frequency and coverage of lab work
My 65 y.o. husband was diagnosed with CKD 6 months ago with a calculated GFR of 53. We immediately changed his diet to very low sodium, potassium and phospherous, and limited protein. In January (3 Mos. later) his PCP ordered lab work (blood and urine). There was very little change. Here it is 3 more

cirrhosis and edema / ascites
My partner diagnosed 22.12.21 with alcoholic cirrhosis stopped drinking on that date. Since then has been having 3 weekly drains and wasn't able to have diuretics due to low sodium. Was hospitalised last Friday due to extreme edema in feet, legs and scrotum. Has been on IV diuretics as sodium now OK

Not so quick visit to Cardiac Suite
Hi all, Very relieved to be back home after a 'visit' to the cardiac suite yesterday. First time I've needed to use my GTN spray, since my STEMI in February and my 7 stents and unfortunately having used up my max uses, needed to call the 9's! Luckily all was fine, usual ECG, Troponin blood test,

Thyroid Hormone Transporters in a Human Placental Cell Model
There has long been the received wisdom that T3 does not cross the placenta. I am not aware this has been proved in any level of detail. This paper appears to make that look wrong. Indeed, it appears to identify specific pharmaceutical agents which directly and significantly affect T3 transport

edema - in testicles
We are waiting on a call back from the hospital. Partners edema getting worse by the day, now throughout legs and feet and testicles. He is in so much discomfort it is breaking my heart. He had to stop diuretics due to low sodium but last bloods showed sodium at normal (lowest end of normal) level

A List of Screening Tests For A High PSA
A 73 year old friend had a PSA test that came back @ 50 . He is not afraid, is cool and analytical. He can afford to have any out of pocket testing and treatment . He wants to understand the status of his prostate cancer before having any treatment. He is asking if there is a list of screening tests

Husbands collapse
Well I've just visited my husband again and the Dr says that his confused state may improve once I get him back to my daughters. She doesn't know if it will ease and she's not sure if it was caused by the sodium drop or something else going on. His blood tests aren't back from yesterday, but they're

Unusual angina
I've had angina for years, always as lower jaw pain on physical stress. A few days ago I suddenly developed the jaw pain which extended up into my facial bones and was accompanied by the feeling that someone had dropped a lump of lead on my chest with a surge of pressure up my throat into my jaw.
