Hi all, Today I visited the endocrinologist. This was the second time I went to this one, after getting stuck with previous internists who only were willing to treat upon TSH and FT4. I I'm on 0.1375 levothyroxine and 4 times a day 5 mcg liotyronine. I still have lots of hypo symptons, most problematic

Supplements and blood tests
Hi I am not feeling great and have got myself confused. I am testing Vitamins D, B12 and B9, Magnesium, Selenium, Zinc, Ferritin, Sodium and Calcium tomorrow. I take iron, vitamin d, fish oils, selenium, magnesium, vitamin c. I also take a b complex but stopped this a few days ago as it contains biotin

2019: Will Medicare Cover Parkinson's ?
Here's where we stand as noted by Kirk Hall in his blog www.shakypawsgrampa.com. (Of course who knows what will happen over the next two years with the idiot in the Whitehouse backed by gutless members of the POT). Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a challenging condition as it is, but the fact that it is

DBS hybrid: Medtronic leads with Boston Scientific stimulator
I have had effective control of my motor complaints of dystonia and dyskinesia for 4 years with the standard Medtronic unit implanted in my globus pallidus internus. The battery life has been limited due to the high output of 2.7 &4.8. I managed to get 30 months out of the initial battery but at current

Just found out
Hello. I just found out I have high blood pressure (hypertension level) I guess I have had HBP for a while. It was always on and off and doctors didn’t seem to concerned. I am a female in 30’s. Not over weight and very small frame. I did have a lot of headaches in clusters. Even Tylenol would not get

Persistent sweet taste.....
Hello. I have been experiencing a persistent sweet taste in my mouth for 2 weeks now. I've been checked for diabetes and everything was fine. I'm a bit of a worrier when it come to my health so this is freaking me out. Googling these symptoms says it could be something called SIAHD caused by lung cancer

WP Thyroid warning
So I recently bought WP Thyroid because it apparently only had two inactive ingredients: inulin and medium chain triglycerides. So I received it and took some today, and had a very bad allergic reaction. After reading the instructions it also has lactose monohydrate in it. It doesn’t state this on

Liothyronine Hydrochloride vs Liothyronine Sodium
Have you or any of your members have any experience with Liothyronine Hydrochloride vs Liothyronine Sodium? As I understand it, the UK licensed version of T3 contains sodium and hydrochloride is only used in Henning Thybon, which is the German licensed product. I appear to be allergic to certain fillers

Delaying dialysis
I'm 64, with CKD. Good on sodium and potassium, but high in creatinine at 7.0,GFR around 10. Nephrologist wants to proceed to PD but I have no symptoms (fatigue, edema, nausea, shortness of breath, etc) and feel good. I'm okay with having surgery for access but want to defer dialysis until the ckd

Nephrologist Visit Today - Not Good
I went to the nephrologist and I do not know a thing. He would not comment about my prognosis until he receives results of my US's and labs. I showed him my US report from 2014 where it showed cortical thinning. He did say my kidneys are shrinking, although the report did not reveal the size. I asked

CBD oil for IBS and anxiety - Day 4
I've been wanting to try CBD oil for a while now but wasn't sure where to start. A friend of mine who has Crohn's disease gave me some advice and recommended a website to me where she gets hers. I bought a bottle of Full Spectrum CBD oil (tincture) for about $30 and free shipping. It arrived quickly.

HERBAL SALT SUBSTITUTE RECIPE
I thought I would share this recipe that I found a year ago, when I was first diagnosed with ckd. Helpful with holiday seasoning:

Raised bp and sodium
I have 2 things to ask about. #1: bp Staying up. Running 140 - 150/89-98 My dr recently uped my lisinopril to 20. Worked a week now back up. What could this be. Staying pretty well hydrated (urine light and clear). I think it is going up late afternoon to evenings. How often should I check my bp to
