Eye bleed and blurred vision
Hello everyone, I am having such a hard time these past months. i was seeing floaters and distorted shapes out of the side of my eyes. I was sent to an Opthamologist (as the Optha-Neurologist I had before told me that GCA isn't a neurological disease and referred me to this Opthamologist). Awhile

Don’t want to be alive, can’t be dead.
Note: I am not suicidal. The only thing heavier than my depression is the responsibility as the only support system for my children. I. Will. Not. Leave. Them. No. Matter. How. Bad. It. Gets. Yes, I am aware that this is Suicidal Ideation. And yes, the program that I am waitlisted for is aware of

Adizem Slow Release and Flecainide
Does anyone take these 2 drugs for blood pressure and Afib? I was on one 50mg Flecainide at night but due to increased episodes my dose has been increased by my Consultant to 50g morning and night with a 100mg pip. He also prescribed me 120mg Adizem slow release which I have been taking in the morning

Review of neck fan
I was going to wait a few more days and keep using this, but I wanted to get my review out there for Xvettech and the others who are curious. The ultimate test for me won’t occur until Wednesday, so I’ve only been using this around the house. I have very mixed feelings about it. I do think that if

Tips for preparing talk therapy. Bottom up approach.
This is not all the list. But for those who are getting better or using talk therapy feel free to add yours in. Unfortunately, I have not done a lot of personal research on Children, so if there is a parent who is using talk therapy focused on children and you find it is helpful, it would be

OCD chronic exhaustion ?
Hi folks, new here… My daughter who is 20yrs has OCD (harm/pure) she started CBT/ERP/EMDR a few weeks back, I’m hopeful she’s in the right place. The thing I am desperately worried about and can’t seem to find any expert knowledge is that her exhaustion is chronic and I’m worried she might develop ME

Tortuous colon
At my last colonoscopy (at age 60) the doc told me, upon awakening, that I had a "tortuous" colon. This was a surprise to me as I've had 3 or 4 previous colonoscopies in my life and have never been told that before. I have suffered with bloat, discomfort, gas, and other issues throughout my life, though

Hair thinning
This is probably a silly question, however I have had multiple different eye drops over the past 7 years for my Glaucoma, and are currently using Travatan and Combigan. Had anybody noticed any changes in hair thinning or hair loss. I seem to have thinning of my hair and are concerned, if this continues

when to take tablets
I have had my thyroid problem since 1992 and when I was just taking my thyroxine , when to take it was not a problem. Now I have atrial fibrillation and have to take 1/2 tablet of Apocard with a blood thinner 12 hours apart with food. I also have to take a beta blocker with food but not with the Apocard

Eye drops
I've been diagnosed with ocular hypertension in both eyes and using Latanaprost drops at night. No real problems so far other than dry eyes later on in the day. My brother has Latanaprost too and he puts his drops in each eye but at the same time then presses on the tear duct for 2 minutes. The leaflet

hello my Ataxian friends, how are you all doing, ok I hope….. an update on myself. I had cataracts removed from both eyes a couple of years ago, my vision now is amazing, and the colors are beautiful, but the new lenses are long distance only, you don’t get a choice, so I still wear glasses for reading

Collagen Supplements
Hello all...does anyone have any advice or guidance please on whether taking collagen supplements is a good/bad idea alongside thyroid meds? My skin and hair are terribly dry and I was wondering if they might help. But I'm about worried about including them in the regime if there are contraindications
