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

How to improve your blood pressure
I have recently fallen in love. With capillaries. In his brilliant book, ‘The Secret Language of Cells’, Dr John Leif, physician and neuroscientist, dedicates a whole chapter to them, calling these tiny vessels, ‘brain centres’ of tissue development. With a yogic lens, this speaks to the body intelligence

Kidney transplant
I had a kidney transplant nearly 3 years ago. I would like to treat my hair to a wash-in dye, the type that washes after about 6 weeks but I'm not sure this will be OK due to the anti rejection drugs I'm taking. Any advise would be welcome

Post Kidney transplant
My husband had kidney transplant about 3 months ago. Wanted to reach out to you if you had an excessive urination , frequency , urgency and incontinence up to this time. It seems like he urinates most at night I would say what he had drunk during the day ..

hematology oncology appointment tomorrow-stressed
Good evening, Tomorrow is my 15 month kidney transplant anniversary (transplant Nov 16. 2022). My battle with CMV appears to be resolved. My CMV data consistently tests “not detected” now and has for the past 3 months. This has been a major battle. I was CMV- pre transplant but the donor kidney was

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

Hemodialysis question
I did PD from Feb 2023 to July 2023 when it failed and sent me to hospital. In August they put a chest catheter in and I started hemodialysis. After 3 treatments it cleared up the problems I was having on PD. At first I was doing Tues, Thur, and Sat in center for 3 hours and 15 minutes. My kt/V was

Phosphorous questions
I have been on home hemo now for almost four months. My phosphorous has steadily increased. I never had issues with Phos until dialysis. They have put me on Sevelamer binder, which totally cemented me up, when I took two a day. I mean in pain constipation. I backed off to one a day, when they wanted

I’m posting this in hopes it may help other MPN sufferers. In early December, 2023, I saw my longstanding oncologist of 20 years. My labs showed 7.2 hemoglobin I was weak and tired. He sent me to a hematologist at Emory Hospital in Atlanta. The new doctor tested me for my EPO level. Mine barely registered

Kidney transplant assessment
Hi I have stage 5 failure. My GFR IS 10. I had my first kidney transplant in May 1995. This will be my second. I am meeting the transplant surgeon, nephrologist and anaesthetist this Wednesday. They will let me know if I am suitable to go back on the transplant list. I am really really nervous and scared

kidney blood test questions
I just had a routine blood test. I won’t be able to see the doctor for answers until Friday and I’m worried and scared. My eGFR numbers dropped from 95 to 44 in one year. My Creatinine numbers are high and my cholesterol numbers also shot way up. I have no symptoms. Has anyone else had such a change

Imperial College Help please
Hi, further to my last post - thank you all so much - my GP and Renal Consultant are in agreement that I see a rheumatologist as well as continuing to see my renal Consultant. A few people and Vasculitis UK recommended Imperial College as I believe they have a Vasculitis Centre there? I think I've had

cranberry powder?
Has anyone used cranberry powder rather than tablets for uti prevention? I’ve had the all clear for mum to take it but she will struggle with the big tabs so looking for a powder equivalent. I may also go down the D mannose route but as that can cause diarrhoea am holding off…….diarrhoea led to a nasty

Fenofibrates
Someone asked if Dr. Jones' book mentioned the use of fenofibrates.... yes, it does in several places. This might be a good book to have if you are considering using them. He is the leading expert on PBC. Hope it helps... The subject is discussed in the chapter for 'Treatment of PBC'. Many have been

Gods beautiful creations
Last week I was able to ski with a bunch of my grandkids and all my pics were of them. Some days I felt ill but it was so worth it Today I went snowshoeing in a snow storm. What a peaceful serene setting on those snow covered paths nestled in the pines. Even the village where the trail system begins

Prednisone and kidneys
I was diagnosed with PMR in July 2023 and have been on prednisone ever since, although I have tapered down from 15 mg a day to 13 mg, and will be tapering further down to 12 in the next week or so. My last bloodwork showed higher than normal creatinine levels (104), and a glomerular filtration rate of
