Colistimethate sodium powder for use in a nebuliser mixed with Salbutamol instead of Saline.
Good afternoon all, on a daily basis I take the above powdered inhaled antibiotic (Promixin) through my nebuliser with a saline solution to help with my pseudomonas bugs. The other day I noticed I had ran out of saline so I had to used one of my salbutamol solutions to mix it. Will this have been ok

What are optimal thyroid levels?
Hi, as with many with thyroid problems it feels like we keep hitting a brick wall as goes for finding help. I have had private and blood tests on the NHS to confirm I have Peroxidase antibodies so therefore Hashimoto's. I've had suggested that it may actually be the pituitary that may be the actual issue

High cholesterol or not?
Just had some results back and some readings are showing a red flag. I'm very active and have a healthy low-carb diet. Should I be worried and Contact my gp? This was a private test through benenden. Thanks.

Salt, hypothyroidism, high BP and fluid retention
I have been on blood pressure medication for a few years and although it has lowered my BP (initally 180/105), it´s still borderline high according to GP (never < 130/90 in doctor´s office). I also tend to retain fluid and look puffy. My GP says that is what you´d expect in someone who eats too much

Change in plans - looks like neuroendocrine
From my last post, I had an allergic reaction 15 minutes into my first dose of Docetaxel - part of a clinical trial combining Docetaxel and Xofigo (Radium-223). Two weeks later, I had a second reaction despite additional precautions (oral decadron 3 days prior, IV Benadryl and Decadron immediately prior

Options after Zytiga fails
I've been on the Magnitude clinical trial for 8 months and now Zytiga has failed. I have extensive bone mets (greater than 30). The most recent bone scan shows 5 new mets so I'll be off the trial. I'm in Canada and think my next options are either Radium 223 or chemo. I've had genetic testing and

Cholesterol and Statins
Just had results of Cholesterol test which is 6.2 (up from 4.8 three years ago and pre PMR). Started a low carb diet as soon as prescribed Prednisolone and it has certainly stopped me from gaining. Weight but has meant that I have had to add more fat to my diet for energy. I am guessing that this has

Constipation
Hi everyone , could anyone tell me the amount of sodium picosulfate they give their child please , more so on a maintenance dose. I’m really struggling to find a happy medium for a maintenance dose for my son. We are constantly having to disimpact because he get blocked up whenever I reduce the laxatives

Carbs and inflammation
I had been weirdly regretful that I wasn't suffering from inflammation previously, so I wasn't able to rejoice in it going away with low carb. I have eaten very carby meals on about 4 occasions in the last 18 months, with no apparent side effects. Until last night, when I was sat in front of a plate

Asthma has been rubbish this week :(
Hi all, so on Monday I went to the GP and was given a course of steroids. My oxygen was good and peak flow was ok. But my throat and chest just felt tight. I think the pollen is pretty high at the moment and I'm still struggling to stay of the cigarettes so I know that isn't helping :( Also I suffer

Feelings about FeNo testing
I have read a lot of comments about FeNo testing recently and am very interested to know different viewpoints. My consultant said it was going to become part of the gold standard for testing for asthma and lung inflammation and should be in every surgery. He even thinks eventually we (us with asthma

I was just recently diagnosed, well not even that, I was told my numbers were off and my sodium is low, I've been a type 1 diabetic for over 50 years, I'm just reading on the internet and being frightened and depressed. I've given up dairy and colas and coffee, no small sacrifices! I haven't seen

What aspects of CMP (comprehensive metabolic panel) in my blood should I be most concerned ?
Hello fellow warriors! I had a blood draw today and have some comments and questions. Comment - I am the one to suggest every blood draw to monitor PSA, Testosterone , and other “numbers” that are reported from CMP results. I believe if I did not do this , I would never be asked about this . Is this

Diet - my story so far!
When diagnosed with PMR...within 2 months I was diagnosed prediabetic. I was already overweight from steroids for lung issues a few years ago, and hadn't been able to shift the excess. I went onto the keto diet, while on 15mg steroids. I lost a stone in 7 weeks but as soon as I stopped it it went back

Low carb road in the hole (2)
Just tried subtle badger's idea for toad in the hole as Yorkshire puddings instead. Doubled the quantities and cooked in muffin tins. Made 6 (very) large ones. Surprisingly delicious and felt like a real treat for Sunday dinner. Give them a go!

Treatment for high TSH with high T4
My TSH is too high, but my t4 is also above the normal range. My ft3 is below the normal range. Has anyone in this situation been treated with low dose naltrexone?

Help with bloods please
Good afternoon I wondered if someone could help me interpret my blood results. On 25th March I was tested looking for arthritis but they did a thyroid test and it came back abnormal so a week later I tested again, still abnormal but this time T3 was in range. I was referred to Endo who prescribed
