Help! I'm on the never-ending train of being diagnosed then undiagnosed with microscopic colitis, diverticulitis and severe BAM
Thank you firstly for reading my article, if you have knowledge to share then thank you for your persistent research and patience. In 2019 I was diagnosed with Microscopic colitis, in 2020 my Gp undiagnosed me as she couldn't see it on the colonoscopy pictures. I'm not educated to any Drs level but is

I'm post-menopausal and a probable endo was found as an incidental. I have no pain or anything so should I have surgery anyway?
I wouldn't have had any idea that I had an issue unless it happened to be found as an incidental on a CT scan. I don't have any pain and the only reason I did have pain is because it was diverticulitis. In the past year I've started to, on occasion when I get up in the middle of the night, have a bit

Vitamin B supplements
I recently posted my iron test results which were on the high side and therefore I didn't need to supplement and if possible I should try to bring my levels down. I am about to start taking Vitamin B supplements based on a Blue Horizon thyroid test. My question is - will B supplements increase my iron

PAIN ALONG PELVIC AREA. Diverticular or IBS C
I was diagnosed with Diverticulitis after having Colonoscopy many years ago. This has been manageable until the last 4 to 5 years. I started to have constant diarrhoea, more like IBS symptoms. No Doctor has ever diagnosed IBS but after a Sigmoidoscopy 3 years ago it was confirmed that it was severe Diverticulitis

another step in the right direction: AI Tool Precisely Matches Cancer Drugs to Patients
"In a proof-of-concept study, researchers at the National Institutes of Health (NIH, Bethesda, MD, US) have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) tool that leverages data from individual tumor cells to predict how well a person's cancer might respond to a specific drug." https://www.labmedica.com

My situation
Hello, I'm a 56 yr old male living in the UK. I'm overweight but I'm a vegetarian, don't smoke and hardly drink alcohol. Last year after going to the doctors with stomach and bowel issues, I had a colonoscopy which was clear. I also had blood tests, and early this year a poo test, which were so OK.

Vitamin B12
In addition to my daily Thyroxine dose of 100mcg I have been prescribed Vit B12, 4000 mcg per day by my Endo. The chemist has dispensed Cyanocominn which I understand is a synthetic Vit B preparation and I am led to believe not a good idea to take. Should I insist the chemist dispenses only natural

Moving on to Provenge/Sipuleucel-t
We met with my husband's onc yesterday to discuss the next move since the 3 years of Abiraraterone/prednisone has run its course. His psa numbers are now around 2.0 (up from a low of .04) and psma scan indicates that bone met volume is quite low. A recent lab biopsy didn't reveal much... The good doc

Afib, sleep apnea and diverticulitis from aerophagia
Hi. I have afib and sleep apnea. As you know, some think that sleep apnea may be a causitive factor in afib. I have been using cpap and bipap machines for some years for the apnea, and have a problem of swallowing air (aerophagia). Before the improvements in cpap technology, I would wake up after a

Blood tests MMA, B12
A conundrum about blood tests: I know that once substituting B12 blood levels are not reliable and that MMS should be tested instead. But if not substituting B12: do high B12 levels mean that there is no deficiency or should MMS and Homocysteine always be the preferred values? (My husband has blood

update on test results
hi all so the doctor rang me and told me to lower my thyroxine down to 150 mg and she said my iron levels were 10 so on the borderline, she didn’t give me any tablets for this so I don’t know if I’m doing the right thing but I’ve bought some ferogloblin capsules with folic acid vitamin b12 and iron thanks

AF and digestive issues

B12 def
I've been B12 deficient for decades. I ended up going back to school and finishing my PhD in both pharmacology and biochemistry and focused my research for 12 years on B12.
