Non diabetic hypoglycemia and hypothyroidism
As part of the Zoe Health Test I have a continuous blood glucose monitor for 2 weeks. I'm only on Day 3 of it but It's fascinating! I have had several episodes of below range blood glucose. Most significantly last night from 2am until I had my morning brew with sugar and it's come back into range now

What's in a word?
Health care in the UK has seen a change in the last couple of years. Patients with one or more long term conditions are now asked about their experiences and how they would like to be treated. Carers are also consulted. Well done to all the organisations and Universities that go that extra mile, you

Multivitamins when it’s impractical/not possible to take several a day
I know multivitamins aren’t a good idea but I have an elderly friend who’s elderly sister is in hospital and hasn’t been eating well for four weeks. She’s sleeping all the time and her none-too-young children are exhausted from travelling miles three times a day to feed her I suggested asking her

Low AMH and Metformin (insulin resistance)
Hi all I know Metformin is often used in fertility for people who have PCOS, therefore with a high ovarian reserve. I have had an insulin resistance test recently which showed elevated levels, it has been suggested I take Metformin for it. I have low AMH though and am a little worried about whether

I am better!
Dear Dorset Lady, I developed PMR at New Year 2020. I was put on 15 mg Pred and I have 'stuck to the script' since then. I was warned that I was border line diabetes when I started on the Pred and sure enough, I soon became diabetic, probably because of the steroids. I also had AF (Atrial Fibrillation

Carbs and PMR
I've seen a lot of posts stating the necessity of eliminating carbs from one's diet. Does this mean all carbs, or the simple ones? So many healthy foods are also carbs and make up the majority of my diet - fruits, veggies, whole grains. When I was diagnosed with pre-diabetes I made some dietary changes

Ambroxol
Would anyone share if you have participated in a clinical trial using the drug Ambroxol for PD? There have been several clinical trials which have published encouraging resusts, mostly in the UK. I am not formally in a trial but have been duplicating the dosage for about 12 months. My experience is favorable

Trial of Deferiprone in Parkinson’s Disease (Iron Chelation) Complete: Looks like it made PD worse...
So they completed the Deferiprone trial. I had not heard of the trial, but I had thought iron chelation could be a good avenue to pursue. Maybe iron chelation is still a good avenue, but it looks like this Deferiprone trial was worse than not effective. Sad to say but it looks like the placebo group

Does anyone have any insight on how or if V +O treatment affects insulin sensitivity?
My husband is on V+O treatment, on cycle 7, he also is type 2 diabetic. Ever since starting treatment, he has had to add fast-acting insulin after meals to his regimen. We attributed this to the steroids given during O infusions, but those are now in the past, and he is not able to reduce his A1C and

Do natural supplements work to reduce high cholesterol?
While strictly not a PMR issue I know there are a few whose cholesterol has risen markedly since being diagnosed. I am one of them. I have always had high-ish cholesterol but my last fasting blood test showed everything else perfectly normal but my cholesterol was up. I haven't seen the results

Any tips on raising HDL please? Thanks
Hi Vegan for almost 30 years now, age 52. Latest bloods. Total cholesterol 2.6 (<5) LDL 1.6 (<4) HDL 0.9 (>1.0) Triglycerides 0.6 (<1.8) Non HDL 2.25 Cholesterol/HDL ratio 3.0 (<5) So, all markers are ok except for HDL. I’ve read that vegans tend to have low HDL. Any tips to raise this please

Latest Fish test results??
I just had another Fish test completed due to the fact that the Ibrutinib that I have been on for almost 5 years is not working as well anymore. In my first Fish test many many years ago I was Trisomy 12 .The new report now shows that I have acquired both deletions of 13q and 17p and still have Trisomy

Has anyone tried Glucotrust capsules and is this product from Maximum Edge any good?
A video landed in my inbox from a company promoting this. Long story about how the presenter had discovered the ingredients / formula from a Dr Kumar, at the time living in the States, now back in India. It apparently reversed the man's diabetes. I am naturally cautious, suspicious even. But I see

Raised Creatinine in urine
Hello everyone I was diagnosed with PMR in January and am now down to 4.5mg prednisolone. Having piled on the pounds at first I have been on a low carb diet since March. I do eat quite a bit of meat and a recent urine dip stick test showed raised creatinine. Could this be caused by high protein/low carb

"Honeymoon phase" in Hypothyroidism?
After a diagnosis of type 1 diabetes (an autoimmune condition), there is often a “honeymoon phase” where a small percentage of the pancreatic beta cells continue to produce insulin for a period lasting from a few weeks, several months, to as much as 1-2 years. This honeymoon period continues until the
