Blood in mouth
Hi, hubby is 18 months post total gastrectomy and 12 months post ECX chemo after the operation. In the last few weeks/months he has ocassionally woken to find a small quantity of blood on his pillow or shirt if he has fallen asleep in the chair. Unfortunately I haven’t been there when this has happened

Should I take beta blockers
Been having my pulse running up some, and I'm noticing that I'm getting it more after hours after using the Methamizole my last TSH level a week ago was 4.76 high normal. Two weeks before that TSH it was 7.79. I'm taking 2.5 Methamizole once a day Monday and Friday. I'm wondering now if I'm going hyper

The death of a dog....
I am a dog lover. I am 57 and have never lived without a dog(s) in my life. Until yesterday. I had to make the decision to euthanize my beloved dog. You should my face today. I cried a river. With my health going downhill and living below the poverty line, plus my husband does not want another

Nortriptyline
Hi all, I’ve been diagnosed with neuropathic pain today and I have a few questions. Obviously the diagnosis is a lot to take in first of all. I was on amitriptyline for about 9 months previously, I took myself off it a month ago because the side effects were horrendous. My consultant prescribed me

Anastrozole
I’ve recently been diagnosed with lobular carcinoma and am having a double mastectomy on Thursday. Last week was my first visit with an Oncologist. I started taking anastrozole on Wednesday. Today I feel like I’m coming down with a cold. Is this a side effect from the medication? I don’t want the surgery

I'm wondering now if I should start looking for another Thyroid Doctor.
So I went for another blood drawn on my TSH and haven't heard from my Specialist( had blood drawn yesterday) she usually calls the next day. Before I left I got a copy of my last TSH level which was 7.76 and the Specialist had left me a message to cut my pill of 5 mg of Methamizole in half and to take

F.D.A. Approves First Home Testing for 3 Breast Cancer Mutations, With Caveats
Interesting news: The FDA has approved 23andMe, a genetic testing service, to offer genetic testing for BRCA mutations associated with breast cancer in Ashkenazi Jews. However, there are some concerns- this service will only test for 3 possible mutations, but there are at least 1,000 more that won't

Hope I'm making sense...
If my TSH level came out 7 should I be taking 2.5 Methamizole once a day Monday and Friday only? And is that too much? Reason I ask is because the Doctor forgot she was given me that same amount except it was Wednesday also with Monday and Friday... and wanted me to continue to take the same amount,

Newbie needing help
Hi Im new on here and was diagnosed as underactive approximately 8 years ago after having to change doctors to make anyone listen. During that time i went up four dress sizes and got really ill. Over a number of years my dose has been increased to 200 mcg of levothyroxine. This stopped me putting on

MS and things to avoid for the newly diagnosed.
Hello chat room friends and family. This is a post that I created over a year ago. It has such Vital Information in it for the newly diagnosed that ,I thought it would be a waste not to repost it since we have so many new members and our chat room . The responses were as good as the post and many

VERY UPSET
I have been on 4 a day 1mg lorazepam reducing 1mg a month. I agreed with my pharmacist practitioner this as a plan. Unfortunately a new practitioner without any consultation with me just wrote out a prescription for 3 a day for a month then he proposes to drop to 2 a month and then 1 a month with no

Does anyone else find sinemet makes them sleepy? My hubby's neurologist says it is a very unusual symptom...
We just had a very deflating appointment with a specialist and even though I insisted that off sinemet that hubby is not sleepy, he said maybe it was narcolepsy.

TRHR gene defect
Anyone know anything about it? Apparently, genetically speaking, my thyroid is fantastic (I was expecting DIO2 defect, but mine is wonderful), but I have upstream problems with TRH receptor and TSH signalling (PDE8B). The blurb suggests that I would have higher TSH (compared to my Frees) but I have never

Eliquis & Osteoarthritis pain
I'm on Eliquis for 10 weeks due to pulmonary embolism. Will likely be on it for life. My long time osteoarthritis is making life miserable due to taking away Advil or Aleve. Tylenol does nothing! Can I take MSM? Or anything else??
