Tainted Blood Sample - Additional Info
Did not anticipate another blood sample error yesterday using hematology clinic lab with the personal touch specifically to avoid errors. Finding the positive, it is good to know that it is not only potassium that can be skewed greatly from a bad/coagulated sample but also protein and liver AST (aspartate

I have had very little assistance from my GP in relation to my Pernicious Anaemia with gastric parietal cell antibodies diagnosis earlier this year. GP reluctantly agreed 5 loading doses but no more than three monthly injections after that, even though I have neurological symptoms. I have been supplementing

ICU recovery nightmare
Was in ICU for 6 days following a seizure due to low sodium (92) due they think to stomach virus though still having investigations for Addisons. 2 ambulances, helicopter , CPR , a stroke originally suspected. No ICU diary kept by hospital , no discharge help, no rehab , no advice on how I would feel

PMR & Stage II Polycystic Kidneys
PCP determined PMR based on my ātinman stiffnessā and bloodwork showing crazy inflammation levels in late January, and started me on 20 mg of prednisone. An ultrasound and xray turned up polycystic kidneys with a too-large to pass stones. Iāve tapered to 15 mg of prednisone at this point, and am wondering

I have tried lots of things none of which resolved things. Currently I take 4 Imodium per day if I have to go anywhere as a precaution, if I try to not take

IBS symptoms?
Hi, Iām hoping someone can give me some advice on my symptoms. I have had bowel issues for a long time (around 20 years) mainly in the form of gas and bloating and cycles of diarrhoea and constipation. The bloating part was the only bit that really got me down, the rest was manageable, so I decided

Sodium n fluid restrictions
How strick do we need to be?. I have been under my permitted limits of both sodium n fluid every day for 7 weeks, but today I'm probably 200ml over my 2ltr fluids. Does a one off day amount without going crazy affect anything major? Whilst on the subject, would one day slightly over the 2g sodium limit.do
