Hello there, help please! Results listed below....I have always been symptomatic with Hashimoto's, diagnosed 2019. Was on just levo for years but after DIO2 testing and conversion rate of t4 to t3 being low I was started on a trial of T3 in march 2023. I always have blood testing between 8am and 9am.

SE's on Cabazitaxel/Carboplatin Combo
Fellow chemo warriors: I'm hoping your experiences can shed some light on my latest treatment variation. Long story short: I had 3 docetaxel infusions with zero side effects. Unfortunately, the response was only partial, so last week I started on Cab/Carboplatin combo. This has been a very different

PMR again ?
I stopped pred on 8th October after 4 years and was OK until now. I have developed stiffness and aching in hips down to knees and am wondering whether the PMR has come again due to stress. I was diagnosed with breast cancer on 11th October and am currently on Letrozole to (hopefully !) shrink the tumour

I completed couch to 5k a few years ago & loved the experience - I was then addicted to running, to the freedom, how it helped clear my mind, distressed me, made me fitter, I could go on . However in November 2022 I got the worst news ever- I had cancer - by December 25th I was laid in hospital after

Prostatic Artery Embolization
I’m 67 year old and have been suffering with BPH for years. Don’t want to do TURP or lasers. I’m interested in doing PAE. Has anyone had this procedure done. Does it work. I had a cystoscope and the urologist found a medial lobe at the neck of the bladder. Would PAE work if the blockage is located there

WHAT ARE THE CURRENT EFFECTIVE SALVAGE TREATMENTS IN CASE OF A REOCCURRENCE IF YOU HAVE HAD SBRT,IMRT, WITH PLACEMENT OF GOLD BARS?
It appears that if you had SBRT or like myself IMRT and you were given
gold markers
you cannot do any of the following
salvage treatments in case of a reoccurrence
: Proton therapy, Hifu, Tulsa Pro , Etc. Is this true???? Again a significant fact left out before treatment...

anyone else feel wierd after discontinuing Piqray / Faslodex?
Hi all, my docs took me off Piqray and Faslodex a week ago. Since then I’ve had worse night sweats and diarrhea then when I was on the drugs! Plus a lingering headache and overall yucky feeling. I assumed it would resolve after a couple days but it’s been a full week. Has anyone else experienced that

swelling around DBS battery 5 weeks after surgery
It’s been 5 weeks since my battery placement surgery and when I woke up this morning my battery site is puffy. The incision has healed and looks fine. No redness or fever either. I’m not sure what caused this. I called my surgeon and sent pictures and they are going to see me Monday morning. But they

Reacting to piqray.
Don’t want to worry anyone, but just wanting to know if anyone has had this reaction to Piqray. I’m into my second week. On Piqray and Fulvestrant. At first I thought it was only my bottom, (left side) near site of injection, that was itchy. Then I started feeling a prickly feeling all over my body.

anyone tried low dose naltrexone for fertility?
Hi there, I'm just come across Low Dose Naltrexone and the LDN Research Trust and it seems to work miracles on both fertility and autoimmune conditions (I have hashimoto's - auto immune underactive thyroid) and have been trying to conceive naturally for almost three years. I wondered if it's something

Thyroid Cancer
I had thyroid cancer so had mine removed. My food only goes down my right side of my pipe and my breathing pipe was damaged as well. I seem to get a lot of chest infections on my left side. I have a horse voice all the time. I have nodules on my lungs. I have other medical issues. I suffer from depression

Fallout from PET/CT Scan
My PET/CT scan on November 1 detected progression of metastatic prostate cancer while on Lupron. This made my cancer castrate resistant and I am on Abiraterone 1000 mg + Prednisone 5 mg. The PET/CT report also stated severe coronary artery calcification. Yesterday I had CT scan of the heart. The report

Lap V Lap Hysterectomy
At the risk of summoning a barrage of 'hysterectomies are evil' replies, I wondered if anyone can help me as I am totally lost for what to do next. I am 41 and I have deep-infiltrating Endo, as many of you do I'm sure. Today I went to see an Endo specialist after an 18 month wait as he is supposed

DBS energy
Hi guys. I keep reading about people who -post DBS - went and ran a marathon etc and appear to have gallons of energy. Should I be feeling this? No, I don’t think that they’ve got the program right yet but running a marathon? Ay ay ay

Hi everyone. I havent posted for a few weeks . my partner Nick has now had all his tests, scans and a biopsy on his hhc tumor to confirm that it is actually HCC. He has been told that he cannot have ablation, which is what he wanted to have, because of the position of the tumor. He may possibly be
