I’ve been pretty rubbish with compliance of my levothyroxine up until 12 months ago when I made a concerted effort to take every day. Since then I have had significant health problems but normal TSH and free T4. My symptoms have been allergic in nature with angioedema of the airway, hives and joint pain

Truqap update
I persuaded my onc to start me on this new drug in April. Since starting I have had great results. My first set of labs was great, so we backed off the amount of drug due to diarrhea. I had one set back on my 2nd blood tests but adjusted my meds and am back to lower values on tumor markers. My

Normal CA-125
I am going in for a total hysterectomy on the 25th They suspect a Granulosa Cell Tumour due the presence of a mass on my ovary and thickened womb lining However my CA-125 is in the ‘normal’ range, I am just curious if others received a DX with normal CA-125? I am ready for whatever comes but just

I WANT TO PUT SOMEONE'S MIND AT EASE AFTER MY FIRST COLONOSCOPY
Hiya guys, I'll try to keep this as brief but as informative as possible to try and help someone. This whole thing started about 2/3 years ago when I started suffering with a stomachache here and there. It would wake me up in the middle of the night because it was that intense at times. This stomachache

Trigger for PMR
Is the forum aware that a tumour or similar was the trigger for PMR in someone? My rheumatologist sent me for tumour screening, a lung X-ray and a colonoscopy. Or is the cause mostly unknown?

Radiation Confusion- please help clarify
Referred to and met with radiation oncologist because my PC is active again after almost 3 years. This will be my first experience with radiation. It was explained and I thought I understood but am now completely confused - scans (PSMA, MRI, CT and bone scan) showed activity in prostate, SV, and one

Best Support To Send
Last year I had (non-breast cancer. Some dark times post-op, muchly lightened by a care package some friends put together and sent me. Books, gentle toiletries, that kind of thing.

Seen the Oncologist
The Oncologist examined me and has decided to send me for a scan to see if the lump has gotten any bigger. If so it could mean Surgery Radiotherapy or drugs, if its shrinking to stay on Tamoxifen and he would see me in months. So I'm just waiting for appointments at the moment Gordon (Redier)

PMR and brachial neuritis
It looks like I have developed a fairly rare condition called Parsonage-Turner syndrome (PTS), also called brachial neuritis. It started with terrible pain in the shoulder, so initially I thought it would appear in the other shoulder and be the beginning of a PMR relapse. But it is taking a different

anticoagulants-or not..
I have read a number of articles which I think say that the protocol for when to add to the CHaDs s score for prescribing anticoagulants with AF was based on patients who were very obviously symptomatic whereas many newer patients have fewer symptoms and discover AF through smart watches / other devices

Continuous constipation Dr's unwilling to help 😭
Hi all, I'm hoping someone can offer some kind of help. My 4 nearly 5(dec) son has suffered with constipation all his life, he didn't have a first poo until nearly 30hrs after he was born. The main problems he suffers is his stomach doesn't seem to push anything through. So he'll eat anything bloat massively

I love this sci-fi: Swimming Microrobots Deliver Cancer-fighting Drugs to Metastatic Lung Tumors in Mice
we are getting better and better… “The nanoparticles are made of tiny biodegradable polymer spheres, which are loaded with the chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin and coated with red blood cell membranes.” https://today.ucsd.edu/story/swimming-microrobots-deliver-cancer-fighting-drugs-to-metastatic-lung-tumors-in-mice

Please advice
My latest PSA on 6/11/24 was 1.06 up from 0.65 on 4/2/24. I have a meeting with my MO on 4/26 to discuss the next step. I was taking Opdivo immunotherapy from 2/2023 to 2/2024 for bladder cancer. so far my bladder cancer is in check so now I can focus on my PCA. Should I get a PSMA pet? is it time to

Finger misbehaving (!) ...Ulnar Deviation
Hello, I recently noticed my middle finger has gone bent towards the pinky finger. I couldn't believe my eyes and did internet search. It happens to people with RA and Lupus. A bit shocking. I have been doing mild squeezing exercise daily to help increase my hand strength. I think it may be due to

Dry eye medication
For several years since eye surgery I have been prescribed eye lubricants. The prescriptions always say Thealoz Duo Gel yet I have always been given the Thealoz Duo UD even when I questioned this several times. Recently I was given the Gel form and nothing else. Of course this is excellent at night
