Need help to fight fatigue from Radium 223
Stage 4 for last 3 years. Had 6 cycles of Chemo and then Abiraterone for 18+ months until it stopped being effective. Currently part of trial with Radium 223. Had 4 cycles already and 2 more to go. After this will likely have to switch to Enzalutamide and ADT. Now having bad fatigue issues; on scale

Restless Legs Syndrome
I have suffered from Restless Legs Syndrome for many years. I recently had a major operation to remove an extremely large polyp from my bowel. My bowel has been reduced by app. 25%. My previous doctor prescribed Pregabalin 125 mg. He said that he would not prescribe a higher dose because of the dangers

Daytime RLS
Does anyone have any advice on dealing with RLS during the day? I take 300mg of Pregabalin at night, which helps at night (normally). Recently, the RLS is coming back very badly around lunchtime, and lasts all afternoon, every day, without respite. As you can imagine, it is affecting me pretty badly

Upper airway obstruction on spirometry?
So I have had a history of rhinitis/polyps for the past 14 years, it is treated with daily nasal steroids/(drops if bad) and an antihistamine- though all allergy tests have been negative. About 2 months ago (after a period of anxiety it so happens) I had been using the steroid drops and started to

Valium RLS
Is anyone using Valium/diazepam or any other benzo to treat RLS? The Horizant that I’ve been using for the last year and a half isn’t working as well as it used to.

Abdominal MRI
good morning. I’m curious for those who have had an MRI, did you have to take something for anxiety? My hep has suggested Valium but I prefer not to be loop legged.

So many questions ??
I am 71 years old, weigh 8 stone, generally fit and healthy. I have probably had RLS for many years causing the occasional sleepless night or restless evening in the chair. I had my first prolonged nighttime episode last November which lasted a few nights. Nothing since except tingling in my left leg

Does anyone use ‘Active Iron’ in UK?
I searched for ferrous bisglycinate on Amazon UK which came up with Active Iron 25mg. I’ve now received it and found it contains ferrous sulfate 25mg! Now I don’t know if this is the right product or dose. Can anyone help?

Iron supplements dosage
Is 20mg of gentle iron each night enough? It worked well the first night. What a wonderful relief it was. The second night it did work within 70 mins but returned within 3 hours.. I wonder why it didn't last as long? Would a slow release be better, like ferrous sulphate 325mg? Or will it need to be

Ferrous Sulphate 325mg modified release
Hi, is there anyone else in the UK using modified (sustained/slow) release ferrous sulphate 325mg or have you been able to obtain the normal, immediate release ferrous sulphate in this dose? My GP is telling me it is only available as modified release (or this may be the only one on their prescribing

Radium 223 Xofigo Treatment
I have considerable pain in my hips and tale bone 3 days after first injection of Xofigo. The Radiologists mentioned I could get pain flare a few days after the injection. Is there anyone familiar with Radium 223 side effects.

Diagnosis- ish
Hi everyone, Hope you are well. I have seen a gastroenterologist for issues with swallowing. He has diagnosed the following: intermittent dysphagia. Slight incordination of motility via barium swallow. I also had a high resolution manometry. They said reassuring noromotensive lower oesopageal sphincter

Buprenorphine
I am currently taking 300 mg Pregabalin around 7pm and 2x 30 g of codeine (sometimes 3x 30g) during the night. I am also taking ferrous sulphate at 10pm each night. This isn’t working. I take the first codeine half an hour before bedtime and maybe sleep for 1 to 2hours. I then have to walk around/have

Stopping Firmagon if castration resistant
The cocktail of painkillers plus Radium 223 is making me very tired at the moment. This may seem like a daft question but what is the position with continuing or stopping Firmagon when you're castration resistant? Is its purpose to control the spread of testosterone that would otherwise make the cancer

Results are in (Update 2/17/23)
So recurrent after radiation and 2 years ADT. PSA pretty close to 3 by now. Bone and CT scan done because my cheap insurance company denied the Pylarify until after the other 2. I don't mind the extra contrasts, barium or whatever hell else they gave me. I keep asking is it nuclear. Only the bone scan

Iron tablets and T3 timing?
I'm trying to raise my low ferritin (33 at last test) and am taking ferrous sulphate twice a day (will be testing my levels again soon).I was previously taking my T3 meds once a day but am having a bit of trouble tolerating a recent 5mcg increase (was taking 10, now 15mcg) so I'd like to try splitting
