Blood test results
I seem to be on my own with management of levothyroxine & calcium, having had my Endocrinologist appointment cancelled & non cooperative dr since moving counties. I am 77 & had thyroid & parathyroid removed due to thyroid cancer many years ago. These are my recent results - Serum TSH level 0.14 min/L

Potassium Citrate -Amazingii
I had a procedure in January for removal of a kidney stone and was advised by my Surgeon to take Potassium Citrate . This was found to help prevent recurring stones forming . Interestingly , this medication , which has a major common side effect of stomach issues and diarrhoea has had a reverse effect

No diabetes or hypertension but GFR/Creatinine cratering
What could be wrong with my kidneys if I'm not a diabetic and my high blood pressure has been completely controlled for years (129/78). A1c was normal, blood sugar normal (89), no protein in urine, BUN low, BUN/Creatinine normal, normal calcium, and potassium. My GFR was 54 and my Creatinine was 1.39

Advice with different blood tests
I am getting blood tests for selenium, zinc, calcium, parietal and endomysial antibodies. I don’t supplement any of these currently except for eating high selenium Brazil nuts. Should I stop this before and if so how long? Is there anything I should be aware of before testing for them in order to

Probably Alc Cirrhosis...What Now?
Hello everyone, Tl;dr- caught off guard by what I should have known was possible, looking for pointers on dealing with the inevitable end stage. Sorry about the long post--I don't have my official diagnosis yet, but see where it's headed and thought I would share my story. Been drinking heavily for

Did running make you change your diet?
So being a vegi runner caught up with me recently, and my runs got really sluggish during the end of Jan and the first 2 weeks of Feb. It turns out it was due to a lack of nutrients mostly iron, B12 and calcium. I since have adjusted my diet to include loads of greens and taking calcium suppliments

Beginning of a flare or arthritis?
Seeking some input...have been very slowly tapering (0.5mg every 4-6 weeks), now on 6mg. Over the past 2 weeks I've had increasing stiffness and pain in my hands and loss of strength, and also in my left knee. I normally walk every day but I'm experiencing a lot of fatigue. Could this be arthritis

Magnesium and thyroid issues
Has anyone tried increasing their magnesium intake to help their body to heal? This would help readjust the balance in the body between calcium and magnesium as they work as antagonists (work in balance with each other). Magnesium is used in hundreds of processes in the body so if we don't have enough

Blood test results.
Hi wonder workers! following my blood test of 2 weeks ago at 9.20 am I was surprised to find a printout in mailbox from the Endocrinologist. So basically many tests that were low or below range are now high. I will mostly include those tests that are now low or high. There is no blood sugar or cholesterol

Recommendations for Magnesium tablets
I’ve been bothered by ectopics recently, and so have decided to try some magnesium tablets as a supplement. Last time I tried Holland and Barrett’s magnesium citrate, taking the recommended dose of 3x100mg tablets per day (£6.99 for 100 tablets). I wondered if there was anything known to be really good

Is the RDA of Calcium based on what needs to be absorbed or the calcium food content to be consumed?
So for me to get 305 mg of calcium absorbed I'd need to eat 500 mg of Broccoli calcium or 1,000 mg of cheese
calcium
. In addition, I am taking
Calcium
citrate
300 mg day, usually once per day. What is the absorption rate on an empty stomach (nothing consumed 2 hours either side)?

Liver and Kidney Ultra-sound Results
I have a call with my doctor later today to discuss my results. I was sent for an ultra sound scan back in September 2020, and I had this done on 11th February 2021 some 5 months later. I think the delay must have been due to covid! My recent bloods have shown : ......................................

painful ankle this morning
Woke up to a slightly swollen tender to touch ankle. I didnt injure it although I did bruise the opposite side a month ago. Just wondering if its calcium deposit or could steroids do this? I'm currently tapering to 5.5 mg prednisone. im concerned too if it couldbe an infection.

IBRUTINIB AND HIP PAIN
IBRUTINIB AND HIP PAIN: First, I want to say that since Ibrutinib is such a miraculous drug, many people want to stay on it. The hip pain needs work throughout the day, but can be mitigated or eliminated. The main muscles that cause pain around the hips are the quadratus Lumborum and the gluteal muscles-there

Chapter 17. I dream of the revolution that must come... 2/2.
This is chapter 17 of a book I published in 2015, "A Different Way of Looking at Parkinson's. Almost 20 years of experience with my father's disease (1994-2012)" (only in Spanish). Although we have learned a lot more since that year, I think it can still be useful to most sufferers and family members
