But this time I am going to ask the GP to try for Gout immediately (VIOXX and/or Allopurinol for Uric Acid/Gout). I notice it seems to reoccur every 5 years.
Advice appreciated?
So I Passed My Glucose Test But They Said My Iron Is Low And I Need More Calcium Too. They Said Take A Slow Release Iron Pill And Drink More Fluids.

Gilead has been in the news all weekend releasing their data results for all oral Sofosbuvir (phase 3) Hep C and co-infected w/ HIV. Also released GT3's data Hep C. Also Phase 2 results of Sofosbuvir before and after transplant. If you go to www.gilead.com and then go to press releases you can read all of the information. One thing extremely interesting about this company is that on 10-29-13 they released their earnings for the quarter. Analysts expected .

Here's a link to their press release: http://ir.springbankpharm.com/news-releases/news-release-details/spring-bank-pharmaceuticals-announces-additional-inarigivir?field_nir_news_date_value[min]=2017
Their results seem really good. I don't think I came across this previously nor saw it discussed here.
Does anyone have any comments on their report?
This indeed is fantastic news. Can't wait for the poster to become available online and see the exact magnitude of reduction in antigens a single injection of this drug was able to achieve.
BMS has just released a news release - FDA has approved their Daklinza (40 mg) to be taken with Sovaldi (400 mg) for only 12 weeks. This new med is for treating get 3s!
They said in the news release that the med would be available in a week. The news release was 7-24 so the med was out 7-31! Call your Dr if they haven't called you.
Just as an added piece of info, I was get 3 but after 24 weeks on Sovaldi &Ribavirin, I am now SVR24 - Hep C Speak for cured!
I had a DVT that went through my heart and into my lungs(PE).
A valve was damaged, also one chanber of my heart.
My problem is that I wasn't diagnosed as a "heart attack", but rather a "pulmonary embolism", and the lawyers representing me in my vioxx lawsuit say it has to be a heart attack, not a PE.
Isn't a heart attack part of a PE? Rather, did I suffer a heart attack as well as a pulmonary embolism?
There was no money exchanged or special consideration given to get Vioxx on the market. However, Vioxx is a good example of a study not digging deep enough into long term effects of a new drug. Vioxx was introduced in 1999 and was originally thought of as a treatment for polyps in the intestinal track.
PRINCETON, N.J., Aug 12, 2010 /PRNewswire via COMTEX News Network/ -- Pharmasset, Inc. (Nasdaq: VRUS) has received fast track designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for PSI-7977 for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. PSI-7977 is an oral uridine nucleotide analog polymerase inhibitor of HCV.

Don't know what you're working on. Time release is slow release. When I managed health food stores the saying about time release was, expensive urine or bowel movements, since the body evacuates before the stuff comes out of the capsule.
Years ago I tried Vioxx (the non-sulpha version of Celebrex) and wound up in the ER with dangerously high BP. Trouble is, even after I stopped Vioxx my BP never went back to normal. Now I'm on two different BP meds to control it. (Full disclosure: I also have a family history of hypertension.)
I took meloxicam for a long time because I could take it along with my BP meds, but eventually my stomach couldn't take it anymore.
[2] A series of small-scale studies completed in Germany found that H. procumbens was indistinguishable from Vioxx in the treatment of chronic low back pain,[3] and was well-tolerated after more than four years of treatment of H. procumbens alone.[4] H. procumbens also seems efficacious in the treatment of arthritis-caused hip and knee pain.
Yes very disappointing news. I think the scariest part is the number of people who do not know they are HCV infected and can lead to HCC. We can send men to the moon but we can't get the word out about the importance of HCV testing.
