What to do next for treatment
I have prostate cancer which started over 3 years ago, I did chemo and lupron which seemed to work great for couple of years then PSA started going up like to 122. I must mention that I have the BRCA 2 gene which makes my cancer somewhat aggressive. My onc put me on Xtandi which worked for 7-8 mos but

Post 591 Trigeminal Neuralgia 30 Jan 2020
Welcome to the absolute worst pain that āYOUā can ever imagine. If āYOUā get unlucky enough to contract this problem, steel yourself for some very hard times. Initially it is not so bad, more of an annoyance than anything but as time progresses watch out. At first it felt like something was stuck

Pain and bleeding during sex
Around fall of 2018, I started to have sex with a new partner. Prior to this, I have had 4 other partners. No issues at all with my vagina besides like a yeast infection. The first time I had sex with my new partner, it was normal. But one time during sex I noticed that it hurt and I bled afterwards.

continuing low folate levels
Hi I have had under active thyroid for about 10 years. In July last year I was treated for low folate and ferretin levels. My hb was fine. Anyway, I took the folic acid for 3 months and the ferrous sulphate for 6 months. I finished the folic acid about 3 months ago. I have had a call from the dr tonight

Help for neuropathy in foot
Can anyone give me ideas on how I can help the neuropathy in my foot? I have trapped nerves in my back which causes more problems in my foot than anywhere else and was diagnosed with neuropathy a few years ago. I usually only experience cramps in my toes and general pain and tingling in my foot.

MRI yesterday 25 Jan 2020
WOW that went well, even the young lady putting in the ports for the contrast was gentle. Admittedly I did tell her that I am a total crybaby when it comes to needles, so she was forewarned and very gentle. We actually went don from a 21 guage to a 23 gauge so that worked out well. The chap running

Xofigo (Radium 223) to take with anything else as PSA levels have rocketed since coming off hormone treatment?
My father is hormone resistant and been fighting prostate cancer since 2013. He is 82, a recent scan showed his cancer hasn't spread to organs so has been approved to try Radium 223. His PSA levels have rocketed to 400 which is higher than when he had been on any hormone treatment, which he was taken

Phew!
As Mark Twain said The reports of my impending death are greatly exaggerated Just went to see the ENT specialist and he said EVERYTHING IS CLEAR I said how do you explain this then and showed him the encologist letter. He was visibly shocked and said he knew nothing about it. He read the X-ray report

Ferrous Sulfate
So I finally got my blood results. Dr hadnāt added transferrin saturation to the test but I managed to get the nurse to add it when I went in for the bloods. Ferritin 91 Transferrin saturation 19.9 Now on 400mg of iron daily & a referral to movement clinic. Are there likely to be options to help me get

Getting off Gabapentin
Has anyone here found that Gabapentin loses its effectiveness? When I started taking gabapentin before my infusion and it really did help. It stopped my legs and helped me sleep. Now, I donāt think it is working and I want off of gabapentin When I started, I quickly went up to 1800mg a day, gabapentin

Grrrrr. Rant on docs.
I've apparently run across a rule-follower of a doc. Moved to a new city, and saw her for dizziness, RLS and neck pain. After a bunch of referrals to other incompetent docs, and no relief for a single symptom, I asked her for valium that I could take when I woke up in the middle of the night in agony
