Prednisone and Diabetes ...
Has anyone become diabetic from taking prednisone? I am on a low dose, alternating between 5mg and 2.5mg . My recent blood work indicated that I am now pre diabetic. My BMI is 24.5 and I rarely eat complex carbs, never drink alcoholic beverages or carbonate sodas. I am very careful with my diet. I

Hi everyone. I'm Paul from Birmingham. I'm new to this group. Following recent bloods (I have RA) my Rheumatology nurse called me and advised that I was pre diabetic. She told me about a low carb diet and sent me some information to get me started. I was quite alarmed by the diagnosis and decided to

Creatine Clearance while on Edoxaban
I’m sitting in Spain today ( bright sunshine and frost - lovely ) and idly checked my NHS record. I was interested to see on my record that today while I was climbing on a mountain I had had a consultation at my surgery and my Creatine Clearance had been calculated without any notification, without

Potential Potency of Methotrexate taken by Metoject.
Firstly apologies for a convoluted question. I am taking 7.5mg of methotrexate by Metoject, the nurse who instructed me advised that this method could increase the potency significantly as it goes straight into the blood stream rather than being metabolised as tablets are. As my rheumatologist has told

Gaining weight on Progynova
I weighed myself this morning which was a big mistake, I've been feeling bigger and wanted to know if that was reflected on the scale. I've been on 4x 2mg progynova for the past 2+ weeks. I'm hoping it's the meds and its just water retention but maybe my eating hasn't been great! Did anyone else have

Hashimotos Disease and Diabetes type 2
I have recently been diagnosed with diabetes type 2. I’m active, not overweight and eat a very healthy diet. I understand that a side effect of Levothyroxine could possibly be responsible for glucose resistance. Does anyone have any further information? 🦋

Protein in urine
Hello, I’m currently 38+6 weeks pregnant and for the past 3 weeks I have tested positive for protein and blood in my urine. My blood pressure is normal, I have no urine infection and my blood tests came back as normal. I really don’t understand what could be causing this. I have read about pre eclampsia

Intermittent fasting
I am on the O&V program although am now only taking venetoclax (400 mg daily). I am also a type 2 diabetic and am considering doing intermittent fasting. Is that a good idea?

Plant Sterols.
Is it safe to take plant sterols with levothyroxine? I've been told my cholesterol is high, it's 6.1 and my GP wants me to take Statins. I am not happy about this as I feel sure they will upset my IBS so I wondered if plant sterols were compatible with levothyroxine.

Non diabetic hypoglycemia and hypothyroidism
As part of the Zoe Health Test I have a continuous blood glucose monitor for 2 weeks. I'm only on Day 3 of it but It's fascinating! I have had several episodes of below range blood glucose. Most significantly last night from 2am until I had my morning brew with sugar and it's come back into range now

What's in a word?
Health care in the UK has seen a change in the last couple of years. Patients with one or more long term conditions are now asked about their experiences and how they would like to be treated. Carers are also consulted. Well done to all the organisations and Universities that go that extra mile, you
