Question re: Ablation of Liver Mets
Hello! I've had liver mets - in addition to bone - for a little over a year. When I was scheduled for a biopsy of the liver (a year ago), I asked my doc if they could ablate the tumor at that time and she "found/chose" a surgeon who would do this. So it seemed to be non-routine. I received a bill

I have RLS and recently updated iron labs revealed the following: Ferritin=59.2ng/mL & Transferrin Saturation = 53%.
I have been taking oral iron supplements (Iron sulfate 325mg) and Vitamin C 200 mg daily on an empty stomach but the ferritin has been going up but slowly but the transferrin saturation has gone up much higher. Should I continue with my iron supplements?

Is it safe to take mesalazine/octasa long term for ulcerative colitis?
Hi everyone, I'm Claire and was diagnosed with mild/moderative ulcerative colitis last year. Apart from an initial flare up (followed by diagnostic procedures leading to a diagnosis), my only symptoms have been an uncomfortable/slightly painful feeling in my stomach/upper intestine. My gastroenterologist

Mastectomies
My partner (38) was diagnosed with stage 4 Ovarian cancer in June after many earlier chances of diagnosis. There was also a mass in one of her breasts. She had gene testing and is BRCA 1 positive. She has had 4 doses of chemo, debulking surgery (which went well) and two further doses of chemo. She

Hi all, I was diagnosed with IBS some 30 years ago, but think I had it a long time before that. I used to have flare ups, but now I have symptoms most days and not having stomach discomfort takes me by surprise.Had lots of tests, blood and stools, nothing found. But GP thought upper right quadrant

My docetaxel experience so far
For those who may be interested, I started docetaxel chemo on 20th October and have just had my 3rd infusion on 8th December. I did moderate fasting the day before for the first infusion but haven't bothered since. I wore iced gloves and socks and munched on ice cubes during the chemo sessions. I've

recurrence after lobectomy
Hello, I am 53 and live in the UK and I stop smoking in my late 20’. I had a lobectomy of my right lower lobe in April 2022 to remove a minimally invasive adenocarcinoma staged pT1 N0, M0, PL0, R0 (found by complete accident on an abdomen CT scan.) I begged for adjuvant therapy after the operation

First night on Buprenorphine
So today I took 0.2 mg of Buprenorphine, thinking it was better to start low. The effect was incredible. My legs didn't move at all. In fact, the effect was so effective that I even got scared. My body was so relaxed. I got a little anxious that I may not wake up if I felt sleep. I layed there amazed

Median PFS for FCR treated CLL patients with IGHV-M was 14.6 years vs 4.2 years for patients with IGHV-UM. V+O and I+R look to be superior

Sustained remissions in CLL after frontline FCR treatment with very-long-term follow-up,

Elevated Gamma-GT and gallbladder stone
I posted a while back about how my GGT value was increasing over time and with every repeat blood test it was elevated further. All other enzyme values in normal range, I had an ultrasound this week and it showed one gallbladder stone. I have no symptoms of gallbladder issues - no abdominal pain etc

CRS4PC and Zytiga side effects ?
My hubby is 69 and recently started Zytiga three weeks ago and it seems that he has developed moderate fatigue and low appetite since one week ago. I’m wondering if this could be a side effect of the Zytiga or if anyone thinks it’s an immunity infection attack.

Colonoscopy
Hello, I’ve been having various bowel issues for the past few months, ie. constipation, bloating, slight pain in lower back, bit of diarrhoea and my Dr would like me to go for a colonoscopy. As there’s no bleeding, I assumed it could be something else. Am I wrong to think this? Any advice welcome
