meningitis vaccine
Do CLL patients who have never had meningitis vaccine need two doses? I am asking about the meningitis vaccine for strains ACWY, such as Menactra, not the Hib/MenC vaccine. It looks like two doses are recommended based on google search but my Dr did not mention getting a second dose.

Pissing Problems Return
Hello Fellow Warriors! Started two weeks ago with a UI, but was able to empty the tank with some burning and pissing very often. Started on an antibiotic. That didn't help, so on to a different antibiotic that started last Friday. Pissing became more difficult that next day and Sat night thought

Has anyone been through the "TURPS" procedure?
I'm worried about the side effects. Anyone suffer from them? How badly does it affect your life. Was it worth it?

Boils, Carbuncles and Abscesses
It has been such a long time since I have been in this space or written anything. I had a really nasty flare and and continuous colds that I thought it would never end.

Muscle loss
My dad has just recently been diagnosed with CLL. Over the past few months he has been losing a lot of muscle mass especially round his arms. Does anyone have any advice about this? And any tips on how to boost his energy levels? Tom

Intertrigo
I have mentioned before that I have a skin condition called Intertrigo. Skin underneath my boobs is sore & red. Currently I am using Sudocrem, after many steroid creams have been unsuccessful. I am looing for t shirt type of top with cups. I am finding the lower band of my soft bras irritates the skin

Thoracic window
Hello there. Not been on here for a while. Following a nine year history of lung cancer and pneumonectomy I unfortunately had to have clagetts procedure last year which has now left me with a thoracic window. Having been reassured at the time that I would have a closure within months with a skin graft

First shot of zoladex, got more questions
Good day to all, my father just had a laser turp procedure this monday, then yesterday he had a shot of zoladex, wondering how early might side effects come out? Another concern we have is this; we saw on youtube that the needle is supposed to snap back when the drug is applied properly, unfortunately

Urodynamics
I'm writing on behalf of my husband. Has anyone had experience of a Urodynamic and did the results give the consultant a clear next plan of action? He gets up to pee 3 or 4 times a night and sometimes in the evening and gets pressure in the bladder. Initially a TURP or green light laser op was recommended

Cold Sores and Rituximab
Hi Everyone Great news about the very positive effect the vaccines are having on Covid cases - onwards and upwards. Does anyone have any ideas why I have had 4 cold sores in 4 or 5 weeks? They started before my Covid vaccine so it isn't that. I had my last round of Rituximab in November 2020 after
