Hello! New here! Can you take collagen supplements with potassium iodide at 50mg with Hashmotos disease?
I am very curious because I have leaky gut and want to supplement with collagen which I heard helps leaky gut. I heard potassium iodide is good for hashmotos as its like a detox for the thyroid. If you can help that's great thanks guys. Xx

Desperate
Hi,I have suffered from anxiety all my life, I've always been nervous and have little confidence. In 2020, I was diagnosed with CPTSD, and initially had a few sessions of EMDR, and also hypnotise, neither of which worked. I subsequent developed chronic panic attacks, which were more like seizures/ fits

This was not treated for that time so when I saw her I wa feeling pretty terrible after months of lung congestion, breathlessness, fatigue also my heart and RA had been badly affected.

Severe COPD and cataracts.
Hello Everyone, I had my eyes tested recently and the optician told me I had cataracts. He said, ‘you do know you can’t have the operation?’ Which I didn’t. From what I can find out it’s because I can’t lie ‘supine’ or flat on my back and also because of the increased possibility of coughing. I

Reaction to trabeculectomy
I'm 66 and it was decided that as drops were no longer controlling pressure, I needed to have trabeculectomy in both eyes. Had first op last summer but had a toxic reaction resulting in my eye being closed, severe reaction to light as well as constant irritation. 11 months later eye still not fully open

Eye Drop Prescription Bottles don’t last 4 weeks
Hi, just wonder if anyone else has a similar problem. I take Brinzolamide twice a day in one eye and Travapost at bedtime. The Brinzolamide only ever lasts me 3 weeks although prescription says it should last for 4 weeks. Maybe because I am more concerned about getting a good dose each application. I

Pegasys issues
Hi everyone previously I had told you that I was having Sjogrens symptoms while on Pegasys. I stopped it and saw a rheumatologist. She was very dismissive. She told me to just look up my own results on the portal and because she was convinced, without seeing any results that i do not have Sjogrens.

Nail stain
Hi, I’m here again but now asking for any experience with nail stain, a dark one ( Melanonychia ) related with Thyroid issues. I got it in one of my nail and waiting for a NHS specialist doctor appointment now. I know this can be a big problem, but looking on internet some of melanonychia can be related

Inadvertent taper of prednisolone
I inadvertently took 5mg instead of 10mg prenisolone for 2 days( before which everything was fine) and all my inflammation symptoms of my uveitis came back(haziness etc). . Now I'm back on 10mg . Any idea how long it would take for these symptoms to resolve itself?

problems wearing glasses?
Hi. I’ve always worn glasses - very shortsighted so a strong prescription and heavy lenses. For a long time I’ve had to pay for the lightest possible lenses and small frames, because of headaches. But despite that, in the last 2-3 years I get sores on the sides of my nose where the glasses rest. It’s

Adverse reaction to eyedrops
I was prescribed Latanoprost for one eye. After two doses I experienced severe pain in the eye which lasted at least eight hours. I stopped taking the drops and the bad pain subsided. But I still feel mild discomfort in the eye and it feels a bit gritty. At night I feel mild discomfort in the eye and

Discontinuing hydroxychloroquine (or not)
I have fairly mild SLE and have stopped hydroxychloroquine because of some unrelated retinal damage caused by sepsis. I find I am tired all the time, more sun sensitive than ever, and frequently get oral ulcers. I'm not sure whether to risk more eye damage by returning to hydroxychloroquine or to risk

What To Do Next?
Hi Friends, First post here, although I've come back to this forum a few times. I'm at a spot where, even though I know it's untrue, I feel like I'm experiencing anxiety like no one has ever experienced it before (we all know the lonely feeling). I've been dealing with this for about a year an a half

Dry eyes and mouth
Is sea buckthorn oil capsules good for sjogrens syndrome? I had this diagnosis yrs ago and I know there is a correlation between sjogrens and hashimotos which I also have. Tried lots of eye lubricants (Prescriotion and OTC ) and oral sprays over the years but nothing has helped. Think I may have heard

Hashimoto and Thyroid Eye Disease
Hi, I developed symptoms in my left eye about two weeks ago. First thought it was hayfever related, but it's only in my left eye. It started feeling worse (itching, sensation of swollen eye, some swelling in the under eye area) so I went to go see an ophthalmologist. He diagnosed me with Thyroid Eye

ET and healing
Hello. Has anyone experience of slow healing/healing complications following surgery? On both occasions of punch biopsy the wounds have been slow to heal, have become infected requiring antibiotics, similarly with a tooth extraction.
