I had my bloodwork done as part of my annual checkup with my PCP. The results came back, and my Thyroid (TSH) is (High) at 6.360. So, my PCP prescribed a med to try and control it.
Has anyone had a similar circumstance.? New Med is Levothyroxine.
I checked and saw no conflict with the Lupron I'm taking.
I had hypothyroidism prior to going on ADT so it was no surprise that it got worse while on it. My Dr just upped my dosage. Otherwise, no problems I could detect. It might actually help with weight gain and fatigue because hypothyroidism causes both.
Yes, I take that. I started it before ADT. Dose upped slightly after three years (about a year ago).
I also take Liothyronine.
Yes, shortly after I started ADT my TSH went up and up and up so we added the same med you're taking (brand name Cytomel) and kept increasing the Synthroid dose until things stabilized. I was told that Erleada is "notorious" for doing this albeit no damage to the thyroid resulted.
There’s no conflict with lupron that I’m aware of in the literature, nor as my own N= 1 anecdote - I’ve been taking it for many years. In recent years, I’ve actually reduced my dose slightly, which, I’m not sure, but this could have even been after starting ADT + zytiga. Regardless, for sure since starting PC treatment, I’ve not needed to increase.
Three month wait to see a Med Onc, only prescribed single therapy. (Canada)
