Oxycodon
Hi allI have not been on the forum for some time. I have primary RLS . I am 60 now but have suffered since I was a child. Went on Ropinerol 0.5 mg in my late 30s up until then no treatment as I didn't know how to articulate the sensations and only realised it was a condition that others suffered with

Adcal-D3
Just a quick query. Has anyone else suffered from nausea when taking Adcal-D3 chewable? I was wondering if the tablets contain lactose, as I'm allergic to it. Since having been diagnosed with a fractured L2 and osteoporosis, the RA team and my GP both recommend them. I was taking Solgar Calcium Citrate

Help with timing, drinks etc for MonitorMyHealth Test
I was wondering what the best practice is for taking blood samples at home for a Monitor My Health test. I usually try to sleep 10pm-6am, and I have breakfast around 7.20am. However sometimes I don't sleep that long, for example today I slept from 10pm to 4am and couldn't sleep any more. I usually

Stiff as a Post!
I rather like that play on words! I know that stiffness is a part of PMR but I have experienced stiffenss since my fifties. I remember going to a wholistic style GP who told me to take huge doses of Vitamin D and zinc tablets which I don't remember making a lot of difference. My brother, who I haven't

lowered my dexa scores!
It is with great pleasure that I can tell this story! I had my 3yr dexa scan 2 weeks ago. Dreaded results as I’ve not taken drugs as when I initially tried them I was unwell (to say the least!) I improved my diet … cut way down on sugar, lowered carb intake, upped green veg, red meat, milk, yoghurt

vitamin d advice please
I’m sub clinic apparently. I plan to start V D but my first look at what’s available is confusing. Is there more than one V D as I see some are called D3? Is the RDA amount available or do you just take lots to make it up. I’m 61 female with AI rheumatoid conditions and veggie.

Diet and egg quality
Hey, I've did one round of IVF - got 20 eggs and only 3 made it to day 5. I was told many of the eggs were immature and I know I really need to make changes to my diet to have any chance of success next round. I live on ALOT of sugar and only recently read about how bad this can be, can anyone give me

Confusing results and Nodule
This is the response from Endocrinologist'. I don’t feel great. I have low energy levels compared to normal, I’m so tired , always cold or temperature sensitive. Reading this response, it doesn’t sound that they plan to offer to medicate me. But the thought of feeling like this indefinitely fills

Need help understanding this…
I made a post 16 days ago asking for your thought's on my labs. One of my labs 16 days ago came back as being Vitamin D deficient (Vitamin D: 27.4 ng/ml (Low) ….(30-100) So I started supplementing with D3 and K2 (vitamin D 2000IU and activated K2 75mcg) daily for the past 13 days (missed 3 days).

Slippery Elm & Lansoprazol
I'm asking advice for my son. It's about timings etc re slippery elm, supplements and slippery elm. He's 40 and on Lazoprasole for almost 12 years for slight hiatus hernia. Each time he's not taken it, due to prescription mix up, he gets bad acid symptoms. At the moment he's having an acid flare up.

Sunlight relief
For the last 4 days I have had no PMR pain or stiffness. Why? I am on St Kitts, where there is abundant sunshine. I'm probably making tons of vitamin D. Although since my PMR commenced in Dec 2022 I have taken a vitamin D pill daily, I can't trace any relief to that. As for "perfect" days, I've had
