How long do I need to stop Eliquis before eye surgery
I am thinking of having surgery on my eyes for Ectropion lower eye lid problem. I was told I would have to stop my Eliquis for 6 days before and two days after surgery. these seem long to me. I would like to know what is a reasonable time to go without the drug.

Zantac and Prostate Cancer
Many of you know Zantac has been in the news lately due to safety concerns. Has anyone discussed this with law firms which are attempting to develop cases for potential lawsuits against manufacturers and whoever else might be a target? I have had a brief discussion with one such firm. I don’t know

LDH levels and myelofibrosis
So I have MF and my doctor is very pleased that my hemoglobin is stable at 10,9 for the last 6 weeks and my platelets are holding between 450 and 600. However, on Friday I went for my regular visit for lab work and my LDH shot up to almost 900, which it is very high for me. I’ve tried to find information

A negative association between urinary iodine concentration and the prevalence of hyperuricemia and gout
In my mind, some sort of association between gout and thyroid has long seemed likely. However, it would probably be a gross over-simplification to suggest that everyone with gout is hypothyroid, and their gout was caused by that hypothyroidism. As so many papers, this too calls for further research.

Cll victim on Ibrutinib with obnoxious pain in knee would like to know if any of my friends here had heard of connexion between swellling of the knee and uric acid. Gout is a possibility. So far Tylenol, physical therapy arenot helpinag at all. I will try to see a rheumatologist soon to find out.

Bad breath
Does anyone else with PMR also suffer from bad breath? I do suffer from a dry mouth and I realize that could be caused by another autoimmune disease, Sjögren, but was wondering if PMR also contributed to bad breath. My husband says it’s like a sulphur smell..... charming! I’m afraid to talk to people

Gout??
Do any of you suffer with gout? It started when I was in my early 40s. For months I was in terrible pain (typical left toe) then nothing for years. I've had a few crystal attacks since but even those are few and far between. Until today! What agony?!? How do you deal with these vicious attacks.

Information for Mebendazole and Fenbendazole Users
There are some members on this forum who are taking either mebendazole or fenbendazole, two antihelminthic drugs that appear to have anticancer activity. The former is for human use and the latter for animals. I did a web and literature search to obtain more information on these drugs - this post summarizes

Levodopa-Induced Euphoria and Addictions in Parkinson’s. It's of concern for people with neuropsychiatric fluctuations between ON and OFF.
I'm referencing a 2017 research article. Some people have more significant neuropsychiatric fluctuations between ON and OFF levodopa drug treatment states. These people seem to be more at risk for triggered addictive behavior and drug abuse. The conclusion of the abstract is "The psychostimulant effects

Apixaban
Hi, has anyone had spinal anaesthesia for surgery whilst taking Apixaban. I know I will have to stop taking it 48 hours prior to surgery. I thought I had seen somewhere that’s it’s not safe and I want to have my facts right before seeing anesthetist on Thursday.

Hair transplant and CLL
Has anyone here with CLL had a hair transplant (after early stage diagnosis?) Is that safe or crazy? I'm relatively young to have it and I guess a bit vain but am not sure if the CLL makes no difference or the trauma encourages it.....

Prolactine levels treated with clioquinol and cabergoline of terminal androgen-independent prostate cancer.. A cure?
Hi all... Stumbled over some articles about how some terminal MPCa patients who due to gynecomastia were treated with clioquinol and cabergoline in order to lower their prolactine level.... and more or less got "cured"... Has anyone tried this or know something more about it? Sounds too good to be true

Combo pred and NSAID
I am on 5mg prednisone for the last month, having tapered down from 25mg since Nov 2019. I take the full dose at 7am but found that I have stiff shoulders and hands in the morning since I've been on the 5mg. I have been adding 60mg of arcoxia (NSAID) every 2nd day which helps a lot with the morning stiffness

New paper from Japan [1]. The antiandrogen flutamide was approved by the FDA for PCa thirty years ago. Bicalutamide had been approved by the FDA a few years earlier. The paper presents an anecdotal case of a man "in whom flutamide controlled disease progression for 10 years" "after bicalutamide failure

Azathioprine and Mesalazine
The saga continues... I started taking azathioprine a week ago despite speaking to a pharmacist that my mesalazine was mentioned in the aza leaflet. He told me not to worry. It was fine. Today I was picking up my repeat prescriptions and saw that my more regular pharmacist was in and So I decided
