Magnesium and MBC
Hi ladies, just a quick question. I take Ibrance and Letrazole together with a monthly Denosumab injection and Adcal +D3. I’ve been having bad cramp in my legs and hands. Mostly wakes me during the night. My Cancer Nurse advised Magnesium. We have a really healthy diet, fresh everything but I feel that

Auximen scan shows significant new cancerous activity and last post about my brother
Unfortunately, this is the last post about my brother. He passed away on October 6. My brother showed great fortitude against very long odds, and his courage and strength of spirit during this brutal battle was inspirational. I am heartbroken to lose him, but I know the cliché that he is finally at peace

Osteoporosis treatment
I have had RA for 38 years and taken steroids when necessary throughout this time. Had 3-yearly Dexascans, the last one showing I had Osteopenia. My stomach will not tolerate Alendronic acid or similar. I take Adcal but realise with 3/4” height loss I need to be on something that will increase bone

Received my Eligard Injection on Tuesday - PSA a tick lower before injection - Low LDH score ?
Received my injection on Tuesday. Had labs done prior to injection. PSA dropped a tick from ".38" on 8/8/2020 to ".37" on 10/6/2020. My LDH was at 127. Literature says it is unusual to have a low LDH score. Anyone have any information on a low LDH score ? Thanks! Background Data: Diagnosed with

Alternatives to Adcal
Hi I responded badly to Adcal and my GP said there would be enough calcium in my diet. I take vitD and K2 plus multi vitamin daily and I’m on 8mgs Pred. However, I’ve been on a bio-sulphate for over three years and want to stop. Any suggestions as to another kind of calcium I could take? Thanks!

Oral History of Vasectomy - Interviewee Request
Hello, I hope it's ok for me to post here, and I hope you're all doing well given the current circumstances. I am a PhD researcher at the University of Strathclyde, and I research the history of vasectomy in Britain, looking at things like why it became more popular, how attitudes towards it changed

Adcal-D3
Has anyone had this prescribed? I went to collect my monthly prescription and this was added to it. I wasn’t expecting it and of course googled it. But just wondered if anyone else has had it and if they experienced side effects. Thankyou

Hi everyone Bella here. I’ve been a bit quiet for a while just ticking along, having had 5 denosumab injections to date, next one due next month actually. Meanwhile, Monday 19th I’m going to have my second DEXA scan done privately and see if these injections have made any difference. I’ve done this

Medical marijuana
Wondering if anyone has used medical marijuana for anxiety? Not self medicating, but actually going to a Dr. and dispensary for a specific type/dose. I see it’s recommended to help but I always used to feel paranoid when I smoked in my 20s.

A warning to older men on dialysis and those who have had transplants
I am 68 years old and had a transplant in 2016. Previous to this I was on peritoneal dialysis for a couple of years. Everything went well with the transplant but I was having trouble with the frequent need to pee. Initially it was thought that my bladder just needed time to get used to a working kidney
