Percutaneous Transhepatic Cholangiogram
Hi All, It looks like mums Carbo/Caelyx treatment has not been working and she has a blockage in her bile duct from her liver where the disease has progressed. They tried to put a stent in the bile duct today but it was unsuccessful therefore they are doing a Percutaneous Transhepatic. Cholangiogram

Our Street Fifty Years Ago...
Mr Moriarty called this afternoon...he was carrying an empty bag of Beef Finisher and a plastic dustpan. Stumped up the yard to where I was leaning over the half-door of my shed...wiping his brow and breathing heavily. He's very plump is Mr Moriarty. After we'd exchanged greetings and remarks about

Does anybody have vocal chord dysfunction?
I have just been diagnosed with this after years of telling my GP the feeling I got during exercise was not normal asthma. I've been referred to speech and language therapy to learn to control it - just wondering if anybody has been through this and what to expect?

Sjorgrens. Do you have swallowing difficulties?
Hi. Continuing my search for answers. I still have no feeling beyond my throat. Pharynx? Do you have this? Is it called a thickening? How do you cope with it? I still feel unwell. My face is covered in spots which I cannot clear despite all the adverts cures etc. I drink at least 10 pints of water

Another update
Saw my rheumatologist today, confirmed I have CREST, got to have barium swallow to see what damage has been done to my oesophagus & may need referral for lungs, but apart from that, I'm doing fine.

Pre Scleroderma Confusion
After alot of back and forth I have recently been told I am "pre-scleroderma" whatever that means. The rheumatologist wasn't exactly clear about any of it and the reading I have done is just confusing me more and more. Can anyone spell it out simply for me please... I originally went to the doctor with

Swallowing trigger for atrial arrythmia
About 20 years ago I battled atrial ectopic beats and some afib. All the tests were negative so it remained a mystery. The one thing that made me unique was the fact that every time I swallowed, the normal rhythm was disturbed by pauses and ectopic beats. Occasionally this resulted in a bout of afib.

ENTERIC COATING....MAY NEED SOME WARNINGS
Having just gone through my worst flare of my 15 months of actively dealing with GCA and PMR......I've ended up spending most of my time in bed with time to think. Hubby and I have done some posting about our decision to split my daily dosage ( 18mg ) to relieve some of my morning PMR pain. For three

Erosive gastritis and PA. Please advise re diet and medication!
Hi All, I have had PA for about 6 years and had a gastroscopy when first diagnosed. Recent barium swallow showed moderate gastric reflux and recent gastroscopy showed mild erosive gastritis. My GP prescribed Omeprazole which I have started very reluctantly ( side effects look worrying) but it's necessary

Awake
I have been up since 4.00am, but just lazing about, back aches and I have just noticed my skin on my legs has got very thin. My veins show through , I am on steroids 10mgs. Do steroids thin your skin? Also I met someone who had cancer , now in remission. But he gave me some advice . To use red thyme

Saw palmetto capsules
Hi since I was diagnosed as hypothyroid, I have lost more & more of my hair on the top & sides of my head, and it was becoming a real problem. My mother (also hypo like me) has the same problem and her hair is terribly thin. I did some research on line, and for a month have been taking 1000mg saw palmetto
