Hi, 34 year old male here, I've been browsing this site for a few days now and from all the different experiences I've read I'm pretty sure I have decompensated liver, except there is a lot more to it than that. Let me start at the beginning. In late 2014 I spiraled into a deep depression after breaking

Taking Alendronic Acid and Adcal.
I have Valvular Heart Disease,Angina and COPD. I also have Calcified Blood Vessels. I was reading that if you have Calcified Blood Vessels you might be better off by not taking any Calcium tablets. I'm not sure what to do about it, whether or not to take the Calcium tablets or not. I know that none

Fish oil without the fishy smell or taste.
A new study, co-led by University of Cincinnati researchers, describes the development of a refining process that scientists deem a superior method to help produce better dietary omega-3 health and dietary supplements containing fish oil. Fish oil is widely known to be an excellent dietary source

Genomic analysis reveals many animal species may be vulnerable to SARS-CoV-2 infection.
Humans are not the only species facing a potential threat from SARS-CoV-2, the novel coronavirus that causes COVID-19, according to a new study from the University of California, Davis. An international team of scientists used genomic analysis to compare the main cellular receptor for the virus in humans

How to cope?
My symptoms began truly way back at 8 year old, my first period landed me in hospital. I suffered massive traumas, abuses at the hands of several pervert men, abuses from parents, bullied etc... how i made it this far is beyond me. Edit: These abuses were in childhood and are for context that i suffered

Does taking Urso cause some liver pain?
Liver specialist says I have PBC or Autoimmune Hepatitis. I am now on 1,000 mg of Ursodiol. My liver enzymes are very high but my liver had not been hurting for a while. Now that I am taking Urso I am feeling things in my liver. Is this normal? My hope is that the urso is working and my liver is adjusting

Is an Omega 3 Supplement a good idea?
I've been reading about the anti-inflammatory properties of Omega fish oils (3-6-9) - I would be interested in any experience with taking this type of supplement and whether it is safe to take with steroids? There is also a bewildering array of different formulations of these supplements, so any advice

Bisphosphonates for Long Term Steroid Use
My GP has been going on about me using Alendronic Acid since 2016. He went on about it again yesterday. He said they they have been told that anybody who has been on long term steroids MUST be given AA. I pointed out that my Dexascans were excellent and he looked them up and agreed, but he said that

Reflux / heartburn caused by alendronic acid.

Rheumatologist
Hello everyone I hope this is ok to ask. I have had PMR for over 9 years and only seen a rheumatologist once four years ago for advice on osteoporosis. He was in the Royal Surrey in Guildford and I didn't get on well with him because I am reluctant to take Denusomab on my dentist's advice. I am allergic
