Question 1

primary adenocarcinoma bladder (removed), metastasized lymph nodes, bone = spine, rib, pelvis, skull. chemo stopped on list for nivo-ipi. how long die?

Accepted Answer

Not up to drs: Best doctors can do is guess based on experience, however everyone is different.  It's not up to us to tell anymore.  My prayers go out to you.

Question 2

what to do if i have a slanted spine and uneven pelvic bones?

Accepted Answer

Depends on degrees: of tilt or slant of the spine and whether the scoliosis is due to congenital issues, trauma, or simple muscle imbalance. The uneven pelvic bones are often from a leg length discrepancy and this can cause some functional scoliosis. I would recommend having legs checked for height to see if a simple shoe lift on one side could help.

Question 3

i am suffering from open book pelvic fracture with 2 mm displacement between the pelvic bones. how long would it take for recovery.

Accepted Answer

2-3 months: It generally takes 2-3 months to recover. Of course the first 2 weeks are the worst then it slowly starts to improve and gets better. Good luck.

Question 4

i have low abdomen swelling both sides just level with pelvic bones, bulges at times whether i have a bm or not. i have possible slow transit bowel.

Swelling: You need to see a physician for an exam and differential diagnosis as  the history in itself is not enough. Sorry . Good  Luck

Some metastasis respond to removal or control of primary thyroid and renal come to mind.

Question 6

5 months preg. joint pain in right leg/pelvic area..is this because my pelvic bones are widening? feels disconnected. but my leg is fully functional..

Accepted Answer

Joint still "hopping: Yes the connection between the femur's knob (acetabulum) and your pelvic joint is "loosening" due to the pregnancy. The leg still works because the joint still allows movement without impairment.

Question 7

It : It is obviousely bothering you and having your doctor examine you is not a bad idea.

Question 8

i have pain in my pelvic bones and the muscles in my legs are sore making ithard to walk i have taken advil and tylenol (acetaminophen) that helps a little

Accepted Answer

This : This question is posted under the OB section; if you are pregnant with those symptoms then you need to call your doctor and be seen immediately.  If you are not pregnant, then tylenol (acetaminophen) and advil are fine to try.  Try to think back if there is any reason you could be sore such as heavy lifting.    If you developed worse pain, spinal pain, any numbness or weakness,  changes in bowel or bladder control, or any abdominal pain then please be seen immediately.

Question 9

Tumor cells: It can be . Don't ignore this . See you urologist.

Question 10

my mother was recently diagnosed with metastasized cancer to the bone and inna lot of pain. she's already taking morphine 10mg but it doesn't relieve ?

Accepted Answer

NSAID's Sometimes: Nsaids sometimes help much more than opioids. The "stronger" ones like Indocin (indomethacin) sometimes a little better. In severe cases, radiation to the bone can relieve severe pain. In the worst cases, dissociative drugs lilke ketamine are amazing at tiny doses. Find someone experienced in their use to avoid a lot of problems.
