Feeling Anxious
I have Metastatic Breast Cancer (MBC) I am feeling very anxious and lonely this holiday season. I live alone in Los Angeles. My family is all back East in New York. My fiancé died and 2 BFF's friends died. My "so called" friends are not there for me. I really need more support.

Second opinion on Biopsy
I am scheduled for a second Biopsy and plan to get a second opinion. I read Dr. Epstein with John Hopkins is on indefinite leave. Should I just submit it to John Hopkins, or does anyone have any suggestions for a good place for a second opinion. Previously my biopsy was 7, 3+4, but recent MRI shows

Sufficient Investigation?
My brother is a bit of an ostrich, over his prostate problems. He ignored his poor urinary flow for years, and despite my repeated advice which he ignored, he subsequently had to be admitted to the emergency department due to significant obstruction. His GFR had fallen dangerously to 10. He was in

Not sure what to do next
Hello. I suddenly developed loud tinnitus in my left ear 3 months ago and went to the doctors. It's a very high pitched ringing and varies between loud and very loud and sometimes has different pitches all at once like an orchestra. It's constant, 24/7. I'd had a very slight ringing for several months

Question re: Ablation of Liver Mets
Hello! I've had liver mets - in addition to bone - for a little over a year. When I was scheduled for a biopsy of the liver (a year ago), I asked my doc if they could ablate the tumor at that time and she "found/chose" a surgeon who would do this. So it seemed to be non-routine. I received a bill
