Fish / Omega-3 Supplements
Is there any new/recent study result data for fish/krill/omega-3 supplements and prostate cancer? This is the best I can find related to Dr. Brasky's study and the counter-argument: https://www.cancerdefeated.com/does-fish-oil-cause-cancer/4002/ George

Went on Prednisone today
Hi, everyone! I went on 60 mg of prednisone today and heard taking Vit K was good for me. How much would be safe to take? I've already been taking Vit D 4, 1800mg of calcium w/ magnesium & zinc. I've also been taking Folic Acid and Omega 3 Fish Oil. It's only been 4 hours since I started, but tomorrow

Vitamins
Hi all was diagnosed in January this year have an appointment with consultant which I will get all my results from my scans. Was just wondering I take omega 3 and a dialy multi vitamin and bladderwrack tablets. Does anybody know if I should stop taking any of these. 🤔

Making decisions and trying not be fearful
Last Saturday, I started Humira which for me personally makes me nervous. I have had two injections in my SI joint (left and right side) Over the last two weeks which I was hoping would be helpful. Have not notice any noticeable changes yet as it is still difficult to lay on either side while sleeping

ALA and drug interactions
Just an FYI, ALA (
lipoic
acid
) may interfere with diabetes by lowering blood sugar (if you are diabetic and on meds, monitor your blood sugars and watch for low sugar (hypoglycemia). ALA can also affect the thyroid and make thyroid supplements less effective.

Am I entitled to see an endo specialist even though the laparoscopy showed nothing?
I am feeling really down at the moment because I don't seem to be getting any answers. Sounds petty extreme but I have been in tears about it all. :( I had a laparoscopy with a general gyne last year and no endo was found and I was sent home with no follow up. I just got told I will be fine now because

Hi. I was diagnosed with PMR at the end of January and been taking 20mg of Prednisone. Yesterday started reducing to 15 mg by alternating between 3 and then 4 tablets alternately. Dr recommended taking alendronic acid? Not keen on this idea. Any thoughts?

Folic acid: 400 or 800ug?
Hi all, I am just back from a much-needed break from everything fertility related following my first disastrous attempt at IVF which ended in an early miscarriage. Trying to get ready for a second attempt in May/June, and wondering what I can do to improve the results (first round was 20 follicles, down

Now diagnosed with PA
Since my first post on here I've been diagnosed with Pernicious anaemia as the cause of my very low b12 level (58) I received my 6 loading doses and was told they would be every 3 months thereafter. As I had some of the neurological problems I asked if I could have more of the loading doses, the doctor

Had anyone had a bad reaction to Alendronate_
I was prescribed Alendronate at the beginning of the year when I started taking it once a week. Since then I have had increasing pain mainly in my thigh muscles, groins and shins. It has become so bad that I have difficulty in walkking. I mentioned the possibility of a connection between these pains
