Hi All This is just an update on how my 8-year-old boy is doing after his Hemorrhagic stroke. We're slowly making progress with his motor skills, most of the time he crawls about the house but with help from me walking a little. his appetite has improved a lot so very happy on that side of things.

I will try and be short about my story. It is a snapshot of events whilst I was on Levothyroxine for more or less 25 yrs. I never felt well and was never referred to an endocrinologist. I gained weight, my hair thinned. I had problems not only with my voice, but swallowing food. I had brain fog, acute

🙂 Many of us have noticed changes in our Speech…it can be embarrassing and frustrating. If this becomes a real problem we’re generally referred to a Speech Therapist..and there is also the option of joining AtaxiaUKs link to Speech Therapy. Something else I’ve seen recommended..is learning another

Hi everyone. I do hope today is a 'good' day for you. I was wondering if there is anyone on here that, like myself, is receiving targeted therapy with a drug called Tagrisso? Despite my oncologist helping with additional side effects advice and treatment, I'm finding it very hard going and would like

Many of us adjust the timing of what we take for testing. My question concerns combination therapy with T3 taken in two doses. Let's say the day before testing is Monday and assume the blood draw takes place Tuesday at 8 am. Easy enough to take Levo at 8 am Monday. Suppose one usually takes T3 in

Did you know that many of the underlying issues in dizziness are related to the autonomic nervous system? Or that sleep, diet and stress can play a role?

Hello everyone. I just wanted to ask how many people have used ginger tea, ginger travel sickness tablets and acupressure wrist bands for their sickness? I'm having targeted therapy for lung cancer and have found it virtually impossible to go anywhere in the car without horrible nausea and vomiting.

It has only been a month since I'd been diagnosed with CLL. I shouldn't be feeling this crappy this fast? My GP admitted that I've most likely had this cancer for much longer than we known since this year (the testing and eventual hospitalization in late April to early May) was the first time I'd gone

Who is eligible to use proton therapy as a treatment for prostate cancer. In a recent meeting with my oncologist and specialists I was told ONLY prostate cancer patients can do it and not those who have metastasize of the bone or other areas.

Had a setback due to being hospitalized in the ICU for a month and a half. Went to the Oncologist last week and about to start some aggressive treatment as I have a very aggressive prostate cancer. The oncologist on duty at the hospital had an MRI done to show where the metastasized bone cancer is located

This set of links popped up today and I thought it was worth posting about. Many of us DO have dry eyes and it is clear from these articles that it isn't taken seriously enough by either doctors or patients. Treatment is crucial to prevent longterm damage to the cornea and improve quality of life - and

I've recently read about Total Body Enhancement at Planet Fitness. It's a 12 minute routine with red light therapy and a vibration plate. Supposed to help with osteoporosis. Wondering if anyone has used this machine?

At a recent group therapy session, the experienced therapist responded to me as if I was completely unhinged by suggesting that doing therapy had risks. Most therapists, like most people, need to sell their services to support themselves. I have strongly mixed feelings about Eminem and Rhianna, but I

”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

Hey All I hope everyone is well. This is my first time posting and I’m really hopeful someone will be able to advise me. I was diagnosed with lupus in Feb after just over 2 years of struggling with symptoms. Initially I was put on prednisolone and hydroxychloroquine until my bloods came back. My bloods

I’m wondering if there is anyone on the above drug. I have been on it now for 10 days and will stay on it for 12 weeks. I have been pretty unwell since March with re occurring psuedamonas. I am on oxygen therapy, I also have bronciectasis and past T.B. also chicken pox pneumonia, I am on steroid therapy

I appreciate that I have achieved remission with my cancer and I was thinking about the fact that my liver, even though I have cirrhosis, managed all of the chemo drugs I've had pretty successfully. In our patient groups we often see people who die quickly when a second problem appears. As a vote

An update of the long-term follow-up results from the original 300-patient FCR (fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab) study initiated at MD Anderson in 1999, Sustained remissions in CLL after frontline FCR treatment with very-long-term follow-up, reports ~47% of patients with mutated IGHV
