Hemosiderin staining?
Hi, Has anyone else experienced this? I’ve woken up today with rust like staining, mainly on my left hand with a little on my right. No logical cause from anything I’ve touched. Googling seems to suggest it is hemosiderin staining, though they are mainly US sites. This could make sense as I still

repost - cancer progression - next steps?
I am reposting in the hope of receiving a response regarding best next steps. Please see my profile for history on my dad's condition. He went to the ER last weekend with severe flank pain and CT revealed left-sided hydronephrosis as likely cystic soft tissue mass obstructing the left ureter. An anterograde

burning tongue
recently my usual anti inflammatory tablets were not available so they switched me to CELECOXIB. There is a side effect where you can get sores in your mouth. It did seem like I had small ulcers at tip of tongue but my whole mouth burned and the side of my tongue looked bumpy and swollen slightly.

radiation question, possible kidney stones.
my husband had SBRT (prostate, few spots on spine, and one rib) in August and November 2023 with no side effects. He recently had lab work and It showed blood in urine, high protein, and crystals. He had an ultrasound to rule out kidney stones and it showed nothing so he is now scheduled for a Uro CT

When were you going to mention I had early CKD? Oh I see, stage II isn’t anything to worry my little head about 😠
As my profile name implies, I have spent 20+ years in the healthcare industry. It took longer than I’d like to admit to awakening to how broken, corrupted and frankly dangerous this “Healthcare Industrial Complex” is. I recently had my annual exam with a PCP that I have always had great respect for

Ureter Restriction from Radiation Treatments?
While I don't have any symptoms (yet), a CT scan and ultrasound tests show that the lower part of my right ureter tube is very narrow and causing the kidney to swell, apparently from restricted flow of urine through the ureter. My University of Chicago Medicine urologist suspects scarring in the ureter

Just a touch away: CT-optimal touch perception and its influence on pain and itch
Psychologist Larissa Meijer has discovered that gentle caresses from a partner can provide relief from chronic pain. This treatment has no side effects and can be done at home. It should normally be free too 🙂 Meijer has demonstrated the effect of light stroking on pain and itchiness in Parkinson's

Ivermectin may help with cancer treatments
Studies of various chronic myeloid leukemia cell lines show that ivermectin kills these lines by inducing mitochondrial dysfunction and the production of free radicals. In mice with leukemia, ivermectin increases the influx of chloride ions in the cells, promoting cell death. When ivermectin is combined

What a week!! (Starting HD, continued)
Where was I? Ah, yes. I had just spent 3 days in the hospital getting in-patient dialysis for my first three rounds. Low Venous Flowrate, but they seemed to handle it, and ordered a Fistulagram. So, this past Monday, I drove to Duluth (114 miles, door to door) for that procedure, done in the Interventional

belimumab Infusions
Hi all, I’m suppose to be starting belimumab infusions next week, however there is a shortage in the medication so I’m just waiting for a new date I’m on all the usual medication for lupus but nothing seems to be working, I have had rituximab last year and the first lot lasted 5 months which was great

shrinking lung syndrome
Has anyone else been diagnosed with a rare condition called shrinking lung syndrome. It’s so rare, approximately only 0.5-1.1 % people with Lupus get it. I’m real scared as at time I feel like I’m slowly suffocating! Still getting more tests done to see if diaphragm isn’t partially paralyzed. Did you
