Waxing or hair removal when on Warfarin
Hi. I just had a mechanical valve replacement on the 16th of August 2023. I would like to get waxed. Is it possible to? I have never bled before warfarin. Are there other hair removal methods that are safer or can I stick to waxing?

GP visit!
So I went to see my GP yesterday and discussed my symptoms, and asked about B12 injections. Got the same old story - test within range, symptoms aren’t bad enough, try oral B12 for three months, despite my explaining that I have low stomach acid and problems with malabsorption, which she again dismissed

Are endocrinologists of any help after ADT?
After ADT, my MO told me that handling things like Prolia management won't be in her bailiwick. I didn't ask about post-ADT SE's and recovery from same. Hot flashes, low T, BMD loss, and last not least sarcopenia. What is the community's experience with how post-treatment SE's are best handled? Are

Runny eyes
I have recently been diagnosed with suspected glaucoma and prescribed one eye drop a day. Before this I had experienced runny eyes and had been referred to an optician by my GP. She found that I had dry eye. Often now a short while after my eye drop the eye runs briefly. I am worried that the eye drop

Quantiferon TB Golf test before starting Actemra
Hi . this is Groda again. My Rheum wants me to start on Actemra for my GCA. He prescribed a Quantiferon TB Golf test (IGRA) before starting Actemra. Would like to know if anyone else had to have this test before starting Actemra. Also, for those that were on Actemra, how long where you on it? Infusion

Lab Tests Indicate High Lipase
Has anyone taking prednisone and Actemra had a high lipase on their routine lab tests. I’m on 4 mg prednisone and bi-weekly injections of Actemra for GCA. I get lab tests every month, and the past several months Lipase is high (usually around 60-70). I’ve done a CT scan with the dye, and was told

update
unfortunately the liver mets have returned to Martins liver. It is 6 months since chemo finished. There are multiple small mets. Martin is still feeling well. No fatigue, loss of appetite or pain. His MO said that this is very bad and gave a prognosis of 12 months. He is starting Martin on carboplatin

Cirrhosis & Diverticular disease
I was recently diagnosed with Diverticular disease and Cirrhosis of the liver, after having a Scan and colonoscopy. I was referred to the Gastroenterlogy department at the hospital for triaging and consultation with regard to the cirrhosis, but it looks as if both of those will take months to happen.

low serum iron. Normal ferritin
been getting very tired lately. ET (MPL) on pegysus 45ug every 2 weeks. Mentioned fatigue to haematologist and he suggested reducing peg further to 3 weekly. Got the above results after we got home. Also raised CRP but I do have a cold . raised neutrophils and wbc. Haem thought this was good as mounting
