To Thyroidectomy or Not to Thyroidectomy
Hi there! Hoping for some guidance, advice and possibly real life results from some members. I was diagnosed with Graves' Disease this time last year. I had every possible symptom you can imagine. I started on Methimazole almost immediately. My numbers have gotten better but are still not controlled.

Parkinson's disease breakthrough
The following article claims that the majority of "Parkinson's Disease" is started by just a simple bacteria called Desulfovibrio, and the rest about 10 percent is caused by individual genes. Parkinson's disease could be prevented in the future after scientists discovered that a certain strain of bacteria

Update On Eclipse Trial-another failure. Has LU-177 worked for anyone?
In 2010 at the age of 59, I had Da Vinci surgery with a Gleason 4+5=9 and PSA of 9. Post surgical biopsy showed all margins clear with no seminal vesicle involvement and Gleason post-op score was changed to a 4+3=7. Subsequent PSA was non-detectable as tested every three months for the first two years

Recent PSA test result no longer “undetectable.” What’s next?
After 5+ years of measuring “undetectable” with my PSA results I recently measured 0.24 NG/ML which I’m assuming my PCA is becoming active again. I see my oncologist on Monday, 8 Jan for a follow-up appt. Can anyone share with me what the likely next course of action will be?

New Way to Get More Iron
I have been diagnosed with several
autoimmune
diseases
in the past years, and because of celiac, and microscopic colitis, my nutritional needs have not been met for quite a while. Specifically I was not getting enough iron. I tried all of the varieties, and read about the absorption rates .

Carnosine as potential initial PCa treatment
Researchers have discovered that a naturally-occurring molecule could potentially be an effective first line of treatment against prostate cancer. Nottingham Trent University (NTU) scientists investigated the anti-cancer properties of carnosine, which can be produced in the body and is also found

Gluten free and vegetarian- struggling for choices
Hi, I am diagnosed with coeliac disease and I am also vegetarian. I am struggling for choices, and feel my diet is very bland and I tend to repeat meals several times a week. Particularly eating out, or free-from sections in supermarkets are difficult. They seem to cater for both, but not the two combined

PSA Bounce
Hello and happy New year distinguished gentlemen. I was wondering if I may please get your input on my latest PSA which bounced from 1.2 to 1.6. Why did this happen and is this something I should be concerned about? Thanks so much. Regards.

RA now linked to oral bacterial health.
Apparently gum disease, bacteria can enter the bloodstream and or create 'citrullinated proteins', that go to joints and initiate an auto immune reaction. The body immune system sees these protein things, and attacks the joint tissue. I was wondering if PMR may also be an infection related causation

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.

Monitor my health test results
I would apreciate it if somebody would give me some help with my test results from the above company. I asked for the full Thyroid tests. This was their advice:- Your results suggest you have a form of underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism) TSH level 3.88 TSH levels normal normal range

Help in interpreting results
I want to first thank everyone who posts and replies on here. This has been a mine of information for me and I greatly appreciate the time and effort from all. I have recently had full blood test through Blue Horizon and would be grateful for help in interpreting them. I currently take 125mcg levothyroxine

GCA - kidney problem
Hi All warriors. Diagnosed with GCA July, 2023. Put on 60 mg now tapered down to l7mg (Dec. 2023). All symptoms under control at this time. My last blood work showed my Creatinine at 104 and GFR at 45. This showed a mild to moderate decrease in kidney function. As a result I had a kidney/bladder

Some good news
I was told on the fifth of December that my ultrasound scan had picked up three small suspicious lesions, and that what they saw was suggestive of cirrhosis, portal vein hypertension and varices. I immediately quit alcohol, eating cannabis and otc sleeping remedies. I radically changed my diet and began
