Abdominal burning pain
Do people suffer with burning pain, a bit like IBS pain, but more constant and burning anywhere across the abdomen. I am still awaiting tests to confirm PA, but I know I have a very high pH, so almost no stomach acid, which is obviously causing the pain. I eat a varied diet, not much in the way of processed

Liver transplant vs kidney transplant
For those who have had both, could you let me know if one was "better" or "worse" than the other? I had my liver transplant Sept 22, and though initially recovering well, had a bout of CMV which went on for a long time, and over the last year struggling with poor kidney function, which is currently

Dialysis or transplantation
Hallo everyone. I want to start form little story. According to my nephrologist I have CKD because of genetical legacy. And it seems to be true. My sister had a similar diagnosis. In her's 23 she went to PD. It was in middle 2000's, local dialysis treatment was not so developed as now. She needed

Update- Moderna Spikevax
Just to update. Received blood result and all within rang with the exception of Lymphocyte count which 3.1 only slightly over range. CPR 4 g/L, ESR 2. Which rules out PMR flare. So onwards and upwards, definitely downwards with Pred.-so pleased. I am now wondering whether the muscle paralysis I had

High stomach pH
I have just done a second gut microbiome test. The first one I did in August last year showed I had a score of 7.2, which indicated I have little stomach acid. The one I have just done has come back higher at 8.1 (ideal range should be 5.8 - 6.5). Does anyone else have this? Is is a good indication

I found myself reflecting on this in relationship to a first residential silent meditation experience, 10 years ago. Offering you space and fodder to consider both and what may call you to the deeper

Hemosiderin staining?
Hi, Has anyone else experienced this? I’ve woken up today with rust like staining, mainly on my left hand with a little on my right. No logical cause from anything I’ve touched. Googling seems to suggest it is hemosiderin staining, though they are mainly US sites. This could make sense as I still

Very worried about Mom
Hello everyone - wish you all a healthy path.My Mother was admitted to the hospital Monday morning and we found out she had urinary infection that went to her kidney and then blood. She had stopped taking venetoclax since Sunday. They are giving her antibiotics but her blood counts are out of whack.

I am reposting in the hope of receiving a response regarding best next steps. Please see my profile for history on my dad's condition.

burning tongue
recently my usual anti inflammatory tablets were not available so they switched me to CELECOXIB. There is a side effect where you can get sores in your mouth. It did seem like I had small ulcers at tip of tongue but my whole mouth burned and the side of my tongue looked bumpy and swollen slightly.

radiation question, possible kidney stones.
my husband had SBRT (prostate, few spots on spine, and one rib) in August and November 2023 with no side effects. He recently had lab work and It showed blood in urine, high protein, and crystals. He had an ultrasound to rule out kidney stones and it showed nothing so he is now scheduled for a Uro CT
