(sigh) another visit to the Emergency Department
Yesterday (1/29/2021) after dinner I had tachycardia, 135 bpm, diagnosed upon discharge as SVT (again). I took a Diltiazem as prescribed by my electrophysiologist and waited an hour with no change, so off we went to the ED. Thankfully normal sinus rhythm returned with two IV doses of Diltiazem. My prior

Recent Results TSH: 4.99mlU/L ( 0.24 - 4.2) was 2.72 mlU/L in October 2020 ( I have been supplementing with Iodine for the last 12 weeks plus Zinc, Selenium, Vit E and NAC ) Have read to expect TSH to rise for a period of iodine supplementation, and then it will settle. A bit anxious about this. T4

Weight gain
Can anyone explain to me in simple terms why, if you are hypo, there is weight gain? My weight seems to be galloping away and I don’t seem to have any control whatsoever. I have been through periods of practically starving myself to prove a point with very little weight loss. It’s becoming a bit of

Amlodipine question
Does anyone know if amlodipine can be taken on an ad hoc need-to basis as opposed to a once-daily therapy? My mom's BP is largely stable on a very low sodium diet, and only spikes if we go off track. Thank you.

Low sodium levels anyone?
I started to feel headaches and a bit woozy when I reduced from 3mg to 2 of Pred, so my GP has increased me back up to thr original 15mg, reducing soon to 10 and so on. However, as my kidney function had been low for thr last few months (57) I made a conscious effort to avoid salty foods. Yesterday’s

Post SABR (SBRT) side effects
My father underwent 5 rounds of SABR alongside a 4-month injection of Lupron. He finished his last radiation treatment on Feb 18th. The last three days he has been experiencing a lot of gas and diarrhea. I messaged the radiation oncologist and he suggested Imodium and the BRAT diet. Anybody have any

History of iodine, cretinism, hypo etc
Found this really fascinating article Abstract The last part of the 19th century was a period of great achievements in medicine and endocrinology. The thyroid gland evolved from being considered a rudimentary structure to an organ related to specific diseases. The singular importance of iodine became

Pfizer vaccine after Shinrix
Hello everyone. I am looking for a little advice. I had a Shinrix shot Feb 17 and have a Pfizer COVID shot booked for tomorrow. On the consent form, there is a box to check if you have had another vaccine in the past 14 days. It never occurred to me that this might be an issue. I booked the COVID shot

Citalopram
I am quite traumatised as Citalopram almost killed me. I had to stop it cold turkey in November. The side effects came on slowly over about 8 months beginning with feeling withdrawn and one muscle shaking in my hip. It progressed to problems with coordination including feeling my eyes were not working

Iodine raises TSH
https://www.medpagetoday.com/infectiousdisease/covid19/91049 This is an interesting story about a small French randomized trial looking at using iodine mouthwash as a COVID-19 prevention. What's interesting is that participants in the intervention group "experienced a jump in thyroid-stimulating hormone

Neck rash - what's causing it? What can ease it?
Hello, writing on behalf of my wife. She has a persistent (2+ years) neck rash which 'flares-up' from time to time. It's 'itchy' and uncomfortable. We've been to the doctor several times about the rash. Doc says nothing to worry about, just apply 'Simple' moisturiser. Medical history: Female aged 35
