Treatment Decision
I am hoping for some guidance for what to do next for my father. My father is in his early 70s, Gleason 8, PSMA and MRI last year showed no spread, but PSA was rapidly raising. He had an organ transplant years ago, and a small stroke, takes anti seizure medications, and has a walking disability due

Prednisone for treatment of AIG
I've just been started on Prednisone or Prednisolone, immunosuppressant steroids, for treatment of Autoimmune Gastritis/autoimmune PA. This has recently, within the last few years been shown to possibly heal AIG, although not entirely cure. It is also used to prevention immune system rejection of organ

So my sister has just found that she has haemochromatosis...
Further tests
If blood tests show that you have haemochromatosis, you may need to have some further tests to check if the condition has caused any
damage
, particularly damage to your liver.

Kidney function and hypothyroidism?
I always wondered if being undiagnosed and untreated would cause long-term problems and possible
organ
damage
. I even brought this up with my GP on several occasions 😕 Has anyone else got similar kidney problems? How does this affect dosage of Levothyroxine?

Shingrix vaccine for immunosuppressed people aged 50+
I thought I would just post this from the gov.uk website because I have just a bit of struggle convincing our surgery that I was eligible, so maybe other people haven't been invited either. The full list is on chrome-extension://efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj/https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk

Ventoclax&Obinutuzumab or Zanibrutinib&Acalabrutinib
My two questions are first what are the chances of serious side effects from the V&O like
organ
damage
or worse for someone my age and in good health outside of the cll ? Second question is although Dr. has given both options she seems to be leaning towards V&O.

Rejoining the world - An update on my cancer experience as a patient with cirrhosis
I suffered no
organ
damage
from the calcium event. Lots of tests and lots of drugs later, I'm happy to report that my cancer is in remission and I'm going to be in a maintenance program from now on.

Disease remission achieved in SLE with dual-target CAR T-cell therapy
Its goal is to deplete B-cells, lower autoantibody levels, ease lupus symptoms, and prevent
organ
damage
. Conducted in China, the small Phase 1 study (NCT04162353/NCT05474885) included 13 SLE patients, 11 of whom had LN with active disease and had failed multiple lines of therapy.

LDH high
I was worried for a second about any
organ
or tissue
damage
, but he reassured and said that LDH is usually mildly elevated in MPN’s. Also, I did look back at old messages about this topic & felt relieved

Waiting on Rheumatologist....
I'm still waiting on an appointment for the hospital and getting worried as I'm not getting any meds at all to help me and it says the sooner you start medication the better to stop
organ
damage
, etc. How long did any of you wait on an appointment, I thought I'd of been seen in weeks, not months.

IFN-1 levels before treatment may be biomarker of SLE activity: Study
Patients who went on to develop
organ
damage
had higher IFN-1 activity before treatment compared with those who did not.
Organ
damage
also was associated with the use of methylprednisolone pulse therapy or intravenous (into-the-vein) cyclophosphamide (IVCY) pulse therapy.

Bonita219 we hardly knew ya, a visit with the angel of death
For most people age and increasing
organ
damage
brings pain and a greater awareness of that long-hidden reality. I got a letter recently from a nurse with a note that said Bonita has passed. She asked me to send you this and said you would understand. The letter held 3 wrinkled one dollar bills.

Mycophenolate trial?
Hi, I've been invited to take part in a drug trial of mycophenolate in early stage Limited Systemic Scleroderma. It's being overseen by Prof Denton and Royal Free/ UCLH. I understand the drop is commonly used for people receiving organ transplants and in the diffuse cutaneous form of Sac, but the trial
