Approved additives and E-numbers (UK)
As food additives are often discussed, I thought it might be useful to post the current list of approved additives in the UK. Note that the use of substances in foods is largely separate to their use in medicines. One example being Titanium dioxide which is now banned in foods in the EU and Northern

How I reinvented my life after GCA.
I had already retired as a Flight Attendant from a large commercial airline. I then went on to a part time job which I absolutely loved. I always said I was never going to stop working. I was healthy and could literally run rings around the younger employees. Life was good and I was so happy. 4 months

Follow up to my last post about nausea & unable to eat.
Hi again folks. I posted 16 days ago about feeling weak, nauseous & being unable to eat plus my reluctance to go to A & E as I'd been with similar symptoms just a couple of weeks before. However, I did go to A & E where I was admitted after a blood test confirming low sodium levels (again) and a really

It's starting out a better year for me.
For the first time since my accident I had a blood test that came back a lot more positive for me than it is. Since i had my TBI i have been having my blood tests done nearly every month which always came back low for sodium. I was diagnosed with SIADH and i changed my diet by myself to help my sodium

Feeling cold despite overactive thyroid
I feel the cold all the time but GPs can't seem to find an issue. I'm currently in a heated home with three jumpers and two pairs of socks on, plus a blanket! GP did full blood tests, showing an overactive thyroid but all other tests within range (detailed below). I take 100mcg Levothyroxine a day and

Low Salt Cheddar Cheese
Hi all, I was just wondering if anyone knows of any low salt cheddar cheese? I need to go on a low salt/sodium diet and I love cheddar cheese but not so keen on the soft cheeses. Thanks

Calcium Citrate questions
I’ve been taking Calcium Carbonate on and off for over 5 years but my stomach really doesn’t like it. It makes me gassy and and causes me to have stomach ache. I have read that Calcium Citrate is more gentle on the stomach so I am trying to find what the equivalent calcium citrate is to calcium carbonate

Post Operative Steroids
I am now home after having a new knee fitted. They kept me in an extra night due to being in surgery much longer than anticipated and low sodium levels, so saline drip overnight. I am guessing I was given more anaesthesia than planned, I am finding that I am more tired than I've ever felt. I can
