- Anyone here on Tacrolimus? My mom just got put on it and I don't know much about it so I'm curious. She was on Cell Cept before this.
- Hey all. I just had some blood work done today because I haven't been feeling the greatest. I've been gaining weight no matter what I do and I've been really tired. My results were a TSH of 1.64 with a range of 0.34-4.82 and my free T4 was 0.8 with...
- Hi all. I was diagnosed about 6 years ago via cystoscopy. At first I had lots of pain and was put on Elmiron. I took that for about a year and then just stopped. I've noticed over the last year or so that my symptoms have gotten a lot better. I find...

- Earlier this winter I had been feeling just horrible. I could tell I was low, after having this disease for a few years you learn how to listen to your body. I told my doctor and he put me on 5mcg of liothyronine twice a day. I have been feeling...
- I had my blood drawn yesterday because I just haven't been feeling very well. I'm cold all the time, I'm more tired than normal, I notice that I get irritated very easily, and even though I've been dieting and exercising it is next to impossible to...
- A couple weeks ago I started dieting and exercising. My thyroid condition is considered stable, as in my levels are normal. But I am still having problems losing weight. I do the same as anyone else but it takes me twice as long to lose anything at...
- Mom just had another checkup at Mayo and I have some GREAT news to share with all of you. Her CPK is down to 173!!! It's the high side of normal, but I'm still very happy. This is the first time in 3 years that it's been normal, I honestly never...
- My mom was diagnosed with Polymyositis 3 years ago, she's been on Prednisone ever since then. This time she came back to the doctor with news that she has to go see a nephrologist (kidney doctor). She has had mild renal insufficiency for a while...
- Today I went to the doctor for a bladder infection. I was looking through the lab report and it said that there was glucose in my urine. This has never happened before. I don't have any of the symptoms of diabetes ad my doctor didn't act concerned...
- Tonight is not a very good night. I have been having really bad pressure and pain in my lower abdominal area, they feel like menstrual cramps, but they're not. I think I have yet another bladder infection. I'm not sure though because usually I have...
- I was diagnosed with Graves' Disease about 4 years ago. I had radioactive iodine and after 3 years I am FINALLY normal on all my labs. When I go for my check ups my doctor is always concerned about my eyes. He tells me that if they ever start to...
- My mom is gonna be recieving her first Cyclophosphamide infusion this week at Mayo. I'm a little nervous of what to expect. The side effects sound like they really suck, but if it works I think it would be worth it. Has anyone tried this for...
- Hey y'all. I'm new here. I was diagnosed with Graves' disease going on 4 years ago, I was 16 years old. It all started out with me getting really sick. The doctors thought it was a stomach virus and thought it just needed to run it's course. ...
