Liver enzymes
Hi, I had mildly elevated ALT in January so stopped drinking alcohol. It lowered but then went up to 100 with raised AST also. Gradually both went down to normal and Nils blood test and ultrasound were normal. However, ALT has gone back up to 72 and ALT 64. My GP is stumped. Has anyone experienced

Seafood shows promise as a future Parkinson's disease medication

Finally passed a kt/v test
Ok, so after 11 months, I finally passed my kt/v test with a score of 1.82, which my nurse said is passing for PD patients. Initially I was on 8 hours, 4 exchanges of 1800ml per night. When I failed the first test, then they moved me to 2000ml per exchange, then 10 hours of 5 exchanges of 2000ml, then

Can Nubeqa (Darolutamide) be used instead of normal ADT drugs for localized PCa?
Hi all. Australia has just given the green light to lower the cost of this so-called wonder drug from a staggering $40K (AUD) to a low $30. It seems that this drug has fewer side effects than the usual ADT drugs and from what I can gather does a pretty good job of preventing the growth and spread

Hypothesis XIIII
Pretty much all
autoimmune
diseases
do not lead themselves to simple testing leading to better treatment. The promise of individualized treatment would accept the 1mg EOD concept. It is also possible that a lower concentration would be more effective.

Confused about how all the different PCa drugs work?
This recent article (Oct 2023) has a nice high level diagram that organizes the more common prostate cancer drugs and their mechanism of action. Scroll down to Figure 1.

Crohn’s with a negative test

He has for many years suffered with symptoms and been tested for everything under the sun! Twice consultants has felt fistulas

Is this website BULLSH*T?
This is PDWarrior1900 I can't seem to login to my normal HealthUnlocked account from my downstairs computer. I subscribe to DOZENS of PD newsletters, clinical trials, etc. This was just emailed to me and I haven't check it out yet. -----------------------------------------------------------------

PSA increase.
My PSA has increased from .13 to .73 in 3 1/2 months. Does this mean I am castrate resistant. Or does it need to increase over a couple more samples first. Can my PSA change this much for other reasons. I am currently on Lupron. Thanks for any input.
