Diabetes Type 2, PD and Berberine
Diabetes is a common disease that affects many Americans and 90 to 95% of diabetics have Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). I will be discussing T2DM and one option to help deal with it effectively based on multiple studies. Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) is significantly less common so I will focus this discussion

Brother age 56 in ICU with Covid and has sepsis, is on dialysis and has had an internal bleed in his bowel.. Is this normal for severe Covid
Hi my brother is in ICU now for 2 weeks on Ventilator. He has sepsis, is on dialysis and has had an internal bleed in his bowel.. Is this common in severe Covid? We are terrified as we just don't know if this is what is expected.

Father of son with Iga Nephropathy
My son is almost 44. He suffers from Iga Nephropathy. He received his first peritoneal dialysis treatment last night. He is on transplant list. His wife is accepted to be a donor. Hopefully a paired living donor match soon.

Sleep Apnea and ET/Jak2+
Does anyone else suffer with Sleep Apnea that has ET/Jak+? I have been diagnosed with sleep apnea and been prescribed a CPAP machine and I am resisting using it but wonder now if it is necessary. I have been experiencing great fatigue lately and wonder if the sleep apnea could be the culprit:/

Mad at myself
Late January my bp shot up soon high I had to go to the ER. Labs there showed my eGGS was 22; within a month it went from 22-17-15-13. My nephrologist has explained why. I have an appointment for ultrasound and then vascular surgeon to get fistula. My Dr told me the time to begin dialysis varies

Has anyone had kidney problems after heart surgery ?
I underwent surgery for a leaky mitral heart valve in September and unfortunately suffered renal failure which meant I was on dialysis, until my kidneys recovered. Has anyone else had the same experience ?

I just started home cycler peritoneal dialysis and would like to hear people's experiences with different products. Am considering a dialysis belt instead of daily use of tape, which eventually irritates my skin. What features do you look for in a belt? Have you used a transfer set holder on a neck

Keep thinking about how many more years I can live
I know it’s useless to do so, but I just can’t help with it. Especially after I learned that GFR decreases at a rate of 1 every year after the age of 40 even for normal healthy people. ( I’ve been attending Google Medical School recently) I’m 43 years old now and my GFR is 56, although everything is
