Chronic boils anyone?
I'm stage 3b due to chronic kidney infections causing "inflammatory changes." I take activated Vit B6, antioxidants, sodium bicarb and get prolonged sun exposure (Vit D). My immune system doesn't seem to be compromised. I caught my first cold in years and it was super mild and only lasted 3 days.

Do you supposed to feel anything for CKD? And what are the symptoms?
Hello everyone I found out I have CKD in the last October with 1.48 creatinine, I met a very unhelpful doctor who just told me to have a low protein diet, and I didn't know what it was so I had to go online googled, then I found out CKD patients shouldn't eat high potassium, high phosphorus, high sodium

Midway through Radium 223 and look what I caught....
The treatments have left me pooped but somehow I muster up and go ocean fishing for salmon. This is from Friday. Ocean season closes today.....I got out 7 times. Kicks my butt, but it really motivates me.

Latest blood results
Hi all Since my last post my ENT specialist has started me on Levothyroxine 50mcg. My GP has done further bloods as my Medichecks result showed low ferritin and folate. But typically, GP rang me this morning saying ferritin and folate are within normal range so just take a multivitamin. She said she

Here is an extract what I read on Gutsense.org re salt
Moderate consumption of salt. Salt was always prized as one of the most valuable foods. The Roman centurions were paid salārium, or salt money (either in salt or money to buy salt). The table salt in the American diet is the sole source of iodine, a trace element essential for thyroid health. Salt is

Low serum ferritin, but iron tests normal?
Hello all, I posted my blood tests results a couple of weeks ago: FT3: 4.2 (range 3.5-6.5) (pre Levo level 3.9) FT4: 15 (range 11.5-22.7) (pre Levo level 10.8) TSH: 0.25 (0.55-4.78) (pre Levo level 0.34, but I am TSH deficient because of pituitary issues - also adrenal insufficient because of ACTH

Hi I will write a longer post about my daughters problems ,,, But I have a quick question to start with ..... is Dulcolax (sodium picosulfate) a stool softener (in that it adds liquid to the poo to make it softer ?)

Random attacks
I think most of us are aware of what causes flare ups, be it specific foods, stress etc. But does anyone just get random attacks for no reason? This week I’ve had 2 really bad bouts of diarrhoea, Imodium helped but I still have the cramps and general pains. Nothing unusual eaten this week, been good

More blood work
Okay, so apparently when I had bloodwork done a couple of weeks ago, someone didn't enter something correctly so I had to go back again. Finally went yesterday (lots of other things going on this past week I couldn't get it done any sooner). I received the results this morning on MyChart and they look

Albumin Creatinine Ratio Urine
At his last blood test my husbands Albumine /Creatinine level was 34.5. It is supposed to be under 2. His kidney specialist says it's because he eats too much salt but his sodium levels are always low normal. Can anyone tell me what this high reading means and how can I bring it down. Thanks.
