Supplements, nootropics, vitamins, herbs: how do they interact? which are not compatible, which work synergistically and timing?

Starting investigation - Blood Test queries..
Hi! After my first post I managed to speak to a GP and mentioned to them that my most recent TSH was elevated (5.63) along with other stuff and he agreed that at the least I have subclinical hypothyroidism and agreed to do more bloods including a cortisol test to check for Cushings due to my symptoms

Prednisolone/Vitamin D3 timing
I’ve been suffering symptoms of PMR since June 2020 and started treatment in October 2020. Started on 15mg Pred and now down to 11mg - reducing by 1mg every 6 weeks. So far so good! Following original advice from GP I take all medication at 8am with breakfast - this includes Pred, Vitamin D3, Omeprazole

Would Adding 10,000 IU a day of D3 would be a good thing to complement my Niacin 250 mg a day? Maybe NOT
Sometimes I'm Stupid. This is a re-write of my post extolling the virtues of vitamin D3 based on misreading a study and thinking down was up and left was right. I would just delete it but some people have seen it and I want the correction to be here. This is the trial from 2016 that had me excited:

I have taken HU a few times when my platelets rose to 1,500,000.I am a firm believer that food is medicine and do not take medication unless

Thank You for Sharing Knowledge and Experiences
Augmentation hit my body hard. The pramipexole was making the RLS worse. After 3 years of taking 1mg once a day I stopped, cold turkey. I do not recommend the sudden stop! For three nights it was hellish. Bizarre behavior, intense symptoms and unrelenting misery were my companions on those three nights

New here, cabg’ed
I’m new here. Cabg x 5 about 7 weeks ago. Dropped the codeine after about 2 weeks (weird dreams!) and slowly reading paracetamol. Following the advice, slowing increasing duration, not intensity of walking and only real problem is drain holes (2 of 3) not healing properly and starting a steroid cream

Vitamin D3
Hi, I am trying to find a good D3 plus K2 to take but I cannot take the Better for You one as this has citric acid and I have to avoid that. I was looking at Purolabs and wonder if anyone has had any experience with their vitamins? I also struggle with big tablets! Thanks in advance.

Tight foreskin
I have always noticed my foreskin to be quite tight, I did abit of research lately which led me to this page to help solve it, I’ve seen that trying to pull it back whilst in the bath/shower or using steroid cream can help after a few weeks. Is it just a case of trying to get it used to being stretched

Newly Diagnosed
Hi I’ve just been told I have severe Osteoporosis after having a Dexa Scan. I’ve started Adcal D3 and I’ve been given Alendronic Acid 70mg. It’s my left hip and lumber spine which is affected, -3•5 in hip, -3•1 in lumber spine. I’ve been told I have a fracture risk of 36%. I’m naturally concerned about
