Advice on blood results please!
I had been waiting to see an endocrinologist for 7 months after a low cortisol result in August last year. I saw them last week and they said there was nothing wrong with me according to tests and it was probably medication related. Please could I use the knowledge of this forum to look at my blood results

Why am I being tested for Hep B?
I have had Budd Chiari for nearly 14 years, I have a shunt and luckily everything has been going fine since then. I have an app every 6 months for an ultrasound scan, then my outpatient app and bloods taken. I had an appointment yesterday and like normal I was in and out quite quickly as the scan showed

Help in understanding drugs in Parkinsons
I've recently been diagnosed with Parkinsons and have been prescribed LevaDopa -1/2 tablet (125mg) 4 times per day. I understand that there are complimentary drugs such MAO-B Inhibitors (such as Selegiline, Rasagiline, and Safinamide) I've done some cursory reseach which indicates that MAO-B inhibitors

L-Theanine (not to be confused with Theanine B1)
Does anybody have any experience of supplementing with L-Theanine, (or drinking Green Tea, which contains L-Theanine) to help with sleep or any symptoms of Parkinsons? This video piqued by interest as it indicates that L-Theanine reduces the excitatory signals of Glutamate in the brain. https://www.youtube.com

US FDA declines to approve Supernus' Parkinson's combination again
The company plans to address the FDA's concerns and resubmit its application for the product, which aims to treat so-called "off episodes", which affects nearly all patients of Parkinson's, heightening symptoms such as tremors and difficulty in walking, as medication wears off. https://www.reuters.com

Fibroscan result waiting time?
Please can somebody tell me how long it takes to receive results for a fibroscan? I started this journey in November 2023 after asking for a general check-up at my GP surgery because of some non-liver related issues. I had no awareness at all that my liver could be damaged. After a few rounds of blood

Help with Cortisol test
Hello all, I had a saliva cortisol test done last week. Ive got the results back but with no comments from the clinic. They look okay/normal to me? Apart from the 3rd one? I was expecting them to be low as I thought I was suffering from adrenal fatigue. Could anyone advise me on these levels?

Urolithin A (UA) – To anybody taking, what’s your experience?
Sometimes, I feel gullible for the fleeing by an over-priced, over-hyped supplement. As I understand, UA is produced by bacteria in your gut and without the right bacteria, your gut can’t produce from food. And, maybe the product is more concentrated than what’s produced by bacteria. AI Says: “Urolithin

shrinking lung syndrome
Has anyone else been diagnosed with a rare condition called shrinking lung syndrome. It’s so rare, approximately only 0.5-1.1 % people with Lupus get it. I’m real scared as at time I feel like I’m slowly suffocating! Still getting more tests done to see if diaphragm isn’t partially paralyzed. Did you

Bad news: prostate cancers doubling by 2040
Bad news on one side, for all the guys that will join the damn club (and the trends say their age is lowering as well....I am an example actually!).
