Occasional sore tongue
It seems my tongue and sometimes the roof of my mouth feel like I burnt myself with a hot beverage when that is not the case. Sometimes brushing the area with my tooth brush seems to help. I’ve tried all sorts of toothpaste formulations. In can vary during the day and from day to day. I avoid any toothpastes

Can I ask is there still a hold on listing in England, for Lung Transplants? I have been informed lately that the 'super urgent, and urgent' are now lifted and its business as usual, as we all had a window from Covid, bit perplexed as I know of a few patients who fit normal criteria, not yet listed

Ntpobnp blood test
Hi all. I had a bone marrow transplant 2 years ago. It put stress on my heart. Last week i had a echocardiogram which has come back good!!! Though my bnp level is 600... i am 38. So too high. My consultant is not worried though. Does this sound right?? Does a high bnp always mean heart failure? Back

RethiNKing which immune cells are the best weapon against lung cancer.
Immune cells called ‘natural killer’ (NK) cells could be a powerful weapon for fighting lung cancer, according to Melbourne researchers. Studying preclinical and patient samples of small cell lung cancer (SCLC), the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute team revealed that NK cells – but not T cells – are essential

Hi, I'm 20 years old. I have sickle cell disorder. But what bothers me most is that my eyes is always yellow, and it makes me feel shy.
I try to always drink water but most times drinking water makes me feel nauseated. I don't know why?

Lung cancer trial of RET inhibitor selpercatinib achieves durable responses in majority of patients with RET gene fusions.
For patients with non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC) marked by RET gene fusions, the targeted therapy selpercatinib was well tolerated and achieved durable objective responses, or tumor shrinkage, in the majority of participants in the Phase I/II LIBRETTO-001 trial, according to researchers from The

Brain Inflammation
Last week I completed the MIN-102 trial which concluded with an MRI. The next day I received a call from the neurologist saying there are changes from the last MRI (9/19) and what is brain inflammation. She felt it urgent enough to prompt a video visit with me and my neurologist. I got the radiologist
