Fighting for corrections is so hard.
I am coming up on the one year of my wife's passing. On this day last year, she was sitting in her hospital bed eating frozen fruit. She was at 99% Sat with 1l of O2, and the plan was to turn it off in the morning. LFT's bang on Normal. Indirect Billi is still high, direct normal. Albumin low Plat low

A proposed metabolic treatment for prostate cancer, (theoretical only) using drugs approved for other conditions
See the PaSTe regimen below: pantoprozole (a drug currently used to reduce stomach acid), simvastatin (a statin used to reduce cholesterol), trimetazidine (a drug used to treat angina attacks). PaSTe. Blockade of the Lipid Phenotype of Prostate Cancer as Metabolic Therapy: A Theoretical Proposal

Can a dialysis patient use protein power?
My protein level is low even with the Pro-Stat the kidney center gives to me, Is it ok to use whey protein powder? i mean in it the potassium is 160 mg per serving, Cholesterol is 55mg. I'm a dialysis person.I'm thinking cutting the per serving to half so to decrease the potassium.

PSA holding low after all!!
As I complained a couple of months ago that PSA could be increasing, today the PSA moved a bit down from 0.03 3 months ago to 0.01 today :-), so I needed to write a few words here about my feelings. With a warm-hearted attitude, somehow enthusiastic but foolish too, as these things are never static,

Are Functional Motor Symptoms Influenced by Glutamate and Glutamine Fluctuations?
I was reading an old post and someone commented about this, so naturally I asked the question and found this study: https://www.neurologylive.com/view/functional-motor-symptoms-influenced-glutamate-glutamine-fluctuations Interesting reading and saying that the "functional movements" are down to biology

We could tell in advance if enzalutamide works on a patient: computational biology
hopefully it will be clinically tested soon ”For the study in Nature Communications, Mitrofanova's team developed computational algorithms to discover why the prostate cancer drug enzalutamide (sold under the brand name Xtandi) never works for some patients and why it eventually stops working in others

Low Testosterone and value of continuing Hormone Therapy

Extra steroids?
Having had my first cold since before the pandemic after Christmas, I went off the to the doctors about 10 days ago because although I felt I'd recovered I was deaf in one ear and had sticky eyes. One ear hadn't 'popped' on the flight out or back to the UK and once the cold kicked in it got worse. Currently

Creatine
I am on Ursofalk and very well fortunately. I take Bezafibrate for itch (life saver). I have embark on a fitness journey of Crossfit and after 12 months wish to improve even more. I am advised by my coach to take Creatine and that this is natural and improves performance and muscle recovery. Anyone

Selegeline/RBD?
It's often said that all of the treatments currently in use for Parkinson's offer symptomatic relief only, and do not affect underlying pathology. However, a recent study suggests selegeline use impacts white matter microstructure and could be neuroprotective. I know white matter abnormalities have been
