Happy Friday the 13th and in chemo bay #13 now 😁
Hey y'all, Another Cabazitazel session, getting 12 total to put me at 33 chemos in 7 years this July PSA ticked up 0.1 to 2.5 last time 🤔 MO may do PSMA scan and biopsy any large enough lymph nodes, if PSA continues upward. Still on Lupron 3 every months, and doing Intermittent Fast for 16 hrs/day

Another interesting insight from a doctor - this time Dr Nadir Ali at a “low carb down under” conference.
This doctor has realised that the medical profession needs to listen to its knowledgeable patients in order to make progress. Yay!! Here is his first slide. The last word - on the next slide - is “buggy whipped”. For anyone interested in the benefits of a low carb high fat diet, and the reasons why

Recipes for fatty liver?
Hello. My husband was just diagnosed with fatty liver. All the Dr. said was to eat a low fat diet and that it can be reversed. He still has to have a flex scan done and he has an appointment with a dietitian next week. But I was wondering if anyone has some recipes or ideas for food until his appointment

How do you manage(enjoy) your food when you have Hashimoto’s/ hypothyroidism?
Hello everyone, I have been a strict gluten free diet since January. As a result, I feel less bloated. I don ‘t know if it’s the levothyroxine or the gluten free diet but I can eat eggs, garlic ( sorry, I’m French) again. I couldn’t eat eggs or garlic for a few years. It’s still very new for me, I eat

Agitation awaiting liver transplant
My husband and I are constantly arguing over the smallest things. He becomes very agitated and verbally abusive. He has compensated cirrhosis and HCC. He is currently awaiting a liver transplant. Our marriage is in tatters.

Insulin resistance & Fibro
Hi everyone. Did anyone have heard about connection between insulin resistance and fibromyalgia? This leads to the next question: did anyone tried a low carbohydrate diet and seen an improvement in their fibro pains? Thanks 😊

I already have the Gio2 gene from both parents. Also another one from each that makes me prone to certain cancers. So I wonder

Current guesses (borrowed from several articles, papers, and studies). I'm seeing a pattern. Comments?
Over the last few months, I've been noticing some trends, and as I spent another nearly sleepless night reading and watching videos, some of the pieces seem to be fitting together. In short, it seems that more and more theories and studies are focusing on mitochondria. In particular, a "biochemical defect
