Issues for Tissues – Don’t Be Nonchalant About Steroids

2020-07-13T08:32:29-05:00

Research on Steroids Research is piling up that steroids can have adverse downstream issues. We used to think this was mostly from extended use, but in some of you it can occur from even using steroids for a few days. A population-based study of more than 2.6 million people found that taking corticosteroids for 14 days or less was associated with a substantially greater risk for gastrointestinal  bleeding, sepsis, and heart failure, all which can occur up to 30 days after you stopped taking the steroids. Patients were tracked from 5 to 90 days before treatment for various conditions when steroids [...]

Glaucoma

2018-11-16T16:45:13-06:00

Glaucoma Glaucoma is a serious disease of the optic nerve. Optic nerves are actually an extension of the brain inside the eyes. Normal optic nerves, not diseased with glaucoma, can with stand ups and downs of internal eye pressure (intraocular pressure IOP). But those with this disease, their nerves can't handle the normal ups and downs of pressure. Fibers die. Vision is lost. All ophthalmologists can do is try to lower pressure through drops and surgery. Too often this does not stop the nerve damage and sight lost. But the questions have always been: why are these nerves so sensitive to [...]
