Macular Degeneration: When Does Dry become Wet?
I do not understand what my Bio is and therefore cannot supply. I have been diagnosed with Macular Generation in both eyes. My mother suffered from Macular Generation so presumably it is genetic but in addition I was a very heavy smoker until 1999. I have been advised that in the event of dramatic

Rituximab and Denosumab
Has anyone had Rituximab for GPA and Denosumab for osterpororis ? What I want to know is are they compatible ? Has anyone experienced side effects? I am so unsure about putting more drugs into my body but I know I need to have the Denosumab as I'm at a high risk for osterpororis Any suggestions ?!

Lutein/Beta Carotene
I've just been researching Marshalllow Root (which is supposed to be good for inflammation) and read that people with Hashis should avoid Lutein and Beta Carotene, but I can't seem to find out why. Can anyone help please?

Mri scan of liver showing "an abnormality suggestive of HCC."
Hi. What does this mean - likely cancer? If not, what else could it be and what treatment would be used. We got told this today by letter, I don't think that is how you should find out such information. My husband is 60 with NASH liver disease, oesophageal varices and subclinical hepatic encephalopathy

Is there anyone like me?????
Hi. I was diagnosed with macular degeneration when I was 15 years old. I am now 46. I have been to several specialist throughput the years and this has always been the diagnosis. Now after reading a reply to someone else's post, I'm starting to think this is not possible. I was told by 1 or 2 of these

Personality change when drinking alcohol
Hubby was diagnosed hep c 20 yrs ago been drinking 90 units alcohol per week. Become very temperamental and aggressive. I am now living away from home. Would mood swings be due to liver disease? He is also very paranoid

End stage liver disease and kidneys failing
It has been a LONG journey with my dad to say the least. He has been an alcoholic for 15 plus years and has survived MANY near death/alcohol related accidents. His last drink was June 1 and his health has declined greatly over the past few months. (It's been declining but this is way worse) It's

Has anybody had the Lucentis injections/treatment for Degeneration etc. I have had 2 retinal vein occlusions that have left me with Mac.Deg. I keep an INR 3-4, having had the 2nd RVO when my INR was over 3.00. However the eye Clinic are not the least concerned about my INR. Perhaps because most people

Out of the woods?
Hello all, I posted recently expressing concerns about the health of my liver following an extended period of heavy drinking. I did experience some symptoms, be they real or imagined but regardless, the extent of my drinking coupled with knowledge that cirrhosis is often asymptomatic in its early stages

Is Hydroxocobalamin im suitable for sub cut?
So I finally got to see my gp following the haematologist appointment last Monday and now have my prescription of Ampoules. They state on the box that they are for Im injection but I would prefer to do sub cut as with everything else going on I am not quite confident that I can relax enough to inject

Wet Macular degenerative disease has begun
I was diagnosed with the dry.form of macular degenerative disease in both eyes at the age of 40. I've eaten right and excercised, taken vitamins for the eyes. Now at 53 Ive started injections of Eylea in both eyes. I'm hoping for the best. God bless us all who suffer from this horrible disease.

Will both eyes be examined after intravenous dye injection?
I have dry AMD in my right eye and wet in my left. Will both eyes be examined when I go for my fluorescein Angiograph next week? I feel that the vision in my right eye is deteriorating too and I am concerned. Also: What is the procedure of my first eye injection in two weeks time. Details please.

A Pickle Can Never Be A Cucumber Again..
Hi there! :) It's me..Kimberly. Lately, and in the past, I have seen some posts mentioning alcohol, alcoholism and heavy drinking. I often respond to those posts and try to offer advice and compassion. But, I thought that I might write a post that could help someone with questions about drinking, or
