Cannot get my TSH in range - help needed please, should I switch to levo?
Hello, I’ve been taking Thyroid-S NDT for 6+years and I’ve been trying to get my TSH to be close to range but cannot seem to get anywhere. I’ve tracked my ranges from 2022 and I’m still no closer. I’m nervous as when medichecks send my results they always say there’s higher risk of heart issues and osteoporosis

Thoughts on Expired NDT?
Hi I have found a stash of expired NDT, and some expired Cytomel, and some expired NutriAdrenal supplements. Plus other supplements. They all stem from this struggle which started years ago. What do we think about expired NDT? How long after the expiry date would you still use it for? The same

General questions about starting NDT
Hello lovely people, I'm back again with more questions... Just waiting on my NDT prescription to be filled by the pharmacy. It will be CAPSULES with powder inside (not tablets). It's 50mg, once a day. I've never had any thyroid treatment previously, so this is my first time trying any thyroid hormones

PSA Rising While on ADT and Abiraterone
I started Abiraterone in November 2022 and my PSA was 3.83. Over the last few months it dropped to 2.71, 2.50 and then 3.02 and now 3.28. Does this mean I am not responding to the Abiraterone any longer. I have only been on it for 3.5 months. Am I doing something that is interfering with the drug.

Is it normal after receiving two firmagon shots in the abdomen for the injection areas to be hard?
I qualified for a cutting edge trial at Yale, unfortunately they won’t let me do it until I’m back on a SOC
ADT
drug for two months. I bit the bullet because I’m allowed to stay on the estrogen gel to control the hot flashes. I had my first firmagon shots Tuesday. Two needles in the abdomen.
