Bitterness & Rubbery
If I take it 3 nights in a row I’ll feel kinda rubbery if that makes sense. I use medical marijuana nightly and only use zoplicone if I awaken and can’t fall back to sleep. Any “hacks” out there for the bitter taste?? G

Any suggestions about choosing a surgeon?
My 2nd post and thank you all for providing the detailed info in the previous one. My dad has decided to opt for radical prostatectomy. Do you have any specific surgeon in the UK that you would recommend? I am not quite certain about the criteria for choosing the best surgeon. Does the positive margin

Advice please?
Hi, I was told I had osteoporosis in May 2018. My scores were: Femur neck: T score -1.1, Z score -0.1 Spine: T score -2.5 Z score -1.4 Looking at the charts, my interpretation is that my hip is just in the osteopenia range and my spine just in the osteoporosis range. If it hadn't been that I started

How to Emotionally Prepare for Surgery
A few years ago, a friend preparing for her double mastectomy asked me, “𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗲𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗴𝗲𝗿𝘆?” This is a great question. Here are some things that helped me: 1. Take photos. You could schedule a photo shoot or have someone close to you take

Penile Biothesiometry?
Has anyone been tested with this device? Seems like the perfect way to monitor, measure, and track the progress of "nerve healing" following a radical prostatectomy. Penile biothesiometry: This test involves the use of electromagnetic vibration to determine sensitivity and nerve function. A decreased

Surgery with an auto immune disorder
Good morning all Some issues have come to light in my family recently which mean I may be eligible for a BRCA ( it’s the gene mutation which increases the risk of breast cancer amongst others) test. It seems to me that the worst possible outcome would be to agree to the test, be tested positive but then

RECENT EPISODE on 24 January 2020
Though I had experience of knocking sensation before but last Friday's episode was really dreadful after my dinner. On sitting I felt a pressure on mid-chest area, it was something like I have been locked from inside and can get relief if I have some belching. Noted the BP which was high 180/70 HR 78

Hi this is my first time posting.. I had a mastectomy last February.. two rounds of chemo before and 30 rounds of radiation after. My tumor was large and had attached to my arm muscle..My chest is dented and feels like a drum head stretched to tight.. I’m wondering if this feeling will ever go away..

Does this study which predicts BCR for all post RP guys with a uPSA of 0.03 or higher apply to intermediate and low-risk RP guys also?
does this apply to low and intermediate-risk post-RP guys? https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25463990 "PURPOSE: Integrating ultrasensitive prostate specific antigen with surveillance in patients at high risk after radical prostatectomy potentially optimizes treatment by correctly identifying recurrence

Treating Prostate Cancer with Cannabis? Part 3
What's the Best Method for Treating Prostate Cancer with Cannabis? Because there are no clinical trials, and no regulation on cannabis for cancer, nobody can say for sure what method works best for treating prostate cancer. Proper cannabis dosing for any medical condition is something best left to discuss

Mastectomy or Not?
I have been troubled with just overthinking my Onc plan for my path going forward. I trust that she is making decisions with my best interest in mine, I google a lot and sometimes that can be a nightmare. To explain, I was slated to have my mastectomy on my left breast where the tumor is located. Just

Smaller pancreas than normal
Hi, my thoracic surgeon advised me yesterday that my pancreas is smaller than normal. I had total gastrectomy 6 months ago and I have been having some pain after eating. Does anyone know if I am not producing enough enzymes, causing issues to gain weight?

Axumin PET scan denied by Blue Shield
My husband, John, is 49 years old. He has prostate cancer that has metastasized to his bones. He had a radical prostatectomy two years ago. We are currently being seen at Stanford Medical Center. Our insurance, Blue Shield, has denied Stanford's request for an Axumin Pet Scan, despite several calls
