Diabetes Type 2, PD and Berberine
Diabetes is a common disease that affects many Americans and 90 to 95% of diabetics have Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). I will be discussing T2DM and one option to help deal with it effectively based on multiple studies. Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) is significantly less common so I will focus this discussion

Brother age 56 in ICU with Covid and has sepsis, is on dialysis and has had an internal bleed in his bowel.. Is this normal for severe Covid
Hi my brother is in ICU now for 2 weeks on Ventilator. He has sepsis, is on dialysis and has had an internal bleed in his bowel.. Is this common in severe Covid? We are terrified as we just don't know if this is what is expected.

Has anyone had kidney problems after heart surgery ?
I underwent surgery for a leaky mitral heart valve in September and unfortunately suffered renal failure which meant I was on dialysis, until my kidneys recovered. Has anyone else had the same experience ?

New here: CKD Stage 2
Hi, I am 32 and just got some blood tests back from my gp and I am really concerned by the results: - high serum creatinine 110 umol/l (gfr at 63) - acr 0.5 g/mol I am really worried about the consequences for my health in general and how it is going to progress. Does it mean I am going to be on dialysis

Keep thinking about how many more years I can live
I know it’s useless to do so, but I just can’t help with it. Especially after I learned that GFR decreases at a rate of 1 every year after the age of 40 even for normal healthy people. ( I’ve been attending Google Medical School recently) I’m 43 years old now and my GFR is 56, although everything is

Hello! My name is Holly, and I’m 4 months post transplant. I’m feeling more energetic and stronger, but my hair is coming out fast. I just ordered a wig, but I’m not sure I’ll ever wear it. I also have kidney failure and do dialysis . They’re trying to get me to move my catheter from my chest to my stomach

LSD acid on Dialysis
My teen is ESRD and has been for two years. He has also struggled with Leukemia, and anxiety/depression. He has a friend that's telling him to use LSD! He's been doing research online and he's convinced he wants to try it... I'm worried sick. I've seen online that acid is metabolized in the liver, so
