Hepatic Encepalopathy medications (Lactulose and Rifamixin OR L-ornithine and L-aspartate)
Which medication would be better to treat HE. The doctor is giving my mom L-ornithine and L-aspartate. My mom has HE and is suffering from delusions which are getting worse. I told my sister that Lactulose is a common medication to treat HE as I have read on the internet and told her to ask the doctor

Intermittent ADT criteria and rules
I know from past posts here, and reading many articles and studies, that the criteria for starting and stopping intermittent ADT (IADT), or doing it at all, can be controversial. Those posts from a search I did here, have been read. Sorry for rehashing the topic, but now the possibility of it is more

My IMRT decision.
Last summer during a regular annual physical which found an asymmetry hardness on my prostrate and trip to urologist with subsequent biopsy that showed a Gleeson 4+4=8 in one sample and a 4.4 PSA. After consults with several different types of oncologists, I decided on IMRT (radiation); 45 treatments

Thiazide Diuretics
Hello. I discovered I have high blood pressure in March this year. I tried Ramipril 2.5mg but I noticed tinnitus developing, plus it wasn’t effective so I changed to amlodipine 5mg, not effective, increased dose to 10mg, ankles started swelling plus palpitations, plus not hugely effective, so switched

RLS Relief
There's one medication I have taken that works 100% and has never failed...Valium. I was on the smallest dose and had zero problems. I have it so severe, I'm up till 3 am after going to bed at 10 PM, doing squats and running up and down the stairs trying to fatigue my muscles. I've cried and thought

Triglycerides
If trigs are lowest ever by LDL and total cholesterol are high does this mean that despite the figures, this is a good result as VLDL in LDL is actually also very low?

Completed Salvage Treatment
Now we wait and see. Last shot of Firmagon went in on Monday (total of 7 treatments) along with 40 IMRT sessions to the prostate bed. Hoping for a lengthy remission, but only time will tell. Overall the side effects were OK, dealing with some proctitis that kicked in at week 7 and is continuing 3 weeks

Glucosamine - possible effects on lipid profiles

Lipomas
Random question: Has anyone had a lot of lipomas post diagnosis of ITP or post splenectomy? I have recently started getting what I thought were swollen lymph nodes on my chest, shoulders and arms, but my GP seems to think they are lipomas. Just wondering if any one else had this happen.

High Cholesterol and hypothyroidism query re levothyroxine
Hi, I understand there's a link between high cholesterol, triglycerides etc and hypothyroidism. The consultant told me that if I'm taking medication for hypothyroidism then the link between lipid issues and thyroid no longer apply. All the tests show that my cholesterol levels are too high despite taking

Machine Learning Tackles Heart Disease Risk Assessment
Machine learning is the process of taking lots of data about a subject, splitting it into around 75% and 25% and then training the computer on the 75% where it knows the result we want to predict eg did someone get heart disease, and then asking it to make predictions on the unseen 25%. We can then

Latest blood report.
Hi all, I got my blood investigations done and report came yesterday. My Hba1c is 5.9 now!. From 16.4 in Jan'17 to 5.9 in jun'18 has been a long but interesting journey of trial and errors. I'm on LCHF diet and my total cholesterol also improved. Now it is 152. Food is the new medicine!😊
