Venlefaxine
Is anyone else taking Venlefaxine? How does it affect you? I'm changing over to this from Mirtazapine. My GP advised to increase dose to 150mg. I've been on it three and half weeks and not sure it's really helping. I'm not getting major side effects but I feel more depressed and its not helping with

I have PMR and may have had Covid 19 recently.
I want to share this as it may alleviate some fears. Im not 100% sure but either I had the worse cold ever or Covid. I have been in isolation for the past 9 weeks, my husband is an essential worker and is out facing the public every day . I too was concerned that he would get it and pass it to me. Turns

Please help me. I have nowhere to turn and I need help.
Hi, I need help. 3 years I was a perfectly healthy woman or so I thought. I started getting neck pain and went to the doctor. After a minor examination of my neck the GP said I had a huge thyroid. I had no idea what that meant so she sent me for an ultrasound and low and behold I had a 9cm mass

When to stop taking calcium after stopping Lupron?
I was wondering when it was OK to stop taking calcium supplements after stopping Lupron? I have no issues with taking D3K2, but I am concerned that there are some current studies that show that this actually has no effect on bone density and actually at large doses can cause problems with prostate cancer

Post-treatment Levels of Plasma 25- And 1,25-dihydroxy Vitamin D and Mortality in Men With Aggressive Prostate Cancer
New Australian study below [1]. What does "post-treatment" mean? Vitamin D samples were collected "4.9 to 8.6 years after diagnosis". Our vitamin D resevoir is what is usually monitored:
25-dihydroxy Vitamin
{aka 25-D, 25(OH)D, calcidiol}. The hormonal form, which can vary throughout the day

Starting Prolia injections.. but worried of side effects !!
In 2.5 weeks, I am getting my 2nd shot of Eligard (6 months injection). During my last control (over phone due to Corona), my urologist said that I would also get a prolia injection along with the Eligard. Having read about it (densomab) - the side effects and not being able to quit when first started

Is Vitamin K the Secret Key to Bone Strength?
When we think of strong bones, we usually think of milk, a rich source of the nutrients that promote bone density: calcium and vitamin D. But we may be overlooking another important nutrient created closer to home—in our own gut, to be exact. Vitamin K produced by certain types of bacteria that colonize

L-thyroxine malabsorption due to calcium carbonate impairs blood pressure, total cholesterolemia, and fasting glycemia
Suggestions to separate taking levothyroxine from medicines/supplements is very frequent on this forum. And, yet again, backed up by research. These women will not have decided on their own, "let us take calcium carbonate after levothyroxine". No, of course not. Some medic, somewhere, will have suggested

More advice please
Can I ask if anybody S taking Adcal D3 along with Pred? My GP has asked me to consider taking it. It's a calcium carbonate and vitamin D3 chewable obtained under prescription. However it does come with side effects. I am already taking Vitamin d tablets along with calcium from the local health shop daily
