What It's Like to Be in a Lung Cancer Clinical Trial - Part Two, The Clovis Pharmaceuticals Phase II Trial for CO-1686
In February 2015 I found myself sitting by myself in a car in a parking lot, summoning the courage to read the CT scan report I had just picked up to take to my oncologist. This scan marked the six month mark in my first line treatment with Tarceva. As I read the news that my cancer was starting to grow

Newbie
Hi I am a Newbie on here but not to PCOS. I was diagnosed about 16 years ago. I have been on metformin and spirolactone for about ten years. The only benefit i have seen is that i have not become diabetic. I am frustrated at the effects PCOS has on my body. I am the only person in my family to be diagnosed

Update since supplementing Vits for 3 weeks
As I wrote previously, I was on Metformin 1000mg for a "diagnosis" of Type 2 diabetes, which after advice on here, I found out that it was the culprit in malabsorption of B12 (mine was 199 and insufficient). With Drs agreement I stopped taking the Metformin and started supplementing B12, Selenium,Vit

Lychee, litchi, liechee, liche, lizhi or li zhi, or lichee (Litchi chinensis
New studies below. A bit odd, today, reading of how the lychee fruit has regularly killed malnourished Indian children [1], & that the fruit inhibit epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in PCa [2]. I had a post last month on: "Metformin & the Epithelial–Mesenchymal transition [EMT]" The PCa study

Good news
I've had B12 deficiency caused by metformin taken for Type II diabetes. I saw the GP last Friday and I seem to be successfully reversing the diabetes so she is taking me off the metformin! I've got a B12 injection due this Friday which I want to take. I just wonder how long it will take without metformin

Diabetes gone?
I have type 2 diabetes. I have been treating my high blood sugar with insulin for the past six months. I have recently been experiencing a lot of hypoglycemic events. In light of this, I stopped using insulin. I have been testing my body/pancreas out and my blood sugar is completely normal. I know this

Vitamin D3 deficiency
I've just had Dr on phone telling me I am Vitamin D deficient. He said my levels were under the NHS lab of 30 (which he says is their range for deficient) and they didn't even register. He is prescribing me 3200 D3, which after reading posts on here, I feel is not enough. I asked him if I should take
