Is iron spray any good for night-time dosing?
Has anyone any experience with using iron supplement in spray format? Presumably you’d need a few squirts but better tolerated? Contains iron in the form ferric sodium edtate & ferric ammonium citrate.

One year, one month post transplant
Hello. I post sometimes but apparently have not “officially” introduced myself. I received a deceased donor kidney transplant on June 11, 2023. I was incredibly lucky. I begged my family and friends to donate to me, but they all refused except one friend who got tested and his function was not good enough

a new platform for ADC development….no sorry, it’s DAC this time! not PCa related but hopefully soon
”Orum has granted Vertex rights to conduct research using its TPD² approach to developing degrader-antibody conjugates (DACs), next-generation versions of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) which use antibodies to precisely deliver small molecule targeted protein degrader payloads to cancer cells and other

Worse after an UTI and Covid
Good afternoon. About five weeks ago I developed an UTI for which I took three separate courses of antibiotics as it wouldn't clear. In the same period I contracted Covid which didn't affect me much. I only found out that I had it because a friend who I'd spent time with had done a Covid test and it

Considering a change of dialysis centers
So, my nephrologist just up and left. I'm sure there was more going on behind the scenes than I'm aware of, but it was so sudden for me. He was also the consulting MD at the dialysis clinic. I'm not worried about finding another nephro, though. The nephrology department I deal with is a crack team

results of nail biopsy
At the end of last week I got my results of my nail biopsies. It is no fungus, no infection and best of all no cancer. They do not know what it actually is despite using numerous tests. A very happy outcome, as all medics seen in the process suspected subungual melanoma. I can live with not knowing

Pluvicto and Renal Issues
I have had normal physical impact from my 4 previous Pluvicto injections: fatigue, reduced appitite, and additional sleep requirements. My fifth injection, 10 days ago, however, resulted in me being bedridden most of the time, no appetite, excessive sleep, stomach pain, and, and what I believe, severe

Medication Change mid-Induction
Hello, I have renal limited vasculitis and am wondering if anyone has experience with a switch from Rituximab to Cyclophosphamide after 3 months of initial induction therapy? My first treatment that started almost 3 months ago was Rituximab with Prednisone. At first things were going well with eGFR

Hi Everyone, I am a 42 year old man and I had a kidney transplant 1 year ago.
Hi, as stated above I had a kidney transplant last year. It has been very successful. Having said that I do have some anxiety because I have been drinking quite a lot of black tea this past couple of months. Stopped drinking it early part of the week. I am having irregular heart beats and some dizzy

LVV Relapse Update
Good news … after 2 weeks at 25mgs pred, my markers are back to “normal”, ie CRP at 2 and ESR is 8. I have had two TCZ jabs a week apart, so could this have already created the masking effect, which had waned with the 4 weekly jabs? Now to begin the taper: 20mgs for 2 weeks and then 17.5 x 2 etc.

Finally found some relief for IC
Hi everyone, I’m 48 & was diagnosed with IC & Hunners ulcers after having a bladder lift in 2005 & having the mesh fall apart & get stuck in my pelvic floor wall. The mesh was of course toxic and did a number on my bladder as well. I tried EVERYTHING you could imagine & kept track of when pain would

electric toothbrush, and Trigeminal Neuralgia
hello everyone, does anyone use an electric toothbrush and they also have trigeminal neuralgia?, I stopped using my electric toothbrush in fear of the pressure causing/triggering the pain. Now I feel as though my teeth are not as clean.

Treatment update-is SBRT missing the lesions ?
PET scan 8/21 following PSA 54.5 showed numerous bone lesions. Zytiga, prednisone, Eligard knocked PSA to <.064 until 1/23 PET showed new small lesion in left hip. Radiation 35 Gray 5/5 completed 3/15/23 with PSA drop then bounce from 0.24 to 5.9 triggered another PET on 9/6/23 which showed a new metastasis

Why I stopped metoprolol
Quick summary: I’ve had one ablation, for A-fib, August 2022. All was well A-flutter began in August 2023. I’ve had five cardioversions since then, lasting from three weeks to three days. I am now in A-flutter awaiting an ablation on February 6. Success rate statistically is around 95%. Fingers crossed
