Unsure of best option in early prostate cancer diagnosis.
I have had PSA tests annually for 10 years and in Oct 2023 had an elevated 6.42 result. Was referred to a urologist, whom performed a DRE. There was prostate enlargement but no tumor discovered through DRE. After discussing several options, I decided to have a biopsy on Nov 21, 2023. Dec 5, 2023,

Provenge (only) - impact on overall survival
I just got insurance approval for Provenge...out of pocket is really high so now I'm doing a cost benefit analysis in my mind. I've seen many different articles showing that Provenge ALONE only extends overall survival by 4-15 months. Does that sound correct? Tall_Allen mentioned adding xofigio for

Dosage for gabapentin enacarbil ( also known as horizant).
I have been on gabapentin neurontin for several months but I read that on the Mayo website that the time release version (horizant) is better suited for treating RLS. I currently take 1200 mg of gabapentin neurontin in two doses at 7 and bedtime. I have now convinced my doctor to prescribe the horizant

NHS London statement on Synnovis ransomware cyber attack
I am posting this using the NHS' own website version - it is covered across news sites as well. It seems it is having a major impact on blood tests - which might immediately affect some members. As well as the rest of the impact. [i]

I have been taking b1 sublingual 100 mg three times in a week under the tongue for quite a while l, but have noticed no difference. So now I am taking 100mgs of Thiamine Mononitrate. Which is better Thiamine Hydrochloride

Update on NOT a UTI
Hi, just to update. I had the cystoscopy this morning, not a pleasant experience, but no cancer, no inflammation and no gritty substance, so that at least is good. She did say some people's kidneys do just excrete microscopic blood particles as their normal, but that I possibly have overactive bladder

Nerves taken
I need some understanding. A friend just shared that he had a G8 and a psa of 10.2. He had a RALP and the doc said the cancer was contained to the prostate. Then he said that the doc took both nerve bundles (R & L). How is the cancer contained but required both nerve bundles to be taken?

Help with steroid induced hyperglycaemia
My story is in my bio as it’s rather long! Is there anyone out there managing Steroid Induced Hyperglycaemia? As I started on 70mg and had to stay on it for 6 weeks after diagnosis, I quickly developed SIH and have found it a daily battle to control it despite being on a very low Carb diet indeed! Diabetic

Azithromycin
Discharged recently from hospital after a long period of exacerbations and then pneumonia. After weeks of oral antibiotics and steroids had to have IV antibiotics. Next time I will probably have to begin IV immediately on flare up. I take 250 mg Azithromycin 3 times a week and was wondering does any
