COC Protocol
Has anyone tried the COC Protocol for breast cancer? They prescribe repurposed combinations of existing licensed medications that are used to treat conditions other than cancer. I gather they are off -patent drugs that aren't worth the drug companies time because they are unable to profit from them.

Metformin
Hi, I’ve been taking metformin for about 2 months but my periods have now stopped which I’m worried about. I used to have them monthly before taking metformin. Has anyone else had a similar experience? Thanks x

Hi Everyone I've been a member here for a number of years but it's been a while since I last logged in. I want to scream in frustration, really! I was 22 when I got PA, and self-injected (monthly) for almost all that time, with the support of my Practice Nurse.) Then NICE changed it to 3 monthly! I tried

Not the news I wanted
Well - that’s a bit of a bummer - following my recent set of blood tests, I received a phone call from the surgery; in a rather too enthusiastic voice (I thought) I was told ‘you are officially diabetic......‘ ‘Your previous result was 48 and your last one was 52 - I’m putting that down as steroid-induced

Repurposing drugs, do they work on NSCLG?
Have been told about taking Atorvastatin, Metformin, doxycycline and mebendazole either during or after chemo to lessen the chance of it recurring. Anyone got any thoughts on this? does it work for lung cancer? Thanks Ian

RLS only when lying down
I have been having horrible bouts of RLS within 10 minutes of falling asleep. I don't have them all day and then as soon as I go to bed I am jolted awake by what feels like little shocks in my legs. This can go on until 4am when I usually fall into a deep sleep. I am type 2 diabetic and on metformin

Strange Development
Good morning all, it's a lovely day on Englands south coast and the sun is shining. Getting to my question, I need advice please. Newly diagnosed in early May with PMR. Put on Pred 15mg all symptoms and pain disappeared the following day. Felt great and after 3 weeks tapered to 12.5mg. No issues. Further

Do I need to increase dose?
Hi, hope everyone is well. The photo shows my latest results and below is a bit of a history. Latest results don’t look as great and have definitely taken a dive in how I’m feeling. Some other symptoms are creeping back in. Barely doing any exercise either. Just wondering if I need to increase the dose
