Slimpod feedback, please
I am really interested in whether hypothyroid people with a weight problem have had any experience of Slimpod. I don't snack or eat junk (except occasionally) and wonder if Slimpod can help someone with an underachieve thyroid whose choices about food are already fairly healthy. Have you tried it

Supporting evidence for PIP
I’m ploughing through the online form and it keeps saying about supporting evidence. I was diagnosed in 2021 by my then GP in the midlands over the Covid period - so not many doctor visits. Not much prescribed, using paracetamol and/or ibuprofen as and when necessary. Basically have been self-managing

Hello, I was dx with PD in 2019. I’ve progressed to stage 3 and have tried a lot of synthetic meds. I wont take tgem if the side effects worsen my current symptoms. That excludes most. I have read a million articles on new and upcoming tests and trials. I’m tired of chasing the rabbit. Although I cant

red light therapy
Hi I have been looking into the benefits of red light therapy for muscle issues and wondered if anyone had tried this - I can’t see any contradictions with hydroxi and will be mainly using this on my neck , upper back and thyroid areas - I know this won’t help ET as such but using for other issues.

Any successful treatment with red light therapy for peripheral neuropathy?
Hello, I am wondering whether or not it’s worth pursuing some sort of photobiomodulation (red light) therapy as a way of addressing idiopathic peripheral neuropathy which, in my case, means numb feet with burning soles at night. Has anybody had any success with these types of intervention, either through

enlarged sore breasts
hi - rather embarrassing but here goes! Approximately 2 weeks ago I had to increase levothyroxine to 100 mcgs- breasts are now enlarged and sore. I can’t be pregnant- I happen to of had routine breast scan just prior to meds increase and no abnormalities detected. Has anyone else experienced this

Incontinence - A major problem
I have had Parkinson's since the spring of 2014. I had my first major fall (any fall that requires a trip to the ER) in Oct. of 2018, and I have gone downhill since that night. The Parkinson's symptom that's keeping me from leading a normal life is a freezing gait, although I do have overall tightness

A question for anyone who built a red light therapy helmet/hat.
Hello. I’m interested in building a red light therapy hat. But I’m having trouble finding a source for 670nm and 810nm led strips. I was wondering if anyone who has built a hat using these specific wavelengths could share a link to where they purchased them. Thank you.

Weight gain
Has anyone gained a lot of weight with hypothyroidism? I have gained about 25lbs and don't want to leave my house. I am basically a recluse. I can't go to town, or work, I just about manage to make it to the store, but struggle because I have no transport and exercise is a non starter. I am always out

A Miracle
Hi Everyone, It's been a while and I pray that everyone is one step closer to healing. I'm back to share good news and hopefully offer a glimpse of hope to others. My husband has recovered from PMR! This community was so helpful, encouraging and supportive that I had to come back and share. Moreover

Time to adjust my course, any suggestions?
Psa is on a steady increase again. I was taking extandi for a year up until 11 /23 over that yr my Psa had dropped from 29, 11/22 to 1.4 ,11/23. I was having significant SEs, brain fog mainly so I decided to switch to nubeqa (daralutimide) even tho there was a steady drop in PSA on extandi. Nubeqa

Liver Cancer
I was diagnosed with liver cancer by my consultant yesterday (Friday 31st May 2024). They are going to take a liver biopsy in a couple of weeks as I am going on holiday next Monday. Then once this is done I will be having radiography. I am going to be positive and hopefully fight this all the way
