New study may help explain low oxygen levels in COVID-19 patients
A new study published in the journal Stem Cell Reports by University of Alberta researchers is shedding light on why many COVID-19 patients, even those not in hospital, are suffering from hypoxia—a potentially dangerous condition in which there is decreased oxygenation in the body’s tissues. The study

Comparison of systemic corticosteroids
This morning I accidently opened this site I'd bookmarked some time ago. As occasionally there are questions about the action of different medications I thought it would be of interest, although its focus is on treating skin conditions. It compares cortisone, hydrocortisone, prednisone, methylprednisolone

I have had ITP for 5 months and no medications have helped....Prednisone, Dexamethasone (very temporary) Revolade and Rituximab. IVIG ???
Has anyone here been having IVIG infusions on a regular basis (perhaps every three weeks) rather than having a splenectomy?

Feet Neuropathy with Docetaxel
I am in Day 12 of my fifth infusion on Docetaxel. Chemo Crash is over for this session and my "Fog" is starting to go away. Since my first infusion, I have had very mild neuropathy in my feet - even though I wear ice sox and mittens during the infusions. The neuropathy has been very tolerable and it

Zytiga &Dexamethasone or what?
Dear all My dad started taking Zytiga with Prednisone 2.5 months ago and he would take PSA test (and maybe other test) in next 2 weeks as per his doctor’s prescription. We are a little bit worried if Zytiga & Prednisone don’t work for him because he feels passing urine is more difficult than previously

Continuing discussion of Adaptive Theory-- Why does early chemotherapy result in lower response rates to Lu-177 and immunotherapy??
Greetings FPC warriors, In the spirit of continuing cujoe's look at Adaptive Theory, I raise the question of whether early chemotherapy plays a role in creating resistance. Recently, posters/bloggers have been showing some of the early results reported from PEACE I trial, but the question remains as

Almost 5 mos. in post-thyroidectomy
The good, bad, and ugly thus far for me: Good: Had Graves, eyes FREAKED out immediately after thyroidectomy, got put on dexamethasone for 1 mo., and thank God, they're doing better after that. They now look less bulged out than while I had Graves, they feel less gritty and irritated, and the stare is

Cause of fluctuating Cortisol Results ?
Morning, Will try and condense the last 5 years of cortisol results, as thoroughly confused, cortisol Vs thyroid. Cortisol was tested under endo who I had been referred to in 2015 with regards my thyroid. In Aug 2015 my results show a level of 992 ( V high) with an ACDH of 8.79, not sure if the latter

Please help........new patient
Diagnosed Dec 2021 with ITP. Have tried Prednisone, IVIG, Dexamethasone Revolade and now Rituximab. My platelets have always been 100-137 prior to Dec. I had a very bad bladder infection and platelets dropped to 1 and have not recovered. I have had no episodes of bleeding. Could I have been misdiagnosed

Cut in dexamethasone
Husband has been on prednisone and then dexamethasone along with Zytiga for 2 years and 8 months. My worry is his adrenal glands won’t function as we are having to wean him off the dex due to water retention. Any thoughts? Dex has been 9 months. Stopping zytiga as well for now.

What’s Next?
Dad’s PSA has been rising for some time now. I feel that something is wrong. My father started Zytiga in 2019, he switched from prednisone to dexamethasone as well. His PSA was fluctuating between 0.03-0.05. Then it rose to 0.07, stayed stable then it rose to 0.11. Today’s checkup indicated his PSA rose

Leg Pain
Hi everyone, just a question with regards to pain that my old man is feeling at the moment. It started round about the time he started radiotherapy on his Prostate. They decided to do an MRI and although this chucked up a couple more lesions than what was already known, he was cleared for spinal compression

Water weight gain with Zytiga and dexamethasone.
Anyone being taken off Zytiga due to heart issues? Husband has gained a lot of water weight due to an issue with his heart perhaps caused by the Zytiga. Thoughts?

Sensitive teeth
Have any of you on Zytiga and dexamethasone experienced sensitivity in your teeth? I get a three month injection of Xgeva, therefore am concerned about any dental problems that might creep up. Before my last shot of Xgeva I had to go to my dentist and have x-rays to make sure gum areas were clear. .Please

AMG Clinical Trial Update
I have been silent since the end of January. Not just on the board. I am not sure why I clammed up, but I decided the roller coaster was too much for my family. Also, I have been having trouble processing my thoughts on the clinical trial. The COVID positive from January 11, turned into a 4-week interruption
