Itchy burning face, ears, neck
Just over a week ago I started having watery diarrhoea. Have now spoken to my GP and taken a stool sample for analysis but thankfully it is now clearing up. Don't know whether its connected but the skin on my face is burning, very itchy especially when in bed or warm. Its on my face down my neck,

When should I be taking these vitamins and tablets?
Hi I’m currently pregnant and taking more tablets than normal so wondered if anyone had any advice on when I should be taking the following? Levothyroxine - I take it as soon as I wake in the morning then wait an hour at least before eating or drinking tea. Iron - twice daily - I take it around midday

Vit D levels
Afternoon all Had some of my blood tests back and the only abnormal one at the moment is the Vit D, which I had thought might be low, but is this an AdCal job or something else needed? Serum total 25-OH vit D level 39.4 nmol/L 50 - (normal) Many thanks, as always. Peter

Post surgery
Hi. Had my bilateral mastectomy last week. Was told it went well but the surgeon wasn't sharing much, maybe it was the drugs I was on post surgery and I'm not recalling much! Waiting on pathology report to see how many lymph nodes had cancer and decide on chemo protocol. Pain is not too bad but I am

Inflammation dampening??
Good evening everyone, it has taken me nearly 5 years to get to 5mg for the 2nd time. First time I've dropped without any side effects 2 weeks ago. Then 3 nights ago I suddenly found I can get up easily from an armchair during the evening whereas I've always been very stiff (no pain though). I'm trying

Second DEXA Scan Results
In 2018 I had a DEXA scan which showed osteopaenia. NOF was -2, total hip -1.3 and spine -1.9. A few weeks after that scan which, fortunately was done on my left side, I broke my right NOF running a marathon (no fall, classed as a high impact event) and joined this forum. I did leave hospital with

Resetting the Bar of Castration Resistance - Understanding Androgen Dynamics in Therapy Resistance and Treatment Choice in PCa
New paper below [1]. I have watched plenty of videos where Neal Shore, Alicia Morgans & Charles Ryan get together at a conference to discuss the presentations that interested them. Here they are in a paper - can a video be far behind? I think that the paper addresses some issues that have often been

Statin use and risk of PCa biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy.
New study below [1]. "In the largest reported surgical cohort to date, we investigated the effect of statin therapy on BCRF {biochemical recurrence free} and overall survival in patients with CaP who have undergone radical prostatectomy (RP)." "We performed a retrospective analysis of men (n = 3,088)

One year post mastectomy.
Well one year is arriving. This time last time year I saw my consultant with the results of a second biopsy. I had already decided on a mastectomy and had accepted a date at the time of first biopsy confirmation of Grade 2 breast cancer. The second biopsy also was confirmed cancer and was told I needed

Hi all, Not posted before but found this forum so resourceful! After nearly 5 years of not getting anywhere with Dr’s & consultants in 2018 I paid to get a diagnostic laparoscopy privately.

Pain in ribs at night
I'm new to this hub and this is my first post. I have recently been waking during the night with pain under ribs at right side, and often extending around the back. I have to sit straight up for an hour or more until it subsides, as lying down makes it worse. I am guessing maybe Biliary Colic. I

Breast cancer survivor of 32 years
I just wanted to offer hope to others after receiving a diagnosis of breast cancer. I was diagnosed 32 years ago when I was 39. I had a mastectomy and have been lopsided ever since!! But I'm here. I've seen my children grow up and watched then have children of their own. I even delivered my grandson.

Fibromyalgia and PMR?
Hi there, I am 55 and was diagnosed with PMR in January 2019, put on 20mg pred as 15 didn’t do the trick. Added Alendronic acid due to a poor Dexa scan result and also take Adcal D3, K2 and magnesium for my bones. I reduced the pred slowly and steadily but struggled to get lower that 12.5mg without pain
