Anyone have an opinion on this issue as I prepare to see a MO?
Could the PET/CT SCAN have read the high glucose in my system as met pelvic lymph nodes and met bone? Just asking since I was looking over my medical records for the last 10 years and the calcium number has always been in the mid-range, but the glucose has always been very high. (I am a type 2 diabetic

Could MCAS a possibility?
Hello everyone, I have been wondering for a while if I could have MACS. Last year I was diagnosed with a Raw Pecan allergy, borderline brazil and salami allergy through raw food skin to skin prick testing and given epi pens. My immunologist at the time did not want to risk it as I have asthma and

Which medicine is messing with my thyroid med uptake
Might anyone be able to suggest which of my other meds has affected my thyroid med uptake (100mcg thyroxine and 2x5mcg t3)? I was prescribed digoxin, furosemide and bisoprolol after having open heart surgery 3 mths ago to resolve some anatomical defects. Uptil that point thyroid levels were stable

Vibrations and low thyroid??
Hi my name is Babs! im still figuring out how to use this site but I can’t say enough how unfortunately happy I was to find other ppl who are dealing with this also! Mine started about six months ago when I started weaning down on my gabapentin. Then my thyroid started acting up, and it seemed like

Update
Good morning everyone. Still warm and breathing, was locked out of my account and only just got back in. When I was first diagnosed with GCA I was on HRT I was told by the Rheumatologist that I should stay on it to protect my bones from the Prednisolone. My DEXA showed normal density probably due

What are the better treatments for metastasis of the bone and pelvic lymph nodes?
Just found out the past few weeks from a biopsy and a PET/CT scan that the cancer was not contained in the prostate but metastasized to the pelvic lymph nodes and the bones. Was a surprise to me and to the urologist as well. He is recommending no surgery but a multimodal therapy with androgen deprivation

Anyone diagnosed with Esophageal Spasms?
My GERD has taken a change for the worse and now experiencing what the gastro thinks are esophageal spasms, probably triggered by GERD. Very painful and they come and go in waves. Currently keeping them somewhat in check with the calcium channel blocker Diltiazem. Wondering if anyone else has this

Verapamil
Hello there. Quick question, I have read the literature on the tablet and posts, but can anyone tell me if Verapamil is categorised as a blood thinner. Sorry I know it’s a beta blocker but that’s calcium. I’m currently on other medication and I’m checking if they are working against each other

Calcium and Levothyroxine
I've heard that I must not have any Calcium intake four hours before and after taking Levothyroxine, as the calcium absorbs the drug, lessening its effectiveness. Has anybody else heard of this?

Help with blood test results please

are CTx numbers supposed to be extremely under range while on prolia?
is that the point of anti resorptive? is P1NP supposed to be upper range on prolia, or lower range on prolia? my Mum's numbers are low. but the tests haven't been done for years, i don't think, and they were run within 3 months of prolia doses, so the ctx would be expected to be low? and Mum's

Flares trying to get from 9 mg to 8 mg
I got PMR in May 2023 and I was diagnosed in Sept 2023. I started on 20 mg and have tapered down to 9 with just one flare. I did a 5 week taper March 1st, trying to get from 9 to 8 mg, but at the end of the 5 week plan on an 8 mg dose, I started getting groin and hip pain and morning stiffness. I tried

I am 77 and fell and broke my wrist and as I looked at my dexa chart, the bone density has gone down and I had osteoporosis. Synthroid can cause this decline (check on the manufacturer's

Raised Blood Pressure on Nifidipine
was previously on ramipril in order to medicate as stage 1 hypertensive and needed protection as had Thoraic Ascending Aneurysm. My BP on this averages around 120/80. The TAA was repaired last year with OHS. In order to counteract oesophageal issues I now take Nifidipine which is a calcium channel blocker

Advice on Blood results please?
Hi, I'm not diagnosed with any thyroid problems but have had numerous blood tests over the last 4 years because of severe menopause symptoms that have not responded to HRT. Would you be able to have a look and see what you think please? I have also included some of the vitamins tested.

Anyone else with Jak2 PV have difficulty walking and leg pain?
I'm new here and really happy I found this forum. I've been diagonsed with Jak2 positive PV a year ago, after feeling unwell for a couple of years, and after my blood tests have been abnormal for quite a while. For the past year, I've been on aspirin and Phlebotomies, which have kept my Hematocrit under
