ct/mri vs PSMA SCAN
i’ve already had a prostatectomy and subsequent radiation and a
ADT
treatment. PSA has now started to rise again after a year off of
ADT
and is at approximately 1.5 Psa. after 12 months of active surveillance. A PSMA scan was done when it was at .8 and found nothing.

Hiding head injury
Four and a half years ago I had a concussion and I am still experiencing periods in which I have balance and coordination problems, fatigue, can't concentrate and am easily feeling overwhelmed. Since then I have picked up freelance work again, working outdoors and in educational contexts part-time.

T4 over range yet again due to side effect of Amiodarone. I have no thyroid, am on 25mcg levo daily now. In a dilemma
Hi all I am aware that most people on this site will have little knowledge about the drug Amiodarone so here is a brief account of what it is used for and it's potential side effects that can alter conversion of thyroid medication such as levo or NDT so pushing levels either up or down. It can also effect

Results on new test
I have just had the new test offered by Monitor My Health which I think is good value for money. My thyroid tests were good. I am on 2.5 grain of NDT so my TSH is suppressed. TSH .01 (.27 - 4.2) T4 20.3 (12 - 22) T3 5.9 (2.1 - 6.8) I'm not sure whether I need to be higher in some of

Vitamin and mineral deficiencies/Thyroid dysfunction.. Chicken or Egg?
Before I spend my hard earned money on going to a private ENDO because the NHS is failing me I wanted to ask what you all thought about the problem of iron deficiency and vitamin D deficiency and how this relates to underactive thyroid . I read a lot here about how these vitamins should be optimal for

Recommended for Radiation at 0.01
Urologist said it's time to start talking about radiation and possibly
ADT
so I'm off today to see a radiation oncologist for his thoughts. From what I've been watching on here, it seems the thought process is to wait until .1 before considering further treatments.

The good doctor
I had a GP appointment this morning (double appointment) for a Medication Review. I haven’t had one since pre-Covid when I lived in a different part of the country. I crept into the surgery with fear in my heart as I prepared to explain the ins and outs of NDT. OH came with me as I was in the middle

Can't find proper thyroid medication
Hi all, I've tried almost all thyroid medications under the sun, NDT, T4 only (tirosint, synthroid, euthyrox), T4 + T3, T3 only, NDT + T4. And no matter what I still have lingering symptoms despite all my levels being optimal ( TSH, free T4 and free T3). My vitamins are all optimal as well (vtiamin

Amiriodone & NDT update
So I was put on Amiodarone post heart surgery 3 1/2 weeks ago. I thought it was a three week course but it's not. Now on 200mg per day for the next few months . And yes I think it's messing my thyroid hormones up. I did protest over taking it...due to its high iodine content and contrary indications.

Lookin for next phase of my PC fight
Because of my age, my Oncologist wants to wait as long as possible before starting me on
ADT
. I'm meeting with him in 3 days and wondering if he will change his mind about starting
ADT
. Your opinions are appreciated.

Does PSA settle after treatment?
But now the goal is to maintain a really low PSA ( undetectable or less than 1) How will I ever know if it will naturally stabilise if I keep on
ADT
? Thoughts? DD 😎.

I have Hashimoto thyroiditis and I have CFS/ME I am sure that I have bowel problems and bladder problems and immune problems. I can't work out what is what as the body is malfunctioning. It's not getting better levothyroxine 75mg per day and multivitamin setraline for depression but it supposed to help
