Tilt Table Test
Well, on Thursday I had a Tilt Table test and it was positive. My blood pressure rose to 185/110 before taking a nosedive to 80/54 with me on the verge of passing out. My nurse then stopped the test and reclined the table. I am pretty certain that I did not escape Sjogrens with my year on Pegasys. I

Retacrit Shots
I’m posting this in hopes it may help other MPN sufferers. In early December, 2023, I saw my longstanding oncologist of 20 years. My labs showed 7.2 hemoglobin I was weak and tired. He sent me to a hematologist at Emory Hospital in Atlanta. The new doctor tested me for my EPO level. Mine barely registered

taking Urso
I know some of you have already read the comments on the FB page. The subject of taking Urso, even though it causes so many side effects and ‘doesn’t keep me from dying’, has been brought up. I feel in my heart I need to offer my thoughts. I have been taking Urso for over 35 years. I had PBC for 20

Is it possible to build up a tolerance to liothyronine?
I’ve found myself in the midst of an interesting, if somewhat unpleasant accidental experiment these last few days. Having had some issues in obtaining my usual supply of Thybon Henning, I’ve now gone 9 days without medication. This was very much unintentional, and I am aware is not medically advisable

Eliquis
This may be a little long. On June 9, I went to the ER with shortness of breath, a CT scan showed multiple bilateral pulmonary embolisms. The doctor started me on heparin and did a procedure to break up the clots in the lungs (I forgot the name of the procedure) LOTS of blood work was done and the doctor

Latest Private Test
Hi there, I'm still waiting on a telephone app with my GP, but my new private antibody test results have come back. I get these done myself as we know GP's and the Endo situation is pretty poor for most of us, as our symptoms often get dismissed. The last endo appt said I may be at risk of developing

Eliquis
Good Afternoon,I didn't want to hijack Calypso' s post but I also have an enquiry re Eliquis. I recently bit the bullet and as advised by my Cardiologist have started taking Eliquis. I am on PIP - Flecainide and Metropolol. As time has gone on, it's taking longer for me to revert to sinus rhythm.

Which treatment option best for recurrent oligo?
In addition to SBRT for the two mets that make me join the happy recurrent crowd, what would be my best treatment option? I have had no SOC medication for 2.5 years. My T is 4 European scale 110 US scale. 1 Only ADT for seven months. This is what MO recommends, besides SBRT, since stronger/longer

My average jumped and had a couple of concerning results Device is trustworthy Omron I did some gardening

When to take PIP flecainide?
Unfortunately my paroxysmal AF has significantly worsened lately and I am awaiting an ablation. In the meantime my consultant has put me back on flecainide 50mg bi daily plus an additional up to 100mg as PIP if AF kicks in. I’m now in AF almost every week for a few hours. Before it starts I frequently

My Wife had a recent AF episode
My Wife woke up early morning 1am when her heart went into AF (I knew the symptom as I have suffered in the past with this but unrelated to hers) After several hours later a trip to A&E was suggested by 111. NHS were totally brilliant and within two hour was given a cardioversion which put her back into

Coq10/Ubiquinol- is it ok or not ok to take ?
Dad takes coq10 as he also takes low dose statin since many years. I read someone on this Board write this on an earlier post - “I was advised not to take CQ10 since it helps the cancer cell recycle glutathione(GHS). Excess GSH promotes tumor progression, where elevated levels correlate with increased
