LISINOPRIL AND AFIB
Hello all, are there any on this forum taking lisinopril for high blood pressure? I just came across this today and it could explain why I and maybe others have more afib episodes than we should; 1. Caution: High blood pressure/heart disease meds and potassium-rich foods like bananas, potatoes and licorice

Hi! I have been hypothyroid for many years, and until recently I never had problems with my thyroid numbers, or with how I felt on the medication. I was taking a compounded T3/T4 for years, but then moved locations, and accessibility plus costs led me to change to NP Thyroid, which also seemed fine.

Need help finding Diet App for tracking dietary intake
Hi. I have been monitoring my intake but no formal or efficient way to track daily intake: protein, sodium, potassium, calcium, phosphorous, sugar, fat, calories, etc.I also track water intake, which is much easier. I've been writing down what I eat, but this is so time consuming. Does anyone know of

Need advice on dosage of thyroid
My wife has hypothyroidism she is 70 years, have learnt the hard way that getting the correct dosage right is counterintuitive. We live in Somerset, she pays private for Earfa, her current dosage is 30 mg or half 60 mg pill. Just got the results TSH = 2.57. T3 = 4.0. T4 =8.1 Both the T3 ( 3.8

Natural T4 vs synthetic T4
All the experts say there two are essentially the same. But is that definitely the case? Some people (my wife for one) can't tolerate synthetic T4. At present she's T3 only. Just wondering if she might be able to tolerate Armour or other NDT, eg. because the natural thyroxine is bound to a transport

Radium223 has not been a success, is Enzalutamide a good next option?
Stage 4 PCA for last 3 years. Had 6 cycles of Chemo and then Abiraterone for 18+ months (PSA dropped to 0.2 then more recently rose to 58 in June '23 ). Abiraterone eventually stopped working and I was able to join Radium 223 trial. Completed 5 of 6 cycles of Radium 223, then elected to stop since

Is this IBS bit of a weird one.
So since 10th February this year I started with diarrhea only really once a day after about 2 months (april) I made a doctor appointment where they felt my stomach and it was not hard or sore at all, he wanted to do a stool sample and blood sample which I did and it all came back as normal, still having

Atrial natriuretic peptide
So I went on a bit of an adventure. My last episode, while again still thankfully not as intense as previous episodes, had an interesting twist that I hadn't really noticed before. I had to pee 6 times in the space of an hour. So I went searching on the internet as we do, and I learned about atrial

Possible IBS but GP doesn’t know for sure…..
Hi. I’m really stuck with what’s going on with my body and movements. At the end of March I had what I thought was a standard tummy bug, I didn’t think much of it. After 4 days of diarrhoea and not eating (even water was going through) I tried eating a plain piece of bread. Needless to say that didn’

My experience with CKD
I wrote this in a chat and then realized that maybe sharing my experience with everyone, might help someone. So here's my story. I too, have CKD 3A and I also was given the, "ok you have it, see you next time!", from my GP and even from the first nephrologist I went to. It didn't seem right to

best foods to eat after ibs d flare
I’ve suffered from ibs for years and have been well controlled. Have never needed to do FODMAP as yet as know triggers. Anyway I’ve had the worst flare ever in last 5 days and no improvement. Constant diarrhoea. Everything just going straight through. Imodium helps but I need to start trying to eat

Radium-223 + Xtandi?
I’ve been on chemo (cabazitaxel + carboplatin) since Jan 2022 and also on Zometa and Lupron. PSA went from 1.3 in Jan 2023 to 11.7 this month. CT and Bone scans show bone mets somewhat stable but with activity, all bone no soft tissue. PET PSMA earlier this year did not show enough tracer activity

Subclinical thyroid disease for 5 yrs
My thyroid has caused me few obvious problems in that time, other than varying T3 results.Before Xmas, 2022 I had a radionuclear scan which diagnosed toxic nodular goitre. I returned in January '23 to discuss what Endo want to do. Apparently, my choices are RAI or take Carbimazole. The dose was low,
