Central Hypothroyid & Sleep Apnea
My thyroid tests typically show normal T3/T4 and suppressed TSH, my latest tests: T3: 4.95 (2.63-5.69) T4: 14.65 (9-19) TSH*: 0.05 (0.27-4.2) * Note: my TSH is typically at this level but I have seen it get to normal level ~1 when T4/T3 drop close to lower range. I was also diagnosed with moderate sleep

I am my husband’s care giver and I don’t normally share
Hi I am new to this site and to posting anything anywhere in general, but I have so many questions I thought I would give this a try. My husband has been on dialysis for years and will always be on dialysis. He has many health issues but the most frustrating thing for him is not being able to control

Dealing with probable but undiagnosed sleep apnea
So I got sort of a diagnosis of benign fasciculation syndrome over a year and a half ago, and have been in misery since dealing with it all the time. It basically means random muscles around my body twitch sporadically, sometimes constantly, without stopping. I saw three neurologists and all of them

Creatinine increase
My baseline creatinine was 1.8, but since April it has gone up, and is now at 2.7. Last week I was admitted to my transplant center hospital for 4 days, a biopsy was done that ruled out rejection. I don't think I'm hydrating like I should, but I don't know what's wrong. The surgeon said my kidney

Preparing for a new chapter
Hello everyone, I’m not use to being on forums but I feel so lost and alone, I don’t know who else to turn to. I’m 28 years old and the oldest daughter of my family. We recently found out my mom (52) is at her end stage of renal disease. She just had a catheter inserted to prepare for Peritoneal Dialysis

Why would a kidney with no function hurt?
Hello my boyfriend who is 24 is going to dialysis due to his chronic kidney disease however he is having extreme pain in his kidney and we don’t understand why. Also has anyone experienced trouble breathing or fluid build up in the lungs even if dialysis wasn’t missed and you watched your fluid intake
