Prostap and Tibelone
Hi everyone,I'm new here and looking to see if anyone else is having the same problem. I'm currently on Prostap injection and Hrt Tibolone. I'm extremely low in mood, I have no energy, I'm really tired where I could fall asleep at my desk at work but struggling to sleep at night. I just really can't

any advice please?
hello, I had PMR/GCA diagnosed January 2020 . A minor relapse and then a major one in August 2021 where I had to up my dose to 40mg Prednisolone. After that I have been tapering, cautiously until December 2022 where I was on 5.5mg. At Xmas I was hit by flu with high temperature and cough. My legs wouldn

Menopause
I am 52 and going through the menopause and finding it difficult. I have been told by professionals that I can not have HRT as I have a family history of breast cancer and blood clots. I am just trying to deal with my symptoms with no help. I hate the mood swings, I suffer with depression and anxiety

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

4th Open Heart Surgery - Valve Replacement
Hi! My dad is having to have his 4th OHS in the coming weeks and I'm feeling a bit scared and anxious about it all. His last one was only in July 2021 - they are replacing the same valve that was replaced last time plus another one. Does anyone have any experience of having 4 open heart surgeries? Many

hip replacement
How did you make the decision to have a replacement? I keep going between thinking that I need to have it as soon as possible and then I think no I will try everything else first. I can not walk more than 30 minutes without feeling pain (on a good day). I am on daily medication to help with the pain

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

ossible Relapse
I feel I may have PMR again after two years off pred. However CRP and ESR within normal limits. Have had a tkr 7 weeks ago and saw my othopaedic consultant few days ago who said he would ask GP to give a short dose of steroids (he thought symptoms maybe from using crutches) Has anyone had short dose

time to commit to something
I’ve been popping in & out of this forum for ages but have never got involved. I am on the waiting list for a revision hip replacement & my right hip is now giving me a lot of bother as well. I feel that losing weight would help a lot but I have tried so many plans & after a short time I give up. I

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

Bone-on-bone knee pain and RLS?
I don't want to limit this question for Joolsg because I welcome advice and experience from others, as well. But, Joolsg, I saw a post you replied to about 3 months ago in which you said, arthritic knees will definitely trigger RLS. I have had osteoarthritis in both knees for years and bone-on-bone

worried about high levels
Good morning everyone. It has been a while, and I had asked for blood tests before I went and had some private B12 injections, as my own Doctor had stopped them. My B12 was also low due to malabsorbtion, and PA results were borderline. I am symptomatic and feeling really bad lately. Its over a year
