Rhummy plan in tatters! Update GCA
Well according to the master plan I should be on 10mg starting today. No way is this achievable after hitting the nlggling pain buffers at 15mg never mind the planned 12.5mg 4 weeks ago. Back to 20 /17.5mg & the jaw & head are settling down. Still have burning shoulders, stiff neck & buffalo hump though

Mild Alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency (blood)
Hi, Got my blood results back after switching hospitals and they found this. Is this something to really worry about or just be really cautious as its mild? Cheers

Borderline of diabetes
I think I am in borderline of diabetes as my sugar reading are different in different labs while some result showed normal and in some other diabetes. I bought accucheck and monitor it online. Usually in morning it's below 100 but after two hours of lunch it's around 140-170. How far is accucheck correct
