5-htp for adrenal insufficiency?
I've just read a bunch of articles about 5-htp (an amino acid precursor to serotonin) stimulating the HPA axis and increasing cortisol levels. Has anyone tried this when tapering through the lower doses of pred?

fatigue
I was just changed from monthly blood tests to 6 months and 6 month check ups....the doc said I was stable and there was a good chance i would never need treatment. I am 76 and maybe he thought I would naturally not live that long. Anyway, my concern is this ongoing fatigue that smacks me in the face

Has anyone with Hashimoto or any other autoimmune condition tried low dose naltrexone ( NDL) to regulate autoimmune response?
I have multiple autoimmune diseases, such as Hashimoto, autoimmune gastritis and Reynolds. The list is growing. I am already on clean diet and manage my stress as much as I can and need to try something more than that. I have read the LDN research and keen to try. I understand it isn't a panacea

PSA At Very Low Levels But Starting to Rise
My PSA started to rise from undetectable up to about .36 in July 2021 after 9 years of treatment. My MO reviewed a PSMA and decided to have my largest tumor radiated.

switching to a carnivore diet has put my PMR into total remission
I know the subject may be viewed as sensational or just plain wrong, but that is what I have concluded. At the time I was diagnosed with PMR, I already had diagnoses of psoriatic arthritis and fibromyalgia. My PMR started in 2019, about 8 months prior to covid. I was put on prednisone and experienced
