Does lupus cause very dry skin?
hello - I have APS and pernicious anaemia. I have a positive ANA and St T's say I have lupus like symptoms associated with the APS but full blown lupus is not evident at the moment. I start Plaquenil in the new year (my specialist recommends introducing new drugs one at a time as I am on warfarin) I

Shedding light on the sunshine vitamin - why is vitamin D linked to so many health issues and how much of it do we actually need?
Sadly the article doesn't say how much Vitamin D we need, but given many of us report improvements in our well being after finding we need Vitamin D3 supplements to boost our Vitamin D into the normal range, I though this article would be of interest. There is obviously a great deal more we need to

Am I optimising Levothyroxine by it taking at the right time?
Hi I'm on 100mcg Levo for Hashimoto's. I have been taking it for about 12 years now at varying amounts and currently have a lot of aches, pains and stiffness and fatigue. But I also have RA and chronic autoimmune Uticaria and my inflammation levels are always high at present. I am therefore on a lot

Vitamin D or is it Vitamin D3, or are they both the same please ?
Months ago, after being newly diagnosed with Hypothyroidism and prescribed Levothyroxine, I'd been reading up on Stop The Thyroid Madness website that Vitamin D3 might help my (what I thought might be,) Fibromyalgia type pains. (I hadn't heard of Thyroid UK back then.) At my next Doctor's appointment

Making headway...vitamin B12
I managed to speak with my GP last week regarding my low level of vitamin B12 in the light of all my auto immune problems but in particular my under-active thyroid. My level was about 280 and the lab range was 225-1100 or there about. My GP began by flatly saying my levels were 'within normal range

I can't cope with this much more!
Evening all, I hope everyone is ok. I have just been discharged from hospital, and I'm struggling again (been to acute medicine clinic today for nebs). I've lost count of the number of admissions now but I have just had enough, of bouncing in and out of hospital, of not being able to work...not being

Is Calceos (calcium and Vit D3) supplement the right one for thyroid problems?
I have half an underactive thyroid following removal of the right side for cancer treatment. They also removed a parathyroid gland that was imbedded in the isthmus tissue during and blood tests done in July (5 months post op) have found that I'm Vit D3 deficient and need calcium too. I've finally been

Vitamin b12 deficiency or pernicious anaemia? How to know the difference?
Recently you good people explained how my vitamin B 12 was way too low...it was somewhere in the 280 region (reference 225 - 1100). I am seeing my GP in the week and I need to be knowledgeable. As well as having coeliac disease and an underactive thyroid, I have been diagnosed with UCTD: recently I

Vitamin D and Green Tea
Hi all - first post from me. My husband has CLL and I have read lots about the benefits of taking Vitamin D3. I want to get him on this. Any advice as to what strength? Have found a good make by Healthy Origins which is 10,000 IU. Also, any recommendations for green tea supplements?

Very unwise?
Please can you help. I was diagnosed with an under-active thyroid 12 years ago age 40. Frustratingly, have other symptoms to manage too (I have coeliac and I am under investigation for a life time lupus / sjogrens type) autoimmune condition. I feel really cross with myself that I have blithely taken

Hi Peeps, I was finally diagnosed Hypothyroid last January. I had been arguing that I had all the symptoms for a good few years!
Nothing was done as my bloods were 'normal' Tired, depressed, losing my hair/eyebrows/lashes, overweight but can't lose it even if I starve myself! However after having an accident at work last October resulting in a badly broken arm, I was sent for a Dexa scan due to my age and being past menopause

Info please: wondering about my "tissue bleeds"
I guess there are other names for these haemorrhages deep under the skin. Mine aren't like what's called "blood blisters" cause mine are deeper in my soft tissues. I get these mainly in my hands & feet. Maybe 1 every 3 weeks or so, but lately more like 1 per week. They come on without any "friction

Tarceva/Erlotinib side effect
Good morning all My husband, Brian, is not coping well with the rash, finds it very irritating and is having problems sleeping. He is using the steroid cream but that does not seem to help. I shall be contacting his LCNS tomorrow but wondered whether any one here can help. Thank you.

Insect bites continued
Hairbear posted a few weeks ago regarding insect bites and I know some others have had problems during the summer. I came across additional information and post it below. At the bottom are quite a few reference papers listed on this subject for anyone's further research. ..........................
