TERRIBLE UTI FEELING FOR A MONTH POST SURGERY.
Hello ladies. I am having the worst time with intense bladder pain post diagnostic lap. UTI come back negative for infection so it appears its not bacterial. Anyone else had this experience and able to offer advice? It's crippling and much worse than the pain I had pre surgery. I can't bear more weeks

In the Rush to Return to ‘Normal,’ What Happens to the Vulnerable? By Sarah Wildman in NYT 04/10/22
“Covid-19 need no longer control our lives,” President Biden announced in the State of the Union address, speaking to a room of unmasked though back-room-tested members of Congress. He then offered, magnanimously: “If you’re immunocompromised or have some other vulnerability, we have treatments and free

PTH high after third infusion, can't find a competent endocrinologist to consult
My PTH (parathyroid hormone) turned out to be quite high: 167 after my second chemo. Has never before been tested. Not sure what to make of it. My MO doesn't know what to do, partly because calcium and potassium levels are still ok. My endo is out of the country and I was told he doesn't treat high

Insomnia induced by opiods
I have been struggling forever with insomnia caused by taking opiods for RLS. Like many of you here it's worth it because the relief from RLS is so wonderful. I recently added Olanzapine 5mg at night for sleep. I know it's on the naughty list as it tends to increase RLS symptoms. I decided to go ahead

MIN-102 update: summer 2022
Hi everyone, I am persisting with the min-102 trial and yesterday had my 10th visit. Nothing particularly different about the visit: the usual 6 minute walking and balance trials, the annual MRI scan and echocardiogram and the questionnaires and meeting with a specialist. What I did learn is that Minoryx

Blood pressure meds
I was previously put on triamterene with a diuretic when I started having kidney Grf issues. So I asked my doctor to put me on Lisinopril. It seems to protect the kidneys. My blood pressure this morning was 141/80. It has been fluctuating from 134/70 etc. while I am afraid to switch I wonder if this

Ca125
My ca125 has risen quite a bit in the last two months. Went from 21 to 42 and now it is at 58 the last check. Getting ct scan Monday. Last one in January was clear. Dr said he relies more on the scan cause the ca125 can fluctuate for different reasons, such as an infection. My scan was clear, but showed
