CEA Fluctuations
My husband has just completed his 3rd cycle of Carboplatin and Etoposide for prostate cancer liver mets. Before the first cycle his CEA was 38 (should be <5) This number is being used as baseline. After 1st cycle it was 30.3 but after his 2nd cycle it rose to 32.7. Is it normal for CEA to fluctuate

Aspirin Question
Does anyone happen to know if it’s ok to take Excedrin, for a bad headache, when you have Essential Thrombocythemia & on Pegasys? Asking because I know there’s a fairly high dosage of aspirin in Excedrin. Thank you!

Cyproterone and Blood Pressure
I am currently on LHRH hormone therapy in preparation for radiotherapy followed by HDR brachytherapy for my locally advanced PCa, T3a Gleason 8, no visible mets fortunately. I have been suffering from quite unpleasant hot flushes which have shown no signs of going away. I discussed this with my consultant

sciatic pain
I’ve recently been diagnosed with Adenomyosis and suffer daily with pelvic pain and like a sciatic pain in my back and down my legs. Has anyone else had this, I’m not sure if the two are related. I also have diverticulosis so falling apart at the seems. 🤯

Colonoscopy polyp worries
Hiya there, 34yo male here who had a colonoscopy 2 weeks ago after having abdominal and back pain, constipation on and off since June. I had a positive FIT test which my doctor believes to be because I have an anal fissure and I have rectal bleeding. The colonoscopy was clear apart from a 4mm sessile

Hiya everyone, 34yo male who is really struggling right now with gastrointestinal problems. Looking for some advice please.

PMR resurgence
I’ve just finished a course of antibiotics for a bladder infection so am going for a fresh set of bloods, urine and poo today to try to establish if PMR has returned. It certainly feels like it! Since completing a 950km bike ride in France over 11 days I have been absolutely floored. I started

Atrioesophageal fistula (AEF)
Heads up to those undergoing cardiac ablation for Afib…had my ablation 12/6/23. Everything went great! Been in normal rhythm ever since! No bleeding, no hematoma, no real discomfort. However I woke up to abdominal pain, pain between shoulder blades and sore throat. 3 nights post op woke up to a burning

First SI, the pain, ouch!
Hello everyone, Asking for help again on my SI journey please 🙏 Yesterday I did my first IM injection into the thigh following a video by a UK GP. It hurt much less than the one I had done in the arm at a clinic 2 weeks ago (to check no allergic reaction) so I thought great, this is the way to go

weird mouth symptoms on Sulfasalazine
Has anyone experienced anything like the following? I’ve been on Sulf for 7 weeks, max dose from 4 weeks. In the last 3 days I’ve had a sore tongue which has now settled but I’ve completely lost my sense of taste. I’ve tested and am negative for covid. I can’t think what else it could be!
