Didn't realise they'd removed my ovary
Back in late 2015 and I had a cystectomy, few months later I was getting ready for my wedding and week before I had an ectopic pregnancy which I had to have emergency surgery to remove my tube. This is what I was told at least, I went to a scan a few weeks after and the ultrasound lady said I now have

PMR still here
Hi, think now after 8 years it's going to be a permanent thing. Down to 3mg Pred but sometimes get flare ups. On the amount I take what would be the best increase and taper. Also is it a good thing to get a regular (?) Bone Density Scan to check the Pred is not causing too many problems. ( take Adcal

But by 6 weeks I want to get back to most of my exercises. I know no lifting or sit ups are allowed but is

Why Erleada after Lupron doesn't work and PSA is 24 with no signs of cancer? anywhere after all scans negative.
Please tell me your experiences with Erleada. My dad is resistant to Lupron shots after 5 years. Had radical prostatectomy 11 years ago. PSA is 24...and now on Erlaeda Chemo pills for 2 1/2 months and feeling fatigue he has never felt. All other scans show no cancer anywhere so does anyone have any thoughts

Hi all, I am so lucky to have found this site. You have helped me a great deal since my MBC diagnosis in October. I was first diagnosed with breast cancer in June of 2009. I had a mastectomy on my right breast with clear margins and no lymph node invasion. I had 6 rounds of chemo but no radiation.

Breast cancer and kidney disease
At ago 70 diagnosed with breast cancer, stage 1. Had mastectomy as surgeon said this could avoid further treatment. Now, however, my oncologist wants me on chemo for four months.

Questions..
Hey all just came back to work and university which has been helping me distract myself. Thank you all for the kind messages. Now I have a question. My mom was told she had multifocal invasive breast cancer, and they also told us it was a rare type. Oncologist says it is kind of random how she was checked

Catheter burning.
Four days out from a Robotic radical prostatectomy at MD Anderson. Large tumor on right side. I have a catheter and the tip of my penis burns and has since the surgery. Urine is a clear and I see no signs of infection. Is this normal and to be expected for the next 10 days?

Retrograde Ejaculation
Has anyone else had problems with retrograde ejaculation after a radical prostatectomy? I was prescribed Flomax, but I think that only makes it worse. After orgasm I feel like I have a urinary tract infection and have to pee small amounts of urine every 10 minutes, sometimes for hours! I had my prostatectomy

Reconstruction Expanders
In 10 days scheduled to have a mastectomy, lymph node, and expander put in. Is the expander very painful- have heard mixed things? I am very thin and small-breasted and putting a foreign object w/ a piece of metal under my chest muscle sounds horrible :( Thanks for any feedback

Hi all, Just had my Dexa scan for my coeliac review and it's showing osteopenia. There was no sign of this whatsoever when I was diagnosed 4 years ago. My GP wanted to reduce my levo to 75mg as she believes my almost non existent TSH is a problem. I've refused this and explained yet again that it's

Vasectomy query
Hi. I'm a new member. Oh. Pardon the pun! I had a vasectomy in 2013 that at the time was apparently successful. I've recently tried to get my copy of the letter from my GP. However they haven't got it on file, does anyone know where a copy would be stored? I tried to contact the clinic I had the procedure
