Thoracic Endo - advice needed
Hi, I’m currently dealing with Thoracic Endo and could really use some advice from anyone else struggling with it. I had VATs surgery last year to treat a catamenial pneumothorax, but air still seems to be getting through holes in my diaphragm. My Thoracic surgeon has suggested having more major surgery

persistent pneumothorax
I finally had my procedure last Wednesday due to uncertain recent pet /ct changes ( had r lower lobe lobectomy and r upper wedge 5 1/2 years ago) at the scar site of upper. Bronch was completed with insignificant findings but Tumor board recommended to go in for surgery. Great news following surgery

I got my lung diagnosis after an excruciating wait, and it was a shock!
Hi there! I made a post earlier in the year about waiting for my VATS biopsy results. My experience was very unusual, but if it helps anyone else in future, I figured it would be useful posting it. Last year I was having palpitations, and was sent to A&E just as a precaution. I had a CT scan done

Recurrence
I know with over OVCA (or any cancer), everyone hopes for “one and done”, but life sometimes doesn’t work out that way. I have had a number of reoccurrences but want to share that so far I’ve been knocking them back with various treatments, whether it be chemo, radiation, targeted therapy, immunotherapy

Nice to be here
I have just been diagnosed with severe chronic pancreatitis. I am really scared, even though I've had bad symptoms for some time. I'm on enzyme therapy and recently had to increase the dose. Would like to talk to people that have had experience with this. Thank you and I look forward to meeting you

Speech production technology
Has anyone tried speech production technology, such as Stephen Hawking used, for PSP patients? Was it successful or not? Our speech therapist is asking us to consider it since we cannot understand my husband any more. Thanks

NDT vs T4 T3 combination therapy
Hello everyone. Please share your experience NDT vs combination therapy. Currently I am on combo but still have symptoms (I have no thyroid). I am doing better on combo than on T4 only. I want to try NDT and see if it will make me feel better. Since both of them mainly contain T4 T3 may I expect significant

CRISPR 13 (what? you thought I abandoned CRISPR?): very promising proof of concept - Targeting HOXB13 in mPCa by CRISPR/Cas13d- nanoparticle
And people thought it was undruggable....they have already filed for a patent 😲 Researchers developed nanoparticles that can deliver a special type of gene therapy directly to cancer cells in the liver. This system uses a CRISPR technology, not to edit DNA, but to block the RNA of the HOXB13 protein

Major depressive disorder
I was with my ex for 36 years before I foiled for a divorce. We remained close . December 2023 was 1 year for our divorce. He had at least 3 affairs that I proved, I believe he had at least 3 or 4 more that I couldn’t prove. He asked me to move in with him February this year, I did because I thought

Change in inhalers
I'm currently on sertide and being switched over to symbicort. I'm not sure of the dosage etc as need to discuss further with gp. I'm a little concerned as been on seretide for years. When I get switched it triggers flares and I've already had loads of time of work. I work part time. I also think I'm

combination therapy for ADHD
Does anyone have experience using combination therapy of a stimulant plus a non-stimulant? From what I understand, you take the stimulant in the morning and the non-stimulant in the late afternoon or evening. I recently started using Adderall ir. Having a lot of trouble in the evening and at night
