Weight gain
Has anyone gained a lot of weight with hypothyroidism? I have gained about 25lbs and don't want to leave my house. I am basically a recluse. I can't go to town, or work, I just about manage to make it to the store, but struggle because I have no transport and exercise is a non starter. I am always out

I have

My Back prproblems starstarted in the Military
My back problems began while on active duty in the Coast Guard. They diagnosed me with degenerative disc disease and osteoporosis. In May of 2019 I had a Lamondectomy, and in 2020 I had a discectomy. In November, 2023 I had a tubular decompressioin. This comming Fall I will be having a spinal fusion.

Post spinal fusion surgery
2 weeks tomorrow after surgery to fuse 7 vertebrae after Prostate Cancer spread to my T 10. Radiation caused a compression fracture and weakness in nearby vertebrae. Just wondering if anyone else has had this done. Pain medication Palexia and Oxyndone have hardly impacted. Spinal surgeon says pain should

Recent diagnosis - Low Tension Glaucoma.
Field
vision
test showed
loss
of
vision
in affected eye. Pressures 16/17 in both eyes. Corneas are apparently very thin. Referred to GP. Waiting time to see an NHS consultant is 8 to 12 months. Have decided to pay for a private consultation to confirm diagnosis and to plan a route forward.

medConfidential Bulletin , 8th December 2023
Another bulletin that should be required reading for anyone concerned about who has access to any of their health data held by the NHS in England. I'm not sure if any of this is relevant to Scotland, Wales, or Northern Ireland. It talks about, among other things, the National Data Opt-Out. I opted out

GCA Flare~~ status and explanationsđź’ž
It just seems hazy, and I do notice the
loss
of peripheral
vision
, too....but it's not a big deal. My doctor felt that the neuro-ophthalmologist had done exactly the right thing by immediately ordering the pulse therapy.

Straw therapy for low speech volume
Hubby has low volume speech. He is currently doing work with the Parkinson’s Voice Project (PVP) with some success — IF he keeps up with it. We recently saw exercises for help projecting with volume using a straw (you blow into a glass of water), supposedly this helps with increasing the muscle tone

That was a busy week!
last week I did run Kent 5k I was meant to have done the 10k but due to my ongoing injury problem did the 5k instead! Since the dark nights have descended I have been struggling with my fear of falling and causing more damage to my shoulder! I broke my shoulder in January and it has been classified
