euthyrox and hot flushes
I have been taking euthyrox for at least 20 years (now on 125 a day) - was prescribed for underactive thyroid. Ten years ago I got breast cancer and went through mastectomy, chemo and radio + tamoxifen I was 55 at the time and chemo pushed me into menopause literally overnight For the last 1 years

This time last year I found a lump at the age of 36. We had just moved house and area, and had 2 children age 2 and 6. Very soon I was told I had beat cancer. This was a huge shock. Mum had had it age 45 and now it had got me. I had 3 lymph nodes removed and it was in 1 and just starting to affect the

Please Tell me about Immunotherapy.
My Mother (56) was diagnosed with Breast Cancer of Stage 3. 11 out of 17 lymp nodes positive. ER and PR positive and Her2 negative. She underwent Mastectomy, Chemotherapy. Now her Radiotherapy will start in 2-3 days. Our oncologist told us that in third stage there are high chances of relapse in future

Link between elevated liver enzymes and gall bladder removal?
I stuck my head in the sand for a year just hoping this PBC thing would go away. It didn't. I've finally scheduled a liver biopsy for the middle of March. During the visit to the specialist to get the ball rolling he said something curious about the results of the abdominal scan conducted last year and
