Omeprazole/Lansoprazole on methotrexate
Hi,I'm on 20mg mtx and 200mg hydroxy. I've been having some difficulties swallowing tablets the last 6 months or so plus acid reflux/ dyspepsia discomfort at night so saw GP recently. I've had an endoscopy today and have got a telephone call with said GP on Tuesday, although I doubt he'll have any results

seeing as it’s nearly Halloween, here’s a horror story
Hello all, I bumped into an old friend in the supermarket that I hadn’t seen for a while and passed pleasantries, told him he was looking well (much better than when I had last seen him 2yrs prior). We were both in a hurry though so went on our separate ways. Today my brother told me that he too had

Hi, I’ve had 4 inputs over several months from GP’s and consultants with hope being built up then crashed. I am on 3 monthly jabs, as with so many others, is no where near enough. I’ve had the loading doses which returned me to normal functioning half way through 2nd week. Took bloods after last jab

Any insight into # platinum chemo cycles?
So I'm about to start cisplatinum + etoposide chemo cycles on wed. next week for NECP/SCCP. The first irritant I have of which I'm sure will not be the only one is: I have no idea what the treatment plan is, I don't know how many cycles I'm scheduled for and what the treatment goal is. Researching

Calprotectin 452, Colonscopy and missing symptoms
Hi folks, I recently had a repeated Calprotectin test come back as 452 (previously 72). I have extreme weight loss (I’m currently a 34 year old female, 5’4” and 43kg) and have been experiencing months of daily waking to instant intense cramping and typically unpleasant bowel movement. I’ll continue

Foraminotomy
has anybody had a posterior endoscopic foraminotomy? In particular for bone spurs. I could be looking at this surgery once injections have been exhausted. Would be interested in hearing from people about how they found it, did it work, and crucially what was your post op experience like, pain levels,

Juvia?
Hi, has anybody in this group tried Juvia? If so did it help and are you still using it? It sounds quite an interesting concept: its mixture of enzymes etc starts to digest carbohydrates before they hit the intestines. This lessens the chance of food fermenting and helping stop bloating, gas and bowel

Could I get some input on these blood lines/streaks in my stool?
A few months ago I started noticing little mucus boogers on the outside of my stool as well as bright red drops of blood on my tissue after wiping constantly after either having diarrhea or the day after eating super spicy food. My doctor believed that it is internal hemorrhoids because of how it occurs

Constipation
Hi helpful community. I am on 40 mg or prednisone for CGA, tapering down to 35 in 2 days for 2 weeks. I am suffering from constipation. Is it due to the prednisone or the Calcium supplements (600 mg x 2 per day)? I take Miralax (Restorolax) every couple of days. then I take mineral oil for couple

Pain won't stop
Hi all, it's been assumed that I'm struggling with IBS for around 6 weeks. I've tried buscopan forte with no ease. Last Friday I started Mebeverine hydrochloride 3 times a day, it's not helping! For 6 weeks I have pretty much been stuck in the fetal position with servere cramping pain that I'm comparing

Repeat Lutetium/ Pluvicto treatment
Hello all, I am just curious if anyone has experience doing additional lutetium treatments. I did three lutetium treatments from September 2021 to January 2022. My Denver oncologist is concerned about bone marrow toxicity , but he does not have enough experience with this treatment to say for sure.
