Cytomel alternative in UK and medical exemption card
I have a NHS GP prescription for cytomel. It is currently out of stock with overseas suppliers . GP is very unhelpful. Is all T3 medication unlicensed in the UK or just cytomel? What is an alternative that can be prescribed and readily available in the UK. I have been on 12.5mcg per day taken in conjunction

Too Much
Be prepared for a post of nothing but complaining, lol. Here it goes! It all feels like too much. I can't keep up with my life anymore. I feel like I'm on the middle part of a roller coaster and am scared to death but can't get off. I just have to ride it to the end. My daughter is 8 and has autism

Day 2 of hell on earth. Any tips?
This has been the second day in a row in which I am so super emotional it sucks. I’m physically exhausted and sick. I don’t know how to calm myself down. I try a bunch of things but it doesn’t work. Meds, essential oils, music, crosswords, reading, writing, mindfulness, art in every form, therapy, groups

For example, it seems to take me forever to get over difficult events, like a break up. I have an almost obsessive thinking

Benlysta
A few weeks ago I was approved to begin Benlysta therapy. I currently take Azathioprine, Hydroxychloroquine, Losartin (bp) and Tramadol (pain). It seems that my meds are no longer effective, so my Rheumy will start me on Benlysta. Is there anyone currently on Benlysta? If so, does it seem to work for

IBS and Vegan
I have PCOS so I struggle with

and have already cut the sugar, soy and gluten to help with other symptoms. I know peppermint tea works a charm to relieve bloated and gassy tummies but I'd rather find a prevention!

A new avenue to explore
Hey all. I've read some research over my time with PD on gamma and alpha light therapy. The papers didn't seem too positive as regards its efficacy but I have some close friends who have had some very good results with this. One had PD and the other early Alzheimers. Note that the former is correctly
