Proctitis from Radiation
I had 27 sessions of IMRT in 2019 for prostate cancer. Even though I had the SpaceOAR procedure, I believe I have some rectal damage. Every now and then when I wipe after a bowel movement, there will be a bit of raw blood. I did have hemorrhoid surgery in 2008 but didn't see any blood through the years

Probiotics for Radiation Associated GI Side Effects ?
I’m on round 4 / 28 of IMRT to my prostate, pelvic lymph nodes and right hip. Things are generally going well except for some mild nausea and abdominal cramping. Some have suggested taking probiotics. I’m not a yogurt fan so don’t want to try that. Other suggestions for brands I might try? TIA

just wondering If Cirrhosis secondary to NASH with portal hypertension is de compensated or compensated I understand that varices and Ascites are normally present with de compensated but does having the portal hypertension make a difference ?

Hello all After getting severe pains in the upper arms on lifting and lowering them for many years and having tried physiotherapy exercises without any success, my GP has finally diagnosed supraspinatus tendonitis as the condition. The option I have been given is a steroid injection. Having read

Etoricoxib?
Finally got to see rheumatologist on 8 Dec for the urgent appointment requested by my GP in June (!) He took a detailed history and did a thorough examination (I didn’t realize how much everything was hurting until he prodded all the muscles round my joints - been quite sore since.) His conclusion

All regular use sublingual opioid medications etc how to protect your teeth.
REGULAR use of sublingual medications, from opioids to Valium etc I break mine into tiny pin head size pieces with a pill cutter. I know 200 mcg Temgesic or 2 mg of Buprenorphine looks very small, however I have followed this process for over 3 years now. - Reasons - Absorption in seconds - Better

Valium alternatives
So while in hospital for my barrage of tests etc I was taking high doses of slow K and slow Mag morning and night (magnesium and potassium) and Thiamine (high dose in the morning) and Valium in the morning and at night. The supplements I’ll get a clearer picture of from my nephrologist that originally

Undetectable PSA
Yesterday I received my 3rd Eligard (3 month) injection. I'm also on Zytiga and finished 44 IMRT 5 weeks ago. The cancer center is attached to a large hospital and they test the blood work in house. MO says everything looked great and that my PSA is now undetectable. The lab report says <0.0 ng/ml

New standard on IMRT number of sessions?
My younger brother is currently undergoing IMRT sessions at 2Gy per session. Can anyone here show a clinical study report that shows the efficacy of less sessions? He was told that the new IMRT machine they are using only needed 28 sessions. I can understand it if it was hypofractionated, but he was

Hoping for the best
Last year I was diagnosed with advanced Stage 3 prostate cancer. The cancer had spread to the seminal vesicles but there was no further invasion that could be detected. Surgery failed because the prostate was to closely adhered to the rectum, so I underwent 45 sessions of IMRT. I am now on Abiraterone

Blood pressure post vaccine
Hi I don't know if this is related or just coincidence but has anyone noticed a rise in BP after covid vaccination? I had my 5th one on Saturday and BP raised. I normally have quite good BP.
