liver transplant : build up
hi everyone I’m really in need of some support. I’m 37 and have liver failure . I went to see my consultant in Belfast a few weeks ago and was my doctor when I attended Antrim hospital hospital. She was extremely direct and blunt with myself. She said my score is is high but didn’t tell me the range.

PSA of <0.1 undetectable?
I am on ADT, lupron and Zytiga, at Kaiser Oakland. My latest PSA came back as <0.1. My MO sent me a message with the results: "congratulations, great news, your PSA is undetectable!" I thought undetectable was 0.01, is it more likely she misread the number or that the lab used by Kaiser only reports

I am helping to look after my 88 year old sister at present. She has been prescribed ambulatory oxygen therapy following a diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension, I think related to her Protein S Deficiency. She is frail and even the small oxygen cylinders are heavy and difficult for her to use but oxygen

SPECT scan horror
I had a SPECT scan after first does of Pluvicto. I had no idea how horrible a scan could be. There are things that project out to get as close to you as possible. I have had many CT scans MRIs PET scans but this is different. I do have a bit of claustrophobia but never felt this horrible before. They

Anticoagulant for AF
I've seen some helpful posts on this site and I hope someone can help me further. I was recently diagnosed with AF but I don't have a fast heart rate. My pulse rarely gets to 59. My doctor has prescribed an anticoagulant (Eliquis) but I'm scared of taking it because of the side effects. I had two bleeding

The ups and downs of our rollercoaster OC journeys
When I recovered from debulking earlier this year I gave myself a good talking to and vowed not to let myself go from blood check to blood check worrying about them. I was so pleased my first check showed bloods were normal so thought my plan was working but then prior to the 6 month check developed

Afib and PE
Hi I have already felt supported and informed by this group and wanted to share my experience in the hope I can continue to learn about my recent diagnoses. I am 67 and other than having COPD was in reasonable health even though I am a bit overweight and probably drink more wine than is good for me
