Meningioma advice
Hi all, I started getting constant headaches about three years ago. After being ignored by my doctors, I paid for a private neurologist, and he did an MRI, told me nothing was found and suggested it was menopause. I've had three years of headaches, dizziness, vision issues and utter fatigue and losing

A few Things ….
1. I had an ACTH test yesterday as my recent cortisol level was low. I was told my TSH would be tested but not T4 and T3. However when I got there, it was a full thyroid profile being done. I had breakfast in the morning but no caffeine. I had a small bowl of plain porridge and nothing else, except water

anybody had these tests before?
Hi Everyone Long time, no post so I apologise. Since I last spoke to anyone I have been diagnosed with Osteoperosis, so fighting a number of demons. My Rheumatologist has been concerned about my ever decreasing levels of calcium despite eating calcium rich food and doubling my prescribed Calcium supplements

HRT and fatigue
I'm quite interested to see if this resonates with anyone else .Was diagnosed with RA 2018, and been on methotrexate and Hydroxychloroquine ever since. Once the dose settled it's controlled the RA swelling. But the fatigue has been awful and constant. I assumed a result of the RA and side effects of

sertraline
Hi all, I’m been on Hrt about 18 months now but my anxiety is still extremely high, as it’s relentles. I’ve tried anti depressants flouxetine and Mirtazipine that haven’t really helped. I’m thinking of trying sertraline next, and was wondering if it has helped anyone with menapausal anxiety please.

Could heart pain be related to peri menopause?
Hi everyone. I’ve just recently stopped taking HRT patches as I felt nearly suicidal for two weeks every month. I have been having pains like a stitch in my heart on and off for weeks. Was wondering if any of you have ever experienced anything like this and if it was related to peri menopause

stitch pains in heart
I’ve recently been told I have Left Ventricle Non Compaction and I also have the dilated cardiomyopathy gene but no symptoms of that yet. My EF is 52 and consultant not too concerned for now. The strange thing is, almost within a day or two or learning this new information, I’ve been having small

Low Testosterone Linked With Mortality Risk in Aging Men - by Jeff Minerd , Contributing Writer, MedPage Today May 13, 2024
No way to know if this is applicable to those on ADT, but it would seem to be relevant for consideration. The highlighted portion is a useful guide on male sex hormone targets for those testing them. These results might also add support for Morgentaler's [i]"Saturation Model"[/i] for testosterone. Full

Malabsorption of drugs?
I am still awaiting a diagnosis of PA, but do suspect I do have it. My stomach pH level was recently 8.1, so very low stomach acid, which is why I am not absorbing/processing B12, iron and folate. I also did a test which showed I have very low diamine oxidase in my gut so have histamine intolerance.

T3 only and feeling a bit desperate
I have been taking T3 only for a handful of years now and for a couple of them on a LCHF diet I was happy enough. I lost weight, and felt good. In October 2020 I restarted HRT (I still had/have) hot flushes, but within 2 months I had started to gain weight and on balance I thought that I would rather

Flare treatment
Have had a ‘good’ run from 30 to 7mg but been feeling rotten of late. It’s like my steroids, HRT snd Levothyroxine have all suddenly stopped working and my mood has plummeted. Suspect it might be adrenal glands but now have a PMR flare to deal with. I had a dose of cold couple of months ago and some

Latest GP appointment
I had a facevto face appointment with a GP on Monday. This was a new GP so thought I stood a chance if levo increase . No the case, I asked nicely, I quoted a few things, I asked for a trail on a increase, she wouldn't budge, she quoted that to have to much levo could make me unwell and they have to

Advice Needed Please
Hi. I’m hoping for some advice. I have an appointment next week to discuss starting on Prostap or Zolodex. I’ve been told I’d have to start HRT alongside it and I’m wondering what experiences people have have with this treatment. I can’t seem to make up my mind and the stress of worrying about it all

Breast lump
I am post menopause and have been taking HRT for 20years due to severe hot flushes! 6 months ago I felt a pea sized lump behind my nipple didn't worry too much then the lump started to get bigger. Went to GP who fast tracked me to Breast clinic with suspected Cancerous lump. I had my appointment yesterday

4 years post menopause, menstruation started again, any ideas why?
I’m asking for someone not on this forum. She is 52, went through menopause 4 years ago relatively easily. Now out of the blue it seems menstruation has started again, the full Monty, sore bosoms, cramps and bleeding. The bleeding she says is worse than even post natal, very heavy and she’s left feeling
