PSA still low but cancer progressing
I've been on ADT plus Xtandi for about a year (see my profile) and my PSA has steadily reduced and stayed low. However, my latest CT scan shows that the tumours on my bones and lymph nodes are increasing in size and there are now a few small lesions appearing in my liver for the first time. Not the news

Collagen for Hair Growth?
Hello everyone. My hair has got worse (thinning and brittle) since being on T3/T4 combination therapy so I've been looking at what makes hair healthy and collagen keeps popping up as good nutritional support. I've also discovered another reason could be that I've been taking too much selenium and perhaps

Struggling Parent New to ADHD Diagnosis
Hello, I have two children. My son is 8 he was diagnosed a little over a year ago with ADHD. We have tried several medications and they seem to work for a short period and then he needs dosage increase which seems almost too often. And I don't want him to be a zombie or anything like that.

Had my REMS scan today
Excellent session and good news - REMS shows that I don’t have osteoporosis even though DXA says I did! I am osteopenic which is what I suspected and why I wanted the scan. Advice was to manage with diet and exercise which I am all in favour of and no intention of ever going on the drugs. Dr was very

"Your thyroid's fine"...what do you think?
Hi. I've been told by a GP that my thyroid is fine. I don't think it is. I'd be grateful for your opinions. Like many others here, I'm fed up with Dr.s saying it's my age, the menopause, or there's nothing wrong. Medichecks results: May 23 Thyroglobulin Antibodies: 423.000 kIU/L (Range: <115

ADT how long
I just started hormone therapy about a month ago on orgovyx pills. They're telling me today I need to stay on this for 2 years. Why so long?

Advice on halting bone loss following Dexa and hrt or other supplements.
Thyroid cancer at 23, high dose T4 requiring propranolol for 17 years, then battles over dosage post menopause as rules changed. T3, when measured, always seemed to be at a good level. I didn't take HRT as it was at the height of the cancer scare. I regret it now. Sjogrens and very low vitamin D diagnosed

Degarelix and increased diabetes risk?
My husband had his first Degarelix injection last week. I have been reading that men who get ADT have an increased risk of diabetes. Just wondering because he had a blood test today, and his glucose was high. Diabetes runs in his family as his father, brother and sisters all had/have diabetes. Both father

Update: PSA after IMRT
After my 40 treatments, I wanted to get off the bicalutamide I had been on for 2 months. My breasts had not only gotten enlarged but they had also become quite painful, and the Tamoxifen my RO had put me on did not help with this. He then ordered an early PSA test, and when it came back at just .12

Your thoughts on next course of action
First, I'd like to thank the many good folks that contribute this forum. Your inputs have been a life send to me over the past several years, especially Tall Allen who recommended UW Medicine where my MO and RO are located. They have been fantastic to work with. The short story - Diagnosed in 2018.
