I feel like crap and my 5th sense?
I don’t know what to do anymore my anxiety is sooooo bad literally I feel it through me. My klonopin really doesn’t do much it’s hit or miss if it will work or make me feel worse most times makes me feel worse. Had to call 911 for my mom again last night she fell twice she’s in the hospital for a couple

Pill to end life
I do have a big concern. I was told by my doctors and also palliative care, that there is a pill to take to end your life. My doctors won’t give to me without chemo and radiation, however. I think it’s important to be able to have one as soon as possible. If I have a stroke or other disturbing effects

Ano regrets?
I was diagnosed with cll earlier this year,with bizarrely high wbc,but still really enjoy an active life. I'm reluctant to take treatment as it seems to actually cause the symptoms of cll which I don't at present have.I am anaemic, and taking any drugs apparently makes it worse, so I'm reluctant

Dr. Buchfuhrer Webinar on RLS.org
Just wondered if anyone else watched the webinar 10/13/22? The audio was spotty first 20 minutes or so but interesting after it was fixed. He answered questions for an hour. He said there was new research on TENS for RLS that seemed hopeful but not complete. I had been trying accupuncture for RLS and

Vit B12 extremely high
So, I have stage 4 de novo prostate CA. On Lupron, in between 5th & 6th docetaxel chemo. Had to stop abiraterone due to elevated bilirubin & will try restarting after chemo is over. Recently diagnosed with MGUS (Monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance) which is unrelated to the prostate.
