Waiting to do next set of liver enzyme tests, obsessing about everything!
New to this group and want to thank all of you who contribute your stories, it’s been eye opening to say the least. I will do my next round of liver enzyme tests next week, which will be 3.5 weeks since the first tests. I will be traveling for 1 month shortly thereafter, that is why it wasn’t scheduled

Another tumour 😩
Sadly the cystoscopy showed another tumour today. The fourth return since 2016 looks like the Mitomycin isn’t working for me. I’m thinking BCG is the next step after the operation on 3 September. Hoping it’s another benign one like the last time 🤞🌻 Hope you’re having a more positive start to the week

Flu and flare
Last week, I felt a cold coming on. Sore throat, coughing, etc, I blamed it on my allergy to heavy seasonal pollen. I used inhalers and just plodded through....then 3 days ago, I woke in the night with teeth chattering chills, elevated temp, and all over body aches. A trip to the GP, who did an

Vaccines and Ocrevus question?
I just read Fancy1959's post from yesterday "One is silver, One is gold". During the course of the change several of you mentioned being on Ocrevus and taking the shingles vaccine. My neurologist said I'm not too take vaccines with a live virus such as the shingles vaccine. She indicated that with

BCG vaccine - now, later & side effects
I’m keen to hear about parents’ recent experiences of their newborn receiving the BCG vaccine, please - what the side effects were and whether anyone paid to get it a bit later on (and how much it cost). I’m due to give birth in the next few weeks. I’ve been told that the BCG vaccine will be offered

Post Hysterectomy Thyroid Woes
Hi all. I would truly appreciate any advice you can offer before my next doctor visit in 2 days time. After years of unsuccessfully controlling debilitating cramps and severe bloodloss, I finally relented to having a hysterectomy on Feb 13th 2019. I kept both ovaries, but after a 5 day stay in hospital

Methotrexate and constant infections

HRT
Had a RCA STEMI on Sunday night just gone. I’m now home and starting to process everything. Saw my GP today and he’s taken me off my HRT. Said I could now have free flu jab tho! I would rather have the HRT, do I definitely have to come off it? Looking online just reflects the ever changing stances on

New shingles vaccine
Everyone being treated for Prostate Cancer should consider getting the newer shingles vaccine. Given in two shots a couple of months apart, it is 90% effective compared to 50% for the old vaccine. Shingles can be very painful and debilitating and you should ask you PCP to arrange for the shots. I am

Flu and Flare-up
In early March I caught the flu. I completely lost my appetite. I didn't want to eat anything. On March 8th I felt so bad that I requested a home visit from the GP. She said that this year in the local community the flu seemed to be worse in the patients who had had the flu jab. She prescribed Tamiflu

Shingles shots and PCa meds?
I'm on Lupron/Zytiga/Prednisone and soon on Xgeva. Has anyone been aware of any interactions between these meds and the new shingles vaccine? I will see my MO later this month but, as we all know, they don't know everything.
