Suspect I have Addison's
I had a blood test yesterday and my serum cortisol was 330 nm/l.I have some hyperpigmentation & vitaligo. I think my GP was checking for Addison's. Hopefully now I can see an endocrinologist

Becoming mCRPC despite falling PSA
Hey guys, I got a question regarding my dad. He was diagnosed in summer 2022 with stage 4, Gleason 4+4, PSA of 122 and many osteoblastic bone metastases throughout the whole skeleton (very high volume) He did the triplet therapy, which lowered his PSA to 0.4 (January 2023). Scans afterwards stated

My introduction Hi
Hiya everyone. Here, as I have recently, by accident really, been to the doctor to see if I might qualify for weight loss drugs, having heard such good things about ozempic or the tablet version Rybelsus. Dr said no, I don't qualify for it. But BP was 185/172 which shows hypertensive crisis, heading

Stomach issues
Morning all, So I am just about at my wits end with chronic gastric reflux and chronic wind up and down without much smell. Sometimes I vomit with it, and now I can only eat jasmine rice and even struggle to get water down at the moment. My stomach feels like I have been beat up from the inside

Hi I have afib, not usually too often but have had a few episodes this year. On all the usual meds. Have just been given an inhaler as hyperinflated patches were found on my lungs in a chest x ray. Anyway had the results of my latest echocardiogram yesterday and was wondering if you good people can interpret

low resting heart rate

Advice about experts at London Bridge Hospital
I have an unusual history. In 2007, I recovered from several months in hospital with hypoxia and very severe chest pain only when I was put on heparin. I have a very severe history of clotting on my Mum's side of the family and family and friends begged the doctors to try anticoagulation because

Afib and Bone density supplements
I have had afib for about four years now. My latest bone density test shows osteoporosis. My primary wants me to take Prolia or some other prescription medication. My research indicates "causes arrhyhtmia" as the number one side effect. Clearly a problem for me. I have looked at several bone density

No more appointments
I had an appointment yesterday to discuss results of recent echo. Was seen by a specialist (can’t remember official title) who is a level below cardiologist - apparently does all the ground work and liases with cardiologist. He advised that as well as afib, I now have 2 slightly leaky valves and also

Basal Cortisol Test Result
I have recently had a basal cortisol test and my serum cortisol level is 296 nmol/L. I have an appointment with my GP on Wednesday to discuss. My test results says that this is normal but on reading information on the Internet I’m not too sure that this is entirely correct. I have found the following

Any treatment after Lu-177 (Pluvicto)?
I have metastatic prostate cancer and have taken two Pluvicto infusions, but my PSA has gone UP from 2,000 to 3,000. I understand this is the end of the line...unless anyone online has information on where to go from here. Frank.

Return of Armpit Odor - Yikes!!!
For almost two years, I (and others! 😃) have noticed the absence of male armpit odor. Attributable to full ADT (for metastatic PCa) and suppression of testosterone. (I'm on Triplet Therapy.) This morning I was surprised to notice odor for the first time since diagnosis. Due shortly for blood panel including

APS and Panic Attacks
Hi, I have been living with the diagnosis of APS since 2017 after a mini-stroke in my left eye, which fortunately left no damage. Recently, I switched from aspirin to warfarin after possibly experiencing another mini-stroke, though this hasn't been confirmed by tests. Sometimes, I feel dizzy, short

Hi all I'm going away for 6 weeks to france so I'm stocking up on meds. My question is how long can you go without apixaban in an emergency as I'm on 2 a day. Also on a small dose of bisop once a day. This is my first time away in a year since my stroke last July and a bit nervous 😓 Thank you
