You are not alone. Many people with ALS experience pooling of saliva in their mouths that can make people more likely to drool, choke or cough. It may seem as though your body is producing too much saliva, but it is not. Normally, our bodies produce large quantities of saliva each day to help maintain a healthy mouth and good digestion. For reasons that are not clearly understood, you may not be swallowing your saliva as automatically (without thinking) as you did prior to ALS.

We want to test the blood and saliva samples for chemicals like phthalates, hormones, perfluorinated chemicals, metals, pesticides, and possibly other toxins. The importance of having a data bank of these samples is that with emerging technology and advances in science, we may be able to do more tests in the future than we can do now. Having these samples creates the possibility of study in many different areas of breast cancer research.

Reliance on averages or guessing isn't good enough for women serious about achieving (or avoiding) pregnancy. Because your body is unique, you cannot rely on "usual" or "average" predictions.

Any computer program which deals with dates is susceptible to this problem. Thus, if you use dates in any of your applications at home or work, you should make sure the applications you are using or the programs you are writing are compliant with 8 digit dates or have some other mechanism built in to deal with the year 2000.

In the pivotal clinical trial for NSCLC, Grade 3/4 rash occurred in 9% of Tarceva-treated patients. Six percent of patients needed dose reduction and 1% of patients discontinued treatment due to rash. For patients with intolerable rash, the PI recommends that you reduce the dose in 50 mg decrements. Tarceva is available in three tablet strengths: 150 mg, 100 mg and 25 mg.

In the BR.21 NSCLC clinical trial, Grade 3/4 diarrhea occurred in 6% of patients. One percent of patients needed dose reduction and 1% of patients discontinued treatment due to diarrhea. Diarrhea can usually be managed with loperamide. Patients with severe diarrhea who are unresponsive to loperamide or who become dehydrated may require dose reduction or temporary interruption of therapy. For patients with severe diarrhea who become dehydrated, consider treatment with oral rehydration therapy.
