Thankful
My husband had his first chemo treatment of 275ml Docetaxel (Taxotere) on 1/11/24 at 2 pm. Thankfully he has had no bad side effects to it except for flatulence. He has not had to take any pain medication since mid day on 1/11/24. Before that he was having to take Oxycodone 10mg every 4 hours or

Switching to home hemodialysis
Unfortunately my clearance has been falling over the last four months and treatment increase in the amount of
dextrose
has caused me to gain nearly 30 lb.

My bun, pth, potassium all went down and are in range. Calcium in range. Glucose in range. A1C 5.3. the only number that was bad was phosphorous which

Chronic Hashimotos and long term side effects
Hi, I was diagnosed with Hashimotos 41 years ago after 6 years of feeling awful. A locum GP spotted a goitre in my throat as I was talking to him. I have been on 100 mcg of Thyroxine ever since. Now I am 66 . I have always suffered from hypoglycaemia-type symptoms after any type of exercise (even

TAPUR study
Following up on a genomics report (47 pages ! Plus 54 min consult) and came across this study (phase 2 basket trial) in the US. Essentially when exhausting, or before, standard of care options, allows patients to trial off label approved drugs using genomics to identify specific targetable variations

Hydroxyurea Labeling Updated With Information Regarding Interference With continuous glucose monitoring
Important article for those on HU & use continuous glucose monitors. According to the updated labeling, hydroxyurea may falsely elevate sensor glucose results from certain CGM systems. This may lead to hypoglycemia if sensor glucose results are relied upon to dose insulin. https://www.empr.com/

More info on using CGMs (continuous glucose monitors) to see what your diet and exercise does to your blood sugar levels.
This cropped up in a daily reading list and after the discussion about CGMs a few weeks ago I thought you might like to read it too https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/996972?ecd=mkm_ret_231130_mscpmrk_endo_top_content_etid6099069&uac=150045MJ&impID=6099069

I need help. I recently lost my NP that monitored and subscribed my thyroid medication. I don’t have a thyroid. I had it removed in 2002 due to a thyroid nodules that were cancerous. I have taken 120 mg of Armour thyroid for years and a small dose of t3 12mcg. The new prescriber I just saw wants

truly scrumptious
My surgery are doing Blood tests to check for for diabetes, possibly because l am elderly, at 87. My results showed that l did not have diabetes but that l was pre-diabetic. I was rather surprised because l have never been overweight and have a reasonably healthy diet. However l was curious to see if

angioplasty
I am 66 I am going for an angioplasty on the 27th November with the possibility of a stent in LAD. Very nervous. I have had LBBB since in my early 30’s so always got a slight tight chest on hills, i had an angiogram in 2012 and an MRI I was put on Bisoprolol, statins and ramipril after this. Dosage reduced

Real-time measurement of glucose as a proxy for levodopa concentration?
Goud et al. write [1]: "because dose optimization is currently based on patients’ report of symptoms, which are difficult for patients to describe, the management of PD is challenging. We report on a microneedle sensing platform for continuous minimally invasive orthogonal electrochemical monitoring

Continuous glucose monitor
Has anyone tried using a continuous glucose monitor? Or been part of the Zoe project? I'm interested to hear of your findings and whether you found it beneficial. Many thanks.

MAF Work is paying dividends 🙂
Managed a short lunchtime walk after a morning lesson and lunch out . Helps to keep the glucose levels steady, Especially after eating a food with a high Glycemic index. (Insulin responce absolutely normal) And after many weeks of MAF training (Walking and running) I am now noticing that my workouts

CGM - Continuous Glucose Monitors
I’m seeing a lot of advertisements for using CGM for improving health. With the role glucose plays on liver health I wondered if anyone has used these devices to keep track of the impact foods and lifestyle has in their condition. And if so did you find it helpful?

Stress-Mediated Abnormalities in Regional Myocardial Wall Motion in Young Women with a History of Psychological Trauma
Just noticed this - and with Johannes W. Dietrich in particular as an author - it looked very much worth posting about. The title doesn't give much away but it is very much on-topic for thyroid - when you read it. (Mind, I admit I have only managed the abstract for now. :-) ) The idea that this might

Atypical muscle aches?
Hi again everyone, I am really struggling to answer something and am hoping some of you might be able to help. Basically, I am on 7 mg pred, and I have mild muscle soreness in my shoulders and thighs. My rheumys don't not think it is PMR inflammation. They think it's either pred withdrawal, AI, or

Now down to 1/2 mg Pred. Feeling good.
Been on 1/2 for 3 days with no ill effects. Have lots of energy. Seem to have lost the need for prednisone. Still on Methotrexate 12.5 weekly and daily hydroxychloroquine. My glucose levels are back to what they were before PMR. Question is can I reduce Meth? At some point likely won't need any. At
