Blood Pressure Medication
Unfortunately I now have to start BP medication and GP can only seem to find capsules. As I have problems with Acacia Powder and Cellulose and these seem to be in all BP medication, GP has not found me ones I can take after seeming to look for the last fortnight. Is there anyone on this forum who

Timings of NDT and iron supplements
Hi all, I'm struggling to maintain ferritin levels whilst also trying to adhere to the timings of iron supplements around my NDT and other vitamins. My ferritin is rarely higher than 20s (in the last ten years the highest it has been was 52 just once). I've been on NDT for a year and am gradually

Hypo Dr lowered dose!
Hi everyone, My Dr. lowered my prescription from 150mcg to 125mcg on the basis of a TSH result of 0.01. Test done as advised on here. No T4 or T3 was done. No discussion about symptoms . In fact it was done without any discussion. I’ve had to wait a month to have an appointment with my Dr. Was not

Grade 3 Fatty Liver - Liver Enzymes keeps on elevating
Last month I was diagnosed with grade 3 fatty liver through an ultrasound. I am 27 & extremely obese ( BMI - 33 ) . Just before that I had a drug reaction which led to short term Hemolytic Anemia and Jaundice . At that time everything on my LFT was elevated . It's been 40 days everything else on my LFT

Post-SRT/ADT PSA Monitoring
The initial substantial decrease in my PSA was attributed pretty much exclusively to the
ADT
, but as the
ADT
dose wears off, would it be reasonable to expect the increase in my PSA before the SRT fully kicks in? Or am I just completely out to lunch and need to be more concerned than I am?

AR-V7 blood test and PET ordered yesterday.
This after 19 months on
ADT
, no symptoms, doing all the diet and exercise protocols. Somewhat disappointing to say the least. The fight continues.

Hoping for Urologist Recommendations/Referrals in the LA/OC CA area.
4 years post Proton Radiation and
ADT
. I’m now having a few urination issues. Current urologist seems stumped. Hoping to find a new urologist in the LA/OC CA area that might have more experience with post radiation issues and treatment. Any names would be appreciated.

In regard to triple therapy, why is there an advantage to hit it hard initially rather than wait to see how
adt
and radiation does by way of psa? wouldn't saving chemo until psa rises make sense also? The idea being saving chemo until maybe
adt
no longer works

POST PROSTATECTOMY RECURRING PSA DIAGNOSED BY PSMA PET #1: ARE PSMA PETS #2+ THEN LIMITED OR DENIED TO CONFIRM CONTINUED PSA RECURRANCE?
Does anyone have experience receiving a total of 2 or more PSMA PETs to confirm PSA recurrance as evidence of the rate of prostate cancer metastisis prior to a second treatment decision to consent to additional treatment options, beyond prostatectomy, namely, hormonal treatment (
ADT
) or chemotherapy

T3 side effects
hi, Please can I have some advice. I’ve been taking 10 mcg T3 for 7 months together with 75 mcg T4. I haven’t felt particularly any better on T3 except for an improvement in tiredness and mood. I’ve felt hyped up and breathless on exertion so I asked for an ECG. I’m 68 and they found that I have a

genetic tests for conversion issues etc
hi lovely forum users I’ve finally got an endo appointment via my doctor no date yet. I doubt they’ll smile on my taking ERFA but I’ve no intention of going back to Levo only as it worked less and less for me over the years. I’ve wondered if I have a T4 to T3 conversion issue and have found a blue horizon

Bisacodyl
Taken Senna, Fybogel and Laxido and haven’t had any bowel movements. I’ve seen people say to take Bisacodyl as this is quite strong. What are people’s experiences with this? Does it work? When is the best time to take it?

Should I start ADT ?
I have not started
ADT
together with pelvic radiation as my Urologist felt that
ADT
won’t have much benefits to me at this moment as my Gleason score is 9. He seems that he wants to monitor my PSA instead. However, my MO suggested me to start
ADT
after radiation.

muscle and ADT issues and questions
It’s all a balance of course as the 20 session of 3Gy and 6 months
ADT
is a newer approach for contained PSMA/PET clear PCa even for high risk.

Advice please - Is this potential dose increase a bad idea?
Just wanted to ask for opinions and wisdom regarding my NDT dose. Never had thyroid treatment before, and just got prescribed 50mg NDT as a trial by my doctor. Being super cautious, I decided to start at 1/4 of that dose (12.5mg) per day, then build up by another 1/4 each week until I hit the prescribed
