teeth whitening
good morning everyone I don’t know if anyone on here has had any experience with tooth whitening products, only I’ve seen an advert for a tooth whitening powder which I’m very tempted to try, especially as it’s dentist approved and is peroxide-free. I’m just wondering about the Alendronic Acid I’m

Persistent afib
I thought I was okay now I'm in persistent afib ( since September 2022) but looking at the posts from yesterday's health unlocked (estesbubba post) people are saying it's not good to be in persistent afib as it causes the heart to work harder and then become enlarged and that can lead to heart failure

Using Lactulose long term
Does anyone know if it is safe to use Lactulose long term? I have IBS-C and have tried all the other remedies such as kiwis, psyllium, prunes ,linseeds, chia seeds and I drink plenty of water but find they either don’t work or give me terrible griping pains. Although I’d prefer to take a natural product

Hi All. First time on here. I’m currently being worked up at Boston VA hospital for a kidney transplant. Being a veteran, the VA will pay for transplant at a community hospital here in Boston. I’m not sure exactly what to expect… any thoughts? Thanks in advance

Many of us are aware of the risk of tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) when we commence treatment, particularly with venetoclax and that the purpose of the venetoclax ramp-up, is to reduce the risk of TLS occurring. TLS can also occur with other CLL treatments, especially when they are fast acting, rapidly killing

Q10 Supplement
My chiropractor suggested I might benefit from taking a supplement called Q10 gold. The research I did was quite interesting done by Pharma Nord, seems their studies with people with heart problems eg heart failure also CABG mortality rate reduced considerably, also enhanced energy levels etc. My Chiropractor
