Total Hip Replacement Decision
Hello Friends, I have ET-MPL 515L, and this is year 10 with the disease, and I am doing well thanks to Pegasys. I have been informed, due to arthritis, I need a total hip replacement. Those of us with MPN's are at increased risk of vertebrae and hip fractures, YIKES! In discussions with my Oncologist

Steve 6 and a half years since heart failure.
My heart problems materialised when my customer said to me you look terrible as I wheeled a barrow up a ramp with heavy concrete blocks. Next morning I was in a ward being told I had heart failure. Was a shock and after 2 years on meds was finally sent in for a aortic root and valve replacement. So

Upset after consultation
Hi everyone. Sorry for long post but I think it helped me writing this out. I just had a consultation with rheumatologist which didn't go well. I had antibiotics back in Feb and came off the Baricitinib for a week and then was referred for colonoscopy/biopsies. I spoke to helpline and nurse said

Dad’s story
I’m writing on behalf of my dad who was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis back in 1982 when he was 28. He managed his condition very well with no medication, just diet and a healthy lifestyle until things started getting worse around 12 years ago. He was put on a medication which controlled things

Update on...Buprenorphine seems to be failing! Help!
Well, thank you for all the replies and the wisdom which has been offered. I saw my GP yesterday and explained the situation, told him of the solutions others had found (Lotte) and then asked him what his advice was. He thought about it and offered taking Sifrol as a first solution which I told him I'd

Attended Late Effects Clinic - Answers at last
Yesterday I received the news that my two year post op checkup for Stage 3b cancer was still clear and led nicely to being seen at the clinic in Clatterbridge today. It was so nice for a specialist to be listening, explaining what the probable cause was and then offering solutions where possible.
