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

Found something under my right underarm
Ugh! So I found something under my arm. I can’t say for certain if it’s a lump/small ball/pimple but it’s something! I discovered it while taking a shower this morning and of course I’m thinking horrible thoughts! I’m so scared. Called my oncologist’s office and hopefully someone will get In contact

Post vasectomy pain syndrome
Nearly 6 years ago I had a vasectomy, from day 1 I've had debilitating pain so bad that even strong pain killers such as pregabaline and cocodamol didn't even touch it. I'm now on morphine patch due to addiction to codeine. I'm now hoping to have the local anaesthetic in target area. It has pretty much

salpingo oophorectomy
Hi, I had stage 1 breast cancer 2 years ago and I opted for double mastectomy in order to reduce any chances of it coming back. My 1st mammo was normal result, 6 months later I still felt the lump and I went for a breast assessment and the Prof in the hospital said it was diffused tissue . Nearly a yr

PAIN IN THE ARM (NOT IN THE KNEE)
Years ago when I was in college, when I was 22, I shattered my right arm learning how to jump the vault in PE. I jumped a perfect jump but the landing was a disaster with 2 complete breaks and about 15 cracks. I had surgery and a plate and 5 wood (!) screws in it. They are still there and caused me no

Received results today from Axumin scan performed last Thursday. They plan to start me on ADT with radiation in 8 weeks. Thoughts welcome.
Any feedback you have is welcome. IMPRESSION: 1. Fluciclovine PET/CT with no definite signs of local or distant prostate cancer recurrence. 2. Focal uptake in the right sacrum, with no underlying bony changes, is indeterminate however likely secondary to degenerative change, attention on follow-up

Just circumcised 7 days ago. Painful erections and stitches stabbing my penis and very annoying.
I was just circumcised one week ago today. I also had a umbilical hernia repair and vasectomy at the same time. So needless to say I was a little sore. However i feel like it's going okay a week in. However i have some concerns. First I have been getting multiple erections throughout the day and night

Adcal and Pred
Would one of our experts please clarify taking Adcal and Pred at the same time please. I currently take all of my Pred, Metamorfin, Lanzaprosal and adcal with my breakfast. What should I be doing? Is the Pred ineffective if taken at the same time as Adcal?

Free-PSA Ratio after Biochemical Recurrence
New study below [1]. Some might recall the use of the free-PSA ratio to cut down on unnecessary biopsies. "The risk of cancer increases if the free to total ratio is less than 25%" [2]. Does the ratio have prognostic value after biochemical recurrence? Apparently it may. "Posttreatment FPSAR>=0.10

Recent hip replacement following trip on drive now prescribed Adcal D3. Read this can lead to strokes and heart attacks over time.
Will a calcium and D3 diet be better than taking Adcal D3. Also on 20 mg omeprazole which can lessen calcium absorption.

More surgery for an ovary that isn’t there
Over a year and a half since my hysterectomy and I’ve just been given a consent form for an oopherctomy with tube removal or cystectomy. Only I’m not supposed to have any ovaries or tubes :( there’s a cyst growing from somewhere and ever though I’ve had all the scans they still can’t tell where. Really

Cystectomy
Hi all, I’m having a cystectomy in a couple of weeks time to remove endometriomas from both ovaries. Was just wondering if anyone knew the recovery time for this operation? I’m still working from home at the moment so assume I could be working again after a couple of days? Thanks, Sarah

My cancer has come back in my chest bone!
Hi, it’s 8 years since I has HER2 grade 3 breast cancer and chemo and a mastectomy on my left side and on a Tuesday my breast consultant told me I have secondary breast cancer in my breast bone. It hasn’t spread anywhere else yet and I am due to have radiotherapy but my bone consultant is on holiday

First phone visit with academic hospital on my biochemical recurrence post robotic radical prostatectomy (University of Wisconsin - Madison)
Met with Dr. David Jarrard from UW Madison today over the phone. He is recommending the Axumin scan and I will most likely proceed with that as my next step. UW Madison has a similar perspective to my local urologist (Dr. Robert Vlach at the Wisconsin Institute of Urology) of having the scan, and then

Reconstruction after mastectomy
I’m looking for some advice, for those of you that have had a mastectomy & reconstruction did you get good results? I may be heading down this path & wanted an idea of pros & cons following surgery?
