“To puff or not to puff ?”
The fact that smoking causes lung and heart disease isn't exactly news, and only tobacco industry executives would express (feigned) shock at being told. But, excuse the pun, cigarettes can lead to a whole slew of problems involving every system of your tar-filled body, especially if your immune system

W7R2: For my colleague who died on Wednesday
So my close colleague for 13 years died on Wednesday after a failed stem cell transplant. (We are both doctors) He was planning to be back at work in March after a week in ICU and recovery. In fact he had 3 months in ICU then 2 weeks on a normal ward then his last 3 days ventilated in ICU. What a shitty

Organ transplant
There are a few posts/posters on here about liver transplants, or people with advanced liver disease who might, in the future, need to be assessed for a liver transplant. It popped into my head, if we would be prepared to accept a liver transplant, would we also be prepared to donate our organs for

statins and liver enzymes.

I have overall cholesterol of 2.8 (low), normal BMI, low BP, do not drink alcohol and other liver enzymes normal. Nurse

I had CABG in 2009 due to stent closing up and causing MI. Still here, but have low blood pressure episodes/ vasovagal episodes/ presyncope.
Pre stent, I felt physically well even though my LAD was 90% blocked. I have had several 24 hour and 2x3 day cardiac monitors and heart apparently fine. Ejection fraction 65%, so few problems there. I also developed stomach/bowel problems post op. and this seems to be associated with the presyncopes.

Green tea does not suit everyone!
Hi my husband has been hypothyroid for over 17 years. For the last 5 or 6 years has been very lethargic and lacking energy to such an extent that he has had to reduce his working to two days a week. I (not hypothyroid) was recently advised to drink green tea by a dermatologist to help scar healing

So what is a Neutropenic Diet? Why should we follow it post treatment?
For people with severely compromised immune systems, food can be a source of infection when pathogens can enter the body, multiply and cause opportunistic infections. These infections are much more serious for people who have lower-than-normal neutrophil counts, such as people receiving treatment for
