Hi all Well what a week that was had a ERCP on the transplanted liver graft , which I received pre covid thank goodness in March 2019 So had a stent put in on a narrowed bile duct and to say it hurt is an understatement, they sedated me but the pain was almost unbearable to a degree that I nearly had

Dipyridamole, Adenosine and RLS (Oh My)
Warning, this stuff below is boring. Read only if you have insomnia. I am trying to understand the effects of Dipyridamole and Adenosine in RLS. In reading all the papers, I have been taking notes. It's interesting to me that some of the things I have been reading about are quite common to read

How do you all get your calories on a low protein diet?
My husband is trying to eat as low protein as possible while still eating healthy and getting 2000 calories per day. He's only 142 pounds so he cannot afford to lose weight. We found on Kidney.org that is says to add syrup from canned fruit or to eat candy. We think that that is terrible advice. Anyone

My story
I haven’t been on in awhile but wanted to update everyone. My liver specialist from the liver institute Methodist hospital told me this morning was our last visit unless I needed him again. I retired from ER nursing in 2017 bc I was diagnosed with pbc and possibly nrh according to the pathology report

Weight gain
Hi. Does anyone have any problems with weight gain? I hear a lot about people losing weight but mine just keeps going up! I walk everyday with my dogs and aim to do over 10,000 steps each day. Although I’m not on a strict weight loss diet I do try to eat healthy meals. I have gained a stone since Christmas

Update with Nephrology, Losartan discontinued from my treatment plan
To give an update for today, I talked with Nephrology and losartan was discontinued for now. I was told that hypoglycemia was a rare side effect of the medication so they would like for me to repeat labs in 2-4 weeks. As for my kidney function decreasing, I was told that the increase in BUN and Creatinine

Coming back to the fold
hi all, I was delighted to lose 20 pounds between July - December 2020 as part of this forum and managed to keep most of it off until recently. Now I'm horrified to see I have put half of it back on again and I want to be sure the other half doesn't join it!. I was really successful with LCHF but the

Low carb diet and high dose prednisone
Hi everyone, I am just wondering if the level of prednisone affects whether or not the low carb diet prevents weight gain. I have gca and have been on high dose prednisone for several weeks now . I am still on 50 mg as I am still having some issues with lingering jaw claudication. I see a rheumatologist

Should I take more Questran light
Shall I the more Questran light? I’ve had debilitating IBS my whole adult I’m now 67. I had my gallbladder removed 20 years ago which made my D problem even worse. I’ve been on Questran light for 12 years and it has been a life saver until 2 years ago. My problem is in mornings when I’m in toilet at

Ama positive negative m2
Hi, I am male and have recently received a positive ama, but negative for ama-m2. I had the tests due to elevated AST after taking allouprinol. ALP is normal. I have been referred to a specialist and I am waiting on some tests. I understand ama-m2 is specific to PBC, but what's the likely outcome for

Using Albutrix
I have been using Albutrix for one month. Until I receive my next blood and 24-hour urine test results, I do not know how well it works. I have read the entire book, Stopping Kidney Disease by Lee Hull. It is excellent. I have started to read some of the referenced scientific articles, such as:

Some thoughts on Gluten sensitivity
Gluten, which is found in wheat, may exacerbate Parkinson's-related symptoms in some patients. A brain scan was done on the man that showed abnormalities that were consistent with lower levels of dopamine production, which when combined with the clinical data, led the doctor to diagnose him with PD.

Do I need to tweak my T3 or T4? After feeling so much better hypo symptoms have returned.
Hi After introducing T3(Liothyronine)and reducing my T4 (Levothyroxine) I was feeling great for a couple of weeks. Full of energy and symptom free at last. Then for nearly 2 weeks I had frequent daily episodes of nausea, fatigue, headaches and brain fog. Although the nausea has now subsided I am experiencing
