Heavy legs and breathlessness
My legs feel heavy and stiffen up very quickly if I walk on any hard surface like pavements or even supermarket floors for more than a few minutes. It's particularly bad going up any incline, however slight. I literally feel as if I am having to drag my legs and the effort makes me really breathless.

Am I going mad?
Hi! I've had so much helpful information from this forum and made copious notes over the last few weeks, I was determined I could get by without asking for help, but no. I'm so upset, after what I've decided is my last visit to the GP as I'm fed up of being fobbed off and coming out like a gibbering

Magnesium butter
Decided to try Sweet Bee magnesium butter as supposed to help sleep and RLS. Rub it on soles of feet,legs plus forehead( my idea!). First night woke with RLS...since then really helped and no RLS during the night. Not cheap...£31 inc postage but only use small amount. May be worth a try?? I'm not on

Ferritin low.... what's happening here?
Hi everyone, Had my annual Medichecks blood test which came back with a surprising result. My ferritin level has decreased from last year. I followed all the invaluable blood test protocol advice from this site and since my results last year have been taking Thorne Basic B, D3, K2-Mk7, magnesium

How long did it take for your ACTH to come back?
Hi everyone, Hope your all safe and well. So i am currently taking 15mg of hydrocortisone a day. I was diagnosed with secondary adrenal insufficiency after i had adrenal crisis last year. It has been about 14months now and a recent synactican test shows my cortisol level at 0mins at 70 and only rises

AF Medications
I have had AF for a few months now, I have also attended A & E four times recently with palpations and chest pains. Each time they have given me either, sometimes both, potassium or magnesium intravenously. I have also had a kidney transplant (4 years ago). They cannot give me any more medication

Hashimoto's and insomnia
Anyone else struggles with insomnia especially whilst in a flare-up? My doctor has said that insomnia isn't a typical symptom of Hashimoto's hypothyroidism and will only prescribe drowsy antihistamines to help me sleep. Does anyone have any tips or supplements to help with this? I've tried sleep hygiene

No meds….yet
Hi New to this forum and RLS. Insomnia is crippling me and affecting everything from weight gain to cognitive abilities. I am desperately seeking sleep. GP has prescribed Quinine but little affect. Also on iron tablets, B12, Vit D, Magnesium. Next stop Ropinole. I’m scared to take this as there appears

Time to come off Ropinerole 4 years after being on Pramepexole 7 years. What else can I try????
I've been on these and both caused augmentation and with both was increased to maximum dose yet still had restless legs causing sleepless nights, anxiety and depression.Before I went onto medication I found out I was severely anaemic, I don't know how it happened to me as I was previously fit and healthy

Any red flags in these results or am I barking up wrong tree?

My issue is that I am extremely fatigued and struggling to cope with the activities of a normal day and have been feeling this way for several months. Due

THANK YOU 🙏
Thank you to everyone that has helped with with my query around Magnesium Taurate. It appears Ethical Nutrition is recommended by Dr Gupta and is a lot cheaper than others I looked at. I thought it might be helpful to attach nutritional information to see what we’re getting! Thank you all.

Hi all,I have hashimotos and hypothyroidism and have been a member on the thyroid forum for a while. It's been suggested I post on here for some interpretation of some bloods. I have been tested for PA but was told it was normal, but I'm sceptical given what I've read and what I'm experiencing. Apologies

Update on bloods
Hi all, I posted a couple of weeks ago as my blood results had dropped slightly from the previous lot 6 months ago and I am feel pretty rotten. GP wouldn't up my levo from 100 as results were "normal"......starting to despise that word!! She did however agree to some vitamin tests and T3 (which she

After trying 500mg of B1 for about 2wks, I decided to stop and instead try a B complex and magnesium for a while before starting back on B1. I’ve now been taking a B complex every day that has 50mg of B1 and 2mg of B6, along with an extended release capsule of 250mg magnesium every 3 days. I’ve been

Distribution of medication and supplements throughout the day.
In my efforts to optimise the effect of C/L medication and oral supplements, I would like advice on this, to promote positive drug / supplements interactions if possible and to prevent any negative interactions. For example, I am familiar with the interaction carbidopa <> B6, but what is the best time

On the injury couch…😕
“Hello, old friend!”🤣 I haven’t been here for a long while actually but over the past week I have picked up a niggle that has stopped me running. I’m afraid I blame it on my new strength and conditioning routine - you know, that stuff we so often ignore that’s supposed to make us stronger runners!🤣
