Made it Through 1st Week of Chemo
My treatment so far has been a loading dose of Fermagon and a week down of taxotere. I have at least 6 week cycles of chemo scheduled. So far so good no real symptoms that have changed my normal routine. No nausea, no digestive issues, no hair loss yet, no change in energy levels. I realize I'm a newbie

NEW FLU VACCINE
I am aware that for many years "experts" have said that a flu injection can affect people who have had strokes, and are on Warfarin. Now I understand, that the new flu vaccine for this year for the "over 65's" may react adversely with Warfarin. It apparently contains different enzymes etc. which cause

Urgent help needed for "leaky" legs!
Good morning! My husband, who has heart failure, and also has bilateral osteoarthritis of the knees, was diagnosed with cellulitis in June. Since then, he's had perpetually "leaky" legs, and is currently on his fifth course of antibiotics. I dress his legs twice a day for him, using Dermol cream,

Anyone else?
Hi all. I was wondering if anyone else has had experience of Sayana Press? It’s Depo Provera but you administer it yourself. I went back on Depo Provera in April to stop my long drawn out ovulation pain that lasts 10 days every month and on the 11th September I swapped over to sayana press. I had my

Riluzole.
New study below [1]. The androgen receptor [AR] remains the favorite target. We deprive them of androgen & gum them up with antiandrogens. We can target AR overexpression or accelerate AR decay. "Riluzole (marketed as Rilutek and Teglutik) is a drug used to treat amyotrophic lateral sclerosis." [

Hair loss 😭
Hi! I was diagnosed with PCOS three years ago and only recently I’ve been experiencing major hair loss. The top of my scalp is balding, it’s super irritated and I’m losing A LOT of hair. Anyone got any advice or tips on how to prevent this and share their experiences? I’m freaking out and don’t want

Hidden choline in supplements a risk for Met PCa?
Anyone here taking a Liposomal Vitamin C supplement? I'm wanting to better understand if Phosphatidylcholine (included in most Liposomal Vit C supplements) could be a potential problem for those with metastasised PCa? A daily dose of Liposomal C often contains 500mg of Phosphatidylcholine to increase

Ibogaine and Neuroplasticity
Neuroplasticity is the brain's ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections throughout life. Neuroplasticity allows the neurons (nerve cells) in the brain to compensate for injury and disease and to adjust their activities in response to new situations or to changes in their environment

Thank you everyone!
So a little update again! What a fortnight it’s been from having chest pains, to querying emphysema, to spirometry tests to a phone call just now from the consultant I seen privately. He rang to tell me he’s had the ct reviewed by a chest radiologist and there is no emphysema! It’s been a huge kick up

Epilim to Keppra
My wife has terrible shaking with Epilim and through our GP we are trying to ditch the Ep and move on to Keppra. Does one come off the ep entirely? We are on 150mg Lamotrigine, 400mg Epilim and 1000mg Keppra. Would the 400mg Epilim still cause shaking/tremors?

Loss of hair on legs
I was diagnosed with PMR in June 2018, and currently on 13.5mg of prednisone. I've noticed that the hair on my legs has stopped growing...I used to shave my legs every day. Is this part of the condition or a side effect from PMR? Thanks.
