How much internal radiation can a guy take?
I have bone mets in both femures and Ischium. I have read about Radium 223 as well as Lu-177 and AC-225 and variations. Can I start taking these radio pharma drugs with abandon without worrying about accumulated radiation? Should I plunge into the genre asap or wait for the best and safest to be

Week 1 completed
Not aching quite so much now. Seems to be my calve muscle feeling it the most. I’m using the Epsom salts and followed a simple yoga stretching class on you tube before I went out. I’m still not running with ease at this stage. Has anyone repeated week 1 before moving on. Or do I just move

Iron ferritin levels
Hello, My ferritin level is 35 so my doctor has given me ferrous sulphate tablets. 200 mg. take one tablet twice a day. I have been reading on here that ferrous bicglycinate has better results. Would you advise me to continue with the ferrous sulphate, or change to ferrous bicglycinate. Thanks

Sodium Phosphate in frozen turkey.
Have you noticed that sodium phosphate is injected into frozen turkeys? (Maybe not all, but the one I bought did.) It preserves the meat, makes it retain water soo you don't have to baste it, makes the turkey look better, and saves the store money. There should be a warning label on the package, just

Any experience with Armour NDT
So I’ve been unable to purchase Thai NDT for months, and the Endocrinologist put me back into levothyroxine. I did ok on Mercury Pharma in that I was no longer bloated and pumping the weight on BUT I felt very depressed and tearful some days. I have now managed to buy Armour NDT, Does anyone have any

Painful feet with Lupus?
Hello lovely peeps. I was diagnosed with lupus nephritis last week and started cyclophosphamide yesterday. I have noticed this week that when I have a bath it is really painful on my feet, like it is when you submerge a burnt body part in hot water. They then mark up with pin pricks as do my legs though
