BLOOD RESULTS - HELP PLEASE
GP didn't do a great job of translating. My learned friends can probably do much better: ESR 5.8 CRP 5.0 LDL 3.89 HDL 1.89 TC 6.3 (should the LDL and HDL not add up) Triglycerides 1.48 Glucose 5 My BP is controlled with meds. I do not want to go on a statin. She wants me on one. What do you all think

How do they make decisions. I haven’t had bloods done just had to stop after 2nd infliximab because it caused

Questions about rise in HbA1c
Hi, I started on prednisolone 20mgs on 26th January this year for 4 weeks, tapering 1mg every two weeks, currently on 16mgs (10 mgs am, 6mgs pm). HbA1c last August was 5.5% , result last week was 6% (42.0 mol/mol). My diet has been much the same throughout although I’ve been trying to reduce carbs further

Does reducing blood sugar help?
I am wondering what happens if cll patients just eat foods that cut out sugar spikes? Does that help? I see lots of studies showing that fasting is generally helpful fighting cancer, as is cutting out sugar. So what about with CLL? I know some pple are into fasting here and others not- I was thinking

The things pred does to blood sugar & weight – oh joy…
Apologies in advance to those who may have read a variation on this as a reply to a thread started by Shires123. When I was diagnosed with PMR nearly 4 years ago, I was also about 20kg overweight and I went on a 20gm carbs "keto" diet (based on information on the dietdoctor website recommended by others

HEAL YOUR GUT! (..... many docs say that is WHERE PD comes from)
Many medical researchers and doctors have concluded that PD and other neuro diseases
START IN OUR GUT.
I believe that and that is why for
552 days I have been on the O.M.A.D.
(one meal a day with all calories eaten within a 2 hour window). I've lost about 50 pounds and I feel much better

Research on effect of red light
Not directly thyroid related but it sheds some light on how we might improve our metabolism at the cellular level, which our thyroids should be partaking in. The text is from my Facebook post, so the tone is for a different audience! https://youtu.be/6Win49aeh8A?si=c7sxkdvvzmceR2lN I highly recommend

Alpro Almond Milk..... why do they do this? Any chemists have words of advice?
I stopped having cow's milk sometime ago and have been very happy using Alpro Almond milk instead. It contains Vitamins D2, E, B2 and B12 and calcium as shown in the photo. I noticed today that the packaging had changed and thought to myself "I wonder if anything else has?" So I checked. Yes indeed

why am I so tired
I was diagnosed with GCA in November. I have been reducing Prednisone every 2 weeks. I started on 40mg and I am now on 12.5mg. I have steroid induced diabetis and my readings have been very erratic. They seem to be settling down a bit. I am taking 160mg and 80mg of Gliclazide, I have also been prescribed
