mavic hub maintenance

I recurred about 7 months post chemo. That was carbo/taxol, 6 treatments. Question. Should I consider maintenance therapy? Should it be chemotherapy. I do not want to go on Avistan due to bowel involvement. Has anyone had success with maintenance. My doctors are considering it. One says he doesn't object. The other one said that it can harm my body while off chemo. Is maintenance always chemotherapy? Are there any good drugs out there? Any input would be greatly appreciated!

Dear Dr. Goodman ... What is your opinion on maintenance after chemotherapy. I just completed my 6th treatment of gemzar/carbo for recurrence. Prior to my second treatment I had complete secondary cytoreductive surgery. My CA125 is now in the single digits. My CT scan will never be clear. It shows all kinds of problems due to the radical surgery. My doctor is using them to see if any change has occured. I do not want to go on Avistan. Does anything work?

Has anybody had any problems getting insurance to pay for maintenance? My doctor told me since the study came out that maintenance does not work insurance companies no longer want to cover it. I have decided to go back on maintenance, but It was recommended I go for SOC. They have no problems getting this approved even though it will be my 6th or 7th time. I just need something to hold me over until I can get Vertex. Being a relapser my chances of getting in a trail is next to none.

Hello, I am a first time pregnant mom to be at 35 and I have some complex med problems that require maintenance meds. I'm epileptic with a small brain tumor and taking Lamotrigine, which I know isn't great for the baby. But I'm low dose (200 mgs a day) and a seizure will most likely cause more injury to the baby than stopping. I also have an anxiety disorder and chronic pain due to a failed knee surgery a few years ago.

Some need it for yrs to keep from relapsing. Like methadone it is a maintenance narcotic to keep people off the streets altho methadone is a full agonist and can allow other drugs in and overdoses are more possible. If u have tried everything else including aftercare and u can not stay clean...or if u r a very high user or have a strong doc....I would consider it after i educated myself on theis powerhouse narcotic.....

Help with methadone maintenance I don't want to be tied up any more with my daily visits to my clinic. Just wanted to ask if anyone had any experience with switching methadone 95mg once daily, to fentanyl patch 100mcg Hour patch? or know the methadone mg fentanyl dose equivalents?

Miss you guys. Doing well on the Sub maintenance. Steady. Wanted to start my taper last month but too much going on to even think about it. I have found and told my doctor that Sub is the best antidepressant I have ever been on. I have been on a few, but since I have been on the Subs and considering all that I have been thru the past few months, Sub has been a wonderful antidepressant for me. I told my Doctor and he agreed that it does have that effect. I am in no hurry now to start my taper.

Hey...would love to hear from some of you who have been on suboxone maintenance & your thoughts & feelings about it. I am currently on it for a oxycodone addiction. It is really helping me, but I sometimes feel as though I am replacing one drug for another, although I feel I can function in the world without constantly thinking about pills, swallowing them, worrying when I'm going to run out & how to get my next stash. What are some of your experiences good or bad on suboxone?

Maybe one day they will use the PI as maintenance for the ones who dont respond to SOC and PI drugs.Ive heard of aids people liiving a lot longer now because of the PI`s too.Some are with aids for 25 years and still doing ok. "An apple a day keeps the doctor away, But if the doctor is cute forget the fruit.

Im looking for advice on getting through this a little easier. I have no experience with maintenance and the Dr.s are quick to tell you that you cant be successfull in doing it! Please someone help me! Im all alone with a 5 month old baby and need advice!

Hello, I have been having pretty severe maintenance insomnia for the last few weeks and wondering what you would recommend to do about it, as it seems to be getting worse. At first I would wake up in the night because of where I was living at the time due to "environmental disturbances" (ie loud noises at night) and so would get up and go to the bathroom but then fall right back asleep.

when someone is starting a methadone maintenance program, how long does it take or become stable? my boyfriend started about a month ago but has been changing mgs often. he says to stabilize himself.

A common frustration many (including me) have is removing the needle cap. I can only speak for the pre-filled syringes of Pegasys and hope this helps. Have a look at these pictures: http://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/archives/image.cfm?archiveid=49606&type=img&name=pegasys-04.jpg http://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/archives/image.cfm?archiveid=49606&type=img&name=pegasys-08.jpg See the portion called THE HUB?? That's the part that attaches to the syringe.

Haven't heard much about it this year, ya'll remember last years' hub bub. Nothing exciting on the agenda this year I guess.

I was just reading up on pancreatic cell transplant- apparently there was a patient in Italy that received a transplant of pancreatic cells, and unlike previous attempts, they have seen her insulin free for about 15 months. They created something called a bio-hub, here's a section of the article that talks about it: "They were able to do this by creating a mini organ called a bio-hub.

i would think that being a sex addict w/ur hub is a good thing...when its not ur hub then its a bad thing!

i had sex with a sex worker it was protected anways i got my self tested at 8 week and 10 week and 12 weeks it was negative however at my 12 week test i did not see the lad guy unpack the syringe in front of me but i specially requested for a syringe due to i did not like the Venipuncture method due to they do not change the plastic hub ad i have seen dried up blood in the plastic hub. i did not see any blood on the syringe the plastic cap was also on please reply?

I laid my hand between the cracks of the bleachers at school, and unknowingly felt something weird and sharp touching me. It turned out to be a really thin needle that was inside the plastic hub, 3/4 the length of the hub. Last question, can the needle that was used to be injected into someone, be pushed back inside the plastic hub? (I guess as a "safety" feature") ? Thank you.
