View 9 RepliesI just found out about my dad's kidney problem, apparently they are only functioning at 50%. He sees his kidney doctor every year to monitor the problem.
He's otherwise pretty healthy, so, my question is: will he be able to live a long life? What would his lifespan be with his kidneys functioning at 50%?

View 14 Replies28 weeks, and I've noticed a decrease in movement. I'm not talking major decrease but, the past week she hasn't been kicking as much. I don't know if it's because of my decrease in movement. I'm normally at the gym 3 or 4 times a week but the end of 2nd trimester I started getting fatigued again. I still do my prenatal yoga almost every day. I have an appointment with my OB this Thursday and will bring it up. I just feeL like there's something not right. Like a gut feeling, even if it's something super small.
View 2 RepliesBy way of background I have typical cushing's symptoms but my early labs including 24 hour urine were normal. So of course doctors have been dismissive. I had a brain MRI for tinnitus and convinced the radiologist to include the pituitary and a microadenoma was found. Now doctors are taking me seriously thank goodness. I had a an ACTH stimulation test a couple of days ago and these are the results posted online:
Base cortisol 42.0
30 min cortisol 26.0
60 min 49.2
Normal range for morning (test done at about 9 am): 6.2-19.4
Anyone else have a Decrease in appetite hitting them in their 3rd trimester ? It feels strange not wanting to eat anything.
View 4 RepliesI was diagnosed only yesterday and took my first pill today. I have been quite worried to hear about people's experiences levo, but more importantly I'm worried about the antibody attacks!
I don't have many symptoms except feeling the cold - that's the main one.
But my results were really bad: TSH 79.9, T4 6.8, AntTO 4777.7
My question is, while the thyroxine will regulate my hormone, what do people do about the anti-body attack? I'm getting a coeliac test done, although have previously come out negative.
What do people think? I've read about functional medicine practice is to heal the gut and cut out grains, which I will certainly try. Just wondered because no one seems to be questioning this and it's the antibodies causing the destruction!!
Do antibody levels decrease on Levo? What do you do about this? Anyone else gluten free?
"Interval decrease in the size of the central/left paracentral disc osteophyte complex."
Does this mean the disc is decreasing in a good way or that there is disc desiccation happening that is decreasing the size?

I had problems with pain and inflammation in my right knee. It hurt like hell when I don't take medicines. I have been prescribed with Cataflam two months ago. It have done wonders for me. I can walk, stand up and go upstairs without any pain. But I have heard that this medication is dangerous for elderly people. Is that true? I am 60 year old.
View 1 RepliesI get anxiety when people or things change.... even people I do not know. Today at work I heard that a child who is two years old is on her last days due to numerous problems. I felt anxiety shoot through my body even though I do not know this child. I know we all feel sad when we hear something like this but I cannot understand my body reaction to this. Another example is that there is a house behind me which is now sold and I feel anxiety that they are leaving even though I have never met them and I dont even know their names. What is this....I don't understand my feelings.

View 35 RepliesI have been working at reducing my valium daily for several months now. I haven't always been successful but I'm still on track.
A week ago i also stopped smoking.
PROBLEM - my husband is dying due to alcoholism and I really don't understand why he has to drink it at all. He's been to three rehabs, walked out of two (pne after only 12 hours) and successfully stayed dry for six months in one. Needless to say he bought six cans on the way home once discharged.
Why?
Someone must be able to explain to me why people like alcohol. Personally I think it tastes disgusting and causes multiple social problems and violence, so what is the attraction?
All answers welcomed, even those telling me negative things about myself. I'm quite used to hearing them from my husband, anyway....
I am 4 days over and got my bloody show at 11 this morning how soon after do people go into labour.

View 1 RepliesMy girlfriend has been on Zoloft 2 years, before we met.. We have been dating 8 months everything was nice, and normal. She was sweet, caring, and understanding of everything. Then she ran about about a month, and a half ago. For the last month she has blew up at every small thing there is. She is very hard to talk to, its like she see's it as a huge problem if I ask a question, and that'll just make her just blow up even more, or be snappy. I mean she is hurting me, and if I mention that. I'll get well why do you wanna be with me then if I'm hurting you?? It's like she no longer cares about us at all. Things that didn't even used to matter is a issue now. If I ask a question, I get blown up at, and told I'm trying everything in the world to please everyone. Baby cry's for one sec, she gets mad.. Everything in the world is basically a issue now. She snaps at basically everything now. She really isn't the same person since she quit taking them, I've never seen her act like this in my life. If our relationship was at stake usually shed all be trying to fix it, or apologize, or even cry now she's more of an angry mean person that don't really care, That says I dunno anything anymore... Then she'll say she does care the next day, and loves me and she never letting go etc, and sometimes cry, and say she was just frustrated, and then act like nothing never happened. Then the next day be distant as can be, and really quick to talk, or text, and be snappy. Then another day the most loving caring person again? I don't get it at all? Can Zoloft withdrawal really cause all this? She blames being off the meds as a big part in the way she is acting. She told me to make her an appointment with a doctor she don't have the time she works etc (which she just recently started, which is also causing stress to her)... I'm not sure if I can do that for her I told her. But I'd try to get her a doctor. Seems she even got mad about that..
