Here's our story
According to my husband's GP, Urologist and now, Oncologist, he shouldn't be at Stage 4 with multiple metasteses (skull, scapula and ribs). Just this past April (2018), his PSA reached 4, and his GP said that is was going up more quickly than he liked, and suggested we visit a Urologist. The Urologist

Lo Salt and equivalents
Hi, If taking Amlodipine and Candesartan to control high blood pressure, is it OK to take "Lo Salt" (the container says 66% less sodium than regular table, sea and rock salts) or the other low salt equivalents available on the market? I asked the GP but he never heard of it! When I explained what it

Maybe I shouldn’t post OCALIVA side effects. I’m hoping everyone here knows them
MEDICATION GUIDE OCALIVA (o-CAL-eh-vah) (obeticholic acid) tablets What is the most important information I should know about OCALIVA? If you have primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) with advanced cirrhosis, you may need a lower dose of OCALIVA. • Before you start OCALIVA, and during your treatment

BEWARE of CUCUMBERS!
I've posted in other threads about my IBS-D. I've got it mostly under control for the last few months, but yesterday was a baaaaad day. I was feeling fine, being lazy, decided to have a healthy snack of a cucumber with some ranch dressing. Sliced up the whole large cucumber and ate it. All I'd had prior

Plant based diet
Hi All, I have been reading these posts for a while now. I am in stage 4. I’ve been watching my kidneys since I had stones when I was 19, am now 55. My one kidney was only working 50% then. That kidney has shriveled up to nothing. Never had anymore stones. Always just thought it was just the one kidney

Sodium oxybate, thyroid hormone and sleep
Sodium oxybate (which is the sodium salt of gamma-hydroxybutyric acid) is used as a last resort medicine for sleep problems - under expert guidance only. I have just come across a personal report about the interaction between sodium oxybate and levothyroxine. If anyone is interested, I'll post more

What should I do now???!! PLEASE help!!
My dad is still sitting in the hospital in ORMC in Orlando health since LAST Tuesday. His tests have not come back confirming or denying leptomeningeal. They say it’s still a mystery. He looked and talks like he has had a stroke which I’m wondering, however he is not confused and is alert as normal.

DBS for Non-Tremor PD?
Has anyone here with non-tremor dominant PD undergone Deep Brain Stimulation? Did it help w/ balance? Couple of weeks ago, my neurologist suggested DBS to ease the dystonia in my arm and help my balance. This stunned me b/c I had thought that while DBS was good for reducing tremors and dyskinesia

Keto diet
Hi everyone. Just wondering if anyone has tried the keto diet and have you had any improvement with your ITP. Were you able to take the ketones supplements? I know with keto alot of people say use MCT oil but being that it is part coconut oil, it is a natural blood thinner.

Low/falling sodium levels?
One thing the hospital cannot get a handle on since Tuesday is his sodium levels. On 9/7 and 9/27 blood work at Moffitt his sodium level dropped on both to 131 from 139 previously. At the hospital after the seizure his sodium was critically low. His sodium today is 126. Normal is 135 or higher. Below

Advice on Hyperparathyroidism
I wonder if anyone out there can give me some advice please. I started having episodes of palpitations around 2 months ago - with sometimes (I suspect) atrial fibrillation. The worst episodes of atrial fibrillation have taken to to A & E, where it was discovered on the first visit that I had raised calcium

Several important hormones are related to or directly produced by th adrenal gland. Among them are: Cortisol, DHEA & testosterone. I wanna mention a hormone that gets no attention

More On Odd Disorders That Can Cause Anxiety & Depression
This is JEG 325. About a year ago I was diagnosed with Hypokalemia. This is an unexplained loss of potassium resulting in fairly severe symptoms. The average level of potassium should be about 4.5 or so. Anything below 3.6 is considered low, below 2.5 is considered llife threatening. I was at 2.6 when

Memory issues from using Pravacol
I sure hope that there are people on this site that can give me some help or at least hope. I quit Pravacol 2 months ago after taking it for 6 months... Memory issues!!! I was told that by now things would be returning to my normal but they haven't. I have read that possibly COQ 10 may help --- there
