UTI/AF
Since having a kidney transplant I am bothered with UTI's which quickly clears up after taking antibiotics. I also have a PAF episode more or less within a day or two of this. Has anyone else noticed having AF when also having an infection? My potassium and magnesium levels are lower than normal when

Diarrhoea saga continued
I've had diarrhoea on and off for over a year. It started after breakfast and stopped around lunch time, not every day, but about 3 days a week. It's been slowly getting more frequent. A month or so ago I spoke to the GP who first diagnosed me with PMR/GCA. She tested me for coeliac and cancer, both

Can NDT help with low calcium levels?
Since my total thyroidectomy in April I have been on put on 125 mcg of Levothyroxine and am tolerating it quite well ( no gastro problems like with most tablets and energy levels ok ) except for extreme muscle stiffness and joint pain. Calcium levels tend to be fluctuating between ‘ normal’ and low.

vitamin K2
Does anyone take vitamin K2 supplements? There are claims that it reduces calcium deposits in arteries. If so, would it cause problems for PV patients?

Update on Cholesterol
Hi Everyone! Just thought I'd share a small but positive update on my previous posts. I had some tests ran earlier in the year due to family history of heart problems, My ECG, Echo and CT Angiogram/ Calcium score was all good, my only negative was some follow up bloods I got done around the same time

Why am I afraid to go to the bathroom?
I’ve been dealing with constipation issues for the past year. I can only attribute it to gettin older - never had any problems before that. I won’t go into the details of what I have tried - I’ve taken lots of great hints from videos and forums; a lot of it seems to work - and then it doesn’t.
