and that we need cow's

Flax Seed
Hi everyone, I don't eat fish, bought some ground flax seed yesterday to put on my porridge., I don't eat red meat at all nor sausages and very rarely bacon. Fish makes me cringe so thought I would add flax seed to my diet for the omega 3. Thought it might help my AF. Does anyone else eat it?

Bisphosphonates and Afib
Due to breast cancer 20 months ago which was estrogen positive I have to take Anastrozole which is a AI (aromatase inhibitor). This can deplete bone density quickly hence I had to have a dexa scan which found I had osteoporosis. Due to this I was prescribed Alendronic Acid which had awful side effects
