Prostate Cancer and Statins
My overall cholesterol has recently increased (9.2 mmol/L), although my HDL remains high at 2.88 mmol/L. The jury seems to be out on whether high HDL levels are of benefit in combatting high LDL levels. My GP wants me to go on statins. I had hoped to continue trying to mitigate the high overall and LDL

Tinnitus and hearing loss in one ear - not sure what to do next
Hi, Looking for a bit more information on my own case of tinnitus and hearing loss - and to see if anyone has had any similar experiences. I'm 37 btw - so unlikely to be related to age. Basically this is what's happened below: April 2023 - ear wax blockage in both ears - so used olive oil drops (as

Movicol
Hi everyone I've recently been prescribed this medication due to severe constipation as a side effect of chemotherapy and all the associated drugs that go with it. I already suffer with chronic constipation so I take prucalopride , which now isn't effective alone 😔 my question is how many sachets do

positive occult blood test but no parasites ?
I'm a mid-sixties female with R.A. Constipated until a year ago. Oftentimes in the last year (but not always) my poop looked well-formed but had something that looked like a string coming out the end, up to an inch long. My bowel habits changed a lot a few months ago/much less constipated. A couple

Swollen painful hand
I've had PMR for 2 years. Was started on 40 mg of prednisone. I have slowly gotten down to 13 mg. Recently I tapered to 12 mg but have not felt very well & suddenly my right hand fingers are swollen & very painful. This has never happened before. Is this some kind of flare?

Warfarin - Arterial Calcification
I keep hearing that there is a risk of arterial calcification in the arteries when on Warfarin> Something about the relationship between Vitamin D, Vitamin K and the way Calcium should travel to the bones rather than remain in the blood stream. Now I have been advised to take vitamin D as I seem

Complementary therapies?
I have just come to the end of the chemo radiation and seemingly I now wait about three months before having a PET scan and a fibroscopy to see how effective the treatment has been and what might be the next steps. Just for my own sense of well being I am thinking about trying some complementary therapies

Not impressed
Decided to go through my medical notes such as they are, and blood tests again now I'm more sensible again. All hospital consultations are missed off and consequently diagnoses. Oh, and there is a gp consultation noted that never took place. Basically my notes appear to be a mess. What really
