Would a cold producing mucus cause lower blood sodium levels?
My serum sodium came back as 132 (my lab reference range 133-146) when the blood test was taken I was suffering with a bad chesty cold which produced plenty of mucus from nose and chest. I also had drunk 4 glasses of water in the hour before the test and had not eaten as was an early test and food too

All about Arthritis and the Ignored foods that can worsen arthritis
Like several illnesses and diseases, health science has overlooked the accurate causes of arthritis for years. Each of the most important types of arthritis has been revealed to have comparable etiologies. It has also been assumed that Gout arthritis, Rheumatoid arthritis and Osteo arthritis can have

Latest blood test results
Dear all, thank you in advance for this. Any insights appreciated. I have been on levo (5omg) for 5 weeks and will be tested after 6 weeks. However, I have been tested regularly for other things and they have thrown in basic thyroid tests each time, plus I contacted old GP from the first half of this

Increase in GFR after major diet change
I went to University of Michigan at Ann Arbor on Wednesday. Had a complete blood workup. On July 25 I started following "Stopping Kidney Disease" by Lee Hull. After 5 weeks I had lost 8 lbs (BMI < 19) so I had to modify diet. I went to pure vegan meaning I was having beans, lentils and other plant

Intestinal noise
My hellish year with ibs is slowlllly starting to get a bit better by a very volatile but 'dry' diet. I have been taking one imodium a week at 8am which amazingly, along with small amounts of veg and fruit and most carbs has made me very comfortable. Its only after a week my intestines seem to go back

GFR dropping fast!
Hello. I'm a 58 year old woman diagnosed with CKD about 5 years ago. During the last few years I stayed pretty much at stage 3. I had a great nephrologist, then I moved to another state. Admittedly the move hasn't been great and I have gained 7 lbs! But most concerning is my GFR, since June, has dropped

Worried
I posted last week about my husband’s diarrhoea well when we saw the doc it had calmed down a bit and he said he could prescribe Imodium but was concerned that he then became constipated which was worse for him. Well it ramped up again he has been in tears with the pain he has haemorrhage as well so

Sudden daily wetting during school
My 7 year old son has had problems with chronic constipation since the age of 2. He has been on movicol throughout that time and more recently supplemented with sodium picosulphate. He sits on the loo after breakfast and after dinner and at present is free of soiling accidents and does a poo most days

IBS what can u get on prescription?
Hi I'm on universal credit and entitled to free prescription. I have recently been diagnosed with IBS and my doctor not very forth coming. I currently buy galvascon, buscopan, imodium instants and imodium plus. Which is costing me a fair chunk out of my universal credit each month. Can anyone advise

Indapamide
I have recently had blood test which showed very low potassium and high sodium. My GP says can't give me supplements and has stopped Indapamide for a month. (no alternative diuretic given). I had aortic valve replacement January 2018 and am also hypertensive. My Ramipril was reduced post op and also

Bad weekend
So it’s been a bit of a crap weekend here - no pun intended. I went out with friends on Friday night and had an attack before I went - 3/4 loose and urgent BM. Saturday morning I had to go out so I took two Imodium as a precaution in case I needed the toilet. All was fine. Today I’ve been doubled up

Dental problems
Hi all! Well, I hope everyone is on the mend of some sort. Does anyone who wears dentures have problems consuming foods that require chewing? My gums have bone loss and can’t chew hard foods like salads apples and the likes. I’ve had to smash meats and veggies. Drink smoothies with protein and berries
