Diagnosis - What to expect?
Hi, I was diagnosed with Sjogren's and auto immune hypothyroidism in 2017, currently taking 10mg methotrexate, I have suspected I have lupus too for a while, but lack of doctor appointments due to Covid and their general disinterest when I did have an appointment meant I carried on with no formal tests

Coarsened Hepatic Echotexture
This finding is from the newest elastography. I thought I was doing everything right. KPA in 2022 was 10.5 F2-F.3, now it's 5.5 F0-F0-F1. I quit drinking alcohol in 2020, went on Mediterranean diet, and walk 1-3 miles per day. The only vice I have is baked goods, cookies, cake, and candy. 2022

Well, the Board did complete its investigation. Five doctors were reprimanded. The resident on duty the night of the loss is no longer allowed to practice. The ICU doctor is no longer an ICU doctor but is still practicing—three more doctors whose disciplinary hearing was held behind closed doors three

Synacthen Test
Hi, I received a letter from my Rheumatologist saying that my cortisol levels are normal following the Synacthen test 2 weeks ago. It says it is now safe to stop taking steroids. My question is, as i have been on steroids for over 5 years should i just stop or continue reducing. I am now taking 2.5mg

Radiation after Docetaxel
My dad finished chemo Docetaxel in November 2023. In December his PSA was .61. In February it jumped to 2.3. He went for a PET scan. He went back to the doctor today his PSA jumped to 6. The scan showed that many of the metastasis in his bones shrunk are almost gone. There is one spot in his back that

We understand....
In my initial bio, I related to you that I had PBC for some 20 years before receiving a life saving liver transplant almost 19 years ago. In about 25% of those with liver transplants the PBC returns. We have to remember that our body still has the tendency to 'attack' it's own bile ducts and bile duct

Looks like even the covid vaccination has 2 sides to the story. (Rats. And just yesterday I had my 3rd booster.)
Increased IgG4 synthesis due to repeated mRNA vaccination with high antigen concentrations may also cause
autoimmune
diseases
, and promote cancer growth and
autoimmune
myocarditis in susceptible individuals."

Liver hemangiona
hi, I’ve just been told I have a small lover hemangiona. My mum passed away in September and her post mortem revealed advanced cancer of the gall bladder, bile ducts and liver lessions. I am told there is nothing to worry about but I have all the same symptoms my mum use to get, jaundiced eyes, swelling

Medication Change mid-Induction
Hello, I have renal limited vasculitis and am wondering if anyone has experience with a switch from Rituximab to Cyclophosphamide after 3 months of initial induction therapy? My first treatment that started almost 3 months ago was Rituximab with Prednisone. At first things were going well with eGFR

Chemo progress
PSA 139 @ DX1-2024 started Orgovyx and Nubeqa dropped PSA to 62.93. Started Chemo 1st infusion..PSA 23.3 2nd infusion..PSA 11.26 3rd infusion.. PSA 7.45 Just got my labs back for the 3rd infusion. Just feel disappointed as I was hoping for a larger drop and seemed to have stalled out. Does it look

Effects of dietary intervention on human diseases: molecular mechanisms and therapeutic potential
Several neurodegenerative diseases (NDs), such as epilepsy, Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Parkinson’s disease (PD), Huntington’s disease (HD), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), which feature chronic progressive damage to the nervous system, have been proven to be tightly connected with nutrient availability
