Hi I'm not new here but I thought I'd take a shot in the dark and explain the predicament that I am in. I have a prolapsed stoma which is 4 inches long and 55mm in diameter I've also herniated my bowel with it being 10cm in length. I also have 1 metre of small bowel left so not really much at all when

Side effect of Lupron
We have a quesiton about swelling foot and ankle after Lupron injection and wonder if anyone has had a similar experience. My husband was just diagnosed with PC back in April, and he is on ADT while waiting for his CK treatment this month. After three-weeks of Lupron injection, he now has a swollen

Hypogonadism, heat flushing, and testosterone replacement
Hi all, It is almost a year since I had my external beam radiation for Gleason 7 (3+4) PCa (see my profile). So far so good: 4 PSA tests were reassuringly low. I am now almost 82 and I am hoping to deal with my strange heat-flushing problem, which I have had for several years. It predates my cancer

breathless when hypothyroid?
I am currently “dysthyroid” as my gp puts it. Briefly - diagnosed with hypothyroid disease in 2016 (all antibodies negative). Since starting transdermal hrt in Jan my thyroid levels hv plummeted (result posted recently but roughly T4 7.2 (11-22) and T3 2 (3.2-6.8). These results are from when I was taking

Hot Flashes
Centrum is advertising a number of products that reduce hot flashes in post menopausal women. Are any of these effective for those of us on ADT ?

Binding globulins...
Anyone got a good handle on these, please? The reason I ask is that I have had 3 months of increasingly debilitating fatigue. I take T3 only and was on 100mcg, which took me 70% through the range, I have also tried 125mcg which takes me well over the top, but still tiredddddd. I have tested cortisol

How is the second generation ADT like xtandi , zytiga etc decided ?
What determines which second line ADT will be given to whom ? I see there is zytiga , xtandi , nubeqa and others. Is it just left to the MO to decide ?

Does Decapeptyl ever just stop working?
Hello. I have an appointment in a couple of months with my gynae to review my treatment. I've been on Decapeptyl for two and a half years now, with low dose HRT to keep hot flushes etc at bay. I had a lap about 18 months ago. I do have occasional pain but nowhere near as bad as it was pre-lap and pre-injection

How do I gradually run faster, what’s best?
I need to go to go out & do Wk 8 Run 2 this morning & prevaricating (but will do it) …. I’m an exceptionally slow runner and run 1 on Wednesday felt rubbish, so was good to read about Toxic 10 & Tomato Ten in someone else’s post as I do have these! (And in swimming too!) I want to run gradually faster

Using Red Clover, Sage and Ashwagandha for the menopause, and it's safety with hypothyroidism?
Hiya. I am currently in the menopause with early onset osteoporosis, and have autoimmune related hypothyroidism. I am looking into various ways to manage this, conventional HRT being the least desirable. I much prefer natural ways to manage my health wherever possible, and I've found various herbal supplements

How prostate cancer transforms into aggressive NEPC following treatment with anti-androgen therapy.
This could be a game changer as it could stop PCa from progressing. Science is going to save us. The development of effective anti-androgen therapies for prostate cancer is a major scientific advance. However, some men who receive these targeted treatments are more likely to develop a deadly treatment-resistant

Early breast cancer
I've just been diagnosed with early breast cancer. I've had mammogram, biopsy and mri. The lump is 3cm. I am awaiting a tests on my lymph nodes. Then have been told lumpectomy, radiotherapy and /or chemotherapy. It's oestrogen and progesterone driven. I am on hrt, I'm perimenopausal. I also had a heart

apalutamide vs. abiraterone
My husband has been recommended ADT + abiraterone + prednisone for two years. My friend who is an oncologist suggested apalutamide instead as it doesn't need to be supplements with prednisone and has less side effects. Wanted your opinion.
