WOW, noticing today, after some weak days at 5mg prednisone, I am again feeling good and energetic, added meth and hydroxy dropped metformin
I was at 5 a few weeks go, but too hastily dropped and went to 2.5, and on the 3rd day at 2.5 felt terrible. Jumped back to 10 and then 7.5. And since I have gone back to 5, after maybe a week at 5, I am again feeling great, better than I did the last time I was at 5. There are some differences now,

A few questions for the diabetics here that are on insulin.
I'm a t2 diabetic and have been for over 20 years. Mostly I've kept it under control with A1C around 6, give or take a few. This was with metformin. My CKD has progressed to where I had to stop the metformin. My doctor tried a few other meds but they didn't work. A couple of weeks ago I started

5mg prednisone is working now, body feels like it has adapted to the lower dose
Aches and pains are much subdued. I do think I can keep lowering, but I am a little worried about my hands now. As in maybe the small amount of prednisone is helping down the inflammation there. I have had carpel tunnel symptoms for at least 10 years. Now I know I have some OA in the hands from the xrays

A1C level
I called my doctor's office ahead of my Monday appointment to ask what my A1C was. It went from 7.7 to 7.3. I am disappointed that it wasn't lower with the amount of insulin I take. I know I can be better with my diet and exercise. I have been alot better using my CPAP. Disappointed was hoping for

Insulin working differently after cabg
Hi I've had a cabg x4. Before surgery my diabetes was stable using both a slow release and a fast acting insulin. Since the operation the insulin is reacting more strongly to the same foods & I can't seem get a balance without dropping - and whichever medics I ask they have no knowledge of this. I

Another question for the diabetics here that are on insulin.
I've just been put on insulin. I take it before each meal and then a long lasting one before bed. My question is, how do you manage when going out to eat? Do you inject at restaurant? Skip a dose or before or after you get home. Not asking for medical opinions just how do you manage this? It would

Insulin Dosages
Hi, I'm Eccleston and have been treated as a T2 for a number of years now. I quickly progressed to the need for insulin and have concerns that the level of insulin being injected may be well above the average. Is there anyone who would be willing to share their experience please? Current insulin treatment

Been doing great lately, reduced again from 10 to 7.5mg prednisone. My crp is under 10 from 103
I had seen the rheumatologist and had dropped from 12.5 to 10, after the visit. Now for last 2 days I am down to 7.5mg prednisone, my own decision, I am certain he wont mind.... It still feels a little ragged in the AM, but I recover well and feel good all the rest of the day after a few hours. Still

Do you have experince of taking 'Cipro' (ciprofloxacin)?
Hi friends I have a [i]pseudomonas[/i] infection making me feel very unwell. My specialist wants me to take 'Cipro' (ciprofloxacin) tablets. The side-effects sound frightening - especially for a 72 year old. Can you tell me your experiences of taking this medication. The dose my specialist recommnds

forteo terrosa pen
there are few if any videos on administrating a dose of forteo. what's the volume of a single dose? are all the doses stored within the pen? it's it similar to insulin injecting?, because Mum will need to be shown m surely the nurses at the GP's will be able to do demonstrate and do the first shot

Some Good News for Those With HF
I hate the term HF as it is not Failure but an Insufficiency and should be called HI! Anyway I was talking to a fairly elderly gentleman a few days ago. He had a major event at the age of 58 which left him with part of the heart muscle dead and a much reduced EF. These days he takes an array of medication
