I'm trying to figure out if there's any connection between Primosa 1000 which my oncologist prescribed for a fibrous lump in my breast, and the severe hairfall I've been experiencing. I've been taking it for about three months now, and the hairfall started around two months ago. Is this normal, or should I be worried?

I'm really worried about my 70-year-old mom. She's been on levatin ib tablets for her thyroid cancer treatment and recently we've noticed this white mucous discharge. It's been going on for about two weeks now, but there's no foul odor. She just had a PET scan two days ago and it didn't show anything unusual. She's also bedridden and uses diapers. Could this discharge indicate an infection or something more serious? Wouldn't the PET scan have picked up on anything serious if there was something wrong?

Is it normal to be able to feel the lymph nodes in my chest during a check-up? Are chest lymph nodes usually noticeable by touch? I'm just trying to understand what's typical.
