Hi I'm new to this group

I already knew I had fatty liver and the biopsy proved correct. I have since then had gastric bypass surgery to help me lose weight and hopefully help with

Biggest Myths About Type 2 Diabetes Treatment. Are myths about diabetes keeping you from getting the most out of your treatment?
•By Natalia Macrynikola •Reviewed by Clifton Jackness, MD You may have heard that statement after you've aired your complaints about the challenges of managing type 2 diabetes. While it's usually meant well, this type of response is misleading, since it promotes the unfounded idea — the myth —

IPT - Insulin Potentiation Therapy - anyone w experience?
I'm considering IPT - Insulin Potentiation Therapy. 10% of the normal dose of chemo but every week. Not usually any hair loss but perhaps some thinning. It works sort of like a Trojan horse - insulin/sugar opens the cancer cells up and then the chemo kills the cancer. Very targeted and much less

Methotrexate injections?
Hi all Any patient advice about Methotrexate via injection? I'm off to Rheumatology next week. My RA isn't well controlled on 15mg Methotrexate tablets and last time I was seen I was told they prefer their patients to be on injections rather than tablets. I'm not really any better than a year ago before
