Do people feel their doctors told them what they need to know?
I was diagnosed just after the start of the pandemic. It was lockdown = pandemonium. All the same it sticks in my mind that all I was told about Pred was when to take it and to reduce.. Really, they seemed most concerned about alendronic acid and how I must sit upright. Do people risk death if they

Caprylic Acid promotes the progression of prostate cancer.
New study below [1]. Long-term vilification of saturated fats have led us to be afraid of longer-chain fats, such as (the innocent) stearic acid (C16:0). The short & medium chain fats don't get much press. "Caprylic acid {C8:0} (from Latin capra 'goat') ... is a saturated, medium-chain fatty acid"

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

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
