Peritoneal dialysis
I am new to this site, hello! I am 65 years young, have been on peritoneal dialysis for a year and a half. I chose peritoneal over hemodialysis as I feel more normal and not wiped out after treatment. Getting a good night's sleep has been a challenge, seem to wake up every 2-3 hours. Just had to

Too much Methylcobalamine?
I took methylcobalamine 5000 mcg sublingual for about 10 months. Just had my blood tested and found the B-12 level was > 1999 and the normal range is 211-946. Doc said to stop taking methylcobalamine immediately. Stopped 3 weeks ago . I have tingling on both feet. Should I gradually withdraw rather

Update - in case anyone else is in a similar position!
I posted recently that the derm thought I had lichen aureus - well the biopsy results came back and it's granuloma annulare apparently. I've been put on tacrolimus. Wondering if anyone else with hypo has had or tried this? I'll update in a month or so even if no one has, just in case it helps anyone

Calcichew 500mg tablets are different sizes in container...
I have hypoparathyroidism. I've been taking Calcichew 500mg tablets for years. Recently, I discovered my new (latest) container of Calcichew tablets were different sizes. Larger ones (those I'm used to) mixed with smaller tablets. Should I be worried? Family members (on my behalf) went to talk to

Long Term Treatment
Believe it, or not, and it does amaze me.....It's been Twenty Years, since I Collapsed with Vasculitis. I was given or, more correctly, my Mother was told that I had 'Less Than An Hour' to live. I AM aware that it is only due to the skills/care of Surgeons/Doctors, along with my Mother's ceaseless love

A great success by approaching things from the other direction!
