Wife's bp over 400!
My wife's a former professional bodybuilder . She had to retire due to her malignant hypertension. Her pressure is usually around 210/140. During a recent research study on hypertensive female bodybuilders and the effect of heavy weight lifting on blood pressure. My wife's pressure at 80% maximum load

IMRT denied final time today + Abraxane, Carboplatin, Keytruda question
I figured I would do a brand new update post in one spot. To update on my dad’s insurance denial, the external review for IMRT on his chest tumor that is wrapped around the SVC of his heart was denied today as well. This was the final appeal we had and now have no more. To say I feel defeated is an understatement

LCHF could be a boon for Diabetes if practised scientifically, but beginners may face a challenge if he is a vegetarian !
As a T2, You feel great with LCHF diet - thanks to this forum, you keep getting tips from the veterans to overcome the initial hurdles. It is a science - now getting recognised all over as a solution for obesity and diabetes. Once you undetstand the science and practice LCHF, you don't feel like

Raynaud’s Disease and Keto Diet update
I’ve been experimenting with deliberately challenging myself with low temperatures . This morning I walked 10 minutes to the local shop for some eggs, wearing short sleeves and no hat (and no hair!) in 11C. The walk back was COLD as I got soaked by steady rain with a temperature of probably 5C or less

High blood pressure after ablation
I am new here. I had my ablation 5 days ago and my blood pressure started to go up two days ago. I still take the same bp meds as before, and they have added colchicine, pepcid and famotadine to the mix. Could any of those be causing an increase in my bp? It was normal when I left the hospital.

Insurance denied IMRT!
Has anyone ever been denied IMRT by insurance?! It has now been several weeks since we found out my dad’s tumor pressing on his heart is no longer stable and is slowly enlarging. So far from 4.2 to 4.9 cm but that was several weeks ago and could be changed by now. He has a 5 inch blood clot because

HDL cholesterol low. What does this mean?
Hi, I am not sure if I’m in the right group but here goes. I’ve been having blood tests for different reasons and today I asked for a print out. So I have received that today and it states Serum HDL cholesterol level 1.2 ‘LOW’ I have no idea what this is or what this means as the doctor haven’t said

What is it about pregablin?
Well my heading says it all, if I had known and surely if drs hadn't been so blind or oblivious to the side effects, and the withdrawals surely such a drug would never have been introduced to us with anxiety, ok I read with pain it seems to help but u guys still also ensure the side effects and withdrawals

9 Healthy Nuts That Are Low in Carbs
Nuts are known for being high in healthy fats and plant-based protein while being low in carbs. Therefore, most nuts can fit into a low-carb eating plan, though certain kinds are particularly low in carbs. For those following stricter low-carb diets like the ketogenic diet, sticking to lower-carb nuts

Greetings to all of You Lot who, for better or worse, follow my Ramblings (and occasional Rantings) here. As usual, all I can say is: haven't you got better things to do? :-D Anyway, I'll get to the point. Some of you might remember one of my recent Posts complaining about Dizziness when getting out
