One was dialysis four times a week was too much. Next, I did not need more than 2 hours a day. AND.....I went home Thursday of week

Sick day rules after having IV cortisol?
On holiday in Majorca with family and had been fine although probably not pacing so much with increased activity compared to home in the UK. During the night developed severe d & v and did not realise it was an adrenal crisis, just thought I had a bug. Luckily I had told husband and daughter about

How prostate cancer transforms into aggressive NEPC following treatment with anti-androgen therapy.
This could be a game changer as it could stop PCa from progressing. Science is going to save us. The development of effective anti-androgen therapies for prostate cancer is a major scientific advance. However, some men who receive these targeted treatments are more likely to develop a deadly treatment-resistant

UTIs and Vaginal Atrophy
Good morning. I normally post on the PMR forum but today I'm seeking advice about a UTI which has not cleared up despite two courses of antibiotics. The GP says that I have some vaginal atrophy and wants me to take vaginal estriol. I was prescribed 3 days of Nitrofurantoin without a urine test. After

Feeling really low at the minute. Sorry this is a long one but just want to write it all down.
After Nstemi in March, I went back to work in April. Was feeling pretty good apart from a burning sensation in the chest area not quite every day. I am on the gold standard meds, apparently and the GP advised that my 3 months was up to and to stop clopidogrel on 14 June. Which I did. He increased my

Persistent UTI's, appears only with sexual activity without protection
History of urinary tract infection I have had this infection for 3 years, Escherichia coli always comes out in the urine culture, except for one time when Proteus came out. For treatment I have used ciprofloxacin, amikacin, nitrofurantoin, levofloxacin (but there was resistance to it), Amoxicillin

Seeking any info: Our son was recently diagnosed with kidney disease
Hi, I'm a parent who is looking for possible answers or similar situations out there. Our 16-year-old son was diagnosed with kidney disease in March 2024. We've been trying to find medication and treatment to help with it. This all started in January 2024, when our son was complaining about back pain

S.hould I be concerned about my renal panel?
My pcp sent me to a nephrologist based on blood work in January. The nephrologist did blood and urine testing and said that my phosphorus was high but my problematic test results were due to dehydration. This sounded reasonable to me so she advised me to eat a low phosphorus diet and hydrate often

Is it over?
I tested using Boots Pregnancy Test Strips on day 10 after 5 day blastocyst transfer using midday urine sample. It was negative. Most likely it won’t turn positive. 😔

Methylprednisolone: my experience
I just wanted to post my experience of methylprednisolone IV in case it might help someone one day. I was in a big flare so my rheumatologist suggested IV methylprednisolone once a week for 3 weeks. It all happened so quickly I didn't know what to expect and I had a hard time finding any information.

Penile Implants
Here in the U.S. there are two penile implants for E. D. They are the Coloplast Titan and the AMS 700. Both are internal with a saline water bulb hidden in the scrotum. When an erection is needed it is pumped up. Afterwards a click and the thing puts the fluid back in the bulb. Surgery looks barbaric

confused but relieved
so today I went for a second opinion to another neurologist. My last grf was 48. It has been 36. He didn’t seem concerned. As he said people with stage three can live along time. My creative was 1.2 Which was not bad according to him. He found no blood in my urine. My blood pressure was fine. He

This is not how I am 😕
I saw my rheumatologist yesterday. A couple of weeks earlier than scheduled because I've felt very depressed. I feel no joy, no focus, no energy/vibe. My blood and urine tests were OK, but my skin is the worst he's seen it. 😫 He even, with consent, took a photo of my hands to show them to his medical
