Negative genetic test results and treatment impacts
I was diagnosed with Stage 2a low grade serous carcinoma, had a total hysterectomy and currently receiving frontline Taxol/Carbol treatments. I’ve had 3 treatments with 3 more to go. I had genetic testing of a 43 gene panel and the results were all negative. The geneticist is resubmitting to include

Nagging ache
Had a mastectomy Oct 15, and it doesn’t feel right, if I lift or stretch, I get this horrible nagging feeling, in the back by shoulder blades, and sometimes it catches my breath and makes me cough, any ideas on what to do to ease this would be good.x

WHAT'S YOUR OPINION OF THESE LAB RESULTS?
These are some, not all, of the results of my last bloodwork done on October 29, 2019. These are US estimates. I didn't include the ones that was in normal range but I do have some things that are either the high ens or low end of normal and was wondering if this could effect ones swnse of overall well

Blood test results
In October 2017, I had half my thyroid removed and did not need to take any medication for about a year until I started to have several hypo symptoms (hair loss, constipation, aching joints, blurred vision, pain in hands, weight gain, etc). On October 5, 2018, my doctor prescribed 50mcg Synthroid daily

Iron deficiency again?
I'm not sure if I'm correct but it looks my recent results indicate iron deficiency again (lab tech put borderline next to iron status). Here are results: * Full blood count * Total white blood count 4.4 10*9/L [4.2 - 11.2] Red blood cell count 4.94 10*12/L [3.73 - 4.96] Haemoglobin concentration

Hi: Stage 1 in 2010-double mastectomy & failed to tolerate Tamoxifen (as I was going through menopause); but low oncotype score so took a chance. Diagnosed with Mets to Lymph and Lungs 11/2017. Currently on my 16th cycle Ibrance/letraziole; ct Scans every 3 mos. All have shown much improvement & now

TKR April 2018 stiffness and sore at 7 months out.
Hi, Im 7 months out of TKR and wish I had never had this surgery. My knee is very mechanical feeling, sore and stiff. I have pretty good range of motion but not w/o pain. I dont need any pain meds and I dont take any RX or OTC drugs. I suspect my spine is the culprit as Ive have spinal fusion at L3-L5

Newly Diagnosed Breast Cancer
I'm new to this website. I'm very scared right now after learning I have DCIS in situ. My MRI has shown a little more breast cancer involvement, so the specialist says treatment must be a mastectomy, not a lumpectomy as originally thought. Although I feel if I must trade a breast for my life, it's
