Home Oxygen Therapy
I don't recall seeing this mentioned on here but was wondering if anyone had experiences of being discharged home with Oxygen after an ICU stay. I'm a month out of hospital (after a total stay of 8 months). I was discharged with a CPAP machine for OSA and prescribed 1l of oxygen at night whilst in the

Apple watch and Kardia questions
I saw my cardiologist yesterday and we have agree although no AF yet (maybe A flutter) on 24hr ECG getting a watch and maybe a kardia is a good idea. I am planning to buy the watch and the local apple shop ( Edinburgh UK) and wanted to ask a few questions before hand. Ive read some on what the watch

Delay date for Lupron injection
I am due to get my third 6 monthly dose of Lupron injection in late May. I plan to travel during that time. Is there any harm if I should postpone the injection date by 2 or 3 weeks beyond the 6 months dateline?My PSA reading is currently below 0.1 ug/l. Secondly, I am contemplating going on ADT vacation

cardioversion
hi, I had my first Cardioversion at St Richards Chichester on 11th March. (First diagnosed early January but probably been in AF since Sept) It worked initially but reverted to AF very shortly after. Since watching the very helpful video interview on this site with Prof Gupta, now realise that most revert

Heart problems

New research
Did anyone listen to the piece on talk radio today about new lupus research? So exciting for all autoimmune diseases! Here is an article I found about it. https://lens.monash.edu/@medicine-health/2024/02/06/1386418/breakthrough-heralds-immune-personalised-medicine-for-lupus?amp=1

Docetaxel results so far
People want to know if Docetaxel is worth doing due to the side effects. My husband just had a recent PSMA PET scan after 5 treatments and the result is compared with the same scan method done before treatment began: [i]Impression (Summary)[/i] [i]Mild improvement in subcarinal adenopathy, left lung

Looking for feedback regarding Asymptomatic Afib
I'm fairly new to this forum and I already feel at home. It's very refreshing to find an online community whose members are so kind, understanding and generous. By way of introduction, I'm a 69-year-old male living in Connecticut. My Afib history is as follows: Diagnosed with Afib by PCP - 8/9/

misdiagnosed cirrhosis?
I was diagnosed with cirrhosis approximately a year ago. Had all the classic symptoms with ascites being the worst. Every time the gastroenterologist sent me for an MRI, the ascites has interfered with the test. He reluctantly gave me a diagnosis of cirrhosis when pushed but didn’t seem confident. Been

hashimotos and cortisol testing
Hi there because of the fatigue I am experiencing, I am thinking of having some tests done to see if my cortisol is ok. I am aware of the short synachten test, the straight forwards blood test for cortisol or the 4x a day saliva test. Not really sure where to start or if this will be useful to my healing

Help Needed! Have I got Pernicious Anaemia?
I hope this isn't too long and/or too boring. I suspect I have PA but as with a lot of people here, no-one seems to take B12 deficiency seriously. I also have hypothyroidism so as my symptoms got increasingly worse over the past few years, I blamed my thyroid - the two conditions have many symptoms

Australian research - possible cure?
I don’t like raising false hope among our community about ‘cures’ toted in the media, but I found this article interesting. It’s about the T-cells, which many of us already know is involved in autoimmune activity: https://www.sbs.com.au/news/podcast-episode/australian-researchers-develop-world-first-method-of-treating-lupus

What category of Intermediate Risk Am I?
I am trying to make a decision regarding HT with RT. I am 78. I have CKD 3b, and a solitary kidney. I am 6.5 years in remission from UTUC kidney cancer. A number of papers indicate that HT could be detrimental to my kidney. Those with FIR PCa could avoid HT with little risk. The following is defined

Treatment after Lu /Pluvicto?
It seems that there is paucity of data related to the effectiveness of treatments after Lu/Pluvicto. I'm beginning to suspect that pubished survival benefits for Radium 223/Pluvicto and chemotherapy cannot be assumed to be anticipated if the patient has had Pluvicto. My husband has completed 6 sessions

Prostate cancer in liver
Have recently had a PSMA scan. This did show some hot spots for sure. But also, three smaller spots on my liver that did not give off PSMA. Did a liver Biopsy. which is rather painful I might add. Will meet with my 0ncologist on Monday to look at options. Any suggestion for the three rather small spots
