Hi folks! I'm just finishing up my Cipro and had a surprise diarrhea attack this morning. Also, trouble sleeping. No mucus is coming up, which worries me. The sneaky low temps are fewer. I'm still waiting for a report from my Infectious Diseases doctor; I'll nudge him when I am done with the Cipro. My guess is that my MAC is dormant and I have other more common bacteria which is causing the trouble. I'm feeling very fortunate. By the way, asthma was always the go-to diagnosis when the doc couldn't think of anything else. Then COPD. That was before the discovery of the MAC and M. lentiflavum. Bronchiectasis was the first diagnosis and is the underlying condition of my lungs. We're having a surprise humid hot summer here in the Bay Area. But the fog is due to arrive any day now. blessings, Robyn

Yes. If your cancer is hormone receptive, this will block the enabling hormones. It doesn't work for everyone; it didn't work for my current husband's late wife. As far as I know, they are still using it, just not as long as I took it. Robyn
