Metformin changes
Good morning people My hubby has been diabetic for over 10 years. He was put on Metformin, but had trouble initially with diarrhoea and bleeding from his back passage. He was advised that it was to do with the bulking agents used to make the meds and after a few months of trying different brands he found

AICAR is similar to Berberine
Update 6/29/22: Berberine may be neurotoxic. It is off of my stack: https://healthunlocked.com/cure-parkinsons/posts/148177820/finding-some-negatives-on-berberine-i-will-keep-digging ========= So I stumbled across this article while searching on Honokiol: Alpha-synuclein-induced mitochondrial dysfunction

Zytiga vs Xtandi
November of 2020 PSA was noted at 4.5. 6 months later it was 32 then quickly up to 46. Biopsy graded out at GL9. PSMA found metastasis on the sacrum and multiple lymph nodes in pelvic and abdominal area. Started Lupron in October and radiation therapy in January 2022. One oncologist likes Zytiga over

Yet one more Metformin and statins query
Please spare me the guffaws and head shakes for asking once again about the value of these two medications in treating prostate cancer. I ask because I was informed recently that they may be beneficial if one has received radiation treatments particularly. No, my witch doctor did not tell me this.

Metformin gestational diabetes
Hi Anyone taking metformin to control their gd. I'm worried about taking very high doses. Especially when I am trying really hard to control diet and my testing sugar levels are mainly in range. I might have the odd spike in the evening.

Dapagliflozin - any experience?
Hi All, I’ve just been prescribed Dapagliflozin and was wondering what peoples’ experiences with this drug are? My understanding is that it’s only recently been approved for use in heart patients, and is primarily a diabetic drug (I am not diabetic). Anyone got experience with this medication?

How do I choose between treatment for Parkinson's and Diabetes.
I am a Parkinson's patient with Type II diabetes. My Metformin treatment and Trulicity treatment for diabetes is believed to cause problems with my Parkinson's. It's a "catch 22". I also have neuropathy in my legs and feet caused by my diabetes. I cannot afford to stop treating either the Parkinson's
