Afib and Bone density supplements
I have had afib for about four years now. My latest bone density test shows osteoporosis. My primary wants me to take Prolia or some other prescription medication. My research indicates "causes arrhyhtmia" as the number one side effect. Clearly a problem for me. I have looked at several bone density

No more appointments
I had an appointment yesterday to discuss results of recent echo. Was seen by a specialist (can’t remember official title) who is a level below cardiologist - apparently does all the ground work and liases with cardiologist. He advised that as well as afib, I now have 2 slightly leaky valves and also

Liver Results - Noone can tell me whats normal
Hi All, I'm generally very healthy (lots of exercise) although since I was approx 23 (I'm now 57) my GGT levels have been elevated to between 58-88. This concerned me a little (didn't really concern my Doc) although my ALT's & AST's have always been within normal range. I do drink quite a bit...but

New to PBC and Urso
Hi, I've recently been diagnosed with PBC, seems not a definitive diagnosis but consultant wanted me to start urso as he thinks it probably is this as ALP and GGT high although biopsy not very specific result and AMA negative.I started urso last week, a bit reluctantly as diagnosis seems a bit unclear

Urso for PBC
Hi everyone I'm fairly new to this group and I've posted a couple of times but have never received any replies so not sure if anyone can see my posts? I posted the following yesterday (since deleted the post as reposting now): I started on Urso 2 months ago for suspected PBC. While liver biopsy didn't

Help with short synacthen test results
I originally posted this on the thyroid section of this site, but there appears to be some good experience of the short synacthen test here too, so I hope this is ok. Quick background, I’m 38 years old, male, and been experiencing pretty debilitating symptoms for about 6 years - fatigue, brain fog,

A Phase 1, Open-Label, Multicenter Study of JANX007 in Subjects With Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer
I have a choice between this trial and a BAT trial. I’m already preferential to BAT, but without being too hasty, I wanted to see if anyone here has any experience with JANX00x before deciding.

Help understanding short synacthen test result
First and foremost, apologies if I’m posting this in the wrong place, but I’ve seen other helpful reasons on this forum about short synacthen tests for adrenal insufficiency, and thought it worth a shot.

APS and Panic Attacks
Hi, I have been living with the diagnosis of APS since 2017 after a mini-stroke in my left eye, which fortunately left no damage. Recently, I switched from aspirin to warfarin after possibly experiencing another mini-stroke, though this hasn't been confirmed by tests. Sometimes, I feel dizzy, short

Metaxalone.
I was diagnosed with PMR September 2023 but I'm unable to have steroids. Due to a heart condition I'm also unable to have Immuno suppresants. My Rheumy has now prescribed Metaxalone for pain relief. Reading the side effects I'm not sure I'm happy to take them as they can affect your kidneys and liver

Hi all I'm going away for 6 weeks to france so I'm stocking up on meds. My question is how long can you go without apixaban in an emergency as I'm on 2 a day. Also on a small dose of bisop once a day. This is my first time away in a year since my stroke last July and a bit nervous 😓 Thank you

levothyroxine
Diagnosed eight weeks ago underactive thyroid even though I had no symptoms. 25mg given and 12 days later reduced to 12.5 as I was so ill. 4 weeks later I was bedridden, severe headaches and unable to urinate so took myself off them as Surgery would not respond. Informed Surgery what I had done they

Fib-4 score 0.66
Hello Everyone, please advise if fib-4 score is same as fibro scan score. Mine is 0.66 or 1 32. I am worried sick about it. It says the score is intermediate. I think I have terry nails, itching and dull pain. Is this mean that I have advanced cirrhosis? My blood test are normal.
