PSA rising after salvage RT. What next?
My PSA is low but on the rise. <.006 in January and .042 now. I'm not on ADT. See bio for history. I hate to stand on the sidelines and watch it rise. Is there something I can do, or do I have to wait until PSA rises then have a scan? What is SOC? Your comments are appreciated.

Cortisol help please
Been feeling really tired for about 6 months and trying to work out why. The last thing I had added before this was testosterone to existing HRT, so I stopped that again about 4 months ago, so not an effect of that now. I take T3 only, have not changed dose for some time and my results are towards top

Can I take my Levo &T3 at night with Progesterone?
Hi All, I’ve just had my HRT prescription changed - more estrogen and separate progesterone pills to be taken at night (have been on combined patch for 3yrs). I feel much better when I take Levo at night - do we know if progesterone interferes with Levo? Gynaecologist recommended progesterone at night

Pain everywhere.
I've been 10+ yrs searching for answers. I had some bladder problems in 2013. Doctors did surgery. I almost died. Apparently they told me my blood vessels looked funny. They didn't know if they "knicked " me or what but I lost 8 pints of blood very quickly. They barely got me transfusion in time. I chalked

Carbs vs. Fats vs. Protein
Has anyone come across research that speaks to what is the best diet strategy in terms of macros? I just finished my last radiation treatment! However, I will still be on ADT/Lupron for another 4 months. So it’s time to buckle up and get back to a cancer-preventive diet along with my current exercise

Success with PSMA-lutamide
Hi Everyone, I might get long winded in this, so the brief summary is: rechallenged with Pluvicto after a 4-year break while enhancing PSMA expression with darolutamide. PSA dropped from 44 to 3 after two treaments. I have lymph-node metastatic disease with neuroendocrine differentiation. I was on

Do I have a hysterectomy?
Hi, I’m 38, with DIE. Luckily I’ve had 3 children. I am waiting for excision surgery and a hysterectomy, with possible bowel surgery. I was happy with the decision, until I had zoladex. The add on hrt, caused my migraines to be more frequent, so I stopped it. Obviously I had all the usual side affects

Opportunities to help with research
Good morning all! We've had a lot of requests from researchers for volunteers to help with their studies. We've been sharing them on social media, but I thought I'd do a round up here. For most of them, there's simply an online questionnaire, but for some, it's more in-depth interviews and discussions

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?

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
