He woke up one Sunday bright yellow but feeling fine and it took his wife 48 hours to persuade him to go to

Fighting for corrections is so hard.
I am coming up on the one year of my wife's passing. On this day last year, she was sitting in her hospital bed eating frozen fruit. She was at 99% Sat with 1l of O2, and the plan was to turn it off in the morning. LFT's bang on Normal. Indirect Billi is still high, direct normal. Albumin low Plat low

Wellue 24 hr monitor
I've been using the wellue 24 hour monitor for about 6 months it's a very useful device as it is small and you just place it on the left below the collar bone with ECG sticky pads after the 24 hours you upload it to a program that you install on a laptop.I recently had a reading that includes short

Could thyroid be causing the issues ?
I have enclosed my daughters ( age 22 ) last thyroid result panel. Her TSH in June last year was over 6 then swung down to under 2 in September but is on the rise again. Her T3/ T4 are always just above minimum. Her father has Hashimoto’s as did her Grandfather and so does her male cousin. Grandad unfortunately

Can a dialysis patient use protein power?
My protein level is low even with the Pro-Stat the kidney center gives to me, Is it ok to use whey protein powder? i mean in it the potassium is 160 mg per serving, Cholesterol is 55mg. I'm a dialysis person.I'm thinking cutting the per serving to half so to decrease the potassium.

Dealing with an AFib episode without meds.
I was diagnosed with Paroxysmal AFib by an Energency Dept Consultant who ordered certain tests to be done in the future and sent me home with Anticoagulants. I wasn’t given any advice on how to manage an AFib episode or a follow up consultation just a letter to say my test results were OK.A year later

Leg Problems after CABG / Saphenous Vein Harvested
Hi, I had a CABG x 3 about 18 months back (June 2022). During the ops my left saphenous vein was harvested. I had a stroke in the recovery room, however my question is to other folk that have had CABG and vein removal. Do you have any complications with your leg, loss of feeling, feeling heavy,

Underactive thyroid
Hi, my thyroid levels have been up and down recently. I've been on 125mcg and felt fine until the GP decided, after a blood test, to lower the dose. The dosage I need isn't available so I'm now on 100mcg for 5 days and then 112mcg for 2 days. Is this an ok thing to do? Thanks.

PSA holding low after all!!
As I complained a couple of months ago that PSA could be increasing, today the PSA moved a bit down from 0.03 3 months ago to 0.01 today :-), so I needed to write a few words here about my feelings. With a warm-hearted attitude, somehow enthusiastic but foolish too, as these things are never static,

Peripheral artery disease, is it associated with cardiac health?
I am going to contact my GP tomorrow, because I think I might have PAD. I get pain in my calves, sometimes but not always, when I walk. I can just leave the house and my legs are aching. I have also found I just cannot rush and walk faster! Also going upstairs. The stairs bit I think I have had for
