A Week of Test and Scans (Well, almost)
I had a Heart scan yesterday, a Liver blood test today, and a Liver scan tomorrow. Then I sit back and wait to hear what they say. I never worry about any of it. I get on with my life and do whatever they ask of me. I know very little about my results numbers. I let the consultants, Liver nurses and

Has anyone experienced benefits from coq10
According to the following article Comparing the youngest age people to the oldest, the number of striatal dopamine transporters was cut by 46%, or 6.6% per decade of life.3 The rate of loss of dopamine transporters is accelerated in Parkinson's patients, and this age-related factor may suggest why

An indicator in the blood could guide lupus treatment
A clinical trial (called “BEAT-Lupus”) has found that using a combination of two biologic treatments, rituximab and belimumab, may be more effective than using rituximab alone in patients who have not responded well to other treatment. They also found that people with a particular indicator in their

Vitamin supplements: good or bad?
For 45 years I have taken mega doses of vitamins and other health supplements every day without fail. These include 2000mg vitamin C and 400iu of vitamin E and fish oil capsules. These are supposed to enhance the auto immune system. As rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is caused by an over active immune system

Prophylactics
Hi I have been on Acalabrutinib for two weeks now along with prophylactics, one being Co trimoxazole , which I seemed to react to. I have now been offered Pentamidine, which I have read up on and don’t like the sound of plus it does not sound as if it protects as well. Is anyone else on these drugs

ARTIFICIAL LIVER
Good news , maybe we don’t have to wait for a liver transplant after all. I didn’t realise that machines existed that can carry out the function of the liver, at this stage they are external like kidney dialysis. Would think you have to hooked up permanently as the liver is always working.

WHY HAS CO-PROXAMOL BECOME SO EXPENSIVE?
MHRA have continually protected the identity of the unscrupulous importers until the intervention by the ICO when they finally disclosed all the licenced importers in November 2022.
My first FOI request to MHRA asking MHRA to disclose the names of licensed UK importers of Co-proxamol was 19th

A recently change of my biologic arrived requiring syringe application where previous biologic was via pen applicator which was easy and fine to self administer.Administering the first dose of new biologic was awkward and unpleasant to do with its longer needle and pushing the plunger with a swollen

Ambroxol
Would anyone share if you have participated in a clinical trial using the drug Ambroxol for PD? There have been several clinical trials which have published encouraging resusts, mostly in the UK. I am not formally in a trial but have been duplicating the dosage for about 12 months. My experience is favorable

hepatitis to cirrhosis
Is it possible for an alcoholic to progress to cirrhosis without ever having alcoholic hepatitis? What are the chances of someone who heavily drinks to get cirrhosis without warning signs before it gets to that point?

varices
I was diagnosed with Hep c 2020, now cured but have cirrhosis. Had endoscopy 2 years ago, no varices. my question is how long do they take to develop? Someone I know has tragically just passed away following a massive bleed and I can’t stop worrying now.

Vitamin test results
Hi All I was wondering if I could have some advice on my vitamin test results. I had the test done through Monitor my Health, so no ranges are given, just a graph. I can't access the graphs if I login to MMH on my mobile, and can't work out how to copy the graph on my laptop so I can share it here

GP failed to inform me of Chronic Hep C positive test result for 7 years?
I was diagnosed with Chronic Hep C in 2007 after my GP requested a blood test, as I was suffering with shortness of breath and severe anaemia symptoms. The results came back saying I had "chronic active hepatitis". Now, I would have thought that due to the severity and the fact it was a "Virus" that
