UTI and extra prednisone?
Hi, I’ve just been diagnosed with a UTI. I am currently at 3.75 mg of prednisone after reducing from 4 in the last week. I also just had a blood test and noticed that my C reactive protein count was at 11… slightly above normal values. Not sure if it is a reaction to the infection or that my inflammation

The dilemma of hypoalbuminemia
Hello everyone, I have a history of MPN for many years, I have noticed that my liver protein, total protein, albumin, and prealbumin levels are all frighteningly low in routine medical examinations. I even suspect that my C-reactive protein levels are low even when I am in an inflammatory state. Low

ECT? Keen for peoples lived experiences
I’ve been referred for ECT and keen to hear from people who’ve had the treatment or in the process and how it was/is for you. The overall result - good bad or neutral? If there’s any good or bad things you experienced. Any tips? Would you do it again if needed? Any feedback would be gratefully

Test results. Can you advise please.
After great advice on this forum regarding my thyroid nodules, I requested from my GP surgery the same tests as are provided in the Blue Horizon Golden Thyroid Test. The clinician seemed to want to help and I thought almost everything would be tested. However, these are my results and, as is clear

C-reactive protein
Greetings from northern Canada! I was diagnosed with RA 6 months ago and my CRP was in the 100s. It has gone up and down since then. It was 1.7 last month and I was told I'm in remission. Now it's up to 27.5 again. Does anyone have any experience with this? The inflammation is obviously still in my body

I have PA, all was going well, but now they're trying to mess with my b12 perscipton!!!
Hi all,I'm a long time lurker, but haven't posted myself in a while. About 8 years ago, I was fighting to save my right leg due to bone tumors. 12 surgeries later, I lost that fight. During that time, I started losing weight, tons of anxiety, palpitations ect...This would all be normal reaction to this
