Turning things around
I just wanted to write to show other readers that you can turn things around. I wrote on here a couple of weeks ago venting frustration at the lack of communication regarding test results and finally got to see a consultant yesterday. I was admitted to hospital in May last year via A & E and was

Graves, on carbimazole for 10 months
Not sure if you can actually see this, it's very small. I was diagnosed with Graves (Trab +ve) in April last year and have been treated with Carbimazole. It has been a bumpy ride but I am towards the end of my menopausal journey after years of severe PMS so who knows. I have been on Sertraline since

Vitamin D metabolism in cancer: potential feasibility of vitamin D metabolism blocking therapy
New paper below [1]. Vitamin D circulates in the blood as inactive 25-D. The kidneys will convert 25-D to the active hormone 1,25-D, as needed, to maintain circulating calcium levels. Elsewhere, cells that need 1,25-D first produce the enzyme that performs the conversion of 25-D. It is normal for

Yesterday Saw My Nephrologist
Hi Everyone, Yesterday I had an appointment with my nephrologist I was being seen every three months, but my labs in October of last were stable so they had me follow up in 5 months. To my surprise my regular nephrologist left her practice so now I'm under a new Dr's care. My blood pressure was a bit

Just met with my regular hematologist for a follow up. The CBC looks good, with HCT dropping a bit more to 43.0%. All the other numbers look good. We will carry on with the current plan, Besremi 150mcg and monitor labs every 8 weeks. I am very pleased that the three more doses of Besremi + a single

Valium RLS
Is anyone using Valium/diazepam or any other benzo to treat RLS? The Horizant that I’ve been using for the last year and a half isn’t working as well as it used to.

Calcium and other bone needs
Decided not to take the 500 g of calcium built into the triple pill containing K2 and D3. It was also a huge pill which is off putting. I’ve purchased the K2 and D3 combination but picked a separate one for the calcium which contains 250 g. Good thing is it has other goodies included like manganese and

Does anyone take NDT at night?
Hi I’m thinking about swapping my meds to nighttime. I currently take a combination of ERFA and thyroxine first thing, and then another 1/2 grain of ERFA at lunch. But my calcium is very low and I need to take multiple doses at the moment which is tricky with thyroid meds. So I’ve been thinking

Do you think ivf treatment abroad is better and why?
Hi everyone, I would like to get some advice regarding treatments abroad, please. We are with a great private clinic in London, but our last attempt was disastrous. Would you please be able to share your treatment plan or protocol and how it was different from the one received here in Uk? According

BONE HELP
I have done so many hours of research on osteoporosis drugs and the natural route. Our bodies fight anything you put into your body that is not of natural substance. Too many people have had terrible results from all these prescriptions. Doctors do not have the time to stay up with research on these

Third Update, Triple Threat and still no Buzzards Above. Now, why Ibrance?
HEART: The message from the heart surgeon at Columbia PresbyterianHospital is that although the aortic heart valve is thick with calcium and has stenosis, the opening has not got small enough for surgery. So, I will have to be monitored and wait till I get sick enough for surgery. No time frame is given

I haven’t been very present in the group this last week. It’s been a very up and down time. Briefly I’ve had an awful time, feeling confused, exhausted and abandoned. One doctor on a telephone call upped my pred dose from 15 to 30, increased my painkillers for the better. After several bad nights both
