My aunt has just been diagnosed with breast cancer. can you kindly explain what this measurements are on the biopsy report? 5s/2c and further stated 1.3 x 1.1.
She is planning on using another method of treatment at a wellness clinic called Utopia in Florida, which treatment involves natural remedies and vitamins minerals etc, for a period of 8 weeks. If it is not successful, will her cancer spread during that time? How fast does cancer spread?
Last week I injured my left ankle from a heavy wood pallet fell off a stack of pallets and hit me on my left ankle. After the blow my ankle became very swollen and bruised. After the injury I was taken to the ER where the Dr did an X-ray of my ankle and said my ankle had a very bad Sprain. Well 9 days later my ankle is still bruised and swollen but my main concern is I am on crutches and everytime I use my crutches my injured ankle and foot becomes very red and purple and my foot begins to throb. My question i guess is is this normal for my ankle and foot to turn colors like this and does this sound like a broken ankle or a sprained ankle?
I am 66 years old, white, female and until this past summer of 2016, had rarely seen a doctor in 10 years. When I had MRI and X-rays of my back during the summer, I was told I have osteoarthritis of my back; primarily Lumbar 4 and 5 – degenerative disk disease – it was verified that it is not rheumatoid arthritis by blood work. Nothing was said about any disorder of the hips. Lately, if I sit too long as in even for 15 minutes or if I stand too long (while waiting on corner for light to change) – my hips literally lock and I can not get up out of the chair and if I am standing too long, my legs try to lock – it is like I HAVE to keep moving or lay down for any comfort. I am five 5 8 and I have gained 22 pounds since all this started. I can still walk fine even though I am not sure what is good for me to do or not do. From what I have read, I think it is bursitis as it is in the exact location in each hip – would an X-ray or MRI show this?
I am 46 years male. I have been experiencing unsteadiness and imbalance for about 2 years now. This is the main symptom. I also have severe sleep apnea. My right hand has a reduced swing while walking. I have a postural tremor, but it has been there for many years. My speech sometimes chokes up suddenly while talking, and i have to clear my throat to continue. I also feel light headed once in a way, this is diff from the unsteadiness and is independent of posture etc.
My doctors suspects it is early Parkinson’s.
A spine MRI showed cervical compression in c6-c7, c5-c6 with myelopathic changes last year. This year I repeated MRI, but now it says myelomalacic changes in c6 c7. A spine surgeon advised me surgery.
Can my symptoms be due to only spine issues or Parkinson’s or both? What are myelomalacic changes? What will it lead to if I do not have surgery? I don’t have any significant pain symptoms. But hand is slightly weaker (weaker grip). Doctor says 4 out of 5 (strength).
My mother who is 67 years old has had a surgery to remove a tumor which was called desmoid tumor. Resection margin are free. No other remarkable changes could be detected according to the pathology report.
Most likely there is no families fap.
Please I want to know how dangerous it is on health and life considering its size, place and my mother’s age. And the chance of having fap considering her age and the place of the tumor (abdominal wall)

I am a 25 year old female. About 6 months ago I was told I had pcosd. About 8 months ago I had my gallbladder removed and that’s the only surgery I’ve had. For the the past year every month I’ve been taking a ovulation pill to help me get pregnant. Other than that,that’s the only medicine I take daily. So Wednesday I woke up with this crazy pain in my right lower abdomen. I went to work and worked all day and the pain wasn’t seeming to get any better! I went to my doctor who believed it was my appendix and sent me to the er to have a ct scan,it came back fine. Said I had an ovarian cyst and to follow up with my obgyn. I did that the next day and she seemed to believe it wasn’t a obgyn problem and said it was a stomach issue. So she sent me to a stomach doctor who also believed it was my appendix considering I’m having all the signs and symptoms. My white blood count is high and my urine came back fine. So she sent me for another ct scan,this time they contrasted me! Anyway that scan came back fine. I went the next day for a follow up appointment with the stomach doctor and she said she doesn’t know what’s going on, she said she would rule it as something else but she said it isn’t explaining my my white blood count is high. So she wanted to put me on a antibiotic over the weekend and if it isn’t better by Monday she is gonna do surgery. I read on line that the appendix will rupture after three days and today is day 4 . The pain is still there and I’m still running a low grade fever but I feel no different than I did three days ago. So my question is, should I go through with the surgery? I don’t like the fact I’m gonna be operated on and not know what the problem is. Please give me some feed back to help me understand!

Q: Hi my name is (…) i am 21, I had a horseback riding accident last week, and fell on my back, i do not remember how or where exactly i fell. The pain is located in the lower back. It was not bad at first but has grown stronger over the past few days, I have tried resting it but that has not helped either. Now the pain has been spreading down the back of my right thigh. It has been hurting when I stand, bend over, drive the car, carry my school bag, and anytime i lift my legs, or sneeze, I have trouble getting out of bed and walking . I would like to avoid getting xrays if possible since I had a similar accident 4 moths ago and sprained my lower back (or at least thats whats written on the doctors report) the pain then was much different from now. Can you please help me.
Thank you.

I had a gallbladder removed Jan 12. Sent home. Keep getting sicker. Ended back in Hosp. Still here. Have a small tear leaking. They been giving me tons of antibiotics. They were gonna send me to a diff Hosp to fix it. But now cause my blood works better want to send me home. Can the bile leak heal on its own. My feeling is all the antibiotics have my blood levels good. I want the leak fixed. I’m sick and in pain. But can that leak heal itself
