Reporting results from Eclipse Trial
Prior to beginning trial last June I had just gone castrate resistant and PSA was at 3.3. A few weeks after the last of four injections PSA settled in at .25 so there was still something left. However PSA now has quickly shot up to .75 And since I stopped Orgovyx and Zytiga, Testosterone is going up

Post Cardioversion
In my previous post I explained that my 3rd carioversion did not work even after one hour I was back into afib. However something strange is happening or at least it seems strange to me but may be normal. Five days after my cardio I got up around 2:30-3:00 am to use the loo. I could feel my heart in

Has xtandi failed?
I had my lupron injection Tuesday and PSA checked. PSA 0.09, three months ago PSA was 0.06. I asked my doctor if xtandi has failed, he told me not necessarily. He told me once your PSA reached its lowest point it fluctuates up and down until it stabilized. I will have PSA checked again in 6 weeks

The disease is in thought, environment, perception and inherited information. Then it goes into our body chemistry.
I had a fabulous summer. Living in a natural paradise, having a vegetable garden, bathing in the river, meditation, Chikung, electric bike rides in the mountains, fresh air and springs, redox molecule supplements, electro-stimulation with micro-currents, etc. have all made my Parkinson's "even better

Mitral valve (moderate)regurgitation and AF.
Has anyone with AF been diagnosed with MVR? What is the treatment, can you still have an ablation or perhaps......this may not be needed if the valve is repaired? To me it does seem pointless having an ablation if the Regurgitation is the cause of AF and this is not addressed first. On the plus side

amiodarone
Was admitted via A&E to hospital last October with fast AF, 174 bpm., Sob, high bp. Because of other underlying problems with CKD, doc put me on Amiodarone 200mg daily, along with Nebivolol bi-daily, replacing Bisoprolol. Was discharged after 6 days when heart rate was consistently below 80bpm. Now

do I need my inhaler ?
hi all, I’m new to this forum and new to my illness which I haven’t really been informed of in much detail. I had a collapsed lung in September last year and they did a cat scan 3 weeks later. The results letter that they sent my doctor was also sent to me. I’ve gathered that I have emphysema and bronchial

He lived a wonderful life
My father passed away on Sunday, 10/15/2023, at the age of 91. We initially learned of his very high PSA level on 10/14/2021 (two years prior), with the diagnosis of Stage 4 metastatic prostate cancer soon thereafter. In addition to advanced prostate cancer, he had dementia that progressed significantly

One litre of fluids
After having pneumonia with fluid on the lung I have now developed heart failure.My recent x-ray was showing I still have fluid on my lung. I don't have any shortness of breath at the moment. I was surprised to hear this. Apparently it's worse than it was. A consultant from the hospital rang me to ask

B12 made symptoms go away
Hi. I had ME/CFS and it seemed to clear up 16 years later. About 3 years ago, I had fatigue, myclonic jerks especially while sleeping which woke me up and tremor feeling inside me. I took B12 sublingual for 2 or 3 weeks and the symptoms subsided. But then I stopped taking the B12 supplements and I have

Coming home
So after 4.5 years in Nigeria and an APS diagnosis in summer 2020 I’m coming back to the U.K. In many ways I’m looking forward to it and I know my consultants - all 3 of them - will be much more comfortable with me being near better medical care (APS, warfarin and epilepsy are not a good combination

blood test results
Hi all. I am age 24 male. History with excessive alcohol for the past 5 years. I recently got a full blood work carried out at my GP and my liver enzymes came back as ok, but I don’t really understand what any of it means. I tried calling my GP and it’s like trying to milk blood out of a stone

seeking more info with yet more questions
Hello. As I begin to write this it's 5:45 in the morning here. Trying to get at least some type of sleep. Still having loads of anxiety but trying to calm myself down to at least write this. Glancing over once in a while to check oxymeter, heart rate ranging from 92 to 104, oxygen steady at 96-97.

Nausea - Levo/Thyroid symptom?
I am at a complete and utter loss. Why as I optimise dose do I feel nauseated for days now? As of a few weeks ago I’ve been alternating doses of 75mcg own day, followed by 100mcg of Levothyroxine only for hypothyroidism (Hashimoto). Same brand throughout treatment thus far. Perhaps it’s nothing to

Hello
Introducing myself, as I'll be looking through posts in the coming weeks... I'm 61, recently diagnosed with AF, but reckon I've been suffering for about 2 years. Biosprolol, Apixaban and Digoxin. Due to do the 'zaps' in 8-12 weeks.

What the Heck? I thought boosting Short Chain Fatty Acids (SCFAs) was a Good Thing?
So... I'm digging into PDTom's post: Propionic acid (sodium propionate) - Does anyone have any experience? https://healthunlocked.com/cure-parkinsons/posts/150101092/propionic-acid-sodium-propionate-does-anyone-have-any-experience
And the feedback seems to be "Go Propionic Acid!" so I start

My son’s PSA rose a bit today.
My son’s last PSA three months ago was <.01 but today it was <.10.It was previously as high as 22. He’s also tertiary five. His Mayo doctor told him to continue to test every three months, stay on current meds Lupron, Abiraterone/prednisone for another year and two months then stop meds and wait
