Now been advised cancer has spread to both lungs š
Spoke to my consultant yesterday, it seems my nurse specialist had not given me the correct information. Cancer signs are now on both lungs, in my peritoneal area, and under my spleen (not the spleen itself). I am getting some pain in my lung area and it's really worrying me š Surgery is still

Would oral iron be useful given my Iron levels (in description)?
I have RLS and got some bloodwork done. The following came up: IRON , SERUM 91.0 Āµg/dL TOTAL IRON BINDING CAPACITY ( TIBC), SERUM 353 Āµg/dL FERRITIN , SERUM 116.1 ng/mL I was wondering if Oral Iron would be useful for me or end up giving me toxic levels of it.

Hi, Iāve had stomach discomfort for more than 30 years. Had every test endoscopy twice, every medication and no change in fact itās worse than itās ever been.

Recent iron results - not sure what to do now
Hi everyone, I've recently had an iron panel (NHS) after 10 weeks of supplementing with 1 then 2 x Three arrows per day, as well as taking cacao liquid (as recommended here) in the hope of increasing my stubbornly low ferritin. However I'm not sure how to read the results so any advice very welcome

Left Basilar Atelectasis and consolidation, elevation of left hemidiaphragm
Your experience with atelectasis and consolidation including elevated diaphragm? Pulmonologist much better than thoracic surgeon I'm guessing? My primary referred me to thoracic surgeon for new 12mm lung nodule. The surgeon (seems very highly rated, lots of experience) said the nodule was not suspicious

first b12 injection learning all I can
hello, first post so Iāll try to keep it concise as I have a lot going on. I appreciate any tips and/or input you care to share. Iām 55years old, post menopausal and I have hashimotos, lupus, anti phospholipid syndrome and had a thyroidectomy years ago. So figuring out symptoms has always been a challenge
