Forsteo ending, Zoledronic acid is next.
Dear friends, Once again I’m going to ask some questions on behalf of my dear wife. If you can share your experiences or give advice, we would be most grateful. Our first question is, if you have completed a course of Teriparatide injections, how long did you wait before your next course of treatment

What should I be doing about tapering prednisolone?
Hello again, good people. I posted a few weeks ago when newly diagnosed and have learned a lot from your advice but I think I need a bit more. I said then my GP wanted me to begin a taper from 15mg prednisolone after a month to 10mg. At 4 weeks on pred (last Thursday) I had bloods taken - ESR 8, CRP

Hi. I had a mild heart attack in October 2021, one stent fitted. Follow up echocardiogram ecg in April 2022, all good, told no further appointments unless there's any problems. I am currently on Candesartan, Bisoprolol, Omeprazole, Aspirin and Rosuvastatin. No one has reviewed this since October 2022

8 embryos after almost losing hope
I’ve been debating whether to post but wanted to provide hope to those who have struggled to produce viable embryos. We’ve attempted IVF twice and weren’t able to reach blast, even resulting in tri-zygote. The third time, we had 15 mature eggs and 13 fertilised. All reached blast and we were able to

Alendronic acid
Since my flair up I've now been on 15mg pred ( up from 7mg)for 3 weeks. Well, iv'e not felt this good in years. I can actually walk properly, walk with a stride and at a decent pace without feeling that my legs are bound by a resistance band. My energy levels are almost normal as some 4 years ago.

Discovery of a signaling feedback circuit that defines interferon responses in myeloproliferative neoplasms- Published: 01 April 2022
This gets a little deep, but nonetheless may explain some things:
Abstract
Interferons (IFNs) are key initiators and effectors of the immune response against malignant cells and also directly inhibit tumor growth. IFNα is highly effective in the treatment of myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs

Retested: low D & B12, high ferritin
I have retested with medicheck because I'm in the queue to see a private endocrinologist about my symptoms. I was hoping that treating my vitamins and minerals may give a different thyroid hormone picture. Iron 239ug/L (range 30-150) I am under haematology, treated for iron deficiency anaemia. Tested

PBC and another auto immune
My doctor gave me Ursodiol 500 mg and propranolol 10 mg. If I take 500 mg it will give me watery diarrhea. When I take 250 mg it is ok for several doses. It will get to the point of not feeling well, unablre to function very well and I get very mean which isn't my personally. So, I stop taking the

Sulphoraphane in canola / rapeseed oil?
Now when I see the beautiful yellow rapeseed fields, I wonder if this cruciferous plant, like broccoli, kale and Brussels sprouts, also contains as much sulphoraphane, especially in the concentrated form when cold pressed (bio) oil is made from it. Canola / rapeseed oil would have the lowest percentage

Advice about plan of treatment
I am 67, was diagnosed with PMR 2 weeks ago after 4 weeks of symptoms (stiffness and pain in neck, arms, shoulders, couldn't raise arms above shoulders, immense tiredness etc). Initial GP contact was excellent - he identified the problem, blood tests same day, consult 2 days later to confirm diagnosis

I have osteoporosis and I took Fosamax for a while and then lost 6 teeth! I stopped taking it a while ago, but my back is giving me grief now. I am taking calcium and Vitamin D, but I need to find out whether there are any alternatives to alendronic acid.
