THE “C” WORD
Before I get kicked off this forum, “C” stands for Cirrhosis. And yes on my ultrasound report it mentions the dreaded “C” word. But there really is no difference between Cirrhosis and fybrosis except the degree of fybrosis at some arbitrary stage is classed as Cirrhosis. Immediately we hear or see

Questions
As I stated in my first post here, they told me my MRE results were "mild scarring."I thought it was gonna be a lot worse although I know scarring is to be taken seriously. I am awaiting to see stomach doctor and will no doubt learn more about what I'm dealing with. I have read early fibrosis doesn't

Heartbeat post cardioversion
Had 2 cardioversions within 3 months of initial diagnosis of Afib back in November 2019. Fine until arrythmia returned early July this year. Initially told to stop my regular Bisoprolol 1.25mg per day until cardioversion which I had mid August. Back in nsr since then. After the latest cardioversion

GP insisting on using CRP & ESR as inflammatory markers...and managing to get a creatine kinase blood test ordered...legs are still an issue
Hello I was called in to my GP surgery yesterday, by one of the GPs, the letter indicating it was for a medication review. She's not one of the GPs I prefer to see, she can be a little vague etc. But we ended up going through my meds and she asked about steroids being on my repeat....I said that although

NAFLD
was interested if anyone with NAFLD/NASH diagnosis and F2 fibrosis have a had consistent low or normal AST/ALT ? Basically any blood test I have had is right in the normal range, this includes antibodies, platelets etc. How can I be so fatigued if there are no signs in blood work, ever ? My fibroscan

Tikosyn/Dofetilide
Just spent 2 1/2 day in hospital to get Tikosyn dosage right and get heart back into sinus rhythm. It Worked! I feel great. I using the generic Dofetilide. Much cheaper. I lost 7 1/2 lbs. on the bland meals. I call it "The Hospital Diet". 😊

The optimal healthy ranges of thyroid function defined by the risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality: systematic review+meta-analysis
Not one single mention of T3 (in what is accessible). Comes across as having the potential to increase shoe-horning of individuals into population ranges. diogenes And with that list of names, its implementation will very likely be a [i]fait accompli[/i].

25 years of daily heavy drinking
hi, I have been one of the lucky ones, and I’m not writing this to gloat, I’ve read many of the stories on here about the effects of drinking, and it has been through reading these and re-assessing my own lifestyle that I was able to finally go to the doctor and tell him the truth about my drinking.

Itchy
For more than 11 years ive been suffering with extreme itching anywhere on the body, often different parts at the same time, all those years ago i was told by gp to take antihistamines , loratadine in particular, never been even offered a blood test. I have flare ups where nothing controls the itching

Does anyone have experience of Lenvatinib as a treatment for liver cancer?
I was diagnosed with liver cancer at the end of September last year, 2022. After a scan I was told that I had one large tumour and several smaller ones, that the large tumour was near the main artery and was of a size that ruled out conventional treatment, liver transplant, radiotherapy, embolisation

I have been on Rosuvastatin 5mg now for 16 months, originally started Atorvastatin, which caused too many side effects. In the last few months i had a few nosebleeds, pain in the back of legs, and generally feeling crap, also blood sugar went up again! The first year or so on it was not too bad, but

Cryotherapy
Has anyone tried cryotherapy for PMR? I’d be interested to know as it’s supposed to be reduce inflammation (as well as other benefits) . I am embedded in the football world and the physio of a club suggested it to me saying he thought it might help. Any thoughts?

palpitations
Hello! I have been experiencing palpitations daily (often 24/7) for over two years now. Got multiple electrocardiograms done, a holter test of three days, and tested for thyroid problems. Apparently, it's all anxiety they say. But this is a constant problem. It doesn't go away like....ever. antidepressants
