Sore mouth!
Newbie here. Quick question! My mouth is sore, not truly bad, but noticeable. I had oral thrush once, side effect of antibiotics, and am wondering if it’s starting again, or is this a known side effect of Pred, or alendronic acid or other marvellous tablets? I don’t want it to get bad...it was like a

I would appreciate some advice.
Good morning everyone. I hope you had a good Christmas. Ironically the thing I had been fearing happened on Christmas Day. I began to bring up blood about an egg cup full. I have just completed a course of clarithromycin ,so thought that would deal with any infection. Previously I have had small amounts

Prostap long term use
I’ve been on this for three years on and off. I have the three monthly injections. I now have a lot of bone issues. When you take pro stap it stops the oestrogen and it’s the stopping of the oestrogen that causes a lot of the bone issues not the actual injection itself. Although the injection stops oestrogen

Ways to increase Omega 3 , 6 And vitamin K
I have been on a journey to cure fibroid, excruciating menstrual cramps, too much menstrual blood loss and fatigue for 2 years. I suspect the root cause is hormonal. Anyway I did some research and lack of omega 3, 6 and vitamin k can cause the issues I'm dealing with. Does anyone have similar issues

PMR, prednisone and daily stomach pain, plus weekly pain Alendronic acid
Wanted to ask: 1) who else suffers from stomach pains after taking their daily prednisolone? I take 12mg/day+ omeprazole for tummy but still get stomach pains (doubled omeprazol dose recently too) 2) Same question for alendronic acid.... Always gives me really bad stomach pain. Is that a normal experience
