I was dx with CKD, Phase3, in 2018. GRF stayed between 55-60, I spill protein and have since being dx with diabetes in 2003. In the last 8 months or so, protein in urine has gone way up, as has my potassium. Now trying to stay low potassium, cutting sodium. My question is: I rarely salt my food

Test results
Hi all, Was wondering if anyone could offer advice on my latest test results? I was also being tested for diabetes at the same time so unsure if some of the results are from that test. T3, T4 and TSH all look within normal ranges to me but Sodium and Potassium are out of normal range and don’t know

I haven’t posted in a while, but wanted everyone to know I had my DBS surgery .
It was a lot all at once but so far with the programming everything is going well. Definitely taking less meds.

What if DBS played the same?
“Using computer simulations, Tass and his team discovered that a patterned stimulus that vibrates at a frequency of 100 to 300 hertz (cycles per second) can desynchronize neuron-firing.” I think **desynchronized** may be a poor choice of a word – (Calming the) neuron-firing might be better. Now what

Staying on the Path
After having multiple back surgeries I became extremely inactive afraid to move because of pain. This led to weight gain and I developed diabetes. That was my wake up call. Not being a fan of medication I began following a diabetic diet and through reading I found so much more information that I was

A tip from a fellow panic attacker who thinks can help us ...
Hello all. Today, I had a 74 yr old lady (who suffers from panic attacks) tell me she finally found something that has helped her! I have not tried or done this yet but thought I'd pass it along to my friends to see if they've heard of it, or have tried it before. She drastically reduced the sodium intake

MY DOCTOR SAYS I AM DUE FOR DBS. THIS REALLY SCARED THE SH.......... OUT OF ME. PLEASE HELP! I NEED YOUR ADVICE.
I am a young onset non tremor dominant PWP,in my fifties, on Rytary and I have reached the stage where my medication does not work well like before anymore, a stage where it has become very unpredictable, whether I will get "off" period or dyskinesia, unless I increase my medication dosage. However

DBS - what if, stimulation was a symphony
DBS - What if they played a symphony (Say HFS of 140 Hz and LFS of 70 Hz at the same time), A tone Generator playing at 140 Hz and a second playing at 70 doesn't sound bad, And, for fun a 3rd at 35 (turn volume of 35 Hz down to 18%). But, I am not sure I would want in my head 24/7 !!!!! Back when I was

Electrolytes and postpartum psychosis
Hey!Recently i read an article, where it was explained that lithium is used as a mood stabilizer due to its capacity to have an impact on ionic in-cell balance and also on transportation of ions of sodium and calcium between cells. And that the imbalances of sodium may be one of the causes of depression

DBS and weight gain
For those who have had DBS, did you gain weight after the surgery? I have read it is possible to gain weight as the “ reward or impulsive part” of our brain is affected.
