pleural effusions
TKI s can cause
pleural
effusion
. At what point would the CLL Dr attempt to address
pleural
effusion
, or, how bad does it have to get to trigger the Dr to try anything?

Anxiety Sky High
I was on a Trial and all appeared to be stable when I suddenly developed a
pleural
effusion
. As this showed malignant cells I was taken off the Trial. I had 2 drains at the hospital and decided to opt for a semi-permanent drain so the drains could be done at home.

Do NHS cardiologists accept & act on the results of private scans or do they have to be redone on the NHS?
Hi, I need to have either a CT angiogram or cardiac MRI or a myocardial perfusion scan. If I were to have any of these done privately would the NHS accept and act on those scans if they were to show that I need a procedure on my heart or do they make you have the scan all over again on the NHS? (I'm

Hello all I have just received some great news following a second MRI that my heart is now normal with no defects present following viral myocarditis and ongoing sensations of pain during up hill exercise. The results letter does not specify whether it is appropriate for me to now stop taking heart

Not a good report
There are nodules and fluid in my pelvis, as well as a mass and
pleural
effusion
in my lung. The plan is to start chemo next Friday and was told I would never be able to go back to oral treatment. I'm not sure. I knew I felt horrible. I just wasn't expecting this. Andi

EGFR Exon 20 NSCLC
- when he was diagnosed he had a large amount of fluid drained from his lung due to
pleural
effusion
. A biopsy was done on this and found no mutations. We paid for a Guardant 360 liquid biopsy and this came back with an EGFR Exon 20 mutation. My question is, can mutations change over time?
