I would appreciate your guidance on the importance of which kind of shingles vaccine to have, i.e. live or not? I am on medication for GCA, 5.5mg Prednisolone, plus Levothyroxine, Bisoprolol, Amlodipine, Rosuvastatin, Ursodeoxycholic Acid, Famotidine, Losartan. With many thanks.

Cabazitaxel and estrogen patch
My brother has CRPC and is receiving Cabazitaxel+Relugolix. Denosumab and Zoledronic acid don't work for him. I suggested an Estrogen patch to both maintain bone density and ameliorate hot flashes. His oncologist said that an Estrogen patch would interfere with the Cabazitaxel. I can't find any literature

zoledronic acid infusion
hi everyone. I’ve been on here before but now I am really stressing out. Just over a year ago I incurred 4 vertebrae fractures, incredibly painful, but I gradually recovered. Sadly I lost 2” in height. Subsequently I was sent for an MRI and, after, I received a letter from the hospital strongly

Alendronic Acid taken with bottled mineral water by mistake. Should I be worried? Should I take it again tomorrow with tap water? Any advice
I realised too late and am now concerned about it. I’m currently on holiday and always drink bottled water while away but I remembered that the instructions say it must be tap water. Any advice would be helpful. Thanks

Exhausted.
I am 30 years old. I started menstruating at the age of 10. When I was around 14, I would have these random "attacks" of abdominal pain that left me crippled. There have been occasions my mum had to lift me out of the bath, because I felt like my insides had totally twisted. Now, I shower. But there

Do people feel their doctors told them what they need to know?
I was diagnosed just after the start of the pandemic. It was lockdown = pandemonium. All the same it sticks in my mind that all I was told about Pred was when to take it and to reduce.. Really, they seemed most concerned about alendronic acid and how I must sit upright. Do people risk death if they

Caprylic Acid promotes the progression of prostate cancer.
New study below [1]. Long-term vilification of saturated fats have led us to be afraid of longer-chain fats, such as (the innocent) stearic acid (C16:0). The short & medium chain fats don't get much press. "Caprylic acid {C8:0} (from Latin capra 'goat') ... is a saturated, medium-chain fatty acid"

Hi all, I'm a GCA patient, having started at 60 MG in AUG 2022. I'm down to 12.5 MG today. I have felt lousy in so many respects including fatigue, vision issues, and GI problems since day 1. When the rheumy put me on Alendronic Acid a month of so ago, that was the "last straw." It made me feel

Any suggestions as to how to stop spotting?
hey We’ve been TTC since November. No luck yet. I’ve got stage 4 endometriosis and I’m constantly spotting each month. Sometimes it’s only 2 or 3 days before period, sometimes it’s 7 days before period. One day it’ll be brown and the next bright red. Every month I know I’m not pregnant because of

Forsteo ending, Zoledronic acid is next.
Dear friends, Once again I’m going to ask some questions on behalf of my dear wife. If you can share your experiences or give advice, we would be most grateful. Our first question is, if you have completed a course of Teriparatide injections, how long did you wait before your next course of treatment
