View 1 RepliesMultiple Sclerosis :: Why To Have Copper Level?
I was recently referred to a new neurologist. I saw him this past Friday and really liked him. I have had a lot of test run at this point. Including brain MRI which shows what my doctor called one "MS" lesion and one "ischemic" lesion. I am so confused when it comes to lesions. My new neurologist is scheduling a lumbar puncture and will do a MS panel. He also ordered a copper level. Anyone know the reason behind this? I was curious...I don't think I have ever had a copper level done.
View 4 RepliesContraception :: Copper Coil - No Periods At All
I had the copper coil fitted 8 weeks ago. I was rubbish at taking the pill every time I missed a couple I would have a period so we with the IUD as a more natural and reliable contraception. Since I had it fitted end of Aug I had one period the week after. And nothing since! Now due my second period I have period pains terrible mood swings headaches but just clear discharge but tainted a little with brown blood. Last week I had clear discharge when I wiped with a few spots of pink blood that's it! My boobs are sore everything that says my period should be happening or due but nothing! I had my 6 week check up after having the coil fitted and told the doc about not having a period she seemed completely baffled and said that the copper coil makes periods heavier not stops them and did a preg test which was negative in said come back in 3 months if nothing changes. This to me seems a long time if there's a complication it could be too late by then.
View 2 RepliesContraception :: Mirena Or Copper Coil?
I'm going to have a coil inserted, but I'm not sure which to have, I leaning more towards the hormonal/Mirena/IUS coil but can I have that inserted if I'm not on my period?
Also with the copper coil, I've heard that the periods can get heavier, how long do they last for? Does it slowly get better at all?
And any tips before I go to the doctors on what I should prepare myself for? What the entire procedure is like? I know all these websites have talked through it but from people's own point of view, what's the experience like?

COPD :: Combining Copper Supplements With NAC
I have been recommended to use NAC as a COPD therapy so I guess I would like to hear something about this medication. Will it works, what are the possible side effects. I have also heard that if you are using it for a long time, combining it with copper supplements would be a smart thing to do. Why is that?

View 1 RepliesContraception :: Agonizing Pain With Copper Coil
i've had the copper coil in for 2 days. the day i got it in i was in pain but i just assumed my womb was contracting as i was told by the nurse that put it in, so i went home and slept. since then i have been in agonizing pain( wanting to scream and unable to do things). i went back the day after it was fitted and they could see the string so they said it was fine.
i cant feel the string myself so i don't know if its in the right place.
before i had it in i was in the mini pill for 2 weeks, i was told it would work straight away so me and my partner didn't use condoms but now i've researched it and it says that you are not protected for the first week.
i wondered if this has happened to anyone else? or if people think there is a chance it is a perforated womb ( the pain feels bruised and stabbing shooting on my felt side) or if it could be an ectopic pregnancy or anything else?
do you think i should go A and E?
Contraception :: Copper Coil Causing Constant UTI's?
I am having some issues with my coil. I have had nothing but praise for the copper coil since I had it put in around 8 months ago - however I am now starting to have some issues that I believe are related. I have always been prone to UTI's - normally I can get rid of them quickly by drinking a lot of water or taking a sachet. I have had some strange burning sensation when I pee - around December..I had check ups and all came back clear. I then developed the worst UTI I have ever had in February. I had 2 sets of antibiotics and it was relentless. Eventually it faded away - but I never felt fully better. It is over 2 months later and I still feel this pain and pressure (it is bearable now but still doesn't feel right) - it also hurts when I have sex. It is a strange feeling, its like burning. I almost feel like the balance isn't right if that makes sense. I have read many forums and seen people having similar problems and saying things about the infection 'sticking' to the plastic device. I want to go and have it taken out - but I react badly to hormonal contraception so not sure what I'll do. Just wondered if anyone has experienced anything similar?
View 1 RepliesContraception :: Uncomfortable Scratching Feeling Copper IUD
I had a Paragard IUD fitted in early June, and everything had been going going brilliantly up until a few days ago. My periods has become slightly heavier/more painful, but the non hormonal contraceptive and convenience definitely outweighed a couple of days of discomfort a month. I had a pretty heavy period last week, and my boyfriend came to visit at the weekend so I didn't get around to checking my strings until Monday, when I felt a small lump next to the opening of my cervix, though I could still feel the strings. I panicked thinking I was expelling and booked an emergency appointment with the GP. She examined me and said that everything looked fine, I had a small nabothian cyst on my cervix but it wasn't anything to do with my coil, nor was it of any concern as they are very common. I felt really relieved but I also have this odd feeling, like I can physically feel my iud. I feel a bit crampy when I sit down, and it almost feels like something is scratching my uterus. I didn't have this before. Has anyone had a similar experience or feeling? I really hope it subsides because the copper IUD is ideal for me in every other aspect, I have PCOS and don't want to mess up my cycles with hormonal contraceptives.
View 1 RepliesContraception :: Copper Coil And Weight Loss
I ask if anyone has come off the pill had the copper coil fitted and managed to lose weight. I've put 3 stone on and can't budge it. I'm going for a consultation on Monday for the coil. I think what I'll find weird is I've never had a period in years so will not be looking forward to that. Do you have to have it fitted after you've had a period?
View 2 RepliesContraception :: Pain One Week After Copper Coil
So last Tuesday I had my copper coil fitted. I explained before hand that I was going on holiday four days after and the nurse suggested I stay on my pill (cerazette) for the duration of my holiday to avoid having a period.
The process was pretty straight forward it did hurt and I did vomit and feel about weird afterwards but I think that's because I hadn't eaten in a few hours.
Anyway, fast forward just over a week now and I'm still getting really bad cramps and bleeding quite a lot even though I'm still taking my pill. Taking pain relief helps but I just wanted to know is this normal?
