IBS, resection surgery and Imodium
I had a bowel resection surgery for a cyst about a year ago. They took 13 inches of my bowel out. Some small and some large intestine. I had IBS D before surgery but seemed to manage it by the way I would eat. Since surgery though it comes and goes way more frequently. I just started trying to use Imodium

Palpatations
Hi everybody. Can anybody please tell me if using my gtn spray is meant to be used to stop palpatations or is it just for pain. With my angina I am troubled more with breathlessness and lots of palpatations and don't know if I am supposed to use spray when the palpatations start. I googled it but can't

CKD at age 39
Hi everyone, so I’m a male at the age of 39, I have CKD. My GFR is 23.4, is there anything I can do to raise my GFR numbers, Lower my Creatinine level? I workout 6 days a week, I’m on a low sodium diet, and only consume around 60-90 grams of protein a day.

Failed Chemo 101
A few weeks ago, I mentioned that I had enrolled in a trial using Docetaxel and Radium 223. Fifteen minutes into the first infusion of Docetaxel, I had a reaction that affected my breathing and dropped my blood pressure and pulse, but cleared after stopping the infusion and then reducing the flow rate

The right doc. makes a world of difference!
I found out that I had CKD stage 3A a little over 2 months ago. I wrote on here and so many of you were really helpful and gave me great advice. Since then, I've been reading, reading, and reading some more. I have myself on a very kidney-friendly diet. Although it still keeps biting in the butt. One
