GP's ignorance
A couple of months ago I posted that I had been diagnosed with PBC in 1999 via having elevated AMAs, but have since been in the care of my GP . During that time I have had no treatment whatsoever , despite steadily worsening LFTs, with considerably raised Alk Phos and GGT and symptoms of intense itching

Is IGM of 23 & neuro symptoms enough for diagnosis/treatment?
Had an EMG, EEG, SSEP, VEP, etc (I guess tests for MS /
ALS
) and all came out totally normal. I failed a tilt test and passed out after standing still for only 20 minutes.

Yet Another "New Kid"
So I don't know if it matters, but I noticed through my reading that most of the posters are in the UK. I am in the US and have been reading the boards for a bit while I waited for the rest of my results to come in and for the final confirmation. I was informed on January 8th by my gastroenterologist

coming in short "bursts" He said, as others have on here, that everyone gets ectopics up to hundreds in a day but most people don't notice them.

Ice Bucket Challenge!
The Ice Bucket Challenge for raising awareness and money for Motor Neurone Disease (
ALS
) has gone around the world. What can we set in motion for PSP/CBD awareness and raising research money that would be just as simple and just as effective. Cheers T.

Ice Bucket Challenge
For those who haven't, basically people are having buckets of ice cold water poured over them to raise awareness of
ALS
and raise money, they are videoed doing it and them they nominate more people to do it. Does anyone know if there is any risk to to an AFib sufferer?

Low Calcium and B12
I am hypothyroid (3 years and adequately replaced on levo 125mcg). I have just got my latest blood test results back and although the GP hasn't contacted me I've looked at the results and think that treatment is required. I'm not sure if low calcium and low B12 are related but if I can understand
