Bubbles or foam in urine.
Hi, I hope everyone is doing well. I had my kidney transplant about 5 months ago. My urine has always foam or bubbles (I'm not sure) in there. There is also no protein in my urine. My doctor's told me the only way there will be foam in my urine is when there is protein in it. They too find it unusually

I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with health insurance while travelling to America and other places where insurance is extremely expensive and sometimes extortionately so. I received a list of recommended providers from the administrators on here but I seemed to

After 2nd Vaccine Antibodies
As a kidney transplant In the USA, whose responsibility is it to test me to find out if my body has made antibodies after the second covid vaccine? Also, how long do I have to wait to be tested for antibodies?

A fascinating podcast on the history and current state of stem cell regeneration.
Did you know humans make around 2 1/2 million red blood cells a second? Did you know the only the stem cell transplant that can currently be done is a bone marrow one? Did you know, at a guess, there have been something like 2 million bone marrow transplants to date. I came across this episode in the

Post Lobectomy
Hi all, I had a right lower open surgery lobectomy last July and fortunately advised they removed the mass completely and no further treatment required. It was found to be non-small-cell lung cancer – squamous cell carcinoma. I have since had several scans due to chest infections and a cough which does

Lung cancer cells have differential signaling responses to KRAS inhibitor treatment.
Genetic alterations of the KRAS gene are some of the most common mutations in lung cancer patients, but unfortunately these patients have few effective treatment options. Drugs that target the G12C mutation in KRAS have shown some activity in lung cancer; however, alternative signaling pathways are often

Ongoing liver assessment stress
Over the last few weeks my husband has been assessed on an outpatient basis to see whether he's suitable for a liver transplant. His last test was this week on Wednesday when he had to do a treadmill test to see how fit his heart is. Just by chance we were looking at his medical record on line and

TREATMENT FOR PSEUDOMONAS.
Hi going on Meropenem again. This is the third time since September. I've had two X rays still showing a shadow on my left lung waiting for a Ct Scan. At the moment I feel like it's never ending. 😕😡 Holly

Do you want to have a friendly chat to a researcher about your experiences?
[We're still recruiting to this study in case there are any new members or people who still wanted to take part] Were you diagnosed with lung cancer within the last 12 months? Have your say about your experiences in the PEARL study - a research programme led by UCL and funded by Cancer Research UK.

Auto Stem Cell transplant?
Hi, Curious to know if anyone out there has had R-chop, then relapsed and the next line of treatment recommended was SCT? I've been battling Marginal Zone lymphoma (2016), transformed to DLBCL (2018) and now it's back again. The auto process sounds very scary (dangerous), and with a 30-50% success rate
