Taken cod liver oil... scared I've harmed my baby
Hi everyone.. hoping for some reassurance/advice. I have been taking seven seas orange cod liver oil for about a month or so. Last weekend found out I was 5 weeks pregnant. I continued to take the oil for the last week but today have read you're not supposed to take cod liver oil while pregnant due to

Foot Cooling/Heating
No, I don't do HVAC. My daughter, who has CMT, tried out a pair of Medicmac Hot and Cold Therapy socks to help with the burning in her feet. She said they helped immensely, so I thought I'd pass her review on here. I just ordered some NatraCure Hot/Cold socks to use for my alternating burning/icy

SURGERY?
I am facing a full spinal fusion mainly due to double Scoliosis with Cobb angles of 38.4 degrees. I had a C2 through T4 fusion in Dec. 2014. Due to the Scoliosis, I am having significantly more general pain, especially in my neck and Sciatica in my right leg hip joint ("electric shocks"). Then radiated

Follow up on leg pain -- Spinal Surgery?
Thanks to all who suggested I see an ortho to rule out spine issues. Turns out that at L4/L5 I have pretty severe spinal stenosis. The ortho thinks surgery is my best option, as other options would give me short lived or incomplete relief. I'm inclined to agree, since I'm still fairly young (64) and

Sunday Lunches
My sister lives abroad and comes over to the UK each year for our summer months. Last year with all that was going on only stayed 4/5wks in case Barbados put the UK on their no entry list etc. I was fine meeting her at our favourite restaurants for Sunday lunch and/or even additional mid week, as

Wondering…
Just wondering if these mouth sores ( have three, and now I have a cold sore on the outside top lip where the sore are inside my lip that is not painful or the usual tingling feeling you get with a cold sore), a sign that my immune system is acting up? Wouldn’t Plaquenil stop this from happening? Been

Anterior Spinal Fusion means I can no longer sit upright due to severe pain in my SI Joints/Sit bones. Anyone else had the same happen?
I had a 2 level (L4 /L5 & L5/S1) Posterior Fusion revised in 2017. Plus an additional Anterior Fusion at the same level. Now, 4 years later I am unable to sit upright. Not even in bed. Eating or movement in my lower abdomen also causes a great deal of pain in my SI Joints, groin, and thighs. I'd be

Shrinking??
Hello mighty warriors!! Just wondering if anyone who has mets to spine has lost their height?? I had spinal surgery in August of 2020 due to a tumor that was crushing two of my vertebraes. My bones were to weak for rods so the dr basically removed the tumor and the crushed bones. I have to wear a brace

Critique My Supplement Stacking? Share Your Protocol?
Update: I can be such an idiot. I have not been diagnosed with PK. I have REM Sleep Behavior Disorder and my neurologist was kind enough to let me know PK is in my future (and/or LBD). My supplement list is intended to keep PK and LBD away (though truth be told my balance is not what it used to be, and

I feel I am progressing well the first 5 minutes I tend to feel tired quickly then it seems to clear and I can just keep going. Question is when to hit the tarmac as I have been running in the fields following spinal surgery July last year?
