surviving the rat race.
I moved cities recently to peruse my art career. Which was a bold step for me. I don’t really like change. Although I was excited about the possibility of finally living my dream and having opportunities in this town I didn’t have before. I could reinvent myself. Live the life I’ve always wanted. Well

Tooth extraction after receiving Zometa?
Has anyone had a tooth extraction after receiving a Zometa infusion? My tooth extraction is scheduled for 9/18 but it’s not related to my metastatic breast cancer or any drugs I have received. It’s due to internal resorption and is being removed 8 weeks after my first Zometa infusion. My oncologist thinks

Atrophic Gastritis
Hi everyone, I have deen trying slippery elm to no avail for general stomach discomfort. I sometimes feel as if I have a 'fist' moving around in my stomach. The 'fist'feeling then just stays perfectly still, I then feel like I need to stretch to accomodate the 'fist' and then it feels a little better

Iron blood test - definitive list
I got my recent blood test back, haven’t yet posted all results to my profile, but my ferritin was rock bottom (7 out of 7-271 range) so I’m going to get a full iron test before I share all the numbers here and decide my next med change. What should I ask for: Iron Total iron-binding capacity (TIBC

Complementary therapies?
I have just come to the end of the chemo radiation and seemingly I now wait about three months before having a PET scan and a fibroscopy to see how effective the treatment has been and what might be the next steps. Just for my own sense of well being I am thinking about trying some complementary therapies

Radiation
I had the standard IMRT for my pca back in 2013. I was told it was a lifetime dose. Is that true with the newer forms of radiation treatment?

Reaching out to others with anxiety
I've lived with panic attacks and extreme anxiety since I was 18. They began when I left home to go to college. I've had decades of engaging in therapy, 12-step support groups and Recovery groups . The possibility of getting Covid has made me afraid to go to my 12-step groups in person. Being on-line

hi there Very low. My midway scans are showing my lymph nodes that grew after my huge debulking surgery in March have not shrunk with the chemotherapy and I have some nodules on peritoneum ( nothing in any organs) So he can’t say that the chemo hasn’t worked in other type cancer but it’s not doing

cholecystectomy and cirrhosis
I’ve been advised that I need a cholecystectomy due to a polyp (9 x 6.5 mm). I have cirrhosis, but am fully compensated. I have been told that this operation can be very dangerous for someone with cirrhosis. Any help or advice please?

Not impressed
Decided to go through my medical notes such as they are, and blood tests again now I'm more sensible again. All hospital consultations are missed off and consequently diagnoses. Oh, and there is a gp consultation noted that never took place. Basically my notes appear to be a mess. What really

Thyroid cancer
I have a close friend who’s just been diagnosed with thyroid cancer so is waiting for surgery. She has been told this is not the worst cancer to get and it will not kill her. So she is trying to be upbeat about it. Can you live normally without a thyroid please? I’d really like to give her some optimistic

ctDNA - signatera
has anyone had the signatera bloodwork test? It is somewhat new science and compares a current blood draw to original tumor biopsy tissue. It then look for a match and works to to detect circulating tumor dna (ctDNA) in blood. It assigns a numbers as to how much ctDNA is found. My Mets are bone only
