interesting Xeloda trial
Hi friends, I listened to a presentation summarizing reports from ASCO 2023 related to MBC, and what really interested me was that for Xeloda, a fixed dose taken one week on/one week off, produced as good results as current standard of care with fewer side effects. Also: cream form of Voltaren/diclofenac

Stem cell transplant (SCT) 15 months on
I'm now 15 months after my SCT and in my my recent review my figures are improving:WBC 4.0 HB 139 Neut 2.3, lymph1.12 and platelets 106 ( highest for a couple of years). I also had my CD4 lymphocytes measured and can now come off Acyclovir and pentamidine. Hooray! I hated those nebulisers. This leaves

12 year old suffering IBSD...and Aire2 breath tests. Are they any good?
Hi there, My daughter is now 12 and has suffered most of her life with cramps, loose stools/diarrhoea and bloating. After various tests throughout the years we were told last year it was ibs-d. We've been left to our devices with no support and for a while during the summer, she was symptom free

Clinical Trial Considerations??
I’ve been presented with a clinical trial and I’m open to feedback. Background: I’m 71 and in pretty good health. I was diagnosed with two Gleason 6 lesions in late 2021 and went on AS. At that point, PSA was in the low 4’s. Earlier this year, PSA rose to 6.7. MRI and guided biopsy uncovered one Gleason

Pain management
Dear Friends: I am currently taking 20mg Methadone daily for RLS and will have painful hand surgery soon. Because Methadone blunts effects of opioids I am concerned about pain management. Any ideas how best to handle? Thank you.

Things, regimens,etc that are probably RLS worthless.
THINGS THAT DO NOT WORK FOR RLS All of us with RLS/PLMD have slightly different symptoms. We have tried various 'remedies' to try to relieve our RLS symptoms. We have read articles, some interesting, some ridiculous (bar of soap) that make amazing promises. And there is an entire array of things to

The Science is Coming as Fish Says
Just realised I posted on wrong community (LoL.) The AZD5069 and enzaltutamide trial has been widely reported in the UK press. Very small sample size to check the concept but it targets white myeloid blood cells which apparently can fuel tumour growth. The drug combo works is designed to block the CXCR2

Very promising trial!
Con't know if it's good for metastatic but still...CRPC is good enough Molecule name: AZD5069 “This is tremendously exciting and it suggests we have an entirely new way to treat prostate cancer on the horizon,” said Johann de Bono, a professor of experimental cancer medicine at the Institute of Cancer

stem cell transplant survival with MF
This link gives some figures for overall survival with or without a transplant. The headline really is the initial mortality close to the transplant is only worth risking if your MF is quite bad. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7218417/

Inflammation on colonoscopy
Hi everyone I had a colonoscopy today after around a year of diarrhoea, constipation, bleeding, tenesmus, BM at least 5x day and huge amounts of mucus. Lots of biopsies were taken and there were a couple areas of inflammation in my distal rectum, also some small haemorrhoids further down. The biopsy

Symptoms of Vitamin B12 deficiency - that I cannot find an answer to....
I had a low Vitamin B12 (125 mg/L) and low folate. One of my symptoms was severe pins and needles - particularly my legs, feet and genital areas. Is it common to have more severe symptoms in one leg more than the other? I have quite severe pins and needs in my left leg, and milder pins and needles

Anyone turn down a stem cell transplant?
I have post ET MF. Currently I'm on Rux and getting monthly cycles of 5 aza. I don't need transfusions. Day to day I feel pretty good and can do most of what I want. The SCT was recommended because of the risk of progression to AML. I'm finding the decision making to get the SCT very difficult. My

May be doing IV chemo for the first time. Need tips - really freaked out!
Hi, so I’ve successfully avoided doing IV chemo since 2019. But due to bone mets I just had hip surgery and the pills I’ve been on are not working. I was told by the surgeon 2 days ago that I need systemic treatment asap or I’ll die. I’m having a petscan tomorrow and depending on how it looks, I’ll

8CT Scan Protocol
I have SLL, been on BTKs for 2.5 years. I still have a lot of disease symptoms + drug side effects. It's been 2 years since my last CT scan and hematologist wants to do one not because nodes are palpably swollen but because of my anxiety about other symptoms. This doesn't seem reason to expose myself
