Infection?
Good day gents I’m on day 11 post circumcision, I have yellow stuff on my incision lines and/ stitches ….can this be an infection ? Second question , is it ok for me to take warm baths with Epsom salts instead of me putting warm water in a container and cleaning the wound using cotton wool ?

What's next on tap
Well the 12th cycle of carboplatin and cabataxal is on May 20th, this treatment regime has been successful bringing my Psa down from 243 to 6. Although I have been told 12 cycles are on the far end of what should be taken, so far I have been tolerating it pretty well, aside from burning pain with urination

Feeling helpless
Hi all. I've had IBS since I was 16, I'm now 42 and the past year has been the worse. I feel like I've tried everything and I just don't know where to turn anymore. I have IBS-C and although I have a bowel movement every day I still get terrible upper cramps. I've had all the tests and gastroenterologist

The Magnitude Trial (and me, with scatological references)
This is a phase 3, large number international trial of the combination of abiraterone (abi + prednisone) with a newer PARP inhibitor (PARP-I), Niraparib (nira). It is run by Janssen/Johnson & Johnson who hold the patent for abi. They are no doubt hoping to extend the patent and make a combined abi/nira

Ferritin of 56
I was taking iron tablets for anaemia for a few months, and when I was re-tested recently my ferritin was 56. The GP advised me that I was no longer anaemic and to stop the iron. I am extremely tired and I have diffuse hair loss. I have started taking a maintenance dose of ferrous sulphate again and

Beaten :(
I just attempted W9R1 but didn't complete it. I had a niggle in one hip and pulling in the opposite calf, so I walked after 25 mins. Not sure if that was the sensible option to avoid injury, or telling myself that as a justification for stopping... Just want to keep myself accountable to you lovely folk

Adeyababa with ET
Hello friends, I am from Ethiopia and I take Asprin daily and ferrous sulfate daily. My platelet number was 987, 000 last month when I tested. I was covid positive in February and tested negative after 14 days of quarantine time. I am worried to decide to take my first AZ vaccine. I feel always fatigued

Weird side effect or issue from T4?
I've been having this about 3 weeks. About half an hour/one hour after taking Levothyroxine, me head feels 'swimmy' a bit like if you've ever had valium or lightheadedness after a drink on an empty stomach. It's not very pleasant (a bit like a virus) and it seems to go on for the rest of the day. It

Time to move on from xtandi? And Ra-223 before jevtana? Thoughts?
Hi everyone, My father just switched his MO ( due to insurance issues) he is currently on xtandi His bone scans are stable but his PSA is going up. (From 16 to 20 in a month) His new MO says we can be proactive and mentioned starting him on Radium 223 and possibly provenge before we move on to jevtana

I hate psychiatrists and I dont know what to do
Okay, this is gonna be a long one so buckle up! I had my first huge panic attack when I was 17. It was in class, triggered by a random dizzy spell. I went to my primary care doctor and told her about it. She immediately prescribed me .25 Xanax to take as needed and Zoloft. I didn't even know anything

Severely weak. Can I try heme iron peptides?
Could my trembling/vibrations/debility be caused by iron deficiency as ferritin was 17 (saturation n iron stores also on lower side). I also feel cold. After taking iron, I feel almost normal for sometime n the trembling lessens too, then again feel weak by evening. if I don't take the iron in evening

Driving and epilepsy
I've had epilepsy since age 15. I'm 48 now. I've driven some parts in life and have been stuck on bus the other half. Finally got an older car and license back and so darn happy to drive again!!!! Did anyone know that valium can stop seizures? I just found that out a few years ago. I'm desperately trying

Blood Test Results from GP, very ill and no diagnosis
Hello, Sorry I know some of these bloods will be irrelevant to the thyroid forum but posting just in case someone who knows better than me spots something. Background- I’ve been ill since 14, originally diagnosed with ME/CFS. Only thing that routinely showed up in tests was extremely low blood pressure

Eylea experiences please
I was very frightened to have a sudden extreme distortion in vision in one eye just before Christmas- my optician immediately referred me to a consultant in January and l have a macular oedema (think that’s correct) probably due to extreme short sight -12dioptre in that eye. I was told the only treatment
