Wife getting MMR vaccine booster - isolate or not?
I'm an SLL patient, 55 years old, now about 2.5 years into remission after 6 FCR treatments. I just recovered from a recent (and thankfully mild) bout of shingles. My shingles was so mild that my GP wasn't convinced it actually was shingles! She had me tested for herpes zoster antibodies, and for good

Vitamin D and Anemia: Insights into an Emerging Association
Found an interesting study. The conclusion sold it for me. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4659411/ CONCLUSION Vitamin D is associated with anemia in various study populations and recent evidence suggests that the association may differ by race and is likely specific to anemia of inflammation

secondary cancers
Hello I recently read an abstract on 6 year follow up of Ven + Obin. About 20% developed secondary cancers, half of these succumbed to these. The abstract did not address what types of cancers nor recommend specific screening. Does anyone have any DATA on 1. How this 20% compares to CLL patients

Advice on iron status
Hi lovely people, I was hoping to get some advice on my iron status. A bit of background, I have just recently increased levo to 88mcg a couple of weeks ago, and was on 75mcg before that. So, I am aware that my thyroid hormone is still too low. It's a slow process getting docs to increase! My question

Thyroid symptoms or Parkinsons, an update to my previous post
A huge thank you to all the people who gave me such good advice! My FT3 is slightly up and my FT4 is slighty down, result! Going in the right direction. My Vitamin D is improving, I will continue to use BetterYou sublingual sprays (D3+K2) for this, and magnesium. My Vitamin B12 hasn't moved much,

CHAMP Trial/Small Cell Chemo Update
If you don’t feel like reading my bio, I’ll give a synopsis: My dad is only 53 with advanced metastatic PC that spread to his liver earlier this year. His PSA had been undetectable so it really threw us for a loop. My dad finished 6 sessions of carbo & etoposide chemo about 3 weeks ago. He is still randomly

Newly Diagnosed PSC
Hi all I have IBD - diagnosed in 2020 and have mainly been in control of it since. I've now been diagnosed with PSC - had a liver biopsy, MRI, ultrasound and numerous blood tests to diagnose this. I'm going for a colonoscopy after Christmas to check my IBD is okay but I just wanted to reach out to anyone

Vitamin C and B12
Despite weekly injections of b12 my blood results show that I am only mid range and I am still symptomatic. I take codeine for arthritic pain and with this I take about 4000 mg of vitamin C to alleviate constipation. Is the vit C helping rid my body of B12 and if so can I just increase my injections

What is role of hormonal therapy drug when taken with targeted therapy, eg Piqray or Ibrance?
I’ve been curious about this and wondering if anyone can explain. I want to better understand the role of the hormone therapy eg Faslodex when taken with targeted therapy such as Ibrance. Does it just reduce the amount of estrogen available to the cell and “lightens the load” on the targeted therapy?

Now in hospice
I try to keep posts short and concise so I’ll try to keep this as brief as possible. We recently returned from a 2 week trip to SoCal to visit family and friends. I was hoping to post some nice QOL pics but in actuality the trip was fraught with difficulties. On return we had a visit with my husband

Anxiety Flair
I have loved with anxiety but have had it under control for quite some time now. Then out of no where I had a panic attack because my husband went out of town. Ever since my body has stayed amped up and my anxiety is out of control. My dr just switched me to Zoloft from celexa noting I had been on it

Back MRI Showed Pelvic Mass
Hello all! I am new here, so this is my first post. I had a back MRI in September 2023 in preparation for possible back surgery. The results of the MRI showed a pelvic mass in the area of left ovary. I took this information to my Gyn, who referred me to a GynOnc because of my age (65), the results

JFK - Kennedy and B12
Given the current coverage of the anniversary of the death of President Kennedy, it seems not unreasonable to post about his health issues - specifically the possibility of Pernicious Anaemia. This is a paragraph from near the end of the article. Not intended as anything other than an interesting footnote

It has been two weeks that I am taking one pill a day. My hemoglobin today was an8 and last week was 11 ,has anyone had a drop like this and one week with just one pill? My doctor does not seem concerned because I’m feeling fine. I am rechecking next week and just nervous about it going lower
