Magnesium Taurate side effects.
I have taken Magnesium Taurate for year’s, firstly Cardiovascular Research combined and then Magnesium Bisglycinate and taurine separately (due to costs and needing a mortgage to buy the combined). Has anyone taken the Magnesium Taurate from Ethical Nutrition? If so did you notice any side effects?

First Time Nebuliser Use
Hi everyone, my Respiratory Consultant has suggested I try nebulising with saline to help clear my chest and hopefully reduce the problem of mucus plugging which then impacts my breathing obviously. I’ve bought the nebuliser and have the saline on prescription. My query is I’ve read when using for the

Update on tests etc
hi all. Just an update after my recent CT scan, and the dreaded bronchoscopy on Tuesday this week. Obviously haven't had full results of latest CT scan, apart from a short note from my consultant to say there was a 6.5 millimetre nodule in ththe Apex of my right lung. They will monitor it, if it stays

Salt water washing post adult Circumcision week 6
It has now almost been 6 weeks post my circumcision surgery and the dry patches of skin still linger on my glans and frenulum. I have read on this forum elsewhere that salt water washes help in clearing these dry patches. I was wondering if 1) I should dip it in saline solution before or after taking

is my pain Endo + did it cause my miscarriages?
finally a community that I can ask! Please help as I’ve seen so many docs and none can give me an answer. I’ve had 3 miscarriages in 12 months. From ovulation from the 1st pregnancy and ever since I now have lower abdominal pain - maybe 3 out of 4 weeks of the month. I never had this pain before

Hashimotos for Sixteen Years, Realizing I Know Next to Nothing
This is a long story, and as with so much in this "we have too much info" age, I'm probably over-responding, but, I was recently blindsided by a new health condition, and I don't fancy having it happen again if there are cues available. I've had hypothyroidism/Hashimotos for 16-17 years, at least based

Question on steam/vapour breathing
I have a question for those who use steam/vapour breathing to ease off their symptoms. Do you use distilled water, reagular tap water, or a saline solution? My specialist seemed puzzled when I asked her this, and said that, in principle, a saline solution is optimal. I currently use distilled water.

Asthma
I'm on a high level of medication for my asthma I've been with lung specialist for 5 years, I was diagnosed with asthma in the 90s but it was mild enough for me to continue work, however as the years increased my asthma was starting to become a problem, well anyway now my asthma has become a real problem

Rheumatologist advices no reduction of prednisolone while adrenal glands not working and has issued emergency hydrocortisone kit
I've had PMR since October 2020 and managed to get down to 2.5mg of prednisolone in February 2023. But after a flare, I had to raise it to 5mg and have been pain-free since then. I started on methotrexate weekly injections (15mg) in December 2023, with the hope of being able to reduce the prednisolone

Vitamins and Minerals - Good or Bad - What I've Recently Discovered
I've been taking quite an array of vitamins and minerals daily. Actually 7 in number, vitamin C, B, D3, K2, Taurine, Magnesium and CoQ10 (I added CoQ10 late last year). Over the last few months all the joints in my body had been getting sore to the point where they really hurt, especially when I had

Better Understanding
I knew and expressed here that I was fearful of crashing this winter as I have since 1995 to varying degrees. I had set a marker of April 01 as a measure. I was successful although I will wait until April 01 to see it in my rear view mirror, and have a celebration although I am already celebrating. Some

antihistamines
hi 👋🏻 think I need some antihistamines to help my ETD. I’ve been using Sudafed last 2 days because the steroid nasal sprays seem to make my ears sore. I know you can only use them for a few days though. I can literally feel the swelling reducing and then swelling up again. So maybe I need an antihistamine

steroid nasal sprays
hi everyone, I’ve been using a steroid nasal spray for ETD and I think it’s making my ears sore and my T louder 🤔 Just wondering if anyone has had similar experiences. My ears get sore and all down the side of my face near my jaw line from my ear to my neck. My right ear registered negative pressure

0.9 saline 1 liter IV infusion.
Last year I asked on the forum if anyone knew where I could get a saline infusion. Come to find out that was heretical and not done in the UK. 🙂 In the USA there are clinics owned and run by nurses where one can get infusions with or without vitamins of your choice. There are also mobile clinics.

Body Temperature Regulation.
How body temperature regulation made it in the symptoms list of the neurological effects of B12 deficiency I have not yet come across. I have experienced body temperature regulation issues my whole life. It results in mild hypothermia. I am well versed in the physicians and nurses understanding of

Updated my Stack (what's in your stack?)
So I updated my stack. What's in your stack? Does it seem to be helping? Success Stories are Welcome.
About 6 weeks ago I cut Methylene Blue out of my stack. My tongue was getting really sore for a long time so I stopped. I don't think this is a side effect of MB, but it has been 6 weeks and

9 month old constant runny nose one side
Hi, our baby is nearly 9 months old and since Christmas he’s had a constant runny nose - clear snot - on just one side, he’s had various coughs and colds due to weather and winter I guess but it’s always dripping that side. He’s had antibiotics after Xmas for a cough and ‘in case’ it was a sinus infection

Another Nebuliser question
Hi - I've been watching tthe discussions about nebulisers. For some time I have thought one might be helpful (COPD severe). My COPD team were fairly unhelpful but the respiritory nurse at my GP surgery as just prescribed some Salbutamol nebules. She is now away on holiday. I have bought myself a portable
