CD19 CAR-T cell therapy for B-ALL achieved remarkable efficacy with a complete remission of 70–90%
This looks interesting but way over my knowledge base. Perhaps some of you super brains can figure this out. In recent years, the increasing advancements and applications of cellular immunotherapy have enabled the use of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy, and it has emerged as an efficacious

A UTI not responding to treatment, ever increasing
LDL
cholesterol and other issues seem to have finally hit home. He is also eating more fruit and veg (he hardly ate them before). The final change is that he has stopped near continuous vaping and gone back to smoking <10 a day.

Now I'm worried
Also on results were the following which she didn't comment on: RBC *5.12 (3.80-4.80) Haemoglobin *15.1 (12-15) Cholesterol 5.5 (3-5) She is too worried about this as
LDL
is 3 (0.00-3.00).

Liver enzyme question.
I also had high
ldl
cholesterol (yet I am an extremely healthy eater, exercise regularly and at the low end of my healthy weight range. So my cholesterol was a little surprising.) I was drinking heavily up until January when I completely quit. Thank you so much in advance for any input.

Naltrexone : for chronic inflammation, Hashimotos, etc
Low dose Naltrexone was introduced to me by one of the wisest ladies I know. Bolt, it is my hope sharing this will be a small way of reciprocating the things you have introduced to me. I think it will be of interest to you. Or maybe you already take it? I haven’t had time to read today but am posting

Blood test results - am I interpreting them correctly?
I managed to get an appointment with a private endo next week, so I did some blood tests. The results are: TSH < 0.01 (range 0.27 - 4.2 mU/L) FT4 14.2 pmol/L (range 12 - 22 pmol/L) FT3 4.6 pmol/L (range 3.1 - 6.8 pmol/L) Cholesterol 5.2 mmol/L (should be <5) HDL 1.57 mmol/L (should be >1.2) non-HDL 3.66

Dr Bredesens Protocol for MSA and LDN
Hi, My father has recently been diagnosed with MSA. I have been looking for therapies or treatments that may be beneficial for him and was wondering if anyone has tried following Dr Bredesens protocol or a ketogenic diet? Also, does anyone have any experience using Low dose Naltrexone for MSA symptoms

The table shows the reduction in

(bad cholesterol) for different statins and doses. Before you ask I am on 40mg Atorvastatin as my student liver (🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺) couldn't cope with 80mg!
