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

Diet changes

Husband in coma cardiac arrest, 20 min anoxic brain injuries. He’s opening eyes but staring at ceiling. No communication.
How long will this stage last? Induced coma 10 days , it’s now 3 weeks , off sedation but on meds for ; seizures and agitation ( sodium valproate) , bp meds, and insulin . He sleeps most of the time and when he wakes it’s for a short while and doesn’t track with his eyes. He looks as if he is in

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.

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

Some More Info on Odd Things That Can Cause or Aggavate Anxiety & Depression
Mornin' all....I'd like to talk about your adrenal glands for a moment. We all know they are the stress defenders of your body. 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

Additional Info On Unknown or Unaddressed Concerns That Can Cause or Aggravate Anxiety & Depression
This is JEG 325 again. Just so you know, my magnesium was also found to be slightly low. My doctor has me on Vit. D, Magnesium Citrate & Time released potassium. What I found out personally is that high sodium intake, low potassium intake & not enough water are more things that aggravate my depression

A delicate balance
Yesterday my husband did some of the cooking apparently he added salt to the food. I gained 3 pounds overnight of water weight. It affected my breathing right away and my hand swelled up really bad. Life is a delicate balance lesson learned. My oxygen levels Are really poor today because of the sodium
