Glad to have found this group
Hello, and thank you for the add. What follows is my bio, which I am using to explain why I wish to be included in this group. I have questions and no answers.

eGFR is falling
I had my 90 visit with my PCP and the bloodwork dropped from 32 to 31. I have been on Farixga and we had hoped to see an increase not a decrease. I am working on weight loss (down 8 pounds) for a future hip replacement where the doctor wants me at or below 250 pounds. My PCP seems to think this

Wilson’s Disease
Has anyone had their Cerebellar Ataxia re diagnosed as Wilson’s Disease? It’s apparently difficult to diagnose, but the neurological symptoms are similar.

Mindfulness
I have not written for here some time but I have had PMR for about 12 years. When I retired 10 years ago I was under a lot of stress and attended a mindfulness based stress reduction course for 8 weeks. This changed my life! (for the better!). More recently I have been looking at Mindfulness again

Levothyroxine dosing - micrograms per square metre
I keep finding references to dosing levothyroxine based on body surface area. Such as this: [i]The maintenance dose is usually 100 to 150 micrograms per m² of body surface.[/i] (Taken from the documentatian for Orifarm but similar is widely included in Patient Information Leaflets, etc.) And there

PD’s Effect on Vision
“We need to remember that no two cases of Parkinson’s are exactly alike. No matter who you see or know with PD, or what you hear or read about PD, you are not necessarily going to be like that or have happen to you what has happened to them, because you are unique and so is each case of PD.” NANCY F.

Meds after spinal fusion
My fusion was 11 weeks ago and I still need an occasional dose of my prescription medication. I have heard that otc meds such as aleve and ibuprofen can interfere with bone grafting, so I have been avoiding them. Surgeon said the otc's were okay to take at this point but I would rather wait until I
