parietal cell antibody lab results
I’m having trouble interpreting my lab results. My Parietal Cell Antibody IgG value is 33.2 units and it said the standard range is 0.0-24.9 units. So it’s above the standard range but not by much. Apparently above 25 units is positive so that means I’m positive? I just want to confirm.

You are what you breath - but what you breath varies...
[i]MY reason for writing this is one or two people liked my answers about the strange world of breathing. I am not a clinician, nor a scientist so beware taking me literally. However some things are self-evident dear Watson. [/i] We breath in a mixture of oxygen (20%) , nitrogen (79%) and a tiny amount

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

Levo doses and side effects
Hi everyone, I've had hypothyroidism (Hashimotos) for several years now and never felt 'well' that whole time, but at times have been able to cope and others (like now) absolutely can't. It seems to be constant and I wanted some advice/thoughts from what seems to be a very knowledgeable group who can

Allogenic Stem Cell Transplant
I [i]received a Stem cell transplant six months ago. My decision was based on the availability of a suitable donor and being able to get to remission through aggressive chemotherapy. Other treatments had no effect on my rapidly growing leukemia. As of today I’m still in remission, showing 97% chimerism

Bone marrow transplant
Hi, I am being offered a bone marrow transplant and wonder if anyone can offer me positive advice. Obviously the process is quite scary, but would like to think I'm doing the right thing. Thank you George

Has Anyone Tried Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) - for expedited healing from radiation induced bone fractures & unhealing wounds?
I understand that Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) helps tremendously with jaw bone death caused by Xgeva type drugs & radiation induced bone problems. It is FDA approved therapy for radiation induced injuries. There are no contraindications for people with active cancer. I’m considering HBOT (defined

Sharing a recording of a Lung Cancer conference for patients
Hi everyone At the end of October, one of the leading cancer centres in the US held an online conference for cancer patients and carers. It was recorded and you can watch the sessions now. Its a brilliant opportunity to hear lots of specialist doctors talking about treatment options and new research

Alimta and Keytruda causing major fatigue
Hi all. I am so happy to report that after only four treatments of Carboplatin, Alimta, and Keytruda, my scans and blood work up showed tremendous improvement of NSCLC Stage IV — almost NED but I still have a long while to go. My brilliant oncologist is putting me on maintenance of Keytruda and Alimta

Biopsy Results
Even though I've commented on other posts, this is my first. In July I coughed up blood, saw the GP who organised a chest x-ray. The GP called me an hour after the x-ray to tell me I had a 6cm shadow on my right lung and it could be cancer. After meeting a respiratory consultant, I had CT scan, PET scan
