Are My Numbers Horrible?
I was on statins 9 years ago and they caused debilitating muscle pains. When I switched doctors, my new doctor ordered a nuclear stress test, cardiac calcium test, c-reactive protein & NMR LipoProfile. Stress test was normal, cardiac calcium score was zero, c-reactive protein normal, but my NMR showed

Confused & Frustrated after seeing GP about recent blood tests, would appreciate your thoughts please
Hi, I had a follow-up appointment with my new GP this morning. But due to an error I was booked in with another GP, and no appointments available for the new GP. We discussed results from recent blood tests, he was quite flippant and said that although the original blood tests showed a possible thyroid

Which C-Reactive Protein test?
Which is the better test to measure inflamation--CRP high sensitivity or CRP quantitative. I would have thought the former, only the latter is a little more expensive.

I think I might need to drop the pace more moving into week 5 especially the much anticipated w5r3 😧 After having stiff quads for a few days I’ve started on a

to try to get the muscle repaired so not going out on aching legs. See how they feel tomorrow.

Does Proton Beam therapy have any proven advantages.
Anyone have experience with Proton therapy...? The Dizzying array of radiation techniques out there promising to minimize SE's and providing more accuracy becomes overwhelming whether it be Stereo Tactic, Image Guided...etc..etc. Proton Beam is rather new in the field.... comments? Experiences??
