Losartan Side Effects
Hi everyone, Was wondering if any of you taking losartan for proteinuria experience debilitating muscle pain from it. I've taken it for a year for proteinuria (was at 1700 now around 500) and it helped great with that, but I have terrible muscle and joint pain at least half the day in shoulders, arms

More about Dexascan / AA / Adcal
I opened up intending to post about my latest AA Prescription dilemma - and still would like some advice. I wasn't sure whether to add to Blackcat1M's post - but it seemed a bit rude to invade her space! Anyhow, my GP prescribed me AA and Adcal -D3 early May on basis I had been on Pred since PMR arrived

Oh dear!
After gastroscopy I have been sticking to a dairy and gluten free diet, managed to get down to 3.5mg Prednisolone and was doing really well but with increasing pain , I'm back up to 5mg. Do I contact GP they seem to have forgotten me? Or persevere on my own!

Newbie looking for advice on recent test result
I was diagnosed with an underactive thyroid in april 2022. What a rollercoaster! Do I have an autoimmune thyroid disorder? My first test was looking at reason for a change in bowel movements and fatigue. Doctor responded directly to the TSH level and placed me on 25mg levothyroxine. Serum

Newly diagnosed with CLL and wondering what tests to request.
Hi all, I didn't feel well after partial thyroidectomy. Had some teats and was told I have cll. Was told just to watch and be retested every three months. I was tested for CBC and differential. From reading some of these posts, it looks like there is a genetic test available. I have my first appt.

Essential Oils, Calming & Anxiety
How can I be sure to get the 'Real Thing', when purchasing Lavender, Bergomot, Jasmine, Lemon Balm and other Essential Oils? Amazon.com and other places are known to have a lot of fakes from China and other places, even made in the USA. Customer ratings don't mean that much anymore either. You can

Aristo levo
hi, I can’t tolerate Teva levothyroxine. I usually get Mercury Pharma since telling my local pharmacy this suits me best, however, today I’ve been given Aristo 100 mcg and I’ve never had this before and don’t like changing manufacturer. I just get so annoyed by the ignorance out there that we need to

Blood Test Results - TPA seem strange
Hi, I have just received my Medichecks results. The result for TPA is 9 The range is <34 I know this fluctuates but was surprised to see it under range. My doctor checked it in 2007 and it was 56. It has not been checked since. So, do I still have Hashimotos? Does it fluctuate so much? I have

I’ve been taking too much T3
please can someone help. I’m taking 50 mcg levo and 10 mcg lio (2x 5 mcg) daily. However I’ve just checked my meds and realised for the last month I’ve been taking 2 x 10 mcg per day T3. When I collected my prescription from the hospital I had a mix of 10 mcg and 5 mcg - I must have mixed them up.
