Still can’t lose weight - on NDT for 3 months
My mother is severely hypo and was untreated while she was pregnant with me. I’ve been hypo literally my whole life, though I was misdiagnosed earlier in life until I figured it out myself 1yr ago after a couple miscarriages and 18 months of creeping weight gain. I take 120mg or 2 grains of Thyroid-S

Having a wobble…why won’t they list me?
Had ablation and
TACE
, initial 1 2cm is now 4 small ones. I had undiagnosed Hep C forr over 30 years and at times have drank at dangerous levels through university, stressful life events and covid etc. so this has not helped. I have cirrhosis.

LISINOPRIL AND AFIB
Hello all, are there any on this forum taking lisinopril for high blood pressure? I just came across this today and it could explain why I and maybe others have more afib episodes than we should; 1. Caution: High blood pressure/heart disease meds and potassium-rich foods like bananas, potatoes and licorice

when will i feel better?
My dad has been declining since heart attack in September. He has just been prescribed Ramipril. How long do you think it will be before he notices some benefits? We would be grateful to know of others’ experiences with ACE inhibitors

A cross in the sand
Does anyone else find this explanation helpful -- ? Imagine yourself sitting on the beach and you draw a cross in the sand like an 'x'. The first stroke represents your dopamine deficiency and the second stroke you draw several times as it represents an overactive adrenal response subsequent to the HABIT

They ruptured my hepatic artery during

treatment. While waiting for this to heal injections for 6 weeks to prevent clotting I’ve developed 3 new tumours.

Still in HF?
Hi all, First post. This is a great forum, very informative and supportive. Diagnosed with hypertension 18 months ago, usual ACE inhibitors took 6 months to lower BP. Then came AF, on Atenolol and Eliquis, but side effects, and GP switched me to Bisoprolol. Symptoms worsened and I ended up hospitalized

treatment for my husband
my husband was diagnosed with MPGN in 1999 at age 22. He has been treated with prednisone, BP meds, ace inhibitors since diagnosis they now think it is C3G. I am looking for treatment options or those also treated with prednisone. Drs have concern about long term side effects of prednisone. So far

#1: The Start
Following the example of Clarebear I've decided to document my thyroid-adrenal journey on here in hopes it'll keep me accountable, and also may serve some after me. After a long, complicated history of no diagnosis, followed by lithium treatment, then prolonged time spent on T4 with no improvement,

Genetic Testing

The problem is since I do not have any other disease, I am classified with primary FSGS. If I had any other certain cause to my kidney disease

TACE

Beta Blockers
An article in yesterday's Sunday Mail stated that Betablockers are not the first choice now for heart problems as research shows they are ineffective; in fact, they haven't been for a while and new patients would not be prescribed them and the preferred drugs are ACE inhibitors. I have been on a betablocker

Vitamin D & tolerating thyroid medication
Hello, Thanks so much for your time in reading my post, I would really appreciate any/all opinions on this. I am currently investigating why, ever since I crashed from 2 years of Keto, I can't tolerate thyroid medication. I have discovered I have extremely low adrenal function and am now treating

DHEA (& Cortisol)
Hello, I received these results today. I would appreciate it so much if someone could give me a steer on the DHEA aspect. I understand cortisol very well and clearly I have some form of adrenal insufficiency. I have 2 questions - 1. Do you think I need hydrocortisone from these results or can I

Help! Palpitations on 1.5 grains NDT
I wrote that I was worried about getting palpitations and lo! I have them. Is this a self fulfilling prophecy or anxiety? I'm very conscious of my heart and am having annoying ectopic beats - these are old foes and I had them for years; they went away when I was put on a maximum dose of ace inhibitors

Statin - Side Effects
Actually I am happy to say I do not have any so you might wonder why I am posting? I only check in here every few days as it is all very repetitive particularly on statins. Yes a minute percentage get side effects yet despite numerous posts on the subject often replied to by stalwarts of the forum people
