If you can't love someone at their worst, you don't deserve to love them at their best. I meet a woman suffering catatonia and RLS in a psychiatric hospital, woman had serious injures, from jumping out of a car, her doctor said to me she was quiet psychotic when she first arrived to the ward. While

I’ve got LGSOC and am wondering whether anyone with the same is currently involved in any clinical trials ? And what is being trialled and how you are finding it? I’m curious as I’m thinking about asking my oncologist about offering myself to any emerging trials in the UK. Thanks a million, Melanie

A new paper reporting a small case series of 4 patients who got relief from low dose aripiprazole (abilify ) after augmentation that was resistant to other treatment. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37818170/ Does anyone have any experience with aripiprazole? I took it long ago, before I was even

A new and hopefully potent ADC. Antibody-drug conjugates, not only for prostate cancer, are a hot topic now, so they should get better and better as competition rises. https://www.biospace.com/angiex-announces-first-patient-dosed-in-phase-1-clinical-trial-of-agx101-a-novel-tm4sf1-directed-antibody-drug-conjugate-for-the-treatment-of-solid-tumors

I was reading this short report (our BAT friends are involved) thinking it showed real promise for C, then in conclusion they say no. Agreed the p values are high, the CIs are wide, but the results were so lopsided that to me it merely means the trial was underpowered and C is worth a try. High-Dose

Hi there, I have recently been advised to have a myomectomy in order to increase my chances of conceiving. I have three fibroids at the top of my uterus that appear to be removable through keyhole surgery. I'm debating whether to go ahead. I'm nearly 44 and feel that time is against me to start having

I received an article about clinical trials at the University of California San Francisco on a drug that can repair myelin. It uses venom from the green mamba snake. I'm wondering if the side effects include developing a lissssssp? 🤣 It's a long way from being available, but it sounds interesting

I know that some patients take these supplements in spite of clinical data showing no effect for prostate cancer. I updated the article on curcumin with health warnings on hepatotoxicity. PLEASE, if you are taking either or both as supplements, at least tell your oncologist, and get liver enzyme tests

I was recently diagnosed with localized prostate cancer Gleason 8, which fortunately was caught early. After initial discussions with my healthcare team, I've begun hormone therapy, receiving my first injection about three to four weeks ago, along with a 28-day course of tablets.

Hi. My name is Zara and I've been sabotaging myself during my recovery journey. I've been sabotaging myself at work and alienating myself from people. In January, I suffered from severe depression and got better, but then I started to hurt myself mentally. I discovered that there are other people like

In vitro/in vivo but ready for clinical. I have found and tried to read the paper...what I understood is "great news!" but don't ask me to explain better than this: Prostate cancer treated with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) can (will) develop into castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), making

I finally found a local clinic to administer it (although I may have to go to Orlando to have the blood drawn each time). Interestingly, it is being done by a Urology clinic. Apparently
