Iron Infusion
The doctor doubled the dose to 40mg which didnt seem to help so I have dropped it and I am relying on
sodium
bicarbonate
to neutralise the acid. This is useful but still a bit painful and I don't think its very healthy.

Inhaled bicarbonate
Hi everyone! I recently saw a severe asthma specialist who prescribed me inhaled bicarbonate to use with my nebulizer (it's in liquid form) when my asthma is flaring. I have done it a few days in a row and have been pleasantly surprised by how nice it feels. It's not a replacement for ventolin but the

Medication absorption / metabolisation
Does anybody have information on factors affection the absorption / effect of stimulant medication? I already know about the effect of vit C and other acidic foods etc and that alkaline things like bicoarbonate of soda can potentially prolong the effect of medication. I've also read that low zinc levels

Metabolic Acidosis
I told him how exhausted I was feeling & he prescribed
Sodium
Bicarbonate
for a month. So I have Metabolic Acidosis. My GP's have told me now (after I had finished the initial order) that they had issued more of these tablets.

Hyponatremia, Raynaud's and P.S.V.T
I recently was taken to hospital with a bad episode of P.S.V.T., a condition I've had since I was eight. Blood tests showed that my sodium level was a bit low.

Are all Blood Pressure Meds Awful?
I realise they may be/are lifesaving, but after nearly 30 years I am running out of options for BP control. For many years I took 25mg atenolol, 20 Lisinopril and 1.5 Indapamide. The latter seemed to make the biggest difference. I can’t take large doses of beta blockers as they stop me from breathing

Blood test results in full. Can anyone find a cause in there for my continued fatigue etc?
I still have the same symptoms, although some have improved a bit, but not gone, by any means. Still housebound. I list below Blood test results. Can anyone suggest an issue that may cause my symptoms because my GP says no action, normal. Serum 25 - HO Vit D3 level 135nmol/L 50-174

Pain in right side
Have a tender painful area on my right side toward my upper back. At first I thought it must be a deep bruise, but it is not getting better. I don’t believe it is the right location to be my liver or a kidney. I do not have a gallbladder. What is it? Could it be my kidney after all? Doctor appointment

Mum's battle
Hi all, Mum has suffered from adrenal insufficiency over the past 15 years, as well as pernicious anemia, hypothyroidism, low WBC count and was hospitalised several times with low electrolytes. The electrolyte imbalance was caused by the cortisol acetate supplement she takes. She was numerous doctors

sodium
Hi I got blood results recently and I have hypothyroidism which is been treated with Eltroxin 25mcg and I also have low sodium. Sodium level is 134 which is just one below normal range. I’m not been treated for this and I’m wondering is this something I should be concerned about and get it investigated
