Newly diagnosed metastatic PC treatment options
Hi, I'm 68 years old. Here are the key points in my story so far: In July 2023 a blood test showed a PSA value of 45. On September 26 2023, prostate MRI showed a dominant tumor in the prostate with extension into the right seminal vesicle. Also the fat plane between the rectum and prostate is lost

Liver Palms
Hi everyone. I have been diagnosed with fatty liver and have the red "Liver palms" I have been told this is a warning sign for a damaged liver. I have been abstaining for 2 weeks now.Can anyone tell me roughly how long this will last or does it only go away when my liver is back to normal? Thanks in

Recommendations for Endos in/near Berkshire

Update B12 appointment . help needed
Thank you all for your advice . Had an appointment yesterday and despite feeling exhausted dizzy and having some pins and needles in my hand. (NHS website says 2_3months with malabsorption issues.) . I was told they cannot go against local NHS guidance and got to wait for 12 weeks for my B12 jab. I

misdiagnosed cirrhosis?
I was diagnosed with cirrhosis approximately a year ago. Had all the classic symptoms with ascites being the worst. Every time the gastroenterologist sent me for an MRI, the ascites has interfered with the test. He reluctantly gave me a diagnosis of cirrhosis when pushed but didn’t seem confident. Been

The arrhythmia nurse wants me to reduce my bisoprolol dose after my cardioversion - fear of early relapse.
I had a 2nd successful cardioversion 5 days ago, and the arrhythmia nurse told me to reduce my dose of bisoprolol immediately from 7.5mg to 5mg as my heart rate was around 50bpm. However, unless I maintain NSR for 6 weeks after the cardioversion, they won't offer another one, so I'm reluctant to reduce

switching to a carnivore diet has put my PMR into total remission
I know the subject may be viewed as sensational or just plain wrong, but that is what I have concluded. At the time I was diagnosed with PMR, I already had diagnoses of psoriatic arthritis and fibromyalgia. My PMR started in 2019, about 8 months prior to covid. I was put on prednisone and experienced

hashimotos and cortisol testing
Hi there because of the fatigue I am experiencing, I am thinking of having some tests done to see if my cortisol is ok. I am aware of the short synachten test, the straight forwards blood test for cortisol or the 4x a day saliva test. Not really sure where to start or if this will be useful to my healing

PSA Doubled in 2 Months
PSA end of August was 0.12 now 0.24. I met with 2 ROs to discuss treatment when my PSA was 0.20 a week ago . One suggested ADT 18-24 months and prostate bed radiation. Second RO says we can avoid ADT for now as he sees 0.70 as the value he believes requires ADT. I'm scheduled for F18 PSMA scan in early
