Parathyroid Hormone
I have been on dialysis for 7 years. Three years ago my primary physician advised I start receiving Prolia shots for Osteoporosis. I have had approximately 6 shots and each time my PTH increases greatly until time for the next shot when it falls below normal levels. These increases in PTH have caused

Taking Levo at night along with Mirtazapine
Hi, I am at long last starting on 25mcg of levo (Wockhardt). I take half a Mirtazapine (7.5mg) at night as I am such a poor sleeper. I have severe osteoporosis and take various supplements including calcium so taking Levo in the morning is a bit difficult with breakfast (including fortified plant

Ultrasound Guided Steroid Injection & Tear in Tendon
Hi Everyone I was booked for the above in my right shoulder this afternoon, the radiographer said, so you're here to see if you need a steroid injection in your shoulder, I replied that I thought that was what I was having done anyway. Once he'd finished using the ultrasound, he said that I did have

Raynaud's Dr.'s Appt. Outcome Am I Expecting Too Much
I actually had an appointment with just the rheumatologist. First time with no residents. Now I see like Kay said, the residents are important. The doctor did no examination . He did ask about the prescriptions he gives me and although my file was in front of him, he seemed not that versed in what they

EH up, never expected that.
Managed to actually get a GP face to face appointment this morning. That's a result in itself. So , went ready to argue my case for repeat testing, testing PTH, IF, . Started discussion by stating I was not criticising the practice, or individual GP's because I understand it is a very specialised

Statin Drugs and Prostate Cancer recurrence
Hello all. A month or so ago, I wrote about my hubby's blood test showing a calcium level of 134. Many of you good folks responded and some suggested that it might be a mistake. Well, it WAS a mistake. His blood calcium level falls within the normal range. We learned that the 134 figure was referring

Panic Attacks
For about two years, I've experienced panic attacks several times a week. The first time that I had one I went to the ER, because I thought I was having a heart attack. The main symptoms are a shortness of breath, a feeling of tightening in the chest, and an overall sense of weakness. I've had problems

Here we are again!
Hi everyone, Following on from the last bloods I had, my GP helpfully informed me that my folate level is fine, even though it is currently 4.7 (range 3.1-20). Does this sound right to you? Because to me that is suggestive that I need to supplement with folate. I have also started having strange symptoms

Even if you increase your bone density, you still have osteoporosis
Hi everyone, I was just looking over the updated Clinician's Guide to Osteoporosis and noticed something that bears mentioning on this forum. A lot of users seem to be focused on increasing their bone mineral density as measured by their T-score on a DXA test. American Bone Health recommends you focus

Potassium!
Has anyone else tried supplementing potassium to ease arrythmias? I've had a surprising result. Sorry for long post. Magnesium is the oft talked about one for AF or ectopics, and I added magnesium quite a while back, with a marginal though noticeable effect on damping ectopics. I recently checked

Gut and brain connection
I have had gut issues for a number of years. The medical people have come up with a DX IBS-C many times. In the past I have treated my problem with bentyl(drug to relax intestines) and metamucil. Neither seems to help anymore. I currently get a brain fog and pressure in my brain. It is difficult
