Heartened to know I am not alone in the struggles caused by pramipexole
I have had RLS and PLMD as long as I can remember. Iām sure all of those nights I struggled with symptoms as a child that were brushed off as growing painsā¦RLS. My mom suffers mildly. Unfortunately, both of my daughters also have many challenges that began as teens. What Iāve been through is so complex

Bakers cysts
Hi, does anyone have or have knowledge on bakers cysts behind knees? I haven't been diagnosed with them but my own googling of symptoms and images of them look exactly like my knees look like. Swollen lumps behind knees, sore to touch, stiff, limited movement. I'm getting bloods done tomorrow testing

blood results
Hello. I am normally to be found on the PA forum but, as we all know, one autoimmune disease can often be followed by another. For that reason I have taken the advice of my fellows there and had my thyroid tested. Got the results today. They all seem within range but that doesnāt mean optimal of course

Euthyroid Thyroid Eye Disease
I have had problems with one eye for 9 months now. Started with gritty feeling, watering eye. Inflammation and baggy eye bags. Then fatty bumps appeared to be coming through above one eye, and one eye ball seems slightly higher than the other, and pushed forward slightly. Then came the double vision

I was starting to feel a little better, then........
Following the advice given in reply to my first email 3 months ago and using all the knowledge I have learnt from the questions and answers in the blog, I spoke to my GP and she agreed that I should increase my Levo from 75mcg to 100mcg. She also suggested that I should try Magnesium in the evening

Advice on my non-existent TSH Please
I had radio iodine treatment 5 years ago after having Graves. I am on 75 and 100 Levothyroxine on alternate days (a low dose I know). I was given additional T3 med lythothyronine 18 months ago, 5 mg twice daily which improved my quality of life no end. My thyroid levels have been fairly steady over

lab results continued
hi all Just left the Endo. She said tsh is bit low, so let's half t4 dose one day a week, and continue on t3 5 mcg 2x a day. I'm so surprised she did not say reduce the t3. I am currently on 100 Levo and 10mg lio What do you think bout the reducing Levo to 50 one day of the week? I'm thinking of

I have had my Liothyronine changed from 10mcg daily to having to take 10mcg one day, then 5mcg the next day .
I have no thyroid .I presently take 75 mcg Levo and 10mcg Liothyronine and have felt well on that dose (I have no symptoms that suggest I am over medicated) But my FT3 was 8.5 - because there was only about an hour between me taking my Thyroid medications and the clinic taking bloods for a Thyroid

Watching House
I am off on a long weekend (tomorrow I go back to work), and watching House on Netflix. Funny how they focus on positive ANA for lupus on this. Of course it is never lupus, but the irony is, when you donāt tests positive on ANA - it canāt be lupus. BUT, if people test positive for ANA, you are told

My Story with Hashimoto'S and Delusional PMT
Hello, first of all it was good to have found this group. š Sometimes I feel alone and crazy, because I go for a test and it's "Okay." I'm from Portugal and I take Eutirox 112mg. I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's in 2018, but the test values were not high enough to take medication. (TSH, T4 and T3
