Newly diagnosed metastatic PC treatment options
Hi, I'm 68 years old. Here are the key points in my story so far: In July 2023 a blood test showed a PSA value of 45. On September 26 2023, prostate MRI showed a dominant tumor in the prostate with extension into the right seminal vesicle. Also the fat plane between the rectum and prostate is lost

Robert
Robert was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in 2018 PSP in 2021 progression was slow at first. Last year Robert was walking with a cane and dragging his feet. In September he began to fall daily sometimes more. He got weaker every day and finally allowed me to call a rescue. What followed was a whirlwind

Combination therapy T4 + T3
Hi, since 2 weeks I started to take 10 mcg T3/ 2 days on top of my daily levothyroxine. I remember my periodic cycle was 24 days instead of 28 days when TSH was rising before. Today I was surprised to get my period at d23?! I am confused again. Was expecting the opposite.

Covid advice
Has anybody got any advice on how to deal with Covid when on combination therapy? I've just gone down with it for the first time and I'm wondering if I should just continue as normal. Have a pretty high fever and heart rate...wd the T3 exacerbate this?

Chiropractors
Sometimes I comment on chiropractors and how they can affect health issues. I posted this on another post and thought maybe some people, who do not read that post, could be interested. There is a chance that the condition of the spine could have something to do with AF. Heart doctors generally do not

Loneliness, anxiety and depression also PTSD
I have been in individual
therapy
for a very long time. I was in
group
therapy
but that is not available in my community. Lately PTSD has been an issue for me and I have a lack of people to get support from from that. There are so many things I used to enjoy doing and can't any more.

Occupational Therapy ‘drop-in’ event
Occupational Therapists play an important role in supporting people living with ataxia! We do occupations from the moment we’re born – they’re essential to living. They give our lives meaning and purpose, they shape who we are, and help us connect with others. This week is Occupational (OT) week!

New 2024 AUA/ASTRO/SUO Guidelines for Salvage Therapy
https://www.auanet.org/guidelines-and-quality/guidelines/salvage-therapy-for-prostate-cancer Not surprising. I think they should recommend adjuvant ADT at a PSA≥0.35 instead of ≥0.7 because I think patients are hoping for curative SRT and not just equivalent survival. https://www.prostatecancer.news

Aphasia
My husband is one month out of his tumor being 100% removed. His aphasia seems to be worse then it was 2 weeks out from surgery. He just started speech therapy this week. Is the decline normal?

Targeted Gene Therapy for Symptom Relief in Parkinson’s Disease
