Anyone on or know of anyone on peptide therapy?
My doctor suggested I go on peptide therapy. Generally speaking these are amino acids that need to be self injected much like an insulin shot over a prescribed schedule of roughly 20-30 days. He heard about this at a conference where discussed with regards to PD. FYI, I was diagnosed 15 months ago,

Vagus Nerve Stimulation for PD
We have posted about the Vagus Nerve and PD before. Here is one article on it: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1935861X20301960 So I was going through my Facebook groups to see what I can cut, and noticed my Vagus Nerve group. It made me put up or shut up and ask the simple question

Prednisolone/Vitamin D3 timing
I’ve been suffering symptoms of PMR since June 2020 and started treatment in October 2020. Started on 15mg Pred and now down to 11mg - reducing by 1mg every 6 weeks. So far so good! Following original advice from GP I take all medication at 8am with breakfast - this includes Pred, Vitamin D3, Omeprazole

DEXA Scan Results
Hi I had a Spine T-score of -3.7 on the DEXA scale and have been taking Alendronic Acid on and off for a couple of years, but it causes stomach problems which seem to stop when I'm not taking it. I'm thinking of stopping again but am worried my bone density will get worse if I do, does anyone else have

Thyroid results on combo T4/T3 (please, help)
Hi! I've been officially Hashi hypothyroid for a couple of years. Started my medication journey with levothyroxine (Euthyrox, Letrox), but every new dose would be helpful for just a couple of months, and then a dose increase would go. Last year I started with Prothyrid (Sanofi), a combo T4:T3=100:10

A Few More Weeks
I’m struggling with the side effects of Alendronic Acid, the hardest to cope with is the tiredness it’s overwhelming. I take my tablet on a Wednesday ( I’ve just taken my 4th) and I just sleep. I spoke to my GP the previous two weeks, shortness of breath - given steroids and then stomach pain. Today

Proteolytic Enzymes... Has anyone had any success with them?
I already take Curcumin and Vit K2 on top of ADCAL supplements and wondered if anyone has used Proteolytic Enzymes. Are they worth the money? I am currently on 7.5mg Steriods and taking Alendronic acid too.

Androgen Receptor [AR] Axis Therapies
Some thoughts on AR-axis therapy (androgen deprivation & AR antagonists) after reading a new assessment of the benefit of second-line drugs [1]. In a sense, I view myself fortunate to have been diagnosed in 2004. When surgery [RP] was not successful (nor salvage radiation) it was suggested that I begin

Jaw discomfort
Can anyone advise? Onset of PMR was September 2016 and I began prednisolone in January 2017 after a long delay in diagnosis being confirmed. DEXA in August 2020 confirmed osteopenia and I began Alendronic Acid in October. Just in the last couple of weeks or so, I've started to feel a discomfort in

Re: "A Possible Solution For ... Peripheral Neuropathy ..."
By the time I got around to responding to Nalakrat's post, he had over 3 dozen repiles & who know how many who read but did not respond. On the basis that those people would not get to read a late post, I started this one. I have some interest in this going back to 2016 when my wife was on Velcade,

Zoledronic acid and dental treatment
Good morning all. It's been a while since I have been active on the forum but read it regularly and I am aware that there has been discussion about bisphosphonates and dental treatment. My PMR started 6 years ago and I have been on pred for almost as long. My GP prescribed AA but I was unable to take

Abdominal pain from shots?
I have had constant upper abdominal pain for two weeks. I had been titrating my sc injections because of side effects. I use hydroxy. When I did a 500 mcg. dose the abdominal pain started that day. I waited ten days to do my next shot and only too 250 mcg. My abdominal pain is the same. Nothing else

Not sure what to think!
Well I had my first face 2 face oncology appt today, since diagnosis 18 months ago. I saw a member of the team who needed to refer to the consultant. I'm actually feeling very well, even better having had my two weeks in Scotland. And I really haven't had any nasty side effects from ibrance and letrozole

Alendronic acid or not?
Fifteen months ago when I started Pred, my GP insisted I took Alendronic acid to avoid osteoporosis. I asked for a Dexa scan first, which he refused, so I did not take Alend. acid . Today he has again put pressure on me to accept this medication. When I mentioned Dexa scan again he agreed this time
