Interference From High-Dose Biotin Intake in Immunoassays for Potentially Time-Critical Analytes by Roche
This paper not only identifies and discusses biotin interference in blood test results - but also suggests specific approaches which can overcome the issue. At the time of posting, the full paper is freely accessible, albeit an Early Release version. That means, it might be updated before a final version

CKD vs Diabetes Eating

Nutritionist told me to ignore diabetes diet, nephrologist told me to follow diabetes diet but dont eat bananas, tomatoes and oranges. So confusing. Eating whatever

Another post on low carb eating - theory and evidence
Well, at last, I'm impressed with the latest NHS diet advice, they've finally changed their tune and caught up with low carbs. As my hbA1c has gone up due to increased doses of Pred my GP is concerned I'm near Pre-diabetic levels. They have given me info on the NHS Healthier You programme and offered

Hi folks Just had my blood test results back and my glucose is down from 41 (pre diabetic) to 35(normal). I am reducing the steroids. I would urge everyone to have the HBA1C test to keep an eye on your levels

Hypertriglyceridaemia and Omega 3 capsules
because I suffer from abnormally high triglycerides the past 10 years or so I have been prescribed a daily dose of Omacor. By courtesy of NICE my GP has now refused to prescribe these capsules any more so I have to buy them myself at £50 a time (compared to £28 that it cost the NHS). For a period of

Pre-diabetes and Diabetes prevention programs.
Hi everyone, Today I had to have an annual blood test at my GP's and I asked the nurse if they had many patients with pre-diabetes and she said they had so many they were running a program as were all health centres. As we have many members with pre-diabetes I think it's worth posting the NHS diabetes

High cholesterol , advice please
I have familial hypercholesterolemia, for years I've been able to control my reading at about 5.2, it's now gone to 7.3, too high. My doctor tells me my old statin can't be increased, so needs to change it to double my prescription to 20 mg. Can you recommend a statin to be taken with prednisolone?

Tingling feet
For many years I have had pins and needles in my feet. Drs haven’t been interested, but lately the feeling has spread up my shins and my hands also tingle. The soles of my feet feel as if they are on fire. Today’s Dr, yet another locum was at a loss. My B12 and D3 are fine, no sign of diabetes. Does
