Effect of chemotherapy on RLS
It might seem strange to be asking about chemotherapy, but a few years ago I had breast cancer and was given a course of chemotherapy as part of the treatment (successful as I am still here!). As soon as I started this my RLS stopped completely, and for over 5 months afterwards I was still clear. Then

Help! Any experiences with Ozurdex implant?
Hi! Sorry if this is a long post, I'm new! Bit of back story; few years ago I was diagnosed with eye cancer and received proton beam therapy treatment for it. This worked excellent and killed off the tumour! As expected I've now begin to lose my central vision due to a bleed cause by radiation damage

Radiation Therapy
Me again. My dad just had his first consultation for radiation treatment. So many questions after we left as this particular Doctor was absolutely horrible. Needless to say we won’t be going back to her, but now my dad does not want radiation treatment. He is 94 and just recently diagnosed with Bone

Are high doses of prednisone dangerous for my cirrhosis?
I recently started getting what looked like canker sores which eventually covered the inside of both cheeks, tongue, and gums. I saw someone in my doctors office who gave me dexamethasone and carafate mouth rinses. They did nothing. I saw my dentist, who was completely puzzled and sent me to an oral

Steroid pump for secondary adrenal insufficiency with traumatic brain injury
Hi. I’m new on this site but I wanted to share my AI stories, answer some questions and hopefully find some more resources to help us with this challenging condition. I’m reading that a lot of people on this site seem to be taking their steroids orally. I too was started on oral medication, dexamethasone

The story so far lol
Hi all, I eventually got a phone call from my consultant, yesterday. He said my esr was raised but not too much. He is referring me to an endocrinologist, but still maintains that because my serum electrolytes have been ok, that my adrenal glands should be functioning ok... However, he will still refer

I have about 2 years of peace between

Tightening of foreskin
Hi, So I know it is likely another balantis post exists however my question is quite specific and none seem to help. I recently had thrush, which has been treated with clotrimazole 1% cream. This was started 6 days ago and itching has pretty much all gone. The issue I have now is the foreskin has started

Zytiga plus Dexamethasone
Anyone any had experience of this combination as a replacement for Zytiga/Prednizolone whilst on Zoladex please? My PSA had remained stable around 100 -110 for 6 months but then rose swiftly to 236 over 2 months! So, last week, one CT scan and one bone scan later I am being advised by my MO 'No measurable
