Blood results - I don't know what they mean!
Hello everyone, I'm new to this so please bear with me. I have recently been diagnosed with severe auto-immune hypothyroidism for which I have begun treatment. Along with the thyroid bloods there were kidney ones and I was wondering whether they are ok as they are close to the edge of the ranges. Serum

Midway through Radium 223 and look what I caught....
The treatments have left me pooped but somehow I muster up and go ocean fishing for salmon. This is from Friday. Ocean season closes today.....I got out 7 times. Kicks my butt, but it really motivates me.

It’s 3am and I have a migraine
Hi all, I’m a 21 year old female with genetic history of migraines, my grand father had surgery on his brain because of migraines (weird to me), and my aunt has a pseudotumor on the optic nerve. I’ve been dealing with migraines since I was a kid. The earliest I remember is around 7. I have been on countless

Thinkin Bout Things, Salt this time
With a bit of time, even things like the COVID virus are accommodated by our fears and broader concerns bubble back up. One of the challenges faced by a lot of people with serious chronic illness is that they are alone physically or emotionally. As I think about these past weeks and staying at home

Seeking a salt substitute
Since I went on a low sodium diet due to heart failure and kidney disease, I have been searching for a salt substitute that I like, while avoiding anything with chemical content. I have tried Mrs. Dash table blend, etc., and it's okay but not real satisfactory for me. The best so far appears to be

Difference between calcium citrate and calcium carbonate
I just read an article that someone who takes antacids should be taking calcium citrate. I have big stomach issues so I take a lot of different things for my stomach and I had never heard this. My latest dexa scan indicated more damage to my bones in the last two years. I already suffer from severe osteoporosis

L-thyroxine Malabsorption Due to Calcium Carbonate Impairs Blood Pressure, Total Cholesterolemia, and Fasting Glycemia
Just in case anyone thinks that advice to separate calcium (and iron) from levothyroxine is a figment of our imaginations, have a look at this paper. Not only does the paper make a point about separating taking of calcium and levothyroxine, by a long time, but they emphasise that doctors, including

Random attacks
I think most of us are aware of what causes flare ups, be it specific foods, stress etc. But does anyone just get random attacks for no reason? This week I’ve had 2 really bad bouts of diarrhoea, Imodium helped but I still have the cramps and general pains. Nothing unusual eaten this week, been good

Blood test results TSH 16 Ferritin 14
Good evening, Clearly my TSH & Ferritin is terrible. I had a TT in Nov was on 125 mg but I started on a dose of 150 mg today. I have been given some Ferrous Sulfate tablets to take too. I have kindly been advised that my Ferritin needs to increase to allow my body to abosord my Levo. Please could

Plain or Self Raising Flour? Baking Powder or Bicarbonate of Soda?
To the lots of you cooking experts here: What’s the difference if I use Plain or Self Raising flour or does it not matter which I use? Going to attempt to make my first ever plain no frills coconut cake. Yum! Thanks!

My persistent mystery cough stopped in 3 days by nebulizing food grade hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)
You need to add baking soda (
sodium
bicarbonate
) to help dissolve glutathione powder for the nebulizer.

Anxiety
Hey everyone. I'm a bit new here. This is going to be a bit of a long one but I guess I'll start by stating the obvious: I've been suffering from some pretty nasty anxiety since January. I've always been an anxious person to some extent but it never really interfered with my day to day life, or they

For those of us who are gluten/soya/dairy/ intolerant... Something comforting to bake, my modified recipe as requested...
In these difficult times for us folk who have so many food intolerances, it's even harder to find something nice to eat that doesn't hurt us! Apart from calories of course! Although this recipe includes almonds for this who are tree nut intolerant, the almond flour can be substituted with dessicated

Struggle with fibre
Hi it seems that any kind of fibrous food sets my IBS off, and fatty foods give me heartburn. Do you think there may be a reason for this? I am taking some probiotics and will take Imodium regularly, although on lockdown haven’t needed to. So really just asking if anyone else is the same and what foods

Random toothpaste question
I hope everyone is, well. My friend recommended oral b 3 d white toothpaste but not sure if safe in pregnancy, does anyone know? I think I read somewhere that if it contains sodium hydoxide it's no good. Thanks

ALD with normal labs.
Hey y'all. I'm from the states so some terminology may be different. My story: I've been drinking moderately to heavily for 15 years, with a few years off while pregnant. I quit 49 days ago. Since stopping I have experienced a range of concerning symptoms. Feeling unsteady, as if the ground is rocking
