Recently Diagnosed with Liver Cirrhosis
Hi All, Unfortunately my father is diagnosed with Liver Cirrhosis 3 weeks back. He is diabetic since last 17 years. He never really had alcohol. Recently during our small family vacation, his legs had swelling - which often appeared during travelling due to legs hanging but disappeared after a night

Sorry for the long post!! I am 53 on Monday, had a total thyroidectomy for Graves in 2004, since then been on 150-200mcg levothyroxine and 10mcg liothyronine.

Sodium Flouride PET/CT Scan Cost
My husband is coming up on his last two rounds of Docetaxel, and then it's time for his follow-up scan to see how well the chemo worked. Well, called to make the appointment, and I was told that Medicare no longer pays for that particular scan. His MO feels it's very important to compare apples-to-apples

Can I give a little hope?
My partner was diagnosed with alcohol-related decompensated cirrhosis in October 2017 after having been rushed to A&E, vomiting blood and not being able to breathe due to severe ascites. The emergency doctor was so concerned about his prognosis that she asked that I contact his daughters to come to

Effective Production of Sorbitol and Mannitol from Sugars Catalyzed by Ni Nanoparticles Supported on Aluminium Hydroxide - Merck & Teva
The recent issues with levothyroxine products that contain mannitol (that from Merck and also at least the UK-version of Teva's levothyroxine) is interesting and deeply concerning. I noticed mention in the French thyroid websites of the presence of nanoparticles of nickel and of aluminium - which is

When food is medicine, what makes a decent snack?
As a patient, I approach NAFLD and NASH with a food as medicine strategy. I believe in the idea that with a damaged organ making it work as little as possible is the only rational plan. For now, let's assume that you are eating a liver friendly diet but what do you do for those in-between times. A snack

How do you treat joint pain?
I’ve been having pretty bad pain in my hands and knees. Besides having CLL, I’m a Type 2 diabetic (though my A1C is near normal). I had joint pain before starting Imbruvica in late December, but recently it has affected more joints. Of course I see my doctors regularly, and take a med for the pain and
