Zytiga side effects
Zytiga works by blocking mineralocorticoids, glucocorticoids, and Androgens and Estrogens. Prednisone makes up for the glucocorticoids but why is there no therapy given for the mineralocortoids which upsets the sodium and potassium balance. This leads to a condition called hypoaldosteronism which leads

(LONG POST) Update to 35 year old male with RUQ pain and extreme anxiety.
Hello again, I thought I'd give everyone an update as you were very supportive/responsive in my initial post. So yesterday the RUQ pain continued and along with the discomfort I was experiencing confusion, dizziness and swelling of the face. Do to my new-found knowledge of all the things it could be

Thoughts on my latest blood results
Just wondering if anyone would be so kind as to cast an eye over my latest results... a few of my b12 symptoms are coming back despite every other day injections. Very pale skin, tiredness, headaches, tingling arms etc. So I asked my doctor to do a full blood test and he reluctantly agreed, but has marked

Test results what do they mean? Have gone online so have previous results when I was complaining of fatigue, confusion over last 5 years...
Felt fairly rubbish over the last 2 months- feeling sleepy if sat back unless using the PC, hence watch TV on a night and o stuff on PC otherwise I would drop off, or reach for something to eat to keep me awake! Hence the expanded waistline.... Appreciate your comments - is it the thyroid, B12, or

Obtained my results as advised by the community, after being advised by GP to go for repeat test in 4-6 weeks as borderline thyroid issue...
Hi Just done the repeat blood test for thyroid and as I asked why my B12 was so high they are retesting B12 in case of a mistake in the lab. (I was expecting a low B12, as my sister has B12 injections, she is hypothyroid, Hashimotos and has MS. Mum and auntie also the hypothyroid condition. I don't

Hai, I'm Catherine (user names were gone so I just typed whatever worked). I've been "skulking" around here since I gave myself a concussion in November.

IBS-D/C and GORD/GERD history along with meds concerns
Today I'm here to give an update to my IBS issues. I suffered with IBS-D for years, beginning around 2002. Most of the time it occurred with just occasional episodes of constipation and interspersed with some 'normal movements'. I couldn't ever figure it's pattern if anything in particular was at issue

Fluctuations in Creatinine and Urea

Metastasis-Free Survival in Prostate Cancer: Faster Drug Approvals, Better Drugs?
New paper below. Does improved metastasis-free survival (MFS) translate into longer overall survival (OS)? What if resistance to a drug that delays metastasis, causes a reduction in post-MFS survival? The result might be a wash or even a shortening of OS. -Patrick http://ascopubs.org/doi/full/10.1200

Left sided pain and blockage feeling
TL;DR – Have painful left sided tummy cramps, feeling of stool blockage at the same site. Very soft stools, all tests and scopes return normal. Tried IBS supplements, diet change, painkillers, fibre supplements. This is something which has been bugging me for the better part of a couple of months now

New Nephrologist!
If any of you remember, the first nephrologist I saw scared me to death. When I asked if diet would slow my progression of ckd and he coldly said nothing would help because my kidneys were shrinking, it was irreversible and progressive. I saw a younger nephrologist yesterday and even though he said
