I’m trying to find any information about Hedge apple use for treating cancer patients. So far it's really hard to decide whether to try this or not mainly because most information I found were more focused on discussing if you can eat the plant or not, then on the issue of it being used for treating cancer. Basically it seems like it wouldn't do any harm to try this, but I don't know how long or even how should Hedge apple be used for cancer treatment. Some people say they just eat it, but also, I didn't see any rel info on how effective this plant be in either preventing remissions (which I hope), or cancer.
Please, if anyone has any info on Hedge apple use for cancer treatment, especially breast cancer treatment, share.

Back in October 2014, I experienced angina and went to the ER. Assessment indicated that I had blockages in some cardiac arteries, and a double bypass was performed. I was started on a med regimen of Metoprolol 25 mg/day, Lipitor 40 mg/day, and Aspirin 81 mg/day. As I recovered from the surgery, I discovered that I now had erectile dysfunction, a numb feeling in my penis, and reduced libido. When I told my cardiologist about this, he switched my BP med to Bystolic 2.5 mg/day. Supposedly, Bystolic doesn't have sexual side-effects. Though I can now get a partial erection and can have an orgasm, it takes a fair amount of stimulation and the orgasm is not as satisfying as it was prior to starting on medication. I'm 62, have no other health conditions or medications, was never on BP or cholesterol meds prior to my operation, and never before had any problems with erectile dysfunction. On both Metoprolol and Bystolic my BP reduced to an average level of about 115/75. My cardiologist proposed a trial of Viagra, but I declined as I do not believe in treating a side effect with another med that has potential for additional side-effects. Nonetheless, this condition is unacceptable to me, and I would want to get off a medication with this side effect. Has anyone else experienced similar side effects on Bystolic? Might the ED be the result of the Lipitor reducing cholesterol which, in turn, disrupted normal testosterone synthesis?

I'm 16 and for the last few months I felt a lump on the outer side of my left testicle. Its not like it hurts or swollen like what I hear to look for in article and videos I seen. But the lump concerns me and I feel pain on my caves that feel like its being pulled. The lump might be nothing it could be a bug bite that I'm thinking to hard into.

I am writing this as my girlfriend and I are concerned about an abortion she had a little over 4 weeks ago. I would appreciate respectful comments and suggestions please.
When she had the abortion she was only 8 weeks pregnant, after 3 weeks we went back for a follow up appointment where they had her do a urine test. The lady came back to tell her she was fine.
The thing that is concerning us now is that her breasts seem to be growing as well as sensitive. She has not felt nausea as bad as before, but last night was pretty bad.. So there are still very obvious signs of pregnancy. Doing an at home test a few days ago, the test came back with the faintest line. Could it be possible that she is still pregnant?
If the abortion failed, she would be 12 weeks. Do pregnancy tests come back negative further along in the abortion? Is it possible that she may still be pregnant, or are her hormones still balancing out?
Should we go and get an ultrasound done just to make sure?

I asked my doc for trazodone today for my insomnia, he gave me a script for ten zopiclone instead, he said trazodone was not a good drug for depression, and that lexapro ( he has me on 30 mg ) is a far superior drug, I pointed out to him that I have been on 30 mg for over a year and while my depression is very manageable, my insomnia and anxiety have not improved and that in my opinion anxiety has always been my primary issue. I take inderal 80 mg daily for anxiety , which just makes it bearable. Has anyone on any different combination of drugs for anxiety insomnia and depression that they find works. Yes I know we're all different ! I have been on sooo many antidepressants, and I can't honestly recommend any of them.
