View 1 RepliesCervical Spondylosis :: Wearing A Soft Collar At Night Is Helpful
Good advice here on the subject of cervical spondylosis, apart from the wearing of a support collar maybe. I have found wearing a soft collar at night very helpful in preventing an attack of neck pain turning into a horrible headache by the time morning comes. And very occasionally, it's useful even in the day for severe flare-ups. But I completely agree that neither collars nor corsets should be worn for prolonged periods. My problem started nearly 30 years ago after a car accident, and I'm able to deal with it by the collar at night, Dihydrocodeine, and occasionally voltarol.
I'm sure it's important to keep as active as possible, but families (and GPs) need to understand that it can be a significantly disabling condition for a minority of us. It has stopped me working, and limits my ability to paint, which I love to do. If diagnosed with it, take all the physio and other help you can get as early as possible, and ensure you are not written off by the medics - badger them until you get help that works for you.
Hypertension :: High Carbohydrate Food Causes High Blood Pressure (100/170)?
i am not overweight. Drink a healthy smoothie and whole grain cereal almost every morning yet my BP is still high. (100/170). I was told it may be because of elevated insulin levels caused by the fruit drinks and whole grains (as well as the potato, rice, pasta and breads) that I eat. These are things that easily break down into sugars and cause the issue. (Basically a carb issue). Am I supposed to go on one of those caveman diets? Has anyone tried lowering their carb intake to lower their BP?
View 53 RepliesCardiovascular :: High P Wave And High Diastolic Pressure
Let me start off by saying I am a 20 year old male who was fine before all of this started. I went to the ER for chest pain and palpitations they did the basic test like EKG Xray and Blood work. The ER doctor said i was fine and they let em go home but said i need to see a cardiologist to just make sure everything was fine. So i went to see a cardiologist and the hospital faxed over all of my test results. Based on my ER visits EKG i have an abnormally high P wave everything else on the EKG was fine. They set me up for a Echocardiogram to make sure i did not have an enlarged heart. that test came back normal and they said i did not have a enlarged heart. They set me up for a Stress Echo test I went in for the test got my heart rate up to 200bpm the before and after pictures of my heart looked good and they said everything was working fine and that i was healthy. But during the test i still have those high P waves showing up on the EKG which he said was caused because I am very thin chested and my hear beats close to the surface of my chest so the EKG pick up a higher voltage. Now i have noticed a slight arrhythmia when i take my pulse it tends to beat at 60 bpm then 5 or 6 beats later it jumps to 80 bpm then back to 60 after 5 or so beats. This comes and goes and does not happen all the time and when it does happen it only last up to 30 minutes but during that time i feel fatigued . And finally my blood pressure seems high the systolic pressure is always within normal range its the diastolic that always above normal when i tested my blood pressure with a home blood pressure monitor today it was at 135 over 87 then when i tested it later on in the day it was 127 over 83 i have noticed in multiple test the diastolic seem to float around the mid 80's to 90's the highest i have seen is 133 over 99. The cardiologist does not see to think there is anything wrong with me I have another appointment this week to bring up the high blood pressure and the arrhythmia.

Thyroid :: High FT3, FT4 And TSH
I have done a health check and have gotten my thyroid blood results back:
fT3 25.70 lab range: (1.4 - 4.2 Pg/ml)
fT4 2.87 lab range: (0.80 - 2.20 Pg/ml)
TSH 4.95 lab range: (0.40 - 6.00 mIU/ml)
The T3 value is sky-high, and T4 and TSH are high as well.
The doctor was also stumped and said the results don't match an ECG that was done at the same time. I should be having heart problems, but everything looked fine.
I have done a lot of Googling, but can't find how to interpret these results.
I have taken supplemental iodine 150 mcg for the last 5 months, following the advice of a common popular diet regime. For a while, I have also taken selenium 55 mcg, but stopped this about a month ago.
To me these results look hyperthyroid (T4 and T3) and hypothyroid (high TSH)
Can you make more sense of these results?
A bit more background
I have had a pulsating "tinnitus," - something like a heartbeat in my left ear for the last week, but maybe 4 times a normal heart rate. This was the original reason for wanting to do a checkup, and also including the thyroid. My resting heart rate is about 78, which is about my normal.
I have recently had two strong cups of coffee every day - maybe about 300 mg caffeine total.
Thyroid :: T3 Reverse High
I was recently diagnosed with a T3 Reverse High of 35 ng/dl and the range should be 8-25. This test was done by an Integrated Internal Medicine Dr. that is insisting that most of my symptoms like ringing in the head, twitches in my legs or sometimes throughout my body, brain fog and fatigue could be coming from that number being high. I brought this test to two Endocrinologists that refuse to even look at the number saying that it has noting to do with how I feel and because all my other numbers are fine, I shouldn't worry about that number being high. Currently I am taking Synthroid 112 mcg and the Integrated Dr. suggested I switch to Nature Thyroid 97.5 mg. and on the third day of taking this, I felt like a drug addict without their drug and chickened out and went back to Synthroid again. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do and if there is another medication I can take together with Synthroid to lower the T3 Reverse?

Thyroid :: T3 Of 4.35 High Enough To Cause Symptoms?
TSH and free T4 were in range and free T3 was high at 4.35. I have some symptoms of hyperthyroid. Heat intolerance, anxiety, stress, hypoglycemia but no weight loss. I attribute the no weight loss to eating all the time to keep my blood sugar from getting to low and I have actually gained some weight over the last few years. I started getting these symptoms 5 years ago and they can kind of come and go but the heat intolerance is always there. If I go out in the heat and work it just zaps my energy.
Also my red counts are just a tad high and liver enzymes are always elevated and in the 70-80 ranged. Non drinker and non smoker.
Can Atorvastatin Help Against High Cholesterol?

He told me that I should not be that worried but he told me that he needs to prescribe some medication for me. He gave me atorvastatin drug. I am wondering how this drug can help me against high cholesterol?
View 8 RepliesPregnancy :: High TSH During 1st Trimester
Currently I'm 31 weeks pregnant.
I'm a hypothyroid patient since past 2 years and was on medication Thyroxine 50 mcg with regular GP.
However after I became pregnant and was tested for thyroid result were TSH 19 at week 7(thyroxin 100 mcg) and then TSH 12 at week 11 (thyroxine 125 mcg) adjusted by OB.
Thereafter I started referring to an endocrinologist who put me on thyronorm 150 mcg and my TSH was down to 2 at week 15. Subsequently monthly tests are showing normal range with regular follow-up and dosage adjustments.
From what I have been reading, I see that it should have been normalised in the first trimester itself as it affect's the baby's development. Can you please let me know if there's some tests that can be carried out asap (or new-born screenings) to know if baby has been negatively affected by this ? We want to ensure best possible care for baby once she is born so that it does not cause issues in later life.
