Week six post ablation
Hello All, First of all I would like to thank the person or people who wrote those sheets about what to expect after an ablation. No professional gave me any comparable helpful information about how I might feel afterwards. Anyway, this is week six and I’m worried that I’m going backwards. This week

Options when Docetaxel stops working
Hi everyone- My brother was diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer in April of 2021. His PSA was 52 at the time of his diagnosis. He went on Lupron and Abiraterone which took his PSA to .03 and kept it low until Oct 2022. It went to 8.9 and his doctor put him on Docetaxel chemo. His PSA has continued

Arginine and Taurine
Has anyone here had success with Arginine/Taurine/Magnesium? My Naturopath is willing to have me try but I am wondering if anyone has any firsthand knowledge out there of how long it takes to see results or not? Thanks!

FENCHOL (in basil spice)
Has anyone here experimented with Fenchol and had good results? The easiest way to experiment with Fenchol would probably be to cover your food in basil spice for many days and wait to see if you notice any improvements. FENCHOL was recently proven to show improvements in Alzheimer's, but I noticed a

Maze + LLA closure?
I've been a forum member for several years with my afib stories. Now, I am scheduled to have open chest triple bypass surgery this January 2nd, a prospect causing much anxiety (not over the procedure, per se, but the lengthy recovery time. Anyway........ The surgeon told me he could give me a bargain

Scientists PREVENT DEATH of NEURONS in Alzheimer's research!
Summary:
"Researchers have unveiled the mystery behind neuron death in Alzheimer’s disease. A groundbreaking study reveals that neurons undergo a programmed cell death, necroptosis, when exposed to amyloid plaques and tau tangles, hallmark proteins linked to Alzheimer’s. The study pinpoints

Did a follow up visit today with my hepatologist and he did this FIB4 calc for me. He extracted my data and assessed. Liver disease is frequently asymptomatic, challenging early identification in the primary care setting. The fibrosis 4 (FIB4) index is a liver fibrosis biomarker that is a potential

Newly Discovered Trigger of Parkinson’s Upends Common Beliefs
Degeneration of dopaminergic neurons is widely accepted as the first event that leads to Parkinson’s. But the new study suggests that a dysfunction in the neuron’s synapses — the tiny gap across which a neuron can send an impulse to another neuron — leads to deficits in dopamine and precedes the neurodegeneration

fibroscope
nearly 5yrs alcohol free. Recent fibroscope has gone from 80+ to 40. But I still have cirrhosis (with no symptoms and normal blood results). Can I be optimistic that my liver is recovering or will it never recover ?

protein supplements: yes or no?
Since I just finished Viewray Tx at UCLA, I’m moving on to the diet & exercise research zone. I’d like input on what the latest research, if any, is RE protein supplements. Whey isolate vs. vegan protein supp? Does either one promote or suppress PCa after Tx? Also, what’s the latest on eggs? It seems

Been having a bad year. Ive been unwell since July and was eventually hospitalised with double pneumonia in September. My rheumatologist treated me for a lupus flare as I had been in a similar situation years previous when first diagnosed with lupus. The dose of steroids did the trick and I was sent

Hello again. Questions with AF medications
Hi. Need to ask this question on current medications. Furosemide (water pill) 40 mg. once per day. Metoprolol (heart pill) 75 mg. twice a day. And Xarelto (blood thinner) 20 mg. once per day. Has anyone experienced any type of anxiety while on these types of AF medications? I occasionally suffer
