Nitrogen‐Containing Bisphosphonates Are Associated With Reduced Risk of Pneumonia in Patients With Hip Fracture.
A recent study found that nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates (N-BPs) such as alendronate, which are widely used to treat postmenopausal osteoporosis, are linked with lower risks of pneumonia and of dying from pneumonia. The results are published in the Journal of Bone and Mineral Research. The study

Tumeric WITH black pepper
Well an interesting week this has been in many ways but last night as I crawled and pushed myself up the stairs I got to bed and suddenly realised that I was not wheezing. WHY- well after 8months of horrendous wheezing, the odd acid reflux, phlegm and coughs (not all the time) and just feeling awful

Endometrial Cancer- 8 months remission-after 4 years trying
Hi friends, As we all worry and deal with covid-19 pandemic, I thought it would be good to share some success I have been having, mostly because I never expected this much success...even though I remain open to the idea that my cancer can recur. I am in remission about 8 months! My doc always said he

Vaginal dryness at 22?
I’m 22 years old and I have endometriosis and PCOS on both my ovaries. For the past year nearly, I have been suffering with a constant itch around the entrance to my vagina. It’s only on the right side and it is in that specific area every single time. It seems to be much worst at night or first thing

National trial launched to test re-purposing existing drugs to treat COVID-19 patients.
A new trial to prevent organ failure and death in COVID-19 patients has been launched, led by clinicians and scientists in Cambridge and London. TACTIC, as the trial is known, will test whether re-purposing existing drugs, which target the body’s own immune response, can prevent people suffering severe

‘Flu vaccine
I rang my GP to ask if I should get the ‘flu jab - and get a script for it as I do every year - this year because of my recently diagnosed PMF I qualify for free vaccine! Part of me still rebels being labelled as having a ‘chronic illness’ or having ‘reduced immunity’ - part of me says ‘Thanks very much

Tick√ First job of the day completed.
I have just made some Fire Cider. It's a traditional recipe that's supposed to ward off cold and flu symptoms. I have been planning on doing a trial for ages but kept finding a reason not to. But with time on my hands and most of the most often used ingredients available I decided to give it a try. Just

5 months post pneumonia
Hi everyone, I posted on here a while back when I was ill with severe pneumonia. I was hospitalised for a few days. Drs said they’d never seen a pneumonia showing as severe on a ct scan as they had with me. Anyway, I’m much better now. Tiredness is subsiding. However the past couple of weeks I’ve been

Chronic cough
Can anyone please help me or tell what they do or what helps them with a chronic on going cough that won't go away? I live in Colorado, so the climate here is extremely dry. My pulmonary doctor has prescribed a few different inhalers. But none have helped with my cough. It tends to get much worse at

Thrush or skin condition?
Hello, I’ve suffered from thrush for years now and recently had another positive swab. My GP has prescribed a double dose tablet to take every week for 3 months to try and clear it but I’ve seen no improvement yet (it’s been 4 weeks) and the itching is driving me mad. I just wondered if anyone else

A paper showing preferences for NDT (DTE)
This paper interested me as it was observational rather than a formal trial. It shows that some people (would you believe it) get benefits form NDT despite the alleged contraindications. At least someone is looking at this albeit in a rather haphazard fashion. However note the obscure journal it was

The median hospital stay was 9 days for patients treated
