484033 tn?1208516117 Capecitabine, Fluorouracil, and Oxaliplatin. All three drugs, whether used singly or as part of a combination regimen, are relatively well tolerated and have "milder" adverse effects when compared to other chemotherapy drugs.
Avatar m tn Mother (66F, colon CA IIIB) is starting her 4th round of XELOX (capecitabine+oxaliplatin) and has 4 more to go. Her neutrophils are naturally low (~1.6) without chemo (possibly related to the synthroid she has been taking since 2010?). By round 2 her neutro dropped to .6 so they gave her Neupogen and stopped capecitabine for 4 days. They gave her a longer-acting version of Neupogen before round 3 and lowered the dose of oxa to 90%. Before round 4 her neutro was back down at .9.
Avatar n tn Ok I have a red tail boa and I feed him mice. I'm about a month pregnant and was wondering if its ok to handle the mice and clean out their tank? Thank you.
Avatar m tn The drugs involved are capecitabine and oxaliplatin, my instinct is to protect my remaining kidney by not exposing it to toxins it may have difficulty in clearing. Has anybody out there had a similar experience or has undergone chemo with similar complications?
Avatar f tn I would suggest consulting you doctor for alternative brands for the same drug (capecitabine), that might be cheaper or considering alternative thereputic measures that you may be able to afford. It might also be a good idea to contact the social services in your region, if they would be in a position to help. Hope this is helpful. Take care!
408448 tn?1286883821 t really have any experience with Xeloda (Capecitabine) but just did a bit of reading on it and it seems to have quite good response rates so I hope it is successful for you. The drug should act on the tumor in the same way that 5-FU does as it is basically converted into 5-FU inside the tumor. This should mean fewer GI side effects and less bone marrow supression as you don't have 5-FU in the rest of your body... Good luck with it.
Avatar m tn To examine Hoxb8’s effect, the researchers injected bone marrow from mice with mutant Hoxb8 mice into healthy mice. The healthy mice began licking themselves compulsively, pulling out their fur and creating sores. In turn, the researchers injected the mutant mice with healthy bone marrow, and these mice became non-obsessive.
Avatar f tn Hi there, I posted a few weeks ago to say my Mum may be going on a trial as they were all out of options. She started the trial yesterday. They are trying a combination of eribulin and capecitabine. As it's a phase 1 trial it's to establish a safe dose so she will be given the drugs in an increasing amount to see what the body can handle and the effect it has. I will keep you all posted on her progress and any good news that comes from the trial.
Avatar f tn After giving birth to my 2nd child, I had an MRI of my lower back to help determine the cause of low back pain. It showed a bulging disc and a herniated disc at L4-L5 and L5-S1. Underwent disc decompression and that corrected this. The pain was still there. My GP determined that the little fatty "knots" in my low back were back mice and began injecting them wtih lidocaine. This gave me temporary relief. I'm still having pain and the back mice are still there.
Avatar n tn How can I treat my cat with ear mice?
Avatar m tn do not come into contact with the dead mice their droppings or any surfaces the mice have come in contact with. U can contact a disease called lvcm which is dangerous to an unborn baby. Have a non pregnant person dispose of the mice and their droppings and clean infected areas with bleach to kill the virus. Also winterize ur home to keep them out and call in an exterminator. Also notify ur ob u have had contact with rodents so they can monitor things.
Avatar m tn The antiviral study showed that all mice receiving Myrcludex-B remained negative for HDV and HBV serological and intrahepatic markers, whereas untreated mice became infected.way to go, this is the first drug that stops hbv by blocking hbsag in 100% of treated subjects.
1085681 tn?1280176627 I live in the mountians and we got mice in the winter, I opened all my doors even to closets and picked up everything off the floor and they have disapered! We also got those sticky traps and put some peanutbutter on them and did not fold them and with in 30 min every time we had one. Now they are gone. It is winter so that is mroeso why they are there but after you clean everything they will go away. They hate peppermint esential oil too!
1981227 tn?1336328438 He added a sugar called GlcNAc to the diet of experimental MS exhibiting mice. These mice seem to have a more RRMS phenotype. He found when he added this sugar to the diet that there was a reduction in relapses!! He did may over experiments too that can be read about in the article linked below. How great would that be for a treatment?? Extra sugar in your coffee??? This was very exciting to me! 1.A. Grigorian, L. Araujo, N. N. Naidu, D. Place, B. Choudhury, M. Demetriou.
Avatar n tn This includes the drugs vinorelbine, capecitabine, gemcitabine and the taxanes. Still another option, particularly if the cancer is at an early stage, would be to use hormonal treatment alone instead of chemotherapy.
599170 tn?1300973893 doing a lesson on plurals in school, plural of mouse is mice. he says Mom what about computer mouse? I thought humm I think it would be mouses? what do you think ? As in I am holding a box full of broken computer mouses. Is that right?
Avatar f tn In the study, capsaicin was found to reduce the activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) in mice models. HSCs are the major cell type involved in liver fibrosis, which is the formation of scar tissue in response to liver damage.
3191940 tn?1447268717 That's an interesting article! First, I did not know mice got Alzheimer's. Do you think they know they are mice when they do? How do they know the mice have Alzheimer's? Okay, I'll stop. But really, how fantastic would that be to have a preventative measure for this debilitating health issue? Heck ya I'd take that vaccine! The article didn't say how long until it will be tested on humans. I hope the benefit they see in mice carries over. I'm all for it!
Avatar n tn I noticed at the end of the day that i had these baby mice all over the bottom of my boat. I must of had a mice nest in my boat and the babies must have crawled out of the various benches. My main concern is that i was exposed to rabies from possible contact with these baby mice that were all over the place. When i got to land, i flipped the boat, and noticed the mothers tail come through the bench.
Avatar m tn when they ll test on humans and show hcc cure they will have a value, a study on mice alone has very little value...
Avatar m tn We have evaluated the potential of a novel vaccine formulation comprising particulate hepatitis B surface (HBsAg) and core antigen (HBcAg), and the saponin-based ISCOMATRIX™ adjuvant for its ability to stimulate T and B cell responses in C57BL/6 mice and its ability to break tolerance in syngeneic HBV transgenic (HBVtg) mice.
Avatar m tn LED exposure and study groups rule is as following, The 40 mice were randomly split into four groups (each contained 10 mice), including (1) white family LED irradiation for a consecutive 2-week period (2 hr/day), (2) white LED irradiation for a consecutive 4-week period (2 hr/day), (3) environmental light source with white family LED lamps (the illuminated light of 12-hr light/ 12-hr dark cycle with white family LED lamps), and (4) blank control (no LED exposure).
1763947 tn?1334055319 They found that those mice were sicker than the other mice with just one or the other, even though the overall spirochete load was actually lower in the dual infected mice. They were theorizing that there might be some kind of competition between the two variations that somehow made their affect on the body worse. Maybe that's what happens between Lyme and coinfections, too. I also read a paper from a psychiatrist who became aware of Bartonella and its neuropsychiatric effects.
Avatar f tn A few days later, six mice were killed in an accident and they all went to Heaven together. God met the mice at the gates with the same offer that He made to the cat. The mice said, 'Well, we have had to run all of our lives: from cats, dogs, and even people with brooms! If we could just have some little roller skates, we would not have to run again.' God answered, 'It is done.' All the mice had beautiful little roller skates.
Avatar f tn Ok so this will be strange for some of you but I have snakes. I also have mice to breed for the food for the snakes and breed my pretty mice if I have interested pet adopters. Is there any one out there that has mice/snakes and do you take any precautions in cleaning their cages or is it just with litter boxes? Btw, my mice and snakes are not diseased...
