Hydroxyurea Labeling Updated With Information Regarding Interference With continuous glucose monitoring
Important article for those on HU & use continuous glucose monitors. According to the updated labeling, hydroxyurea may falsely elevate sensor glucose results from certain CGM systems. This may lead to hypoglycemia if sensor glucose results are relied upon to dose insulin. https://www.empr.com/

Hi all. It has been 3 yrs now since my brother came out of ICU and then to a ward and into a home to clear space in Hospital during Covid.

Sharing here because I can't share open in "real life" and need a bit of an outlet. Also hoping that maybe this will help someone else. One year ago today, I came home from an evening out to discover my husband bent double with excruciating pain. At that time he had drunk heavily most nights for 20 years

B12 vials in Latin stores in the U.S.A.
Hello everyone, Because my doctor only prescribed ONE B12 injection every TWO months, I started self-injecting. At first, I was worried about where and how to buy unprescribed B12. I was lucky to already have a dozen "insulin syringes" with already attached needles. Then, an older Latina lady at work

truly scrumptious
My surgery are doing Blood tests to check for for diabetes, possibly because l am elderly, at 87. My results showed that l did not have diabetes but that l was pre-diabetic. I was rather surprised because l have never been overweight and have a reasonably healthy diet. However l was curious to see if

Low T3 and diabetes risk
I have just read this in depth article on the diabetes U.K. website which clearly states that Low thyroid function is associated with an increased risk of diabetes and pre diabetes. Low T3 increases the risk. The risk is increased even if T3 is low in range. Insulin secretion requires good levels

First Biopsy Experience
I'd like to share my first biopsy experience. This was a transrectal approach and he took 14 cores: 4 cores from a known 1.3 cm long tumor in the peripherial zone that he could clearly see on ultrasound (which matched the location on MRI). He did it "cognitively" because he could easily see the tumor

Follow up to back strain with a chest muscle strain. It never ends.
Hi again folks. You may remember I posted about straining a back muscle and feeling unwell. This happened 16 days ago and last Sunday I was hitching myself up the bed (using arms, not back muscles)and heard something pop in the middle of my chest. Another searing pain and still feeling poorly, not eating

Can a needle be used twice in quick succession?!
I presume not but info from Googling suggests that people do. My rational brain thinks the risk is no different the 2nd time round as it's going through the same skin it's already been through? I have a lot of 0.5ml insulin needles and want to switch from 0.5ml daily to 1ml EOD, and am wondering if I

Upcoming appointment with MDS questions
I have an upcoming appointment with MDS this week and was thinking of asking them about having a Dat scan done along with having my vitamin B and D and also insulin levels checked. Has anyone had these checked before and do you think it is worth it? Also would you have any other questions to ask? Diagnosed

Hi, Ive been Type 2 diabetic since 2005. About two months ago I changed from HumulinM3 insulin to Rapid as well as Long acting insulins. I am in better control of the recent spikes and hypos since the change, and generally feel better. Appetite has increased and I simply inject the fast acting insulin

Endocronologist experience
Hi there, I recently had a top end and very experienced endocrinologist tell me that the 1.6mcg of levo per KG in weight was an old fashioned and outdated theory. Is this the case? I have just upped to 100mcg and was just wondering if I’m on the right dose. He seems to think that’s ok for me.

Sod's Law. Due for colonoscopy this morning, so spent the last 3 days on a white diet, no alcohol, yesterday went through the Moviprep routine to empty bowels, spent all evening on and off toilet, most unpleasant. Got up at 2am this morning for toilet, and guess what, of course, AF suddenly kicked in

more insulin again…
I’m having a bit of burn out at the moment… my levels aren’t where I want to be and I’m very frustrated. I asked my nurse about metformin today as my insulin isn’t having the desired effect. She has just increased my dosage of insulin yet again. I am sick of this. I take sooooo much insulin and I

Perimenopause and sleepy all the time
Hi fellow warriors! I'm seeing a private endocrinologist next week after suffering terrible day time sleepiness for 4 months. GPs have done bloods and can't find anything. I find them pretty useless so asked for a private referral. I'm 46, still have regular periods albeit slightly shorter duration and

To those newly diagnosed! There is hope!
I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in Dec 2018. My form of Parkinson’s has a huge psychological element that many of you can relate to. It’s obvious because of how quickly I progressed while I was getting diagnosed . My Dad who was my best friend and business partner died unexpectedly in 2013, which destroyed
