Moderate Calcification
Good morning all, I was recently invited for a lung check and have been recalled as the scan showed moderate Calcification. As I like to be proactive and believe this is due to fatty diet, are there any recommendations for menus that will halt (improve?) This condition. My brother dies with this condition

Life Insurance
Hi, I have been diagnosed with cirrhosis of the liver. I'm 54 (f) and live with my 25 year old son (divorced). I've just realised I don't have life insurance (I know!), and wanted to ask if anyone has experience of decent companies who won't rip me off. I'm worried sick about leaving my son with extra

Nose sores
Good morning, Can anyone tell me what you do for nose sores. I've had one at the inside tip for weeks. They come and go but when they come they last for weeks. They've been coming more frequently too. I'm at a loss of how to heal this. I was diagnosed with Lupus SLE, Sjogren's and MCTD. Is it

Shortness of breadth
I had open heart surgery 8 years ago, I used to have AFIB but a valve replacement resolved it so far. I also have sleep apnea and use a cpap. Recently I have been getting up in the middle of the night once or twice to urinate and I am experiencing shortness of breadth. After I urinate it goes away.

Levothyroxine
does anyone know if Levothyroxine is definitely gluten free as I’m coeliac and unsure if it’s not helping with my immune system.

Not impressed
Decided to go through my medical notes such as they are, and blood tests again now I'm more sensible again. All hospital consultations are missed off and consequently diagnoses. Oh, and there is a gp consultation noted that never took place. Basically my notes appear to be a mess. What really

PS to Periodontal Abscess and Prednisone
Thanks to everyone who took the time to reply to my post about gum/tooth infections and prednisone. All the replies were helpful! I did manage to generate one last question.
