Metabolic Syndrome
One of the things that struck home hard for me at the Neurologists yesterday is he said that studies show that people with metabolic syndrome have a tendency to have their Parkinson's progress faster than those that don't have it. For that reason a healthy life style is of most importance in the treatment

Low Dose Naltrexone for fibromyalgia?
Since the last post on this four years ago, has anyone had success with Low-Dose Naltrexone (LDN) for fibromyalgia? Here in the USA, Stanford University did a study concluding it offers "significant reduction in symptoms" for both Multiple Sclerosis and fibromyalgia patients. It's the same drug as Narcon

Non-PCa Prescription Drugs: Metformin
There are well over three thousand PubMed hits for <cancer metformin>, so I suppose there might be something to the rumor that Metformin has anti-cancer properties. LOL. Bottom line: For someone with PCa, I feel that study [6a] trumps all others. Which is why I increased my daily Metformin dose to

In the process, my LIPID-
LDL

Your Suggestions Please
If you had to make only two recommendations based exclusively on your experience as a T2D then what would that be for the following profile where the goal is to achieve HbA1c below 5.6 (current 6.0) on a sustainable long term basis. PP levels behave great (1/2hr 135/115). Random closer to 100. Fasting

Warfarin skyrocketed my cholesterol levels
After 11 years of having an
LDL
below 130, my
LDL
last week was a shocking 193. I have been taking Warfarin for about 5 months after developing blood clots in my head related to a brain tumor/surgery. I don't see warnings for this in any of the Warfarin literature.
