How to Reverse Autoimmune Disease, or Almost Any Chronic Disease with Supermarket Foods (Dr. Brooke Goldner)
Tumblr media
While in high school, this doctor had a diagnosis of lupus with even stage 4 kidney failure (which normally takes people's lives within a few months). She put it into remission with conventional treatments, but it came out with more life-threatening ramifications (mini strokes) while she was in the stress of medical school. Through lifestyle shifts, she found out how to live beyond her expectancy, joyfully, and even give birth to healthy children.
Her own experience mixed with in-depth research helped her to ensure the protocol could be reproducible and safe. So, she started to work on these methods with her patients. Healthy emotional habits + hypernourishment (what I personally refer to as food centric herbalism) is central to her practice. It's not miracle work. It's based on limiting the obstructions on the body's abilities to naturally restore itself (just like the healing of a minor wound). It's scientific and effective.

Mornings
As I sit in the bathroom, I find my eyes have fallen on a very old steel step. It folds out into 3 steps, and has a handy seat on the top step. The seat is fake leather, and I know it over 35 years old. It was my wife's when we started living together. I see splashes of paint, and I remember each one, the color, the room, and yes even the house. It takes me back a bitter road of love. The first color come from our first house. I can't say it where we fell in love, because we leaped into love. We were perfect together.I learned when people say a relationship takes a lot of work, they have no idea what they are talking about. We were married 29 years, and never had one major fight. We were like 2 perfect gears together. Another color is from our second house in Colorado. We moved there because she missed her mother. We found that even though she lived across the alley from her son, she was unable to take care of herself. She was messing up her meds and had fallen and broken her collarbone. We decided to find a house to suit both mom and us. We found a home that we loved. It was quite a drive from where I worked, about 120 miles round trip, but it wasn't about me. We moved mom with us, and my new barn became a home for a lot of junk, and my 1968 Chevelle convertible. I didn't drive it much, because it sucked gas like a vacuum cleaner. I drove back and forth to work everyday, until she was diagnosed with cancer. She had been feeling run down for almost a year. Finally her doctor had a bone marrow test, and a pet scan. It was non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and it was stage 4. I turned in for retirement to take care of her. We could not make the mortgage payment, and decided to move. Mom had passed in 2013, her last years in a home for people with dementia. Enough said. We put the home on the market. It took almost a year to sell it. I had researched other places to live. She had live in Colorado all her life except the time she lived with me in California. She told me that she wanted to move out of Colorado, because this wasn't her Colorado anymore. We ended up selling and buying very quickly. One home that I had looked at was the one I am sitting in right now, although not in the bathroom anymore. We got moved and she found a fantastic doctor. He said she needed another round of chemo, and we had a meager Christmas that year, facing another round of sickness, loss of hair, well, you get the idea. She went through 4 treatments. She wasn't that sick, and lost little hair. After the treatments she was declared cancer free. We celebrated, but I had reservations. I knew this type of cancer comes back from experience.
It did. It came back 4 times. She went through chemo, having her spleen out, septic shock from an UTI, and the death of her best friend. The 4th time she had started chemo, and got infections through her PICC line, put in for the chemo. She went into the hospital again with infections. She had done this 3 times already. I didn't know this was the last. I watch as she had ups and downs, 18 days in ICU. About 5 days before she lost the fight, she told me she was so tired of fighting. I knew in my gut I was going to lose my bride. She rallied about 3 days before the end, but I knew this happens sometimes. The doctors tried one last treatment to fight the bacterial, fungal, and yeast infections in her blood and lungs. I agreed, but the drug killed her already weak kidneys. The last 2 days I told her she could go. I prayed for her to go, as terrible as that sounds. I knew she had a fear of dialysis, and told me many times she wasn't going to live like that, having watched her first husband died from kidney failure. Everyday I go up and sit by her bed, once she was sitting up, but had to have help even to stand. The last few days as she went in and out of reality, I'd sit and quietly sing to her. When I sang "Nights in White Satin", she'd smile, except the last 2 days, but I sang to her anyway. I was called to the hospital because they said she was going. I cried all the way there. I sat until 3 am on 5/5/2022. I had to go home and take care of our animals. I intended to come right back, but like an idiot, I sat down. I woke at 8:30 am, and got in the truck. At 8:45, the nurse called and said she had passed at 8:40 am. She had told me many times she didn't want me to sit and watch her die. Well Angel, I never denied you anything. Rest in Peace my Love.

July 25, 2022 update
What is really happening & we'll be finding out in the time soon
- are metastatic tumors stable or growing?  I had growths show in May with mets in liver,  lung, kidney , lymph nodes. I should have CT in August
- outside of that the liver is doing its own failure; it's caused physical & mental illness & can just turn off altogether anytime
- might have other prime organs just choosing to fail & there's little to do
- I'm very jaundiced
- I have to take a medicine to try to keep my brain functioning
- I'm essentially bedbound,  very weak,  have intermittent pain & meds
-is there any different treatment or chemo usable or is this all impossible by now?
Do not pretend end stage triple negative metastatic breast cancer patients thrive. That's why I've started to hate the word thrive. TNBC has highest rate of metastatic return and it has the shortest metastasis survival time.  That's where all the emphasis and fund-raiser needs to be : reducing stage 4 recurrence & raising its survival chances.

Renal Health: A Comprehensive Guide From The Best Kidney Specialist in Surat
Tumblr media
The kidneys, two bean-shaped organs located on either side of the spine, play a crucial role in maintaining our overall health. Often overlooked, these vital organs are responsible for filtering waste and excess fluids from the blood, regulating blood pressure, and producing hormones that help control red blood cell production. In this comprehensive guide, we will delve into the intricacies of kidney health, understanding kidney disease, recognizing its symptoms, identifying risk factors, exploring types of kidney diseases, learning about kidney failure, and discussing preventive measures for chronic kidney disease.
What are Kidneys?
The kidneys are remarkable organs with multifaceted functions. They filter approximately 200 quarts of blood daily, producing about 1 to 2 quarts of urine, which helps eliminate waste and maintain the body’s fluid balance. Additionally, kidneys regulate electrolytes, acid-base balance, and blood pressure. Their role in red blood cell production and activation of vitamin D also contributes to overall health.
What is Kidney Disease?
Kidney disease, also known as renal disease, occurs when the kidneys’ functionality is impaired, leading to a reduced ability to filter waste and excess fluids. This condition can manifest in various forms and stages, ranging from mild to severe. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a common and progressive form that may develop over several years, often without noticeable symptoms in the early stages.
What are the Types of Kidney Disease?
Kidney diseases encompass a broad spectrum of conditions, each with its unique causes and characteristics. Our kidney specialists at SIDS Hospital, one of the best hospitals in Surat have shortlisted some common types of kidney diseases for your better understanding:
1. Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD): As mentioned earlier, CKD is a long-term condition where the kidneys gradually lose their ability to function. It is often linked to conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, and glomerulonephritis.
2. Acute Kidney Injury (AKI): This sudden onset of kidney dysfunction is typically caused by factors such as dehydration, infections, or certain medications. Timely intervention can often reverse AKI.
3. Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD): PKD is a genetic disorder characterized by the growth of cysts in the kidneys, leading to an increase in their size and potential impairment of function. It is crucial to consult the best kidney specialists in Surat to prevent further damage.
4. Glomerulonephritis: This inflammatory condition affects the glomeruli, the tiny filters within the kidneys. It can result from infections, immune system disorders, or other diseases.
What are the Symptoms of Kidney Disease?
In the early stages, kidney disease may be asymptomatic, making it crucial to be aware of potential signs as the condition progresses. Common symptoms include:
- Fatigue and weakness
- Swelling, particularly in the legs and ankles
- Changes in urination frequency and colour
- Persistent itching
- High blood pressure
- Shortness of breath
- Nausea and vomiting
- Loss of appetite
It’s essential to consult a healthcare professional if these symptoms arise, as early detection and intervention can slow the progression of kidney disease.
What are the Risk Factors for Developing Kidney Disease?
Understanding the risk factors for kidney disease is pivotal in taking proactive steps towards prevention. As explained by our kidney specialist in Surat at SIDS hospital, the key risk factors include:
1. Diabetes: Uncontrolled diabetes can damage blood vessels in the kidneys, leading to kidney disease.
2. High Blood Pressure: Hypertension is a leading cause of kidney damage. Managing blood pressure is crucial in preserving kidney health.
3. Age: The risk of kidney disease increases with age, especially after the age of 60.
4. Family History: Genetic factors can contribute to the risk of developing certain kidney diseases, such as PKD.
5. Smoking: Smoking can worsen kidney disease and interfere with medications used to treat it.
6. Obesity: Excess weight can strain the kidneys and increase the risk of diabetes and hypertension.
What is Kidney Failure?
Kidney failure, also known as end-stage renal disease (ESRD), occurs when the kidneys are no longer able to function adequately to sustain life. At this stage, individuals often require dialysis or kidney transplantation to survive. Kidney failure can result from the gradual progression of chronic kidney disease or, in some cases, from acute kidney injury.
Preventing Chronic Kidney Disease
According to our specialists at SIDS hospital who are considered as the best kidney specialists in Surat, prevention plays a crucial role in maintaining optimal kidney health. Here are essential measures to prevent chronic kidney disease:
1. Manage Blood Pressure: Regular monitoring and management of blood pressure are crucial. Lifestyle modifications and medication adherence may be necessary.
2. Control Diabetes: For individuals with diabetes, maintaining blood sugar levels within the target range is essential in preventing kidney damage.
3. Adopt a Healthy Diet: A diet low in salt, saturated fats, and refined sugars, combined with adequate hydration, supports kidney health. Fresh fruits, vegetables, and whole grains are excellent choices.
4. Stay Active: Regular physical activity promotes overall health, helps control blood pressure, and reduces the risk of obesity.
5. Quit Smoking: Smoking not only increases the risk of kidney disease but also hinders its treatment. Quitting smoking is a crucial step in kidney health.
6. Limit Alcohol Consumption: Excessive alcohol intake can contribute to kidney damage. Moderation is the key to maintaining kidney health.
Conclusion
Understanding the intricacies of kidney health, recognizing the signs of kidney disease, and adopting preventive measures are essential components of overall well-being. Regular check-ups, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, and addressing risk factors promptly contribute to the longevity of your kidneys. By taking a proactive approach to kidney health, you empower yourself to lead a fulfilling life with optimal renal function. If you experience symptoms or have concerns about your kidney health, consult with our healthcare professional at SIDS hospital, considered as one of the best hospital in Surat for personalized guidance and care.

Liver Transplant in India
The liver is an indispensable organ that is found in the upper right side of the abdomen, just beneath the diaphragm. It is one of the most complex and largest organs in the human body, weighing between 1.4 and 1.6 kilograms and measuring about 10 centimeters. It carries out the three essential tasks that our body requires: Storage, Protein synthesis, and Detoxification.
Different types of infections, medications, or poisons can cause liver failure or problems. A balanced diet, limited alcohol use, protection against pollutants, and regular exercise are a few practices that should be embraced in order to maintain a healthy liver. If liver function deteriorates, a liver transplant may be required to save a person's life and return the liver to normal function.
What is a Liver Transplant?
A liver transplant is a surgical process in which an infected or damaged liver is replaced with a healthy liver from another person. Liver transplantation is a treatment available for end-stage liver disease, acute liver failure,or certain liver cancers that cannot be treated effectively through other mediums.

Know About the Inherited Kidney Diseases!
Tumblr media
Kidneys are vital organs that play a crucial role in maintaining the body's overall health. Unfortunately, some individuals are born with or inherit kidney diseases, which can have a significant impact on their lives. In such cases, consulting a nephrologist in Noida, especially the best nephrologist in Noida, affiliated with NEO Hospital, is crucial. In this blog, we will explore inherited kidney diseases, their causes, symptoms, and the importance of seeking expert medical care.
What Are Inherited Kidney Diseases?
Inherited kidney diseases, also known as genetic kidney diseases, are conditions that are passed down through families due to genetic mutations. These mutations can affect the structure and function of the kidneys, potentially leading to a wide range of kidney-related problems. These conditions can be present at birth or become apparent later in life.
Common Types of Inherited Kidney Diseases
1. Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD): PKD is one of the most prevalent inherited kidney diseases. It causes fluid-filled cysts to form in the kidneys, leading to an increase in kidney size and a decline in function over time. Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) and Autosomal Recessive Polycystic Kidney Disease (ARPKD) are the two primary forms of PKD.
2. Alport Syndrome: Alport syndrome is a genetic disorder that affects the basement membrane of the kidneys, leading to hematuria (blood in the urine), hearing loss, and eye abnormalities. It can lead to chronic kidney disease and eventually kidney failure.
3. Fabry Disease: Fabry disease is a rare genetic disorder that affects the metabolism of lipids. It can lead to kidney damage, along with other systemic symptoms such as skin rashes, pain, and gastrointestinal issues.
4. Nephronophthisis: Nephronophthisis is a group of inherited kidney diseases that primarily affect children and young adults. It leads to the gradual loss of kidney function, ultimately resulting in kidney failure.
Symptoms and Diagnosis
The symptoms of inherited kidney diseases can vary depending on the specific condition and its stage. Common signs to watch out for include:
● Blood in the urine (hematuria)
● High blood pressure
● Frequent urinary tract infections
● Swelling in the face, hands, or feet
● Back or side pain
● Decreased kidney function
To diagnose inherited kidney diseases, genetic testing is often necessary. A nephrologist will review the patient's medical history, perform a physical examination, and order specific tests such as blood and urine analysis, imaging studies, and, in some cases, genetic testing.
The Role of a Nephrologist
When dealing with inherited kidney diseases, it is essential to consult a nephrologist, a specialised medical professional with expertise in diagnosing and treating kidney conditions. In Noida, NEO Hospital provides access to some of the best nephrologists who can offer comprehensive care for patients with inherited kidney diseases.
Treatment and Management
The management of inherited kidney diseases often focuses on slowing the progression of the condition, managing symptoms, and preventing complications. Specific treatment strategies may include:
1. Blood pressure control: Maintaining blood pressure within a healthy range is crucial to protect the kidneys.
2. Medications: Certain medications may be prescribed to manage symptoms, such as pain, and high blood pressure, or to delay the progression of kidney disease.
3. Dialysis or transplantation: In severe cases of kidney failure, dialysis or kidney transplantation may be necessary.
Conclusion
Inherited kidney diseases can be challenging, but with the guidance of the best nephrologist in Noida, affiliated with NEO Hospital, patients can receive the specialised care they need. Early diagnosis, proper management, and a support system are essential to living a fulfilling life despite these conditions. If you suspect you or a loved one may have an inherited kidney disease, seek medical attention promptly to receive a personalised treatment plan. Remember, knowledge and timely intervention can make a significant difference in the outcome.

Multi-Symptom Heart Disease Risk Gets a Name
Health experts are redefining cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk, prevention and management, according to a new American Heart Association Advisory published in “Circulation.”
Experts Define CKM
Various aspects of cardiovascular disease overlap with kidney disease, type 2 diabetes and obesity.
For the first time, the American Heart Association defines the overlap in these conditions as cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic (CKM) syndrome. People who are at risk for cardiovascular disease may have CKM syndrome. 
The new approach includes:
CKM syndrome stages ranging from 0 (no risk factors) to stage 4, the highest risk range with established cardiovascular disease. Stage 4 may also include kidney failure. Each stage correlates to specific screenings and therapies.
Collaborative approaches among multiple specialties to treat the whole patient
Screenings for and addressing social factors that impact health
Suggested updates to the algorithm that helps healthcare professionals predict a person's likelihood of having a heart attack or stroke
According to the American Heart Association, one in three U.S. adults have three or more risk factors that contribute to cardiovascular disease, metabolic disease and/or kidney disease.
Stages of CKM
CKM affects nearly every major organ in the body, including the heart, brain, kidney, and liver. However, the biggest impact is on the cardiovascular system, affecting blood vessels and heart muscle function, the rate of fatty buildup in arteries, and electrical impulses.  
CKM related screening is intended to detect cardiovascular, metabolic and kidney health changes early:
Stage 0: No CKM risk factors
Stage 1: Excess body fat and/or an unhealthy distribution of body fat, such as abdominal obesity, and/or impaired glucose tolerance, or prediabetes
Stage 2: Metabolic risk factors and kidney disease
Stage 3: Early cardiovascular disease without symptoms in people with metabolic risk factors or kidney disease or those at high predicted risk for cardiovascular disease
Stage 4: Symptomatic cardiovascular disease in people with excess body fat, metabolic risk factors or kidney disease
The purpose of these stages is for people to work toward “regressing” to a lower stage.

Duncan has an advanced diploma in naturopathy from the Australian College of Natural Medicine. He also has diplomas and training in nutrition and herbal medicine, craniosacral therapy, homeopathy, and kinesiology. Duncan and his wife Fiona first set up this treatment plan to help Fiona's grandmother, who had stage 4 renal disease and was told that dialysis was her best option. After reading a lot of peer-reviewed journals, clinical trials, and other clinical literature, they worked hard to make an all-natural application that miraculously helped Fiona's grandmother in just 12 weeks. 6 months into their treatment, her condition greatly improved, going from level 4 to level 1, and she went on to live 10 more happy years before dying of heart failure in 2017.

I needed a place to put my thoughts as I am reaching my limit on what I can keep to myself. I used to have twitter as an outlet, but between the change in ownership and knowing that all my friends can see that... I needed something different for the deep dark.
I have a lot of health issues and lately it has felt like the struggle is... too overwhelming.
A short list of my issues*:
diabetes (type 1)
retinopathy (currently stable) in both eyes
cataract in my right eye
anemia (I get a shot every month so I produce hemoglobin and just recently had to start iron infusions because pills are no longer enough)
rheumatoid arthritis (severe. My ankles are completly autofused and some of my other joints are fused enough that they do not extend all the way)
Kidney failure (stage 4. Waiting for a transplant)
Endometriosis
*yes, some of these are self inflicted troubles from several years of ignoring my diabetes in my teens/early 20s. I would not say I regret it and I accept that these are consequences of my actions. They are still hard to deal with on top of the things I have no control over.
I can't help but wonder if the transplant is worth it. They say it only extends quality of life for 8-15 years. Is it worth the hassle? I already feel like a failure for hitting this point in my 30s. Once the new kidney goes, I'll only feel worse about it. What a waste. I don't feel like I have the will to do what needs to be done, and yet... here I am... going with the flow. Waiting for a someday surgery I'm not sure I want.
I have told very few people about this. My parents, my sister, my boyfriend and a partial story to one friend. I had to tell my boss about the kidneys since I'll have to take a lot of time with potentially very little notice. When you hit this point, you really start to look at your relationships and really start to think about what you can trust them with and what they can handle.
I am very open about my diabetes, anemia and RA. The kidney failure... I don't feel like I can share. It feels too close to saying "I'm failing." "I'm dying."

Skippy,Could you please add me to your prayer list. After 28 years of marriage and being disabled all 28 years, my husband shockingly served me divorce papers with no warning. We share a home , so I am staying with my sister with just my disability income. No car, no money for a place to live and no money for an attorney. Leaving me poor and homeless, with zero recourse after 33 years of living together and marriage. My daughter's are in college and want no part of me. I'm all alone.
I'm sorry Skippy, I forgot to mention I have stage 3-4 heart failure, kidney disease, tumors. And children live hundreds of miles away and I have no friends, so very scared, with no means to move anywhere but to live in my broken down car while he is very very wealthy. Even 1 payer has to help, right?
My dear friend. I don’t know your circumstances as far as your financial situation, but it seems to me you are under the impression you will have no aid. This can’t be true, in this day and age. Even with a prenup, you should have some sort of protection. You need a lawyer….make some calls. If you can tell me what country, or state, or province you live in, I know anons and I will do our best to direct you to some help. You are not alone. Please provide a bit more background. I will of course add you to our prayer list. Hang on….we have got you🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

What Is Cirrhosis?
Tumblr media
Our livers are capable of self-healing and regeneration. However, as scar tissue eventually forms, it loses some of its ability to perform as intended. Circulatory flow to the liver reduces as the number of scars rises. The liver's fundamental functions are also impaired. This may occasionally result in liver failure and even death. Cirrhosis claims more than a million lives annually throughout the world.
In addition to managing difficult liver surgeries, Dr. Aniruddha Bhosale Head of Liver Transplant and HPB Surgery  at His Hospital in Pune, has decades of experience treating liver cirrhosis as well. He is renowned for offering the best Liver cirrhosis treatment in Pune. due to his extensive training and experience.
Let's learn more about cirrhosis today, including its diagnosis and treatment.
Cirrhosis of the liver is a disorder brought on by persistent liver injury. The liver becomes hard and nodular in this syndrome. Fibrosis replaces the liver tissue. When cirrhosis develops, liver damage is permanent. The cirrhotic liver can no longer regenerate.
Cirrhosis classification
1. Compensated Cirrhosis
It is simply a liver that has been damaged yet is still largely functional.
2. Defamed Cirrhosis
The beginning of the signs and symptoms of liver dysfunction is represented by the advanced stage of cirrhosis.
Why may cirrhosis be harmful?
Cirrhosis causes a number of complications, including
Ascites (abdominal fluid)
Edoema (limb fluid)
(Vomiting blood) Variceal bleeding
The encephalopathy of confusion
Hepatorenal Syndrome, or malfunction of the kidneys
Lung condition (Hepatopulmonary syndrome, Hepatic hydrothorax)
liver tumour
The signs of cirrhosis
The symptoms of liver disease that progresses from early fibrosis to cirrhosis typically take years to appear. Early on, there are frequently few, if any, symptoms.
When symptoms appear, they are occasionally misdiagnosed, disregarded, or linked to additional potential causes. However, if the condition worsens, the symptoms could become more obvious. These signs consist of:
Fatigue Confusion
Weakness
Itching
reduced appetite
Loss of weight
Nausea
Simple bruising
Jaundice
ankle, foot, and leg swelling
Bloating due to ascites in the abdomen
Cirrhosis causes
Cirrhosis is most frequently brought on by:
1. Alcohol-related liver disease: This condition is often brought on by   years of heavy drinking.
2.Hepatitis B is a common contributor to cirrhosis.
3.Hepatitis C is the main predictor of liver transplants and one of the    common causes of cirrhosis.
4.Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease: Cirrhosis is more common in people who have diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity, and high cholesterol. With the prevalence of lifestyle disorders rising in our community, this is fast becoming one of the most common causes of liver cirrhosis.
Among the uncommon causes of cirrhosis are:
First Sclerosing Cholangitis
Wilson's disease and other hereditary illnesses
Hepatitis auto-immune
Hemochromatosis
Celiac illness
Medication
Cirrhosis diagnosis
1: liver biopsy
It is the most precise method for determining the stage of cirrhosis. Nowadays, liver biopsies to diagnosis cirrhosis are rarely performed due to advances in radiological techniques.
2. Magnetic resonance elastography or an ultrasound
These methods for detecting cirrhosis are non-invasive.
3. Blood examinations and imaging devices (CT and MRI)
These can be used to track the development of diseases.
Cirrhosis of the Liver Treatment
In Pune, cirrhosis is frequently treatable before it worsens and a liver transplant is necessary.
The cause and severity of the disease play a major role in cirrhosis therapy.
But after diagnosis, treatment should start right away.
The only known treatment for cirrhosis is liver transplantation.
To slow the growth of liver scarring, you should follow the steps listed below, which include:
Avoid consuming alcohol and drugs that can harm the liver.
Avoid over-the-counter herbal supplements and medications because some of them have been linked to liver damage.
The risk of liver damage from prescription drugs is increased by cirrhosis. As a result, the effects on the liver of every prescription should be carefully considered.
Avoid eating raw shellfish that might have bacteria in it. In those with advanced liver disease, it can potentially result in a serious infection.
Exams and hepatitis A and B vaccinations
antiviral medication for treating hepatitis B and C.
Detection and treatment of bile duct obstructions caused by ursodiol, one of the secondary causes of cirrhosis.
Regarding the treatment of people with cirrhosis, nutrition is crucial.
As soon as you receive a cirrhosis diagnosis, you should start treatment. To get the finest care after the diagnosis, you should always speak with a skilled and experienced liver specialist in Pune.
