What could be causing tachycardia?
Hi lifesavers, Someone has asked if the tachycardia I have been getting lately may be caused by the 5mcg of Tiromel that I take in the morning. Also I was wondering if I should stop taking the levothyroxine altogether, & either just try to buy some low dose Tiromel or Liothyronine without the T4 in

Transdermal B complex patches - any experience?
Hi I've been looking for B vitamins and have had some suggestions - thank you! I've just come across patches as a way of delivering vits and minerals etc. Same idea as HRT. https://www.patchworksuk.com/product/patch-aid-b12-plus-30-patches/ I know nothing about them. Has anyone used patches and liked

cold feet and hands
Hi there, this might be a stupid question, but since I’ve been taking HRT I’ve been getting really frozen, cold 🥶 feet and hands, and can’t seem to get them to warm up, also when I’m relaxing or in bed a night, my legs won’t relax, I have to keep moving them, and it’s keeping me awake . Anyone else

HRT after Endo and full Hysterectomy
Hi 2 years ago I had a full hysterectomy following having stage 4 endo which was everywhere but mainly 15cm chocolate cyst on my ovary and stuck to my bowel. Resulted in me having bowel surgery at the same time as my hysterectomy with a temporary stoma. I had a 3 weeks stay in hospital with complications

HRT or Thyroxine
I have had many symptoms and put it down to thyroid. I was hesitant to go on HRT because of my cancer history. I paid to go private using the Menopause guru as I wanted comprehensive knowledge and advice - not sure I’m allowed to say name). It was 300 quid well spent. 2 months in feel and I feel so much

Genetic osteoarthritis especially in my knees, was using magnesium spray, but since on Radiotherapy PC sessions, wet weather, suggestions?
Have had genetic osteoarthritis in my knees for decades, my Uncle and Brother have both had knee replacements, but have been advised by friends [and brother] find alternative relief solutions! Maybe it is because of PC radiotherapy treatment or wet weather ALWAYS worst time of the year, but particularly

Open heart surgery
I’m slightly anxious about my upcoming surgery for a mitral valve replacement and repair of atrium valve plus bypass on 16 January. I suffer from COPD. My worries are not actually about the heart side of the op, I have an amazing Clinical Lead who is extremely capable of this op. Amazing and clever

I am 45 yrs old, & believe I am in perimenopause. I had hormonal blood tests done 6 mths ago, which didn’t show this, but was told that didn’t mean I wasn’t peri as hormones go up & down throughout the day….I decided at that time my symptoms weren’t bad enough to try HRT. I spoke to a doc today as
