Lutein/Beta Carotene
I've just been researching Marshalllow Root (which is supposed to be good for inflammation) and read that people with Hashis should avoid Lutein and Beta Carotene, but I can't seem to find out why. Can anyone help please?

'Watch and wait'
Hi all I was diagnosed with PV, Jak2+ in 2014. Since then I've just been on aspirin and venesections when needed. Other than that, I'm checked every three months by the haematologist. So, it's basically a policy of 'watch and wait'. Just recently I've been reading a few articles from doctors advising

M.A.S. Multiple Autoimmune Syndrome
Diagnosed with MS in 2000, I injected betaseron then rebif then finally avonex for 9 years. My body began rejecting the interferons, injection sites were even leaking. I had no place left to poke. I then opted to stop treatment and go as healthy natural as I could. I found Charlotte's Web CBD oil

FIRST LINE PV SURVEY
We want to hear patients’ views on a new study for patients with polycythaemia vera (PV). Researchers in the UK have teamed up with those in France to design a study for patients with PV who need a drug to lower their blood count.

Lady DI - I am new to this site .
I was diagnosed with MS 23 years ago. I have had many Exacerbation 's & have used all the Injectable Medications over the years. I can't use Interferons anymore because it gave me Liver Disease. I have even done Novantrone Chemotherapy for 3 1/2 years & had 4 treatments of Tysabri when it first came

Weight gains & chest pains???
Hey guys... :) It's been almost 5 calendar months since I first learned of my MPN, and what has become increasingly disturbing is my weight gain over this period. I have now gained circa 8kg bringing my mass index to 123kg. This is the heaviest weight I have ever experienced in my short life... (57)

Platelets 890, Hcrit 0.49, Low Iron. Treatment options?
I'm posting because I've had a search and can't seem to find many people in a similar situation. I'm only 24, reasonably fit, no other conditions and don't smoke. I used to be in the low risk group but apparently now with high Hcrit and platelets I've been bumped to high risk and they want to start me

This is the first of 3 posts on vitamin D. My sense is that many men with PCa in the U.S. are aware that vitamin D might be useful. Dr. Myers, an early adopter, has spoken of its importance, & the difficulty his patients have in raising levels. (Which implies that he tests patient levels. How many

Foods/Supplements-Vitamins: Vitamin C - Oral
This is the other half of the vitamin C topic. (aka ascorbic acid; ascorbate) Oral vitamin C from food or supplements is mostly not associated with reduced PCa risk. Studies mostly looked at vitamin C intake & the risk of a future PCa diagnosis. Is there benefit after diagnosis? The vitamin C gurus

Et treatment options
Hi All, I am 46 and have ET jak2+ . I was diag 6 years ago and my platelets have stayed around 600-700. Treatment has been low dose aspirin up to now. Unfortunately 3 months ago I had severe chest pain, went to my local A&E and had lots of tests. The blood results indicated potential pulmonary embolism
