Hello warriors! Got my lab test done. and the results were decent. Today my question is different. So my question is this: Are you guys allowed to play outdoor games???? If yes which are the games you play? I love to play cricket (as every Indian love playing cricket) but I am not sure I can play that

Lung nodule advice please?
I've been told over the phone today (by my gp because I wanted to know my results)that one of my three lung nodules has grown from 6mm to 7mm since my first scan three months ago. I'm really worried, I phoned the respiratory secretaries to ask what happens next, to be abruptly told that the consultant

Severe itching after kidney transplant
I had my transplant last month and I had two blood transfusions. One bag the first time then two bags the second time. I’m not sure if it’s the medications but I have had full body itching since I left the hospital. My doctors tried benedryl, Zyrtec, hydroxyzine pamoat and I have put anything from cortisone
