Thoracic CT Scan - With contrast.
Not that remarkable having a CT Scan - But today I was not feeling the best before I wnt. It was a Thoracic CT with contrast. I have had many of these and know they can make you feel warm, and even an urge to urinate although it never happens. I was placed on the CT Scanner and was given Iodine as

suspected epidural tumour
Hi all! Hope you are all doing well. My dad just got his scans back, and to go along with his rising PSA (over 260 now), the said they suspect he has an epidural tumour. Our MO typically glazes past his scan results as she doesn’t seem them significant, I want to make sure I am right to be worried here

Tainted Blood Sample - Additional Info
Did not anticipate another blood sample error yesterday using hematology clinic lab with the personal touch specifically to avoid errors. Finding the positive, it is good to know that it is not only potassium that can be skewed greatly from a bad/coagulated sample but also protein and liver AST (aspartate

Laxido - diarrhoea
hi there, I was suffering with constipation so my doctor prescribed Laxido. The label from the pharmacy said take one twice a day generally but if constipated you can take 6 in 1 hour. I took 5 in 1 hour last Saturday. Since then, I have loose stools/diarrhoea. I have bloating and cramps also. I thought

What should I expect at the end?
My dad 77 year old had been battling castration resistant prostate cancer for many years. He was in remission for awhile (unsure exactly how long as he was secretive about the whole thing) however it made a huge comeback in January of 2022 and he has been through a short stint of chemo as well as

Post triple therapy options?
This past summer, I wrote because my husband's PSA numbers started doubling very quickly. (see quick recap below) By the time we got the PSMA PET scan a few weeks later, there were too many tumors in the bones to count. We jumped into triple therapy: Eligard, Nubeqa, and chemo. David's last chemo (6

I have had diarrhea most of my life and have used Imodium for the most part. Have been working with GI specialist but no help so far. Taking Colestipol which at least usually keeps me from having an accident but goes not help the symptoms of needing to go. They seem to want to find right pills to help

ICU recovery nightmare
Was in ICU for 6 days following a seizure due to low sodium (92) due they think to stomach virus though still having investigations for Addisons. 2 ambulances, helicopter , CPR , a stroke originally suspected. No ICU diary kept by hospital , no discharge help, no rehab , no advice on how I would feel

Hello All ! 😊 About to embark on the path of trialing B12 by injection as there seems plenty to confirm that those who do not benefit from supplementation, do ( - often enough!) see improvements via 💉s! Don't yet know if this will be available via the NHS, even citing credible info, of which there

PMR & Stage II Polycystic Kidneys
PCP determined PMR based on my “tinman stiffness” and bloodwork showing crazy inflammation levels in late January, and started me on 20 mg of prednisone. An ultrasound and xray turned up polycystic kidneys with a too-large to pass stones. I’ve tapered to 15 mg of prednisone at this point, and am wondering

Letting people down because of IBS
I'd made arrangements to go on a 250 mile train ride to help family members with a really difficult family problem. I knew it was a risk booking tickets and making commitments, but I gambled on it. The stress has been awful the past 3 weeks to a month now. I kept "positive-talking" myself and saying
