We know the tumor is in a slightly different area than it was originally. He is in treatment (Temodar for the second time) for the third recurrence of his tumor. We have always been told it is in an area where surgery has not been an option. The oncologist does say he believes it is a higher grade. We think he believes it is glioblastoma but he won't say that definitely without doing another biopsy.
i also take hormones and xanax...i read where alot of my meds have interactions...but pharmisits say its ok.............
A month ago my husband (41) had a tumor resection of a GBM in the left temporal/frontal lobe. He is still recovering from surgery and has begun cancer treatment (temodar& radiation) a week ago. He has a previous accident injury where he has struggled with neck pain for ten years. He has been on suboxone for probably 7 years now. He is currently taking his suboxone but is not getting any relief for his head pain.
The doctors at the reputable renowned hospital in Chicago claimed to have never seen a tumor this large in an adult. He received radiation and chemo for six weeks and remained on temodar for almost 18 months. The last ten percent of his tumor (near the brainstem but according to images not infiltrating into) did shrink a bit during treatment and has remained “dormant”. This all sounds amazing but he seems to be getting worse.
Likewise, I was never told to avoid taking anything with my levothyroxine besides food and calcium/multivitamin (basically just not at the same time, but I could still have a multivitamin). I've also never had a problem taking benedryl (besides that it knocks me out) or any other drug with my hypothyroid meds.
If you're on a drug for your hypothyroidism, there is this nifty tool at the top- under drugs, you can find drug interaction.
to be honest with you i would not i waited for a computer fespond for that i would have asked my primary doctor that question since he/she knows your history.
This morning the pain is still there as is some slight nausea though I was able to eat something. Does anyone know of drug interactions between Anacin and Progesterone? Is there something else it could be?
( and under that Metoprolol was mentioned )
You could bypass your doctor and consult your local chemist if you are worried about the interactions. I think that would be exactly what I would do. Chemists can be very helpful. But you would have to be experiencing some bad side effects? Or tell a little white lie and say you are and see what the chemist says.
