Severe reaction to immunotherapy
Hi My husband has mesothelioma and has been having immunotherapy (Ipilimumab and Nivolumab) every 3 weeks since early January this year. All was going well until last week when he had a severe reaction - diabetic ketoacidosis - and has been in hospital for a week while they try to stabilise his blood

b12 vials multiuse
my doctor prescribed my b12 as multiuse vials and I’m having trouble not bending the needle as I stick it in. I use insulin needles since I injection subcutaneously (it is the most comfortable way of receiving it). I am a little concerned about reusing the same vial multiple times with multiple needles

Fasting Insulin.
The latest Life Extension magazine has a lead article on fasting insulin. With insulin resistance, the pancreas produces increased amounts of insulin (as long as the beta cells hold out.) This is refected in fasting insulin levels. Glucose and A1c may look normal when the above strategy is working

Clinical biomarker-based biological aging and risk of cancer in the UK Biobank
A largely Swedish study using UK data [1]. The only thing that experts agree on concerning the causes of PCA, is that risk increases with chronicological age. The new study used three different calculations of "biological" age, expecting to get a better age measure for the risk of various cancers.

Hey all I have endo. It’s my first IVF round with a private clinic. My first egg retrieval didn’t go so well on the nhs.

Diagnosed Today
Today I have been diagnosed with PCOS. I have been trying to conceive for just under a year with no luck.Prior to this I was on the pill for 15 years from the age of 15 to 30. My biggest regret so far to date! I had a huge outbreak of server cystic acne on my face at 25 and didn't realise but I do now

WEIGHT LOSS SUPPLEMENTS, I.E. "GOLO" (w/Release)
Hey gang! It seems that every time I see an ad or read something about a diet supplement to help to get rid of belly fat or insulin resistant fat, I ask my Transplant Coordinator if I can take it. They always say "no" immediately without checking with the physicians or Pharmacy. They always say 'no'

Hypo weight gain mystery is now finally revealed for me (anyway)
Some great posts here recently covering various aspects of blood sugar levels and hypo condition: -Dawn effect whereby blood sugar tends to rise between 4-8am -Evidence that taking Levo pills provides a spike in blood sugar -Hypo condition anyway leads to slower metabolism and less regulated insulin

5+ months post transplant🙂
I received Cindy, my deceased donor kidney (I’ve named my new kidney Cindy after a dear friend who strongly encouraged me to pursue transplant eligibility testing), on Wed, Nov 16, 2022. So, technically I’m a little more than 5 months post transplant. Regardless, I thought an update might be helpful

Diets
Hi folks, My last drawing I posted of the cat, Casper, he is for a friend of mine… well, I don’t know if she is still a friend or what actually. This friend is vegan and she runs her own vegan eatery/café. I USED to follow the vegan diet. I don’t anymore though and for a very good reason. Around
