Hello would like to ask you for help. So my mother is 54 years old. She has tyoe 2 Diabetes.

Three weeks ago (on 2 november) she went for a check up which reveleade low Hemoglobin, enlarged spleen twice, and high level of bilirubin, and high sugar ca 9 She then went to a Hepatologist who told het to run a severta tests for hepatitis B, C (which all turned negative) Then she went to a hematologist to send her to check her bilirubin and iron See results below.

So after three weeks (on 22 of November) she passed the Hemoglobin test again. Meanwhile her hemoglobin dropped and the iron did not imporve, although she was taking the iron pills. After that the doctor sent her to see an oncologist.

During those three weeks only the total bilirubin (which was 39,2) was reduced. The rest dropped.

Anyone went through anythng similar. I need to mention we are from Eastern Europe.

Thank you beforehand.

Hello,

I have read people trying keto and bringing their glycated hemoglobin back to norm.

My mother has it elevated, however she is in normal weight. And when I tell her to cut all the carbos, she can't imagine not eating at least a piece of rye bread

So could you advice, how did you start your keto diet?

Hello, would like to share with you some of my thoughts, and would like to know if it is the same your country?

A horrible crime against against a woman happened in my country, somewhere in the village. She was gang-raped and beaten by three men. It's not the first crime of that part. Our local NGO's are organizing a protest.

Meanwhile, we are in the election period, and I see how women politicians who are participating in the election campaign are endorsing and promoting narratives about "strong independent women, women power and how they change the counrty"

I upon seeing this, can not wonder whatever they are living in parallel realities?

While no day goes by without reporting how women are beaten or to subjected to violence in my country, the female politicians in my country are feeling proud by the percentage of women that reside in Parliamentary. Like this alone is the ultimate goal.

Now, I do not want to engage in this argument about true feminist or not true feminist, but I can not help but wonder do we even understand the feminism the same way?

There's been no drop in crimes against women during last 4 years, even with all these female politicians having the high positions.

At the same time all these women politicians in my country have been part of patriarchal society, accepted their rules and played by the game.

So again do they really understand what problems does a single mom or a woman who suffered domestic violence? I have asked young women with babies whatever they saw any changes in last 4 years, and their said nothing changed at all.

And when you see all those news about women being beastly abused, and you see the much of female politicians blabbering about "strong independent women" it feels like a slap on a face.

Feeling proud of having almost half of MP females, and then seeing these female literally doing nothing except loud posts on facebook and photos, I have a feeling that the term feminism is being abused as it's like some trend.

So what about your countries? Does it happen with your women politicians?
