Having had my first cold since before the pandemic after Christmas, I went off the to the doctors about 10 days ago because although I felt I'd recovered I was deaf in one ear and had sticky eyes. One ear hadn't 'popped' on the flight out or back to the UK and once the cold kicked in it got worse. Currently

Creatine
I am on Ursofalk and very well fortunately. I take Bezafibrate for itch (life saver). I have embark on a fitness journey of Crossfit and after 12 months wish to improve even more. I am advised by my coach to take Creatine and that this is natural and improves performance and muscle recovery. Anyone

Do You Know Your Pulse?
Your heartbeat is the most fundamental rhythm in your life, signalling the regular pumping of your heart as it propels blood carrying oxygen and nutrients to the rest of your body. We take the regular beating completely for granted, never giving it a second thought until the elegant control process

Polymyalgia and Rheumatoid arthritis
I was diagnosed with PMR in June 2014. Over a period of about 7 years I managed to come off prednisone but after a time the PMR returned. Since 2022 I have managed to get down to 7mg daily and then have a flare. Back to 10 down to 8 and another flare. I live in France and it seems PMR is not as common

Selegeline/RBD?
It's often said that all of the treatments currently in use for Parkinson's offer symptomatic relief only, and do not affect underlying pathology. However, a recent study suggests selegeline use impacts white matter microstructure and could be neuroprotective. I know white matter abnormalities have been

Endocrinologist recommendations in/near West Sussex for Addison's / adrenals
Can anybody recommend an endocrinologist in West Sussex or nearby please who knows about adrenals and Addison's? It comes as no surprise to me, but a private blood screen has just shown very low cortisol levels and a couple of other bits, that suggest an adrenal problem, possibly Addison's. I've not

What causes autoimmune diseases?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PpZhLQXp__g I don't often post Youtube videos but I was much impressed by this lecture by Dr Peter Osborne and felt the need to share it. This is quite a long lecture (1 hour 50 mins) by an expert in autoimmune diseases who has rather unconventional views on the subject

Folic Acid does not cause PA
I saw this article with responses about the consumption of folic acid. What do people think about the responses? Especially the one who says that there shouldn't be a limit to the amount of folic acid taken. https://www.bmj.com/content/329/7479/1376/rapid-responses I have been taking 5mg folic acid

Thursday, my husband had his follow-up appointment with Oncologist. I was very alarmed at some of his blood test results. His PSA went up to 1600. Doctor said other blood work was to be expected. I researched surged in PSA and found this, The PSA flare is a well-known phenomenon. The post chemotherapy

xtandi failing?
In September last year my PSA was 0.06. Three months later PSA was 0.09. I asked my doctor if xtandi was failing. He told me not necessarily, once your PSA reached its lowest point, it tends to go up and down before it settles down. He told me they would check my PSA in six weeks, six weeks later
