Anyone survive pleural effusion?
My brother has just had one thing after another these last two months. He has been getting weaker and he’s short of breath and has developed a cough. His voice is very hoarse. His wife looked back at his last scan and it revealed a large plural effusion of the right lung and a moderate one in the left

MRI Perfusion test
Hi All, hope everyone is OK. I recently found out one of my bypass grafts didn't take (skeletonised RIMA to OM) and I have to undergo a cardiac MRI with perfusion test. I'm unfamiliar with this test, can anyone who has had it tell me what it entails and what it tells you? Also, is it OK to have an

Myocardial Perfusion test
Aside from having stress echocardiagram and being on a heart monitor whilst in hospital and due to have a second ablation (first 2020) I have now been referred for a myocardial perfusion test which I believe involves being injected with a radio active substance to enable the medics to view my arteries

Mindfulness
I have not written for here some time but I have had PMR for about 12 years. When I retired 10 years ago I was under a lot of stress and attended a mindfulness based stress reduction course for 8 weeks. This changed my life! (for the better!). More recently I have been looking at Mindfulness again

Stress Test/myocardial perfusion scan Results
Good afternoon, I had my tests carried out in Feb and despite being told I would receive the results in 2 weeks I have only just been sent them. The consultant has not written to me with his conclusions yet and I am not being seen until July. My GP is happy to have a look at it but my appointment is

New diagnosis
A scan in November has shown a cancer in her scar tissue which has spread to the
pleural
cavity and she has a
pleural
effusion
. We have been told that it is not treatable. We can't understand how it has been missed after regular scans and are shell shocked by the diagnosis.

Meds after spinal fusion
My fusion was 11 weeks ago and I still need an occasional dose of my prescription medication. I have heard that otc meds such as aleve and ibuprofen can interfere with bone grafting, so I have been avoiding them. Surgeon said the otc's were okay to take at this point but I would rather wait until I

Pleura effusion
Morning all, I’ve got a
pleural
effusion
on my right lung. It was partially drained on Thursday via pleura tap and I’ll go again Monday to drain more. In a week or so I’m due to start weekly taxol with bevacizumab every 2 weeks. Has anyone had a similar issue?
