hypothyroidism and stomach ulcers
I've just been diagnosed with stomach ulcers. They've sent a prescription through for a heavy dose of Proton pump inhibitors. But I have questions. For example, how do they know its excess stomach acid causing the ulcers? I thought or perhaps read somewhere that when you're hypothyroid (even if euthyroid

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

Detection of Small Cell Prostate Cancer
I understand Small Cell Prostate Cancer (SCPC) may produce less PSA. How do you detect SCPC? Is it detectable by PSMA PET/CT scan?

anismus
I have chronic constipation. I think it is casued by various muscles not relaxing as the symptoms fit what I have read online. There are vaious names for this, anismus, dysssergenic defaecation and obstruced defaecation. I looked on this site and this is one of the groups that seems appropriate to post

Prostate cancer treatment and IBS
Dear Friends and Sufferers! I've been diagnosed with prostate cancer and have the option of removing the prostate or radiotherapy with or without hormone treatment. Can anyone out there who has experience of these offer advise on their impact on IBS and bowel function? At the moment, I've got IBS looseness

Rapidly rising TPO Antibodies, should I be worried?
Hi again everyone. Last Monday I did a home blood test with MMH, the full health + tpo. The results came back as 199 - range 0-35. I then had a GP appointment on Friday to discuss my concerns about my recent blood results, of course she completely dismissed them and told me to get some more bloods done

Bad dumping incident?
Hi there. Just thought I’d reach out to see if anyone can relate to my situation. I’m over 5 months from three way Oesophageal Surgery. I was doing really well with eating and fitness levels. Then last Friday (after a Chinese takeaway which didn’t consist of more than some noodles and a bit of chicken

GP visit!
So I went to see my GP yesterday and discussed my symptoms, and asked about B12 injections. Got the same old story - test within range, symptoms aren’t bad enough, try oral B12 for three months, despite my explaining that I have low stomach acid and problems with malabsorption, which she again dismissed

Are endocrinologists of any help after ADT?
After ADT, my MO told me that handling things like Prolia management won't be in her bailiwick. I didn't ask about post-ADT SE's and recovery from same. Hot flashes, low T, BMD loss, and last not least sarcopenia. What is the community's experience with how post-treatment SE's are best handled? Are

Just need some advice on self injecting.
Just need to come up with a safe plan for what to do about my B12 injections. After several years of symptoms like chronic fatigue, brain fog, dizziness, pins and needles, sore lips, dry skin, breathlessness etc I was finally diagnosed with a B12 deficiency in 2011. My B12 level was 154. By this
