Natural T4 vs synthetic T4
All the experts say there two are essentially the same. But is that definitely the case? Some people (my wife for one) can't tolerate synthetic T4. At present she's T3 only. Just wondering if she might be able to tolerate Armour or other NDT, eg. because the natural thyroxine is bound to a transport

problems wearing glasses?
Hi. I’ve always worn glasses - very shortsighted so a strong prescription and heavy lenses. For a long time I’ve had to pay for the lightest possible lenses and small frames, because of headaches. But despite that, in the last 2-3 years I get sores on the sides of my nose where the glasses rest. It’s

Radium223 has not been a success, is Enzalutamide a good next option?
Stage 4 PCA for last 3 years. Had 6 cycles of Chemo and then Abiraterone for 18+ months (PSA dropped to 0.2 then more recently rose to 58 in June '23 ). Abiraterone eventually stopped working and I was able to join Radium 223 trial. Completed 5 of 6 cycles of Radium 223, then elected to stop since

Adverse reaction to eyedrops
I was prescribed Latanoprost for one eye. After two doses I experienced severe pain in the eye which lasted at least eight hours. I stopped taking the drops and the bad pain subsided. But I still feel mild discomfort in the eye and it feels a bit gritty. At night I feel mild discomfort in the eye and

Discontinuing hydroxychloroquine (or not)
I have fairly mild SLE and have stopped hydroxychloroquine because of some unrelated retinal damage caused by sepsis. I find I am tired all the time, more sun sensitive than ever, and frequently get oral ulcers. I'm not sure whether to risk more eye damage by returning to hydroxychloroquine or to risk

Is this IBS bit of a weird one.
So since 10th February this year I started with diarrhea only really once a day after about 2 months (april) I made a doctor appointment where they felt my stomach and it was not hard or sore at all, he wanted to do a stool sample and blood sample which I did and it all came back as normal, still having

Atrial natriuretic peptide
So I went on a bit of an adventure. My last episode, while again still thankfully not as intense as previous episodes, had an interesting twist that I hadn't really noticed before. I had to pee 6 times in the space of an hour. So I went searching on the internet as we do, and I learned about atrial

Possible IBS but GP doesn’t know for sure…..
Hi. I’m really stuck with what’s going on with my body and movements. At the end of March I had what I thought was a standard tummy bug, I didn’t think much of it. After 4 days of diarrhoea and not eating (even water was going through) I tried eating a plain piece of bread. Needless to say that didn’

Dry eyes and mouth
Is sea buckthorn oil capsules good for sjogrens syndrome? I had this diagnosis yrs ago and I know there is a correlation between sjogrens and hashimotos which I also have. Tried lots of eye lubricants (Prescriotion and OTC ) and oral sprays over the years but nothing has helped. Think I may have heard

Hashimoto and Thyroid Eye Disease
Hi, I developed symptoms in my left eye about two weeks ago. First thought it was hayfever related, but it's only in my left eye. It started feeling worse (itching, sensation of swollen eye, some swelling in the under eye area) so I went to go see an ophthalmologist. He diagnosed me with Thyroid Eye

ET and healing
Hello. Has anyone experience of slow healing/healing complications following surgery? On both occasions of punch biopsy the wounds have been slow to heal, have become infected requiring antibiotics, similarly with a tooth extraction. I am on the waiting list for eye surgery and am anxious that I may

eye problem
Hi all, any advice as it being Saturday. Yesterday, right eye got a swelling at the side of eyebrow, not painful just hurt to touch. By last night small lump which then became very itchy developed.

My experience with CKD
I wrote this in a chat and then realized that maybe sharing my experience with everyone, might help someone. So here's my story. I too, have CKD 3A and I also was given the, "ok you have it, see you next time!", from my GP and even from the first nephrologist I went to. It didn't seem right to
