Monitoring Hepatic Steatosis
I’ve recently had an MRI scan of the small bowel and an MRI scan of the pancreas, liver and gallbladder as part of ongoing investigations into gut problems. One of the observations was that I have hepatic steatosis and a fatty pancreas with a possibility of pancreatic exocrine insufficiency (PEI) -

What is your experience with oral thrush and nystatin?
I’m experiencing a bad taste in my mouth that’s affecting my taste of food and sometimes feeling like there’s a lump in my throat when swallowing. . My GP looked in my mouth and said “you may have thrush”. She prescribed Nystatin. I don’t have the white plaques that bleed, etc., just

To stent or not to stent ?
As a result of mild, burning angina symptoms I was scanned. I have one significant blockage in the LAD artery. How significant I just don't know because it was impossible to actually get to talk to a cardiologist. Then I received an appointment to get a stent and I requested that the procedure be postponed

Statins - get informed and know the risks
This is my take on things - my personal experience and that of people I have met, known and loved (family members). If you are being pushed to take statins I would advise people to read up and consider risks before deciding to go on statins.. AND IT IS your decision. There’s loads of literature,

Exhausted by trying to find a solution
To anyone out there who is struggling with chronic constipation do you take PPI’s and if so do they affect your bowel. I am really struggling as I have had this problem since I was a teenager but it has got much worse since I started medication. I take Statins, PPI’s for a Hiatus Hernia, and Anlodipine

Back on the horse!
Good morning everyone, after months of very intermittent running/gym going , I’ve really done very little ( apart from reading everyone’s posts) I finally got back on that horse by starting again at week 3…. Seemed to go okay this morning but feel very sluggish. First time running since my BP medication

Amlodipine
I was taken off amlodipine some months ago and put on extra bisoprolol because I had swollen painful ankles. Later my cardiologist became concerned that.my dosage of bisoprolol was too high 7.5 mg and reduced it to 5. My blood pressure became high again and I was prescribed amlodipine again. This did

Could my new statins have upset the Apple cart?
I can see that this subject has been raised before but I’m feeling sorry for myself today and need the support of my forum friends and advisors. Just for a quick bit of background, I am six years into this PMR and struggling to taper below 7mg, maintaining 6.5mg but experiencing a lot of pain in my

Plaque reversal
I read that statins reverses arterial plaque. Is that true? I also saw that Berberine reverses plaque too: https://youtu.be/ZRArHoZueEI This all sounds pretty simply and would stop many heart attacks (assuming also diet and exercise)

Cholesterol rising?
Is rising cholesterol a natural consequence of aging? If it is then - given it is a natural consequence - statins seems to be the ONLY answer. Is that correct? I also read that statins can reverse arterial plaque - is that correct?

STATINS
Hi Can I please ask, if anybody takes a K2 vitamin and statins? I ask as i've been led to believe that K2 vitamin directly moves the calcium directly into the bones and not straight into the arteries. I've also read that if you take statins with this vitamin it stops it from doing this task??
