When does supplementation become toxic or counter-productive?
My Dear Fellow Adventurers, Firstly, thank you for the wealth of information and inspiration - having this commuity makes so much difference! I have a question today, that I have already asked both my doctor and pharmacist (neither were able to help): as I add a new supplement every few months

teeth whitening
good morning everyone I don’t know if anyone on here has had any experience with tooth whitening products, only I’ve seen an advert for a tooth whitening powder which I’m very tempted to try, especially as it’s dentist approved and is peroxide-free. I’m just wondering about the Alendronic Acid I’m

Creaky Joints!
Hello Everyone. Having had trouble going down to 4mg Pred previously, I'm nearing the end of a 6 month taper from 5mg to 4mg. Over the last couple of months I have had a really stiff neck and shoulder pain on one side. I can't decide if this is symptoms coming back, or osteoarthritis, because I definitely

alendronic problems
just trying to check my stomach ache, dizziness at times, reflux and chest pain are all from alendronic acid, as I take statins as well. Feel bloated and lack of appetite. What alternatives are there to increase bone strength? Anyone have these symptoms ?

Taking Alendronic Acid & Dentists won't touch me!
Wanted to have some dental work done & on speaking to a specialist dental surgery, when they heard I was taking Alendronic Acid & Prednisolone they just didn't want to touch me. Have been to visit my regular dentist today who said anything like an extraction or implant he wouldn't do & I would have

amino acids not recognised as essential in humans such as taurine play a role in fibromyalgia,
In this study, researchers measured the level of 20 amino acids (critical components of proteins). They found that overall levels of amino acids were lower in fibromyalgia and that seven amino acids were especially low, including taurine, alanine, tyrosine, valine, methionine, phenylalanine, and threonine.The

9 years and counting with PMR!
Feeling frustrated having been 'diagnosed' with PMR in 2014, initially controlled with prednisolone and then Methotrexate introduced in 2018 after I queried my diagnosis and treatment plan. Initially I was able to reduce preds down to 5 mg daily with 25mgs methotrexate weekly but I am ow struggling again

Will Alendronic Acid affect my RLS?
I have Osteopenia and have been advised to start taking Alendronic Acid to prevent me developing Osteoporosis but am worried it might make my RLS worse. I take Requip and seem to have it under control.

Dexa scan
I thought I would share my experience. I have just been for the above, having questioned the need for me to be taking Alendronic acid. I was told by my GP that I “might as well” take it when started on Steroids. I hated the ritual of having to get up earlier on the day I had to take it and then when

Here's an interesting article on some of the less common medications for RLS. It may be of interest to members who have exhausted all other medication options. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9983500/ Keywords: clonidine, dipyridamole, perampanel, amantadine, ketamine, carbamazepine,

As a WF, age 60 - the last several years have seen some big health scares / diagnoses: FYI: After a torn shoulder rotator cuff injury in Oct 2022 and PT making the pain worse, my orthopedic Dr finally suggested an MRI. Results did not have good news. He then suggested a surgical repair with "bone

Questions about taking Alendronate (Fosomax) and hydroxyeurea
I have Et with Jak 2. I was diagnosed last year when my platelets were around 600. After having a physical and a bone scan my gp just recommended taking alendronate for osteopenia. I walk 3 miles a day and work out. I have concerns about doing this especially with taking hydroxy. I have a friend whose

Hyaluronic acid excess
Hello Given the serious and worrying range of symptoms that are discussed here, I hope it's not annoying to ask about a minor one. I'm wondering if anyone else has a problem with excess hyaluronic acid and if so what facial moisturising creams are appropriate? A post I saw here some months ago helped

RLS amino acids
Hi, I don't have RLS since taking Amino Acids. If I leave them off 2 nights running it comes back as bad as before. I don't know if they do me any harm but it's better than the torture every night. I take Glutamine, Ornithine and Lyseine. If anyone tries this please let me know how it goes. I have

Has anyone else had a problem with loose teeth?
I went to the dentist yesterday who said 4of my teeth are becoming loose, probably due to Alendronic acid and Carbamazepine ( for trigeminal neuralgia ) He said my dental hygiene was excellent. The only available treatment on the NHS is a denture! I am being referred to a periodontal specialist but
