All MDD Patients There Is HOPE: Watch this
I have been through it all with MDD. I can relate to every post in here. I was treatment resistant for a decade. I got Deep brain stimulation surgery last year and am in remission from depression. I would guess it’s FDA approved within a couple of years. The options now if nothing works is to suffer

Effect of thyroid hormones on blood glucose
PART I — I know how thyroid hormones (TH) raise blood glucose. — In liver, TH increases expression of GLUT2 -->increase in both gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis. —In liver, T3 increases gluconeogenesis by increasing activity of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) —the TH stimulated glycogenolysis

T4 / T3 causing significant glucose spike
Despite eating low carb and having normal fasting blood glucose in the morning, I been getting these wicked glucose spikes ***12 hours after my dose of T4 / 6 hours after my first dose of T3*** I can't determine which one is causing it yet, but it's been basically the same two days in a row. I take

FAA Medical Exam and PPL
One of things things I would like to do after I retire is earn a Private Pilot's License (PPL). Is there anybody who has had problems passing the Medical Exam if you have had PD or DBS surgery?

Help with Keto
Hi everyone. I'm Paul from Birmingham. I'm new to this group. Following recent bloods (I have RA) my Rheumatology nurse called me and advised that I was pre diabetic. She told me about a low carb diet and sent me some information to get me started. I was quite alarmed by the diagnosis and decided to

My visit to a new MDS
I had a great 1st visit with a new MDS last week. To be honest, I wasn’t expecting much. To be honest, I am very pleased! The visit lasted over 3 hours one on one. He told me I have no symptoms of MSA or PSP, so he recommended against a DAtScan. He conducted a cognitive exam, found no evidence of

Onset/diagnosis after years
Good morning. I welcome you very warmly. This is my first post. I am not from UK, so my English is poor, sorry for any mistakes. In a nutshell: my aunt got sick in 2012. The diagnosis: Parkinson's. Treatment with levodopa had short-lived effects so doctors decided to use DBS therapy. DBS did not have

struggling with neck pain :( help pls!
I first was diagnosed with fibromyalgia back in 2020 when I started having aches and pains in neck shoulders feeling tired all the time, funny heads as I used to call them, memory issues, stressed all the time and really deflated about everything. I could never relax and always overthink everything.

DBS number of surgeries vary so much from 1 to 3. Main reason surgeons say safer less complications. Is there any proof?
my DBS surgery was completed in one hospital stay. The majority of others was 2-3 hospital stays. Is there research to support that there are less complications?

Can T3 reduce thyroglobulin antibodies?
I was diagnosed in 2018 with Hashimoto's. Had Hypothyroidism since 2002. My thyroglobulin antibodies were over 4000 at diagnosis. Over the years I've slowly managed to reduce them by changing my diet, introducing T3 etc. My last blood test in September 2022 showed slightly elevated T3 levels so since
