Is carvedilol making you cold?
I recently had my Carvedilol increased to 6.25mg twice a day. Lately, I am freezing to the bone. I turn my heating up and up and am still cold when everyone else says its like a sauna. I just wondered if anyone else has this? It could also be my recent addition of diabetes medication, Sitagliptin. Never

Doctor doesn't seem to know if I have a problem
My nurse practitioner that I see as my primary doctor has told me multiple times that I do not have kidney problems. However, today she said she will not prescribe me Metformin because it is metabolized in the kidneys. In April, I asked a different nurse practitioner about my eGFR numbers up until 03

ADT and Increased Blood Sugar
Prior to my diagnosis, my morning blood sugar levels were just on the cusp of normal ranging from 99 to 120 each morning. My primary care physician prescribed Metformin, which seemed to reduce or maintain these levels. I have been taking Orgovyx since 9/23 and expect to complete the regimine in early

In the 1970s I had severe anxiety and panic attacks: in the 80s I developed ME which lasted into the 90s; then I started with atrial fibrillation which resulted in waiting for years for a diagnosis - prompted by a very junior nurse saying, [i]'I can't take her blood pressure, her pulse is all over the

raised HbA1c
I told my GP I hadn’t had any bloods done for well over a year when I went regarding a skin problem. She only ordered FBC and HbA1c. Unfortunately no ESR or U&E’s. I’m a bit upset as HbA1c gone up to 50 which puts me in diabetic realm. I try to keep carbs low but ‘could do better’. Just had message

Metformin and clomid
I've just been prescribed metformin to take for 28 days and then clomid on day 2 - 6 of my period. I'm overweight and don't actually meet the criteria for it but it has been 7 years since trying so genuinely think she took pity on me. Has anyone had any success? I'm trying two cycles to see if I ovulate

Hot weather intolerance - pmr, Pred or old age?
In a previous life - pre PMR - I was a real sun worshipper, loving every moment I could spend outside no matter how hot. Mediterranean holidays in the mid 30s were the best days of my life. I now seemed to have turned into my Mother who used to complain it was ‘far too hot’ the minute the temperature

What could be causing weight gain when bloods are optimum?
Hi all, I'd really like to get some advice re my results. I have been on a long journey (26 years) and never been able to tolerate thyroxine. After investigation it was discovered my reverse T3 was high and likely caused by me having the DIO2 variant. About three years ago I went private and absolutely

Blood test timing when insulin dependent
I have been underactive ever since RAI over thirty years ago. Unfortunately, due to poor management of thyroxine dosage (consultant didn't know what he was doing and left me to GP) I gained a lot of weight which just wouldn't shift. So I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and was prescribed Metformin

Development of metformin resistance in PCa cells after long-term treatment
I just came across this article that seems to suggest PC cells develop resistance to metformin after "long term use" which can be reversed by withholding metformin for 30 days: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41392-023-01516-2 Under the Results section: >Metformin resistance was suggested to be associated
