Feeling sick after HD (advice for my dad)
Hello! My dad (72) has been on HD for two years* now. Lately, he often finds that his blood pressure drops and he feels sick after he's returned home from dialysis, even if he feels okay during treatment. He says the clinic staff watches his BP closely as well as the amount of fluid they're removing

How to control thirst to avoid Fluid overload
Hi Friends My mother is on Maintenance Haemodialysis thrice a week since 4 months. She is now adjusted to this process. As she lives in the tropical country, in the summer season it will be difficult for her to limit the fluid intake. Can any one advice how to control the thirst to limit fluid intake

Magnesium as ozonated magnesium oxides
Hello again. Slow Dragon said that there needs to be 4 hours after T4 or T3 before taking Magnesium. I take magnesium from ozonated magnesium oxides with 3% potassium before bed to help with any constipation that still lingers a little. I asked the company about their product and they said they don't

Unsure how to proceed after flare continues
I wrote awhile back about having a return of PMR symptoms after successfully (over a year and a half) tapering to 5mg and staying on that dose for two months. The weather had gotten a lot colder here in Seattle and I attributed the flare partly to that. I increased my dose to 10mg for a week and had

overdose
I was diagnosed Feb 1 2024. Is it possible to overdose on Co-Beneldopa 200 MG. I take three doses a day [3 x 200 mg]. I try to take them at 8-hour intervals but often screw up, as my memory is so bad. Any side effects of Co-Beneldopa?

Burning pain in thigh
last night I woke with a sharp burning pain in my thigh, it felt like a hot knife. As I went to move my leg it spasms and pain became intense. This lasted for about 20 mins. Even today I still get the odd niggling pain again feeling hot. Does anyone have any ideas ? Thanks

The Queen is here!
Hi all, it's been a while but I'm still going strong đ I didn't look back to see what was up the last time I was here. I am still not on dialysis and I've had my fistula for several months now. It's become so thick and strong. I think it's doing well. I've tried not to worry every day about having to

Road blocks
Hi all,I thought I'd update you all. I went into hospital in the 20/02 to have my second last chemo before the BMT. Upon admission, I had a fever. After 4 days of fevers and a rash from head to toe, the doctors elected to postpone the BMT. So now the search is on to find out what drugs didn't agree

Pericardial effusion
I had taken Prednisone for about three and a half years for PMR and stopped about four months ago. In December a follow up CT scan for something else showed fluid in the pericardial sac. One of the causes listed for this to occur is an auto immune condition. I have never seen anyone on this forum speak

Metaxalone.
I was diagnosed with PMR September 2023 but I'm unable to have steroids. Due to a heart condition I'm also unable to have Immuno suppresants. My Rheumy has now prescribed Metaxalone for pain relief. Reading the side effects I'm not sure I'm happy to take them as they can affect your kidneys and liver

What category of Intermediate Risk Am I?
I am trying to make a decision regarding HT with RT. I am 78. I have CKD 3b, and a solitary kidney. I am 6.5 years in remission from UTUC kidney cancer. A number of papers indicate that HT could be detrimental to my kidney. Those with FIR PCa could avoid HT with little risk. The following is defined
