Limited Scleroderma, Autoimmune issues, thymoma, metal implants in joints
I'm wondering if anyone has limited scleroderma and autoimmune issues, AND have had to have metal implants in any joint due to failed fractures? In May 2022 I stupidly tripped over my dog, fell heavily flat on my front onto a concrete floor, fractured my left kneecap and left wrist (radius). Both fractures

Update and Feeling Kicked…..
Thank you to everyone who helped me with my last post on this board regarding DNR. I’m relieved to say that my father was released and is possibly back on track to regain some of the weight lost at hospital. Still waiting to hear if it’s lymphoma. As for me I am feeling kinda kicked down this week.

Security Scanners
I have had two unicompartmental knee replacements. Am I likely to set off security alerts going through scanners etc? If so, should I tell security first before I go through the arch?

Your thyroid and iron deficiency stories, please
My ferritin is now 7. (Safe levels being 13 and above). Haemoglobin is 114 (Safe levels used to be 120 and above but now all of a sudden are 115. Surely just a coincidence that it’s women who experience lower iron levels, as a rule. Surely). MCHC, transferrin, serum iron etc all out of whack, too

propranolol
hello. I had an awful anxiety attack that started on Sunday. I used to have them in the past as well as depression but taking sertraline 3 times a week helped keep things under control. I’m menopausal and on HRT and I think it’s related. I spoke to a GP who prescribed propranolol for the physical symptoms

Red nose after Raynaud’s diagnosis
Morning all 😀 I was diagnosed with Raynaud’s last winter and have since been experiencing horrible nose and cheek issues. m when I get hot or if I eat hot food my nose and cheeks pulsate and go bright red. It then goes almost back to normal as I cool down!! this has left me with a redder than normal

Femseven conti patches
Hi,Has anyone been prescribed femseven conti patches? I've been prescribed these by the nurse at the GP surgery as an alternative to evorel as they were making me bleed and my anxiety was really bad. I've read on the packet they could increase fibroids so not sure I should be taking them. I'm on 3

Pet scan was clear for vasculitis
Pet scan did not show vasculitis but have to have a MRA of aorta but dr not too concerned I think. No panic for this scan which is next week. Also mri of brain due to heaviness. Could be connected to old ear problems but feels we should check. Also on letter blood test results Fe 4, ferritin 62,

Higher pulse than average
I’m quite fit but am feeling as though I’ve run a marathon - heart rate up and air hungry . I have UAT and take Armour Thyroid. I’ve reduced the dose from 1 grain am and pm to 1 am and 1/2 pm but it hasn’t made any difference. This has been happening for about two weeks now. I also take HRT, vitamin

Cirrhosis diagnosis
I have recently been diagnosed with cirrhosis following abnormal blood test and fibroscan. I am a non drinker, with a BMI 22.3. The specialist says I am one of the 5-7% of people with a fatty liver but not over weight and probably hereditary. This has come as a shock. I only had a blood test because

Buying my own T3
Hello all, I've been on Levothyroxine for a long time but since a hysterectomy and menopause I've needed to increase the dose but still feel like I'm struggling. I'm on HRT and working hard to balance ALL hormones, I currently get my Progesterone from abroad because mybuseleas GP doesn't believe I need
