Steroid withdrawal
My 19 year old son is going through steroid withdrawal after years of using 2% steroid cream & other lotions prescribed by his well meaning doctor. My son is refusing to even use Aveeno cream now, as he is convinced his body needs a total break form using anything. His skin is raw & weeping & his bed

Since reducing my calories my excema has flared up. Has this happened to anyone else? I'm sticking to roughly 1400 calories per day and that has been the only change in my lifestyle.

Vitamin D3??
After reading an article about how taking Vitamin D3 had irradicated a woman's IBS -D symptoms, I was wondering if anyone else has tried this and it has helped them? I also have an underactive thyroid which can also make you Vit D deficient. I am getting so desperate that I am willing to try anything

Discoid Eczema/Nummular Dermatitis Advice
Hi everyone, I'm basically after management advice here, although I'll explain my condition first. I've suffered from a skin condition for a few years now. After the standard back and forth on the GP pathway, I eventually had a photo consultation with a Dermatologist who diagnosed it as being Discoid

Spots and aches
Okay so I'm not sure if this is related to my thyroid but is my main reason for looking into my condition more recently after being managed on just levothyroxine for years. But in the last year I've had these spots appear on my right breast, at first there were only three that wouldn't heal but over

Vitamin D deficiency
My specialist tested my Vitamin D2 and D3 levels recently and has contacted me to inform me that my D2 level is <10 and Vitamin D3 level is 24ng. I understand that both of these figures are very low, from what he said and he is prescribing me Pro-D3 capsules of 20,000 units three days a week, for four

Fit Bit
Since I started taking the magnesium marine tablets I have been sleeping so much better, I now have a fit bit that you were as a watch and when you go to bed you tell it you are going to sleep, when you wake up you tell it you are awake and it tells you how long you have slept for and how restless it

Parathyroid Help?
I have recently had my blood works done and got the following results Vitamin D3 - 21.4nmol/L Serum Calcium - 2.60mmol/L Calcium adjusted level - 2.63mmol/L TSH and Free T4 Levels came back within range Is it normal to have high calcium and low D3? Could this mean I need to have my Parathyroid checked
