Actinic keratosis & Lung cancer
The oncologist said to concentrate on the lung
cancer
and not do anything about the
skin
cancer
but it’s really unsightly and I know it gets dad down. Has anybody here been in the same position? Surely having the skin patch could be treated without affecting his targeted therapy for lung cancer??

Our Heartfelt thanks!
‼ The lesion featured in this post may look like eczema or benign skin lesion, but it is in fact a melanoma! In rarer cases, all types of melanoma can lack pigmentation – these are known as amelanotic melanoma. Jane’s story below highlights just how important it is to get any abnormalities checked out

Selegiline side effects
Hi All. Due to drug shortages we've been unable to get rasagiline and had to swap to selegiline. Since the swap mum has had lots of unusual bleeding and the GP thinks it may be a side effect of the selegiline. Just wondered if anyone else has had similar problems and if so how did you resolve things?

I have been dealing with a skin condition for almost 3 years. I have seen other posts like mine. One person was even trying to get on a talk show. I too have been dismissed by health providers.

Always the unexpected!
I recently had to have surgery on my face for Basal Cell Carcinomas (a not too drastic skin problem from sun damage). As I have multiple health issues the surgeon decided on a general anaesthetic to do skin grafts. I checked in and when the anaesthetist saw me I asked if he had seen the letter from

These mutations lead the skin cells to multiply rapidly and form malignant tumors. 1 in 4 males and 1 in 5 females in the UK will develop

in their lifetime and it is the most common form of cancer worldwide!

CLL and Skin Cancer
Sure enough,

. He will begin noninvasive low-dosage radiation in a week or so. My thought is that since it began BEFORE treatment, it was probably CLL related, and it blossomed due to his suppressed immune system during his treatment.

Sunbeds are a group 1 carcinogen and are known to cause all types of
skin
cancer
, including the most deadly form - melanoma. Damage is cumulative, irreparable and bad news at any age, but when used, even once at a younger age (under 35) your risk dramatically increases.

Chose Cosmetic surgeon to check mole or wait 4 months for dermatologist?
How can I ascertain, whether the
skin
lesion at the ear lobe is indeed Basal Cell
Cancer
as suspected by dermatologist after visual and manual inspection of the area and referred me urgently because of somewhat unclear colour.

USP or API sources for different NDT thyroid brands
Hi, I was wondering if anybody has information about which NDT brands use which Desiccated Thyroid Extract (USP or API) sources and where these USP/API sources are manufactured? I am particularly interested to know about Armour, NP and Erfa and even the new brand Adthyza.

Gingko Biloba - Supplement Advice
Hello everyone, I'm reaching out for advice on using Ginkgo Biloba to combat brain fog. My previous experience with the Amitamin Ginkgo complex yielded promising results in boosting mental clarity. However, I've noticed it contains iodine (150ug), which I'd rather steer clear of. With that in mind
