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

ABLATION +2 YEARS + COVID JAG
Just had my Covid jag, completely painless, a minor scratch and that was it. Unfortunately the lead up to the Jag was not so good, when I had passed the 2 booths verifying my eligibility/conditions etc I felt like I was going to get a lethal injection as both explained in great detail the potential side

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 The side effects came on slowly over about 8 months beginning with feeling withdrawn and one muscle shaking in my hip.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

TEN WHOLE MILES!!!
Unbelievably, I have managed to run 10 miles this morning! After accidentally stopping 500m short a couple of weeks ago (tragic! ☹️), I was determined to get out today and finish the job! Started well, did the 1st half with a friend, then I had to get myself back on higher ground to finish off. Nearly

PSA shooting up and Oncologist says we’ve run out of options.
Hi everyone. This is my first post having been a complete bystander since joining almost 2 yrs ago. First of all I just want to say what an incredible community and source of inspiration this site has been to myself and my partner- even when feeling at your weakest you are the strongest people I have

Coming off Sodium Valproate
I stopped taking sodium valproate about three weeks ago after cutting down to half a pill for a few months. I'm a little worried as I've seen a lot said about the possibility of seizures and would like to know how long of not taking it would have me in the clear? I'm unable to go see a Dr so would really

Hello , my question relates to my bloods, re Vitamin B12 replete Plasma Folate level, is a result of 7ng/ml ( 4.0-20.0) considered low?
Think i may have hypothyroidism. I have epilepsy and been using medication for 40yrs, sodium valproate/epilim. Just discovering it can stop vitamins and minerals being absorbed into the body properly and cause Thyroid problems. My bloods came back as deficient in vitamin D, as 24 nmol/l , testing range

Breakfast smoothie
I'm looking for a breakfast smoothie recipe that will keep me going to lunch. Something that is low potassium, phosphorous and sodium? My normal go to is banana and oats but looking for something with spinach and banana replacement?

Great results with vitamins, next steps?
Hi all I wanted to say thanks to all those who helped me when I was (and do) feel pretty crappy. As you can see from the attached, thanks to your advice with supplementation I’m now at a great level with my vitamins and you can see the impact it has had on my thyroid results. TSH AUG - 0.181, NOV -

B12 and electrolyte imbalance
Hi folks I have been struggling with low sodium due to laxative use, (I have severe IBS). In the process of trying to correct the sodium I changed meds to Linzess and took sodium. I think that caused an electrolyte imbalance. Now I am feeling really bad with weak legs, bad vision problems, shortness

Thought hashimotos, Now graves
Well after a year of thinking I had hashimotos (lots of hypo symptoms, including low t4, positive tpo antibodies), treated this with levo. I then had a 'flip', came off levo, symptoms remained, so had the TSH receptor antibody test and tested positive for Graves Disease (with a range of symptoms, palpitations

Sodium benzoate in soft drinks?
Hi everyone. I hope you are doing ok in this difficult time. I wanted to know if anyone has ever had a reaction to sodium benzoate (also known as E211), which is a preservative found in a lot of processed foods. Sometimes I feel that my throat/chest is a bit irritated when I drink Diet Coke but then

Information about spinal cord compression.
Has anyone experienced a spinal cord compression or fracture? Can you share your experiences. Has anyone experienced what it means to prevent one. We know that getting an MRI to show the urgency of treatment is one thing and then the mention of surgery. We don't know what that means. Who handles this

Desperate for answers after negative Hirschsprungs Disease result today for my 4 year old boy.
I wondered if anyone could offer me any advice please. My 4 yr old had a rectal biopsy done at bham children's on 5th Jan. It's come back negative for HD today. We are now being referred back to his ongoing paediatrician at Warwick hospital - we have an appt on 27th Jan. Joshua has been impacted most
