low stomach acid
I am undiagnosed but with typical symptoms. I have yet to get bloods done privately as recommended here as my surgery have said they don’t accept those results. My GP says I’m subclinical and offered no thyroid related medication. My question here is dietary, will fresh pineapple help my digestion as

Psa results
A little disappointed. I got my psa results today, went from. 06 on 4/23/24 to .88 today. I have my visit with my MO on 7/29 and will find out the next course of action. I was surprised as I was undetectable from September of 2020 right up thru January of this year. Granted I had sbrt and was subsequently

Orgovyx: Check, Barrigel: Check, Next Up: Ray-Gunz!
After 16 weeks on Orgovyx (relugovix) my PSA: 0.71 (from 16.5) and my Testosterone: 25-ng/dl (from I don't know what. Normal T is 250-800 I'm told.) I want to pass on that I've been able to greatly diminish some SEs from the drug. I now take the pill in the evening vs morning, at approx. 9 to 10 pm.

biopsy
Is there any advantage to a prostate biopsy after initial radiation and 3/4 year of ADT…..? Salvage high dose brachytherapy is being considered and a third prostate biopsy has just been done. What might they be looking for…..placement,grade,Gleason?

newly diagnosed
my friend is newly diagnosed with CLL. It’s not at the stage of needing medical intervention. She wants to be proactive. Does anyone have experience of natural health treatments that work? Such as oxygen therapy or high levels of vitamin c? I would be very interested to hear of positive outcomes.

Sigmoid colon stuck to small bowel due to endometrial scarring.

Testosterone
Good morning, After years of hormone therapy and low testosterone, my bloodwork from Thursday shows an increase of testosterone. My chart shows it’s been less that 7 for a number of years, now it’s listed as 8. Does this mean that the Xtandi/Eligard is not working anymore?

GP visit
Hi there. I've had PMR/GCA for 10 years which once diagnosed was reasonably managed until 2018 when having tapered to 3.5 mgs, I was told to stop Pred within a fortnight by my rheumatologist who was confident it had gone. The resulting flare was worse even than the initial onset and after a good deal

Finding consensus on treatment and side effects
As per earlier posts I’m 72 yrs old with Stage 4 Gleason 9 with some spread outside of prostate. I started ADT treatment in April and finished 4 weeks of radiation therapy on July 5. Statistically I think I’m doing well. My PSA went from 8.4 to .012 in two months. Until recently I had really no side

FND and hormones
Hiya everyone, I was diagnosed with FND in 2021, my symptoms started in 2018 after many stressful life events. I’ve noticed my symptoms get worse just before my period. I’m perimenopausal so I started HRT (oestrogen gel and progesterone oral capsules). The progesterone seemed to cause a massive relapse

Tibolone or sequential hrt?
I had a hysterectomy 5 months ago for Adenomyosis/fibroids. They now think I have Endometriosis as my pain has flared up since starting hrt. I'm on Tibolone but I'm still in so much pain. Has anyone had experience of this and have they found sequential hrt better? I don't think the Tibolone is strong

intermittent ADT+Abiraterone
Six months ago I ended a 12 month holiday from my ADT + abiraterone. (In this post, I’m not asking for evaluations of the advisability of intermittency.) In making the decision to do the intermittency, my MO, among other things, said that the fact that I was on abiraterone was a positive factor for

I owe you an update
Many thanks to the members of this forum. FYI, I was diagnosed with a DRE last October, 2023. I had a biopsy in November and confirmed an aggressive stage 5, Gleason 9 in 6 of 12 cores prostate cancer. A series of scans did not detect involvement beyond the prostate. My PSA was 9 at that time. I began

catheter for urinary retention
Does anyone have advice or tips on getting a catheter removed? My husband had it inserted due to urinary retention. The oncologist said his prostrate is full of cancer and pressing on the urethra. He has started adt with casodex and lupron. Soon to add zytiga. He also takes flomax. He’s tried twice

breast pain
I’m currently off work, waiting on spine surgery since last October, but the last few months I’ve been getting pain in my left boob. I don’t know if it to do with my back, or if it’s manopause, HRT. Some days it’s quite bad, then another day nothing. But it’s there, more than it’s not. I don’t want

Back home & overthinking
After 12 days in hospital I am back home. I now have to wear morphine patches, (butec), take oramorph, cyclizine and various other medication. I've started my prostap injections so I'm mindful of monitoring my mood. I take HRT gel and tablets. It's a drain. So I decided not to to with the emergency

Is this decision right for me
I had a PSMA pet scan on 7/16/2024. The result shows a single tumor in my left lung measuring 8mm. My MO wants me to have the tumor radiated and monitor the PSA and its doubling time. A little background, I'm just short of 83 years old. I had prostatectomy in 2009, PSA undetectable until 2017. I had
