My protein level is low even with the Pro-Stat the kidney center gives to me, Is it ok to use whey protein powder? i mean in it the potassium is 160 mg per serving, Cholesterol is 55mg. I'm a dialysis person.I'm thinking cutting the per serving to half so to decrease the potassium.

PSA holding low after all!!
As I complained a couple of months ago that PSA could be increasing, today the PSA moved a bit down from 0.03 3 months ago to 0.01 today :-), so I needed to write a few words here about my feelings. With a warm-hearted attitude, somehow enthusiastic but foolish too, as these things are never static,

Dr. Jones' Knowledge
Several times a week I want to share some of Dr. Jones' statements regarding PBC These are all taken from his book [u][i]The Definitive Guide for Patients Who Have Primary Biliary Cholangitis. I [/i][/u]think it's important to share some of the basics of this complicated disease. If you have any questions

Are Functional Motor Symptoms Influenced by Glutamate and Glutamine Fluctuations?
I was reading an old post and someone commented about this, so naturally I asked the question and found this study: https://www.neurologylive.com/view/functional-motor-symptoms-influenced-glutamate-glutamine-fluctuations Interesting reading and saying that the "functional movements" are down to biology

Ablation/S-ICD Recovery Time - why is it taking so long?
Bit of a long one… Hi all, I’m currently recovering from a 4 week hospital stay and struggling with the recovery period. I was admitted for investigation due to a high burden of PVCs which were making me very symptomatic. I had a previous diagnosis of low burden of PVCs, as well as mild dilated cardiomyopathy

We could tell in advance if enzalutamide works on a patient: computational biology
hopefully it will be clinically tested soon ”For the study in Nature Communications, Mitrofanova's team developed computational algorithms to discover why the prostate cancer drug enzalutamide (sold under the brand name Xtandi) never works for some patients and why it eventually stops working in others

Extra steroids?
Having had my first cold since before the pandemic after Christmas, I went off the to the doctors about 10 days ago because although I felt I'd recovered I was deaf in one ear and had sticky eyes. One ear hadn't 'popped' on the flight out or back to the UK and once the cold kicked in it got worse. Currently
