I have read a bit about posts regarding piriformis syndrome, but am unsure as to that is what my issue is. Basically since Wed I have had pretty bad issues with my right buttock, going up to lower back and down my right leg. I am unsure as to what I need, a physio, speak to the doctors, x ray? It

No news is Good News
The definition of pain is, 'A highly unpleasant physical sensation caused by illness or injury'. Of course there is also the silent pain of mental or emotional trauma, and throughout all our lives, all of us will have experienced both. Many of us will have woken up this morning experiencing one or both

Statins
I've got enough pain to deal with from my
fractures
and I'm worried about causing additional aches and pains with Statins. Having said that I'll probably give them a trial with the three times a week but I'm interested to hear views of others.

Easy-to-deliver mRNA treatment shows promise for stopping flu and Covid-19 viruses.
The treatment uses a type of CRISPR to target viral RNA and appears to stop replication of both viruses in the lungs. With a relatively minor genetic change, a new treatment developed by researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology and Emory University appears to stop replication of both flu viruses

Stage 4 Metastatic Prostate Cancer AND NOW also Parkinsonism and PSP
You would think that one progressive, terminal illness would be enough to deal with, right? Well, my husband was just also diagnosed with Parkinsonism (not Parkinson's Disease) and PSP (Progressive Subneural Palsy). We thought his issues were due to either chemo brain or ADT. After seeing a Neurologist

Bone health a d Methotrexate
Has anyone had any change in their bone density after being on Methotrexate for an extended time like 2 plus years? I had a spontaneous fracture of my knee and tibia. The orthopedic surgeon said it is osteoporosis causing this.

Opinion on a scan
Doctor order x-rays of hip and femur to check for any
fractures
. The report can back ok and stated there was no indication of presumed met on femur. Would an x-ray not pick a spot that supposedly bone scan did?

TREATMENT FOR PSEUDOMONAS.
Hi going on Meropenem again. This is the third time since September. I've had two X rays still showing a shadow on my left lung waiting for a Ct Scan. At the moment I feel like it's never ending. 😕😡 Holly

Hello Good people I did PSA after 1month is increased from 0.29 to 0.39 directly i informed my Dr. in Germany he told me to check up PSA every month. So he recommended if i reach PSA 1.0 =The development suggest that the medication alone is slowly missing part of it's efficiency. Check PSA in monthly

Nsaids and a fracture
I have been reading that nsaids are really bad when recovering from a fracture. I couldn't find any definitive as to whether or not prednisone interferes with the healing of a fracture. If anybody knows anything about this I would appreciate hearing from you. Thanks

Treatment plan at Mayo after PSMA scan
Moving forward toward SRT at Mayo after PSMA found intense uptake in surgical bed at left/posterior aspect of bladder. Radiologist is ordering MRI and Lupron after 2 weeks of casodex and will drop casodex after 4 weeks continuing Lupron for 6 months. The ADT approach sounds a little weak to me. I was

Omeprazole/Lansoprazole
I spoke with my GP yesterday and he has now prescribed 10mg Omeprazole and after reading the side effects , it kind of defeats the object as it can increase the risk of
fractures
and Predisolone can increase the risk of Osteoporasis. I am on 5mg Predisolone a day for PMR.

Micronutrients used in study protocol reversed my osteoporosis though taking prednisone for PMR
After I couldn’t tolerate AA and Forteo landed me in hospital for shortness of breath I researched a study protocol used in Canada which had good results. This was the COMB protocol using micronutrients: It used: fish oil, K2, D3 and strontium Citrate. I followed this for only a year and half because
