Radium 223
Hi there Just wondering does radium 223 act the same as chemo when it comes to xtandi versus abiterone? My hubby has done 6 months of radium 223 while on xtandi and will now have scans in feb. Will he be able to try abiterone now or will he be faced with chemo? I know it might not work for long anyhow

Micro vascular angina
Hello everyone, I have just spent 3 days in hospital due to increasing episodes of chest pain , laboured breathing and palpitations. ECG and bloods were unchanged but they said the angina was unstable. Had an angiogram yesterday which showed all the arteries and previous stents were clear thankfully.

Can’t figure it all out
So my husband went to the hospital today they said his GFR has dropped from 32 about a month ago now it’s 27, his creatinine is 216 umo1/L Sodium 140mmo1/L Potassium 3.9mmo1/L So maybe you could shine more light on it for me. Thank you

Drink more water they said and new shoes
As most of you know I’m a bit of an intermittent runner, I try but fitting running round work isn’t always easy, I admire the people who get up at 5am and run before work but i haven’t managed that so far, I come home from work most days thinking I’ll just go for a short run, walk in the door, Willow

Strange feeling in my chest, could it be Angina.
Sorry for the long post, but here goes. It is now almost 6 months since my heart attack and subsequent CABG x 6. Before my heart attack I felt healthy and presented no symptoms. I am recovering well after been diagnosed with acute CHD and am feeling so much stronger apart from niggles around the sternum

CKD minerals and labs?
Hello. New here and new to ckd. I’m just wondering, with your lab results, when you have high potassium do you also have high everything else? Sodium calcium etc? Asking because my dad has consistently high potassium and low sodium. But right now he’s having mild edema on his legs. Our nephro keeps saying

Salt or no salt
Just after I had 2 stents fitted just over 4 years ago, I was advised to cut salt out of my diet as it was considered that there was enough salt in the food already. Recently had a blood test that reveals that I’m low in sodium. Anyone shed any light on this? Cheers.

Shortness of breath post CABG
Good Morning, I really need some advice. My mum had Quadrupled last December. Over the past 3 weeks she has been experiencing shortness of breath and some pain over shoulder, neck and arm. It's not the angina pain she was getting pre surgery and only experienced some tightness around the chest area when

Spironolactone and sodium
Should doctor monitor kidneys and sodium/potassium levels while taking spironolactone 50mg? If yes how often?

ACR Ratio Confusion
My PCP has issued labs to monitor my kidneys. To date no formal diagnosis. My blood sodium, potassium, creatinine; always in the normal range. My urine pH, Protein, Glucose, Ketones, Erythrocytes, Nitrate, and Leukocytes are also always in the normal range. Two generations of Acute Nephritis in family

Update - ADT with Zytiga Failure (Castration Resistant) after 6 Months (PSA 90.3); Firmagon still Working; PSMA PET Scan Ordered
I came right out of the gate with Gleason 9 Stage 4 Advanced Prostate Cancer with more than 5 Metastases in January of this year. Firmagon brought the Testosterone down to < 7 almost right away, but PSA went to 160. Zytiga and Prednisone were added in March and brought the PSA back down to 5. The PSA

Is there anyone that can further educate me on the combination of POTS, FND, and other medical issues one of my best friends is facing?
One of my best friends is struggling with many medical conditions and has been diagnosed with having POTS, a FND, has what we call “episodes” in the middle of classes and at times will run out of rooms to avoid being made a spectacle of in front of others. They shortest amount of time they usually last

Comments, advice, info, etc
I was dx with CKD, Phase3, in 2018. GRF stayed between 55-60, I spill protein and have since being dx with diabetes in 2003. In the last 8 months or so, protein in urine has gone way up, as has my potassium. Now trying to stay low potassium, cutting sodium. My question is: I rarely salt my food

Test results
Hi all, Was wondering if anyone could offer advice on my latest test results? I was also being tested for diabetes at the same time so unsure if some of the results are from that test. T3, T4 and TSH all look within normal ranges to me but Sodium and Potassium are out of normal range and don’t know

Had text message from GP , hospital wanted me to have a GTN spray until I’ve had more test done etc etc , sent urgently to Chemist . It wasn’t there ………but I can buy one for £4.90 over the counter which I did , but I’m amazed you can buy that over the counter so cheap and people who pay are being charged
