Bit of a Laugh for Today
Firstly let me tell those who don't already know, that Radiographers are NOT permitted to talk to you about anything they may or may not see on a Scan. They are qualified to take Pictures, nothing else. The Images are sent to the Consultant Radiologist who reports on the Scans to your Consultant. One

Had Gabapentin caused anyone’s RLS to flare or worsen??
I’ve only been on low dose gabapentin (300mg) for 10days. When it first kicks in I feel like my RLS will be under control but quit the opposite. After a few hours my RLS kicks in and has been worse these past 10 days then it was prior to starting Gabapentin. I also been getting these body jerks when

Colonoscopy and Prednisolone
I am booked for a colonoscopy on 21 December at 2:40 pm. I have no other details and await a nurse to ring prior to the procedure. This news has not helped my anxiety, which has, of late increased to a high level for various reasons. I’ve read, and heard from friends, many horror stories about the medication

My Journey - Breast Cancer
So far - I'm Lucky. On March 8th - my husband found a lump on my right breast. He was so sweet - Honey - when was your last Mamo. July 2023 - Why. And then he showed me what he felt. After a sleepless night - right to the Gyno - no worries about apts. I needed to see them. They got me a Mamo

Sore leg muscles
Hi....I had a double mastectomy in Jan 2023 and finished my 4th and final chemo treatment one month ago. Since my 3rd treatment I have experienced extremely sore leg muscles 24/7 with no improvement. Has anyone else had this side effect?

Going in for a radical Cystectomy, stopping Biologic.
Hello lovely people. My first six monthly Cystoscopy after getting the all clear from bladder cancer in January showed that the cancer was back with a vengeance. So on Monday I'll be undergoing a Radical Cystectomy. I'm OK and positive with the outlook of living without a bladder and lots of other bits

Medical Marijuana and Anxiety
Just want to say... I was prescribed medical marijuana by a doctor for my anxiety. I've been smoking the marijuana for three or four days now. I was in a group setting the other day... a sort of mental health support group. There were twelve people in the group including myself. This sort of situation

What’s the pros and cons of Casodex and Lupron as the only treatment for Gleason 4+5 (9).
I was diagnosed with PC, March 2022. Gleason 4+5 (9). Urologist wanted to do a radical prostatectomy. I chose to change my diet, exercise and lifestyle to a plant-based detox from chemicals in my food and in my house. My PSA went from 13.7 to 100 in one year. It metastasized to my pelvic area and seminal

PSMA Pylarify Test
Finally getting a PSMA Pylarify test after a PSA rise from 0.64 to 0.90 in 11 weeks. Should be interesting. No symptoms from the cancer so far. At the current PSA level it would appear there is an almost 90% chance of locating cancer somewhere. Also of some great interest to the doctor(s) is my status
