Sudden hair loss - thyroidectomy 38 years ago
I have suddenly started losing my hair, I have a bald patch on the top of my head which I am quite alarmed about. The Gp is arranging some blood tests but thinks it could be due to my thyroid. I had a thyroidectomy 38 years ago, been on levothyroxine 100mcg for years and have been fine. So I am shocked

PBC/AIH1 Positive
Just as I was wrapping my head around my April PBC diagnosis and taking Urso (which does seem to me improving my liver enzyme levels) a liver biopsy also confirmed that I am also positive for autoimmune hepatitis type 1 (AIH1). I know PBC and other autoimmune conditions tend to run in packs. Does anyone

Anyone Used Pascoe B12 Depot (Hydroxy)
Hi Guys and thank you all for all your help in my previous posts.... Has any one used Pascoe B12 Depot and did they notice any difference to Panpharma (Rotexmedica) Depot Hydroxy? I know it is stronger and there is only one different ingredient to Panpharma being Sodium Chloride instead of Sodium

help with drinking 2 to 3 litres of water a day.
post allogeneic stem cell transplant I have been told I need to drink at least 2litres of water a day. With the medication I'm on I cannot drink plain water and have to flavour it and have with plenty of ice. Butstill find it difficult. Any advice on managing to get my full amount of water would be

My mother's good news!
Hello, ladies, I wanted to share some good news with you because this community has always given me and my family so much hope. Today we got my mother's PET results and they showed stable disease.

Can Blindness be caused by using Aldara (Imiquimod) with GCA?
My dermatologist is once again pushing Aldara (in the US, it's called Imiquimod) to help control my pre-cancerous skin "spots" (Actinic Keratosis) on my head. I have GCA, and I'm concerned because this med induces your immune system to go into overdrive against the spots, killing them, which leads to

imuran
I have been on Imuran 50mg for over 3 years and will be on it another 2 for autoimmune hepatitis. I also have PBC and take ursodiol for that. Imuran has lowered my liver levels and has kept them stable for me. It suppresses your immune system but it’s manageable. My dr is hoping that after being on it

Update(My Experience): Day 21 after Circumcision Fully Healed: Fast Healing: Removed my Stitches: Foreign Body
Please, don't do as I did, please visit your GP for advice. The reason I could tell there was something wrong with my cut is that all my wounds heal so so fast. Straight into it, I am doing so well actually. Amazingly well. But this is how I managed to accelerate my healing. What happened was that

Oestriol and Lupus
I am 71 and have had recurrent UTIs. My GP has prescribed me Oestriol cream and told to use it daily, on my genitals, to help with the post-menopausal atrophy of the general area but particularly around my urethral opening. With oestriol I do not need progesterone. The leaflet in the box

Adalimumab and psoriasis side effect?
Hi I've been on adalimumab for about ten weeks and two days after my last injection I came out in a rash on my feet and calves. I've had it swabbed and it's negative for virus and bacteria and the consensus seems to be that it might be psoriasis,which I've never had before but which can apparently

GREAT video on PMB! If you are thinking about buying any photobiomodulation red light therapy device... this is a MUST WATCH

Insomnia with heart failure
Hi. I'm on heart failure medications. I'm keeping well and still enjoying long walks with the dog. A number of side effects from the meds but suffer lots of nights where I wake after a few hours and can't get back to sleep. I usually take half a 25g sleep aid which help. But the pharmacist got quite

Rosuvastatin Issue
I know many of us use this statin. My doc just switch us to lipitor.

Liver Biopsy and AI
Hello everyone! My initial diagnosis is F3-F4 alcohol-related fibrosis (but they were leaning more towards F4 cirrhosis with 17.8 kPa reading). My antibody markers were continuously high in the past 1.5 years. My doctor suggests liver biopsy to determine if this can be related to AIH at the same time
