They got better in 2022 when I started combination therapy. However, I do not think I have reached my optimum (whatever that is) because these symptoms

Happy Ablation Anniversary to me!
Cannot quite believe that it is 1 year on from my ablation at the Golden Jubilee in Glasgow. I had paroxysmal AF for about 5 years. Like many that started with isolated instances months apart that then increased in frequency until it was almost everyday. Flecanide would stop it but the duration became

There is more B12 in the liver than in other organs Guessing a weight/volume measurement. Someone who wishes they had what it takes to be a scientist came up with that the liver is a magical storage bank of B12. Divided the amount of B12 by the minimum daily requirement and came up with a foolish mathematical

Does The Thyroid Affect Potassium Levels?
Hi! A bit of a random question but I’ve recently had some bloods taken by my GP surgery and my potassium levels have come back a little low (3.2 range 3.5-5.3) My TSH is 3.06 (range 0.27-4.20), which I think is a little too high although in range, so it got me thinking if there is a link at all between

Zymot and PICSI
Hello, I believe this has been asked before but there hasn't been much response so hopefully maybe more might have incite or tips as time as gone by? Do you have experiences using Zymot or PICSI? Or even one thought, using both? Putting the sperm through the Zymot maze and then putting the sperm in

Iron supplementation
Hi I have Hashimoto's - as yet untreated due to fluctuating TSH levels. My symptoms are numerous, and due to low levels of B12 and vitamin D, I am supplementing those. I am gluten Soy and Dairy free. My ferritin has been historically low and the GPs have frequently me prescribed Ferrous Fumarate.

Depression and successful treatment
I'd like to share something that others may be able to relate to. After suffering for many years with different ailments in addition to, or probably related to PA, one thing that many may suffer from is depression. I was given all the usual psychotropic medications with little positive effect. Then

Riboflavin (b2) supplementation is a no-brainer for Parkinsons
