CoQ10 Good or Bad? Necessary? Reaching a Conclusion, Coenzyme Q10, Statins, Prostate Cancer
I've reached the point of exhaustion on research. I feel I have a good a reasonable good grasp on everything, except CoQ10. And interestingly out of all the drugs and supplements discussed in this forum it is one discussed relatively much less than virtually all the other supplements and drugs. It's

Advice please : reduce levo when starting T3 or leave it alone?
On 125 mcg of levo with a FT4 of 21.4 ( 12-22) 94% through range and a FT3 of 4.5 (3.1-6.8) 37.84% through range, giving a ratio of 4.75 when beginning T3, would you reduce the levo or leave it at 125mcg ? ( TSH always appears suppressed due to Metformin, so isn't relevant, but it's 0.01 (.27-

La Roche’s Prasinezumab (“Passadena”) Trial (BN42358)
Diagnosed with PD two years ago at the age of 48, I guess I’m one of the lucky few to be selected for Roche’s Prasinezumab trial, due to begin this fall. Since my diagnosis, I don’t feel that my symptoms have gotten worse and I’m still able to keep the diagnosis to my inner circle (symptoms: slower

Why I can't increase the dose?
I have noticed over time that my values are below half the range, whether I take, ndt or synthetic. My endo thinks I could increase the dose but I don't feel well if I push the dose over the 125mcg levo(and some T3) or 3grains ndt Thyroid-s. My ft4 and ft3 are less than half. Vits and minerals are ok

Dapagliflozin, be duly warned about this drug!
In May last year after the most recent one of my Blues & Twoes A&E visits as a result of my heart playing up, I was eventually prescribed a whole host of additional medications including the new wonder drug Dapagliflozin which is for diabetes, but it turns out that it also appears to be working wonders

Why has B1 as TTDF been Black-Listed by the Research Community?
*** I ended up with High Blood Pressure taking TTFD. I no longer take TTFD. Based on my experience, I would not recommend TTFD. *** Why is there so little reliable data? The only reliable data, I can find is: A sport enhancing study; “Conclusion; TTFD could significantly improve physical activities”

DOES ANYONE HAVE EXPERIENCE TAKING METFORMIN AS A PREVENTIVE MEASURE
I AM A 66-year old female who was in top condition 18 months ago. It was a year before I received the PMR diagnosis and it's been 12 weeks since I've been on prednisone. I've tried to have a good attitude about the pred and to throw all my energy into my health and minimizing its side effects. I've

Long running saga which sorry for expletives in advance is really getting on my TITS now. You know that feeling when you begin to see the light at the end of the tunnel and some bastard pinches the bulb or forgets to put money in the meter. So I haven' felt 100% for years but you know how women

Metformin, and Statins, Yet Again
Just when you thought the door was slammed shut on any real benefit of Metformin for APC, it, and statins too, again show there is something of value going on there in this analysis of two trials. mTOR down regulation? Decreasing inflammation? Don’t know. Buy I am one non-diabetic who will keep these

Statin and metformin use and outcomes in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer treated with enzalutamide: A meta-analysis of AF
"The association between statin or metformin use and rPFS, MFS and OS was inconsistent across three trials. Analyses of all three trials pooled and AFFIRM+PREVAIL pooled revealed that statin but not metformin use was significantly associated with a reduced risk of death in enzalutamide-treated patients

Review of Top 10 Prescribed Drugs and Their Interaction with Dental Treatment
Yet another paper which hints at quite a bit - bit then is behind a paywall. If anyone has access, just knowing the outline of what they say could be very interesting. We have had many question the impact of thyroid issues on their teeth and dental treatment. [i]Dent Clin North Am. 2016 Apr;60(2):

Snuffy Myers on Metformin
Well I’d thought I’d throw another log on the fire since my last post seemed to elicit a lot of interest and discussion. I went back in my files and dug up a pretty comprehensive video by Snuffy on why and how to use Metformin. I’m not advocating its use, I’m not a doctor so I’m not qualified to do
