IVF and diabetes
So I don't know if this will help anyone here, but having been through a few IVF rounds with a few different clinics I thought I'd share what I learned. 1. IVF doctors know pretty much NOTHING about diabetes. Your GP can tell you that your blood sugar levels are perfect but unless they're in normal (

GCA
Hi, another newbie. Had mild pain in temples for around 8 days and been to hospital for bloods. They think could be GCA and have prescribed 50mg steroid which I will get to tomorrow. Biopsy is TBC Bit scared to be honest. I’m 46yr male usually fit and healthy? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated

Is creatine a bad idea?
Hi is it dodgy if I take creatine? I'm early stage one CLL. I've gone on a vegan low-carb diet and my numbers go down each month with it but I've lost some weight. I wonder if taking creatine to boost my muscles is a bad idea. Thank you!

Cost of diabetic care in India.
COST OF ROUTINE DIABETES CARE If you have Diabetes for five years you would have spent around Rs 1,50,000 on diabetes treatment only. After 10 years you would have spent Rs 4,00,000 and after 20 years you would have spent Rs 15,00,000. The increase in cost with time is due to the increase in complications

Anybody ever had more ectopics when supplementing Taurine & L-arginine?
Hey all I currently supplement magnesium (400mg daily), taurine (3-6k mg daily) and L-arginine (3-6k mg daily). I have been doing so now for over 2 years and I feel it's helped to heal my heart and calm down the ectopics I'd been experiencing post-ablation. The problem though, is that I've been experiencing

Eye Tests before and after GCA
Hello all. I developed PMR nearly two years ago and then GCA in February 2018, treated with Pred by infusion. Now down to 7mg / day. I've been reviewed by the eye hospital every 3-4 months and they've never been concerned about what they saw. My last eye test prior to GCA was about 5 years ago, since
