portal vein pressure test
Hi everyone. I havent posted for a few weeks . my partner Nick has now had all his tests, scans and a biopsy on his hhc tumor to confirm that it is actually HCC. He has been told that he cannot have ablation, which is what he wanted to have, because of the position of the tumor. He may possibly be

A clearer picture
I saw the surgeon yesterday. The biopsy confirmed my breast cancer diagnosis. I had to push for information as the pathology results are incomplete.So now I know I have a stage 2 invasive carcinoma, hormone positive. Cancer type to follow. I've been referred for an MRI. I'll have a follow up to discuss

Fibroscan CAP scores
There are a few things that I don’t understand about Fibroscan CAP scores. I have looked at the NICE 49 full guideline which can be found here: https://www.nice.org.uk/guidance/ng49/evidence/full-guideline-pdf-2548213310 Fibroscan CAP scores are discussed in detail on pages 62 to 74; the CAP scores

JFK - Kennedy and B12
Given the current coverage of the anniversary of the death of President Kennedy, it seems not unreasonable to post about his health issues - specifically the possibility of Pernicious Anaemia. This is a paragraph from near the end of the article. Not intended as anything other than an interesting footnote

Mild TI inflammation
Hi, I've just had my third colonoscopy and I found it very painful. I was in agony during various times of it being done. I managed to get a report (some pictures this time too!) On the report they wrote for the procedure discomfort: Mild: More than 2 episodes of discomfort without distress. On my report

Ground glass nodules
I am very concerned about being told I have a ground glass nodule. I am to have a follow-up CT scan in a year I have read very confusing information and I am wondering if anyone has any experience with such nodules.

So the have started me on another course of 6 rounds of Pacitaxol/Carboplatin. I’ve been told that my cancer is slightly more difficult to treat

Biopsy wait times
Hi all, my dad was diagnosed with lung cancer last week and understandably we are all devastated. He has not been well since Oct. X-ray in Dec and CT scan on 3rd Jan. He now has to go for a biopsy and the GP informed him the appointment could take up to 4 weeks. He called the appointment line today and

Dexamethasone
My cousin has a brain tumour and is receiving radiotherapy. In addition, she has been prescribed 2mg daily dexamethasone steroids. I'm wondering what is the difference between this drug and prednisolone?

No diagnosis but lots of symptoms
I have been diagnosed with hypothyroidism and am only a very low dosage of levothyroxine - which I don't think is managing my symptoms. However, I think that I may have lupus symptoms. I have been diagnosed with dry eyes and suffer badly with discomfort, grittiness, pain and light sensitivity. I have

update on my eyelid problem
Hello, all. I don’t know how many of you saw my previous post a few weeks ago when an ophthalmologist suspected basal cell carcinoma in my eyelid. I had a biopsy and yes he was correct and now I have to have eye surgery to have it removed. I know this is not the site for that, but I thought I would

Back in permanent AF and warfarin dose decrease
Hi All, I used to have paroxysmal AF which was ablated by Prof Schilling back in 2010. I had been in NSR. However I was diagnosed with prostate cancer back in the summer. I had huge delays and postponements before I had a biopsy. I eventually got the results 5 weeks later (rather than the two weeks promised
