Biopsy wait times
Hi all, my dad was diagnosed with lung cancer last week and understandably we are all devastated. He has not been well since Oct. X-ray in Dec and CT scan on 3rd Jan. He now has to go for a biopsy and the GP informed him the appointment could take up to 4 weeks. He called the appointment line today and

Verzenio Monotherapy
I'm wondering if anyone on here is on Verzenio monotherapy. That is just Verzenio,not in combo with anything. I take 200mg twice daily. I began this just over a month ago and wondering if anyone has been on this protocol and seen it help. To give a background. I was diagnosed first 27 years ago. Stage

Dexamethasone
My cousin has a brain tumour and is receiving radiotherapy. In addition, she has been prescribed 2mg daily dexamethasone steroids. I'm wondering what is the difference between this drug and prednisolone?

update on my eyelid problem
Hello, all. I don’t know how many of you saw my previous post a few weeks ago when an ophthalmologist suspected basal cell carcinoma in my eyelid. I had a biopsy and yes he was correct and now I have to have eye surgery to have it removed. I know this is not the site for that, but I thought I would

Back in permanent AF and warfarin dose decrease
Hi All, I used to have paroxysmal AF which was ablated by Prof Schilling back in 2010. I had been in NSR. However I was diagnosed with prostate cancer back in the summer. I had huge delays and postponements before I had a biopsy. I eventually got the results 5 weeks later (rather than the two weeks promised

Cold in September
Hi all didn't take long for me to pick up a cold I work with kids. Yesterday I woke up with a cold and my asthma flaring up. Struggled through work with salamol. Took my rescue steriods last evening and this morning. No work today and resting at home. Salamol at regular intervals. Feel wiped out, no

Weaker left ventricle function (LVEF)
Hello all. I had a routine ECG for something else and they picked up I have a weaker left ventricle function(LV EF). This is 45-50% and apparently 'normal' is 50-75%. I am a very fit 50 year old woman, I have no symptoms - feel fit as a fiddle!. I have no background history of that might be causing this

Dear BLT people, I hope you are all doing reasonably well. After my story 1.5 year ago about my misdiagnosed liver cirrhosis its kind of weird to say that I found out that my dad was diagnosed with liver cancer today. (he was never a drinker or fat or what so ever, he is quite old though, he is

Itchy Anus
so I’ve had an itchy anus for about a month now. It’s not haemarroids and it’s not thread worms. It’s an itch on the skin around it I’ve used Clotrimazole and that hasn’t helped. What is happening??

Headcold and Cough
Good evening Everyone. Hope you all had a good Christmas. I know its difficult to give individual suggestions. But I came out to Spain for Christmas and New year and now have a cough and headcold. Which is producing a lot of mucus from my blocked nose. I am using Sterimar nasal spray. But not helping
