Are you on Xtandi (Enzalutamide), and reported the side effects of low sodium?
MO, Primary care, and other nurses are working hard to rollout why my sodium level is low (128) last. My first guess was lactulose. I stopped for one week and will recheck the level and schedule another appointment. Also, a Google search found many users reported that heavy use of lactulose

citalopram sudden withdrawal
i was prescribed 20 mg citalopram by my gp when my husband had a stroke in 2017, due to anxiety. I was recently rushed into Intensive Care for dangerously low sodium levels. Citalopram is one of the drugs causing this, along with omeprazole and ramipril. The hospital immediately stopped these 3 medications

Chronic Hashimotos and long term side effects

Nausea - is it the pred, or something else?
Hello and thank you for the constant flow of useful insights. I know that stomach problems are a known side effect of steroid use, but I couldn’t see anything under nausea in the FAQs - sorry if I’ve missed it. This is my story: I’m 73, PMR diagnosed in summer 2020; since when I have reduced successfully

T3 only and feeling a bit desperate
I have been taking T3 only for a handful of years now and for a couple of them on a LCHF diet I was happy enough. I lost weight, and felt good. In October 2020 I restarted HRT (I still had/have) hot flushes, but within 2 months I had started to gain weight and on balance I thought that I would rather

How much salt is good for an elderly CKD patient?
I just read a reply to a 77 years old lady advising her to keep her salt low. I wonder if it is good advice for an elderly patient according to a study reported in the periodical Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation titled "Predictive effect of salt intake on patient and kidney survival in non-dialysis

lidocaine?
A doctor is recommending I try a lidocaine patch for diagnostic reasons. Does anyone have experience with it or know if it is contraindicated for afib? It is apparently a sodium channel blocker. It is sold over the counter as IcyHot etc. Thank you so much!

Liothyronin T3 and insulin resistance
I’ve been doing some research as my blood sugar levels (measured by HbA1C) have been persistently high despite exercise, low carb diet, weight loss and muscle gain. Prompted by the very wise SlowDragon that T3 can cause high sugars, I decided to delve deeper. I came across a lot of articles online

New results confused
Hi all, I was chatting on here a few days ago worried about blood results and my GP saying I had CKD and had had this for quite a while. I had no idea. Now, this is what I don’t get, two weeks ago I had my kidney bloods done and the results were worrying apparently? The blood test was repeated yesterday

Low Sodium Level
Hello Seeing low sodium levels in blood work, and they believe it is because of the cancer cells. I do take salt tablets and increase salt in food and drink. What's the best way to prove methods of increasing sodium levels? Update : I started Tolvaptan and sodium going up, Dr confirmed

Stage 4 - Soup?
Do any of you in Stage 4 eat Chicken Noodle Soup, etc.? I also have very low BP and have to take Midodrine daily to keep a normal BP. So, the salt in the soup would be helpful. Is the sodium content the only reason they say we shouldn't have too much soup? If BP is low, is it okay to eat? Thanks
