I used to grow a Mo every year and I suppose its time I did again! Stay tuned for pics

We are waiting

[Frail. "Will forever remain "Frail"]

Good luck mate, and remember this can be beaten! Just don't fall into a hole. Depression can and does suck you dry and kill you!

These last 2 years have been difficult.

[Frail. "Will forever remain "Frail"]

AG nee man Frail. That's not lekker news. Skop hom in sy gat uit!

Just got to wait another Two months.

The biggest advantage is early diagnosis - any changes to urinary stream strength or pain when urinating must be investigated asap- blood test every 2 years after 40 and regular manual exams too...

 

Men should take this seriously - it's really easily treatable with early diagnosis and a bustard if left alone a while to develop.

 

Dona search and you will see I repeat myself a lot on this one... a lot...

You would need to investigate why the levels are high if you have no symptoms - there are a few potential causes such as some medication you may be taking, some types of liver disease and some genetic disorders - specifically Gilbert-Meulengraght syndrome.

 

Normally Gilberts is not diagnosed until other potential causes are eliminated - and you need to be examined by a physician specifically to eliminate any other issue.

 

Here are 2 articles to read (sorry - not really for laymen) :

 

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4424929/

 

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7134940

 

You may want to look through the contents of any medications/supplements you are taking to see if any of them contain nicotinic acid - this seems to provoke elevated levels for some people (this is a flat out guess that it might be affecting you) - and is indeed one of the tests used in the diagnosis of Gilberts

 

If I were you - I would have it investigated further to get a proper diagnosis, and eliminate anything potentially causative - fortunately Gilberts is not as far as I know life threatening, and should not disbar you from a position - assuming that is what you have.

Hello V12

 

I am not using any Supplements or vitamins.

First Doc didn't take any further, Third tests.

Just diagnosed me with Gilbert's syndrome.

I am trying to get another specialists feedback.

Would a tooth abscees have had any affect?

Unlikely

[Frail. "Will forever remain "Frail"]

Unlikely

It cannot be from Supplements, stopped using for more than a year.

Only Medication would be Antihistamines"Texa brand" and the odd pain or rennie tablet.

Gilbert's syndrome is genetic - no real point in hoping for a different cause - I think you have it and your doc does too - 1 in 10 Europeans has it - no big deal really.

[Frail. "Will forever remain "Frail"]

Hoping This time tomorrow i will be out of this pain.

I have carried this pain long enough.

Praying
