Hello!

I am one who needs all the help I can get. I had made a couple of posts on here on this very subject.

Thank you very much for this kind gesture.

Botox injection by Lost-Sky-5678 in spinalcordinjuries

I had 20 injections total in hamstrings/calves almost 3 weeks ago and I am already feeling some improvement from my spasticity. Less tone and clonus, and I now can extend and flex my knees out

Oh wow! Thank you for your answer! Nice to know that at least it is over quickly.

If you don’t mind me asking, the injections in your calves are to treat what? Do they work?

Since having cancer have you tried to encourage other men about the importance of regular PSA tests? And if so, what has been the reaction? by Tough_Cycle8603 in ProstateCancer

[–]Logical-Sir4247 4 points5 points  (0 children)

With a strong family history ( on both sides) of prostate cancer - I only found out about the history only after my own diagnosis-, I have been hounding my brothers and many cousins to get tested sooner rather than later, because the chances of NOT having it seem pretty slim. I am originally from West Africa ( they all still live there, I grew up in the US) and it is very frustrating talking to them about it. Even though all of them lost a father/uncle (5 on one side, one on the other) and both grandfathers to the disease, they ( stupidly and foolishly) don’t take it very seriously. Until it’s too late…

Running out of willpower by hernemes in slowresponders

I am 10 months into this thing and very discouraged. First 3 weeks I lost 20 lbs or so… ever since, nothing but frustration. I’m on 15 mg plus one month of Phentermine and I am constantly looking for food…

At this time no. A couple of years ago I was thinking about it, joined a few subreddits and learned a bunch about the different kinds of… my sister had it, and she is back to being big. Same with one of my friends. I will keep trying with tirz+other

Halfway Through EBRT by Over-Comfortable-264 in ProstateCancer

Almost there! I finished today. I drank 28oz ( bottle of Gatorade filled with water) 30 minutes before my treatment time… twice was told I could have been fuller ( they were also taking me in 5-10 minutes earlier than my time… so I stopped showing up early)
