Low muscle mass
Hi, I have been on a set dose that is as optimal as can be expected - for approx 2 years. Levaxin 150 mcg Liotyronin 5 mcg (+an extra 5 mcg once in a while, when my pulse goes down to mid-50s). My question is if anyone else has low muscle mass, and difficulty increasing muscle mass? Does anyone know

Which foods should you eat together and which separately?
I'm at the wait-and-see stage with my CLL and have been hoping to delay treatment by eating anti-cancer foods. I'm a researcher with a PhD, so my first inclination was to look up the scholarly research. There are four foods that have been effective against CLL in the laboratory: 1. EGCG: green tea.

Augmentation & Ropnirole
My story started in 2013 when shortly after a prostate surgery procedure my rls became a significant issue. A hospital neurologist prescribed Ropinirolde (dosage o.25mg rising to 0.5mg) & tramadol.(50mg) Apart from one or two instances the prescription allowed me more often than not 8 hours sleep every

Bowel Screening Test Shows Traces Of Blood
I've had ibs for many years & always dreaded turning 60 & having to do bowel screening, the FOBT result came today & showed traces of blood, now have to do a FIT test & am absolutely terrified, if it's positive I'll have to have a colonoscopy. I have a phobia about colonoscopies following a bad experience

Any thoughts?
Hi - I was diagnosed in Jan 2012 HGSOC stage 3C. I’ve had a lot of chemo lines and two surgeries but had very good quality of life over the years. (Details of treatment in profile.) I am currently almost through weekly paclitaxel but numbers rising and scan showed slight progression. Seeing oncologist

Cancer and gut issues
Does anyone have cancer and going through treatments, all my doctors cannot answer me as to why I have all the gut problems (blowing up with gas) have tried peppermint tea, gas ex, Mylanta, eating nothing everyday. Which is not good with Stage IV, doctors will not give me a clear answer for diverticulitis

I’m shocked!
My Endo who sent me for radioactive iodine whole body scan isn’t a Endocrinologist after all he’s a military medical intern who now works in pediatrics and I’m left without a doctor and have thyroid cancer recurrence. Can you believe this I even asked him you plan on sticking around here and he said

Not the most pleasant of questions
I have cirrhosis and along with a multitude of other medication I take lactulose daily. Now as you may be aware one of the nice side effects of lactulose is flatulence, and I mean pretty much none stop. This is both embarrassing to me and irritating to my family, is there anything I can do? is it ok

I’m farting blood. Not joking
Sorry this is a graphic pic but I need people to know how much blood Im talking about. I just turned 40 years old and have gone for colonoscopies every 2 or 3 years for the past 10 years because of blood in my stool and I have a family history of colon cancer. Every time it’s the same results/story,

Vitex and Myo inositol
Hi I have SLE over the past 9 years. I have PCOD and hormonal imbalance. I am trying to conceive for the past 3 years. But all the treatments failed. I tried IUI also. Now I am planning to take vitex and Myo Inositol supplements to cure hormonal imbalance. Is it good or bad to try them with lupus?
