slow release Mebeverine
Hi everyone. Just looking for some advice about slow release Mebeverine. I take the 3 times daily Mebeverine which I seem to take as and when. I don't have flares but experience loose stools and cramps about twice a week and take Imodium. I have had ibsd for the past 20yrs and gall bladder removal

Radium 223 instead of enzalutamide
My dad mentioned that he’d like to come off enzalutamide because of always feeling tired and the doc has agreed and is now starting him on a course of Radium 223. The aim is to target 2 small bone mets and bring them under control. Apparently they are becoming more active so the enzalutamide hasn’t held

Melatonin for PD
Melatonin (5-methoxy-N-acetyltryptamine): powerful antioxidant that treats abnormalities in sleep-wake cycle, jet lag, cancer, and Parkinson’s disease. Epileptic children have a higher incidence of sleep problems; epilepsy is exacerbated by sleep deprivation. Melatonin has antiepileptic activity. Mechanism

Wondering about Betadine/Povidone-Iodine solution and Thyroid
Hello all, I am preparing for a vacation - something long overdue :-) In my preparations, I decided I needed to bring along a nasal "mist" that would essentially decontaminate my nose from any yucky stuff, viruses - covid or whatever else may be lurking. I just realized that this solution has iodine

Why is my TSH increasing?
I had my thyroid removed in Jan 2020 due to thyroid cancer and had RAI in June 2020. Since June 2020 my levothyroxine dose has stayed the same. My TSH has always been below range my levels are been suppressed due to cancer. My last blood test at GP surgery showed my TSH has increased to 0.43 from 0.22

I am 6 years into stage 4 prostate cancer. Have had SOC treatment in UK. Best PSA was 0.08 about 2 years ago. Since then have had bicalutimide, enzalutimide some localised radiotherapy for back pain. Also been on cabazitaxel, which eventually failed. I am now into my 2nd. treatment of radium 223. So

Is Long-Term Antithyroid Use the Best Treatment for Graves Disease?
This is a three-way chat among endos about long-term treatment of Graves using methimazole (effectively the same as carbimazole). Interesting the way they say that the 18 to 24 month "standard" period of treatment was based on assumption. That true long-term treatment (five, maybe ten, years) is quite

still decompensated after 5 months any hope?
my partner diagnosed with decompensated cirrhosis on 22.12.21. Stopped drinking that day, 5 months later eating healthy high protein low salt, doing everything he has been asked. At the start sodium was dangerously low so he couldn't take water tablets - now his sodium is back within normal levels whilst

Salivary Glands Swollen 6 Months Post RAI
Hi everyone and thanks for reading! I had RAI treatment in October of 2021. My dose was 100 mci. I immediately had swollen and painful salivary glands which subsided in a day or two. I have had no issues with them until the beginning of June. Now, they constantly swell when eating. Some days are worse

Updated Thyroid levels and new Vitamin readings
Hi, I recently posted as a Newbie (under the name Sailorbo, which I've now discontinued as I had a previous registration with the BHF). As a quick recap, had a full Thyroidectomy last September due to Papillary Cancer. I'm not having Radioactive Iodine as I already have poor saliva and it might make

Full panel and limited panel test results
I have my results back after highlighting my decision to do so on here a few weeks back. I took two panels of tests from different providers: Blue Horizon (test - Premium Gold) and Monitor My Health (MMH), both taken from the same single blood draw at my GP's surgery. Blue Horizon tested the same as

Test Results Are In and There’s Improvement
Hi All, Yesterday, I had my first urinalysis and a renal panel done. This was the last step to take before being referred to a nephrologist. Well, it’s not likely I will be referred now because my creatinine went from 1.13 a year ago to 1.05 yesterday. My GFR went from 52 to 56. (Calculated using
