Lymphatic fluid/Seroma
Good morning all, Was just wondering if anyone can put my mind at rest? I had a mastectomy and full axillary lymph node clearance last week, with no drains. Although I appreciate that it is early days, I have noticed a whoosing sound (like a hot water bottle) of what I presume is lymphatic fluid/seroma

Gallbladder Adenomyomitosis after Breast Cancer... HER2 positive (+++)...Not received Herceptin(Trastuzumab)

Surgery one done
My husband had his gastrectomy last Thursday and came home yesterday, I’m so proud of him for how well he’s doing. My mastectomy is scheduled for next Thursday and I’m getting nervous about the surgery and leaving the family with my husband still recuperating, but can’t wait for us both to be cancer

Breast cancer history
I was first diagnosed with stage zero breast cancer in 2000 when I was 45. I had a lumpectomy and radiation. 17 years later in 2017 it came back. (Both times in right breast) I had a double mastectomy and 8 cancerous lymph nodes removed. Stage 3. I had chemo and radiation. In August 2018, I

New member requiring advice
I have been recently diagnosed with PMR and have been on 15mg Prednisolone for 5 weeks together with Omeprazole, Adcal and Alendronic Acid. Any advice on do's and don'ts would be really helpful, in particular about diet as I don't want to gain weight. Incidentally I find that taking the Prednisolone

Indigestion
Hi I’m two and a half years into PMR and now tapered to 9.5 mg Pred. Quite suddenly I am getting attacks of quite fierce indigestion which seem to come after taking AdCal. Is it that or my body getting as fed up with Pred as I am (😀)? Has anyone else found this an issue?

Total Gastrectomy check up.
Yesterday I attended an appointment at the hospital some four hours journey from home with the surgeon that performed a Total Gastrectomy on me a little over nine years ago. The appointment was at his request and I had not seen him over the pat fours years. Now he wishes to see me on a yearly basis.

Health update
Hello I have not posted for sometime but not because I have forgotten my fellow PMR sufferers. Since I stopped my steroid treatment at the beginning of November 2018, family issues, including a bereavement have kept me very busy.

Sural Nerve Graft post RP to fix Erectile Dysfunction
Hi guys, I’ve been researching nerve grafting for Erectile dysfunction post radical prostatectomy. I just miss the good old days of spontaneity and the Tri-mix injections are...well...just not spontaneous. Do any of you have experience with this procedure? Have any of you overcome ED after several

How do you cope with family indifference?
Hi my MPN family. To understand my question you will first have to understand my story. I have never been close to my siblings because of the way they treated our parents and how my parents care was left to me with no help from the others. I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2009 and had a double

Thoughts on IVF success?
Just read an old post on here which suggests ladies who have first time success usually don't have problems themselves and is much more likely to lie with the guys. Started to get me worried. My OH has 2 children from his marriage then had a vasectomy. He has since had it reversed which has been successful

What do you think?
Hi everyone, I had a Bone scan yesterday and commented that my Dr put me on Alendronic tablets back in August and although I questioned her at the time she reassured me I needed them. The hospital were very surprised as they suggested Dr should have waited for Bone scan results as Adcal would be sufficient

Confused about where or even if to start on an IVF journey
So I started thinking about Children 6 years ago when I was 37. We decided after lots of discussion to adopt. We went down that route but my partners daughter, gave us a terrible reference. She has never met me (her choice) and is mentally ill but apparently that still means we were rejected. Even though

Treatment
I’m curious how many with lobular breast cancer here are on Ibrance/Letrozole or other combinations and have not had any other therapy; i.e., mastectomy, chemotherapy, radiation.
