Greetings
Hello all. I am new to the site. I have been searching for a MBC-specific group to join since our situation is vastly different than many others. I went through my initial Breast Cancer starting in 2012. Stage 3. Chemo, radiation, bilateral mastectomy, reconstruction. All was well until October

Should I push harder for tests to rule out essential thrombocythemia?
I have a complex medical history, mixed connective tissue disease, RA, eosiniophilc esophagitis, hypopituitarism, adrenal insufficiency, exercise anaphylaxis, a bunch of things that are unrelated, some serious, some annoyances. I have extremely high bone density, so have degenerative spinal disease

On the edge with too many decisions
Long story, some venting, need input. Some of you have followed my story of my major car accident last March. It was the other driver’s fault, but I was really hurt. So, on top of COVID-19, I was hospitalized alone, had no job, and spent 9 moths in physical therapy only to have them tell me they have

Nerve Pain
Headaches are a nightmare, had to go to the opticians due to
loss
of
vision
and flickering. Assured me my eyes were ok but these episodes are causing me to have panic attacks. Just feel very down at the moment with feeling this weak. Is this normal for FMS and am I being a hypochondriac?

A glimmer of hope…
I’ve been on the IC for over 18 months now, I see a few familiar names that I remember from when I was here last. I SO miss running, not only for the physical benefits but for the mental health benefits too. I’ve been out due to osteoarthritis in my foot, I’ve got to the stage where I can’t even walk

Has anyone had ACDF/Discectomy & Spinal Fusion Surgery?
Has anyone had this surgery? I’m a potential candidate for this is have large herniated discs in C5-6 & C7-8. My Neurosurgeon said that first option would be a nerve block of pain wasn’t improving (it isn’t) but I feel this would only help pain and wouldn’t sort out the problem itself. I’m a 30 year

Alcohol-free hand sanitizer and other quaternary ammonium disinfectants quickly and effectively inactivate SARS-CoV-2.
Coronaviruses are enveloped viruses that commonly cause upper respiratory tract infections in humans and animals. Four known coronaviruses cause the common cold in humans, while another three have caused deadly outbreaks in the past 20 years, including SARS-CoV-2, the agent of Coronavirus Disease 2019

Sleeping more with levo, is this right?
I take my tablet early morning, around 6-ish when I wake up, its too early to get up these dark, cold mornings so I go back to bed, but then sleep until 9.30/10.30!!! I'm sleeping around 11/12 hours - Is this a 'normal' side effect? I don't sleep in the day and must admit am starting to have more energy

Lack of motivation
Hi all have not been on here for a while as motivation seemed to have deserted me, I haven't been out running for a week due to making excuses about weather,cold etc. But gave myself a kick up the butt this morning and went out. Did 8k in 70 mins, know it's not a brilliant time or speed but went slow

PSP Success - Complementary Therapies Rock!
My PSP was diagnosed 2018. No advice received from the medics, but I have a good GP. Immediately I started on personal research and a regime of complementary therapies (Cranial work has been brilliantly successful) plus targeted exercises (Pilates, etc), plus specific diet (organic Mediterranean),

Eye blood clots & ischemic strokes
I wonder if anyone else who has had
loss
of
vision
due to a blood clot in eye has actually had an ischemic stroke & should be treated as a normal brain stroke to prevent a more serious stroke, I now think that Hydroxichloriquinetablets could exacerbated the damage that I already had.
