Prednisone and teeth.
Since I was diagnosed with PMR over 30 months ago, I, like everyone else, was given prednisone... During the past four months I have found a deterioration in my well kept and cared for teeth. Two of my front teeth have broken 🥲, and three teeth have started to wiggle. This is quite a shock to

I hate psychiatrists and I dont know what to do
I have an old bottle of
valium
from when a psychiatrist prescribed me that but taking it makes me sick. I'm heartbroken and I feel like my life is over.

Trying so hard to feel normal - overhauling the supplement plan
Hi 🙂, Just meanderings of a tired brain today. Hoping I'm not the only one on this wave-length. Some days with endo are really tough, and some are deceptively "easy" like today, where I end up asking myself why I "can't feel normal". Stage IV endo is where I'm at, waiting for Tuesday for the recommendation

Been dealing with an issue for 14 months and can’t get diagnosed!! Opinions and thoughts needed!
Hi all, thought I’d reach out and share what I assume is a gastro-related issue that I’ve been dealing with for a while (approx 2 years), in hope to get some ideas and direction on how to get this diagnosed and treated within the NHS - because so far, with all the visits to the GP, trips to the hospital

Remedies for Parkinson's constipation
This subject comes up a lot, so I figured it would be useful to post our collective wisdom in one place as a reference. As usual – what works for one may not work for another. So members of our club are invited to also post your remedies in the comments.

I have been prescribed Alendronic

Help with ranges
Hi guys, I have posted a few times and am by no means a novice when it comes to all things thyroid and bloods and vits etc but my question is does anyone have any official guidlines regarding reaching a euthroid state on replacement. In other words is there medical guidance that states top 3rd of range

What's next on tap
Well the 12th cycle of carboplatin and cabataxal is on May 20th, this treatment regime has been successful bringing my Psa down from 243 to 6. Although I have been told 12 cycles are on the far end of what should be taken, so far I have been tolerating it pretty well, aside from burning pain with urination
