12832842 tn?1448728801 I was wondering if anyone has been using it. I worry about pml, I worry about cancer, I worry about everything! It’s why I had such a love affair with copaxone. Most natural. Latest mri had shown 4 new lesions/ mild progression. But noted overall disease burden is mild. I guess the argument is my doc wants to keep it that way. Any thoughts? Ty!! Andrea.
Avatar f tn I'm new to this app and I just realized there were message boards.. I'm wondering if the boards are designed to go By your weeks or age? Sorry If I sound like an idiot but I was just checking..
Avatar f tn Well, we need to start somewhere. Feel free to message me, I have a decent amount of tips for you. First things first, IF you are in taking caffeine, stop. Using all caps tells me that you are really wanting help.......so, like I said, feel free to message me so I know you are still checking the boards.
Avatar m tn I am a gay man of 20 years and recently I heard that people who practiced oral sex with more than 6 couples have 250% more likely to have throat cancer caused by HPV. I have had more or less the number of sexual partners, and I'm a little worried, because I want to be opera singer, I have the voice, I have everything to be, however, I worry a little that in the future I throat cancer develops implementing caused by HPV, and that makes me lose my voice.
Avatar f tn I had a modified neck dissection January 11 after diagnosis of papillary cancer. I had a long surgery (4 1/2 hours, surgeon says loss of blood flow to parathyroids over this length of time can cause permanent damage) and I lost one parathyroid during surgery. Since then, have been hypocalcemic and taking multiple daily doses of calcium and Calcitriol (1500 mg calcium, 3xdaily). Both endo and surgeon say it can take up to a year for normal calcium production to resume.
Avatar n tn Another websight that has an anal cancer survivor/warrior board is at the cancer survivors network. When you go onto thier websight check their boards for the anal cancer board. They have about 15 active posters on there that are going thru and have finished treatment. Good Luck.
Avatar n tn I have been having really bad headaches, dizzy feeling, feeling as I can not swallow, like things get stuck in my throat. I have also had my fingers tingling & some of my fingers even get really stiff. If I take the Xanax, in about 30-45 minutes I fell a little better. The headaches lighten up after I started on the Citalopram over 2 weeks ago. My main thing I am worried about is the throat. I feel like I am always choking no matter what I eat.
Avatar m tn s your risk of getting it in the neck is very small, let us then reverse it and say that there are very many who have it then means of course the risk that get it in the neck or getting cancer of the throat is very small in relation to how common HPV is, we have found that many people who get cancer of the throat has HPV, it's a big difference to come up with how many people have oral sex who gets cancer, as I said, oral cancers linked to oral sex, oral sex, but can hardly be said to be link
Avatar f tn t see Lyme as a truly serious illness may try to cause trouble for MDs who *do* take Lyme very seriously, and the result could be problems for the Lyme docs with the state medical boards. (The medical boards tend to hold to the old belief that Lyme is no big deal.) Over time, the medical profession will work itself out, but for now, please do NOT post names of any MDs here, in order to protect them.

Avatar f tn Your message is difficult to read due to all the abbreviations, like a text message. I don't know what "chvostek/troueauss" is. Your question is whether or not you should take ferrous sulfate to ease your throat? What kind of hypothyroid crisis were you having? Are you on thyroid replacement hormones? If so, what med, what dosage and how long have you been on them? Do you have current lab results you can post, so we can see what your levels are?
Avatar n tn Check out the message boards on these 2 websites for CPAP related questions. The boards here are very active. I think I've read this problem on those boards before. www.cpaptalk.com www.apneasupport.
870040 tn?1252615119 m helping my Mom (58y/o, stage 3C, dx in 2004) with battle against ovarian cancer. its just been so hard lately. I think she is going to be fine. Its just been so much to do and so many complications to troubleshoot. We just finished radiation a week ago, and will start chemo (hopefully) in two weeks. Apparently, there can be a reaction between the radiation and the chemo agent she is suppose to use. She had a second debulking surgery this summer.
Avatar n tn Basically I am a 23 year old girl who has been battling the question for whether or not I have cancer. It all started when i felt a few lymph nodes and i had blood tests everything was normal. I than went for a full body CT scan and it showed 4 enlarged nodes. I biopsied one of the nodes the one that was the largest with the FNA and core needle and flow cytometry and it was all negative. I was so happy. Well i tend to obsess over my health and i noticed on my report it stated a 1.

Avatar f tn Hi there New York...I haven't heard from you or see you around on the regular Hep C message boards in awhile. How are you doing? I'm looking real good for being able to start on another treatment in June. I go to Dr. on Wed. and he's probably going to prescribe Sovaldi, Peg and Riba. I'll hope for the best and see how it goes... basically, that is all anybody can do, right? I haven't talked you since my dad died. He had cancer.
Avatar m tn Oh, and here is a message board for ALS. Maybe it will help you to hear other stories and see if they match yours. http://www.************.com/boards/forumdisplay.php?
Avatar m tn It is found in the mouth/throat of about 7-14% of sexually active adults and causes mouth/throat cancer. The vaccine does not prevent transmission of the virus and it does not treat the virus that is already acquired. It greatly reduces the chance of catching the strains of the virus most likely to cause cancer if given before exposure. HPV is spread through oral sex. It is found in the mouth/throat of about 7-14% of sexually active adults and causes mouth/throat cancer.
Avatar n tn my mother thinks she has throat cancer...i think barretts....since she was little she would always have her stomach acid flow through her throat.....( idon't know if that makes sense, like when she is laying down it flows back into her throat) and so over the years, her throat has suffered from the acid...she also feels pain in her throat...her throat burns everytime she talks and swallows (occasionally). her voice has became rough/scratchy. she also feels a lump in her throat. help me....
331673 tn?1199354285 I was given a choice to either quit smoking and hope that we were early enough to have caught it, and hope that my throat repairs itself, or end up with throat cancer and all that goes with it. I quit smoking. My following check ups have been all good. I am LUCKY, because I didnt wait, I have lost to many friends and family to cancer, (on my husbands side even non smokers). So please dont wait, get to a Doctor. I may not be here today if I didnt Jump to it.
Avatar f tn It helped to calm my fears and he talks about the same article I read which states high strain hpv (not the kind causing warts but the kind causing cervical cancer) is now a big factor in the rise of throat cancer. According to him less than 5% of people with high strain develop throat cancer. I can rest a little better now. Thanks again.
Avatar n tn My husband has/ had throat cancer. He went through kemo and radiation. He is going to tested Fri. to see if treatment worked. He still has very bad breath. Also 2 other spots have shown up too. He also has a large lump on his leg.
