High blood pressure...would appreciate input!
I just had my third GP appointment in less than three weeks. I've had high blood pressure for years. It was first discovered back in 2000 when I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's. I was then told it would normalise once my TSH normalised on levothyroxine. However, it never fully has so, back in 2013, I

Blood test results for my Mom. Please may I ask for help reviewing them given her suspected heart attack some weeks back. Thankyou.
May I ask the expertly knowledgeable folk on this site to please assess my mothers recent blood tests results - post a suspected heart attack. We are in a very difficult situation. Our GP practice is deteriorating at a rate of knots! They are drastically short of doctors. The practice has quietly amalgamated

Checkup w/low WBC & Bladder infection
My Oncologists's Assistant saw me today due to a family emergency with my doctor. The Assistant was very nice this time, thank goodness! She was concerned about my bloodwork. Turns out I have a raging bladder infection, my WBC is down to 1, my magnesium and sodium levels are very low and I'm dehydrated

Heat and Blood Pressure
Many of us struggle with the heat tending to feel lethargic and washed out! One problem is that heat causes the blood vessels to expand and combined with your medication you may experience a degree of hypotension. Perspiration can make this worse if you start getting dehydrated. The key is to stay well

ABLATION PLUS 6 MONTHS
Following on from my 3 month post, I am now really happy with the way I have recovered after a patchy first week then a very slow recovery. I still get the odd ectopic which brings me down to earth but apart from that I can get on with my life as normal (though not tried anything sporty yet). Holiday

Epilepsy is controllable
Seizure recurrences are frequent among HIV patients . Long-term anti-epileptic therapy needs to be considered, even after a single seizure. Phenytoin has been the most widely prescribed anti-epileptic drug for these patients, but a significant number of patients are likely to experience undesirable side-effects

New Test Results - With A Question
I just got back my results from my latest urine and renal blood test. I was very happy to see that my creatinine level had dropped from .96 to .87! My BUN is 11. My potassium, calcium, sodium and phosphorus are all within normal limits. However, on 24-hour urine my urine creatinine clearance is low

Thyroxine and treatment of hypothyroidism: seven decades of experience
Why do we have such difficulty in finding endocrinologists who seem to understand? The abstract below seems to explain that wonderfully well. Because there are so many comments to be made, I shall depart from my usual approach and will use footnotes. I couldn't help but hear words such as "smug", "
