ADT and crying
Does anyone else that has been on ADT drugs for years have trouble with tears or crying for no real reason? I tear up anymore at just the thought of something sad. It’s a major pain in the ass, not to mention embarrassing because I am still employed. Wondering if there is a solution other than stopping

Still confused about PSA and Testosterone testing
I have been reading posts here for some time and there seems to be a split between those who only get PSA tests each time they go to their doctors and those that get both tests each time. I had a baseline testosterone test before Lupron and before radiation. I am now doing my 6 month follow up and

First DEXA shows osteopenia - hoping for some advice please
Hello everyone, this is my first post to Bone Health, but I have posted to other Healthunlocked forums recently as I’m trying to work through my various health issues. I’m in the UK and hoping to get some advice from those more experienced than me please. I paid privately for my first DEXA scan in April

ART Long-Term Mortality Low Regardless of Treatment in Local Prostate Cancer
Amazing! The headline states that there is ‘low’ mortality regardless of treatment for local PCa…really? Well, that did not make me feel very good as I opted for treatment! RP, followed by ADT for 6 months, followed by IMRT sRT, followed by 15 months of ADT post treatment…I was not feeling so good

Thanks and hope to all
No questions …just wanted to thank everyone for all your input and support …especially during the holidays. Had my Christmas radiation treatment yesterday and 7 of 15 linac dose today.. Brachytherapy prior with ADT for the last 7 months. Things seem to be going as smoothly as it sometimes does. Appreciate

Is nmCRPC potentially curable?
I would appreciate any input on this. I searched the internet and found this article from Fred Saad: Treatment of nonmetastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer: focus on second-generation androgen receptor inhibitors https://www.nature.com/articles/s41391-020-00310-3 I couldn't find anything

CBC test anemia: high MCV, MCH, low RBC and leukocytes?
Writing for my partner, who is exhausted and down after 5 months ADT and 28x radiation. Returning home he went for CBC, and it came back high MCV MCH, low RBC and leukocytes. His primary w/0 knowledge of cancer tx says nothing. I'm not content with this, I hate to see my partner so tired and unenthused

Relative risk for secondary bone marrow cancer within 5 years after initial CLL chemoimmunotherapy treatment (typically BR or FCR)
In countries where targeted therapies ('brutinibs, venetoclax, obinutuzumab/rituximab) are now available, the remaining reason that FCR (Fludarabine+Cyclophosphamide+Rituximab) is still sometimes recommended for the treatment of CLL is that it can be curative* about 55% of the time - but [u]

happy holidays …. And a quick update
Just a quick note to wish all the warriors here a happy holidays with friends and family. As an update, I’m off all treatments and my psa remains <0.014. I remain grateful for the respite. My last degeralix injection and darolutamide was in May, and the SBRT to my ribs and neck about 2 years ago

Hypo book recommendations please UK
Hi, please can someone recommend a book to start to understand likely hypothyroidism? A UK publication please. I joined yesterday and am just trying to get my head around it all. I have lots of symptoms and my TSH is creeping up with TS4 and especially TS3 scratching the bottom of the normal range

Radiation PSA, Orgovyx, Bone density
Rouge clone radiation on 10/31/23 has PSA continuing to drop to 0.85. MO plans to monitor PSA before requesting PSMA scan (insurance) unless it is increasing. Considering switch from Eligard to Orgovyx if PSA looks good in early Feb since Orgovyx apparently has less severe SE and doesn't tie me to

A question on 'high' dosage
So I'm currently on 150mcg of levo and 30mcg T3 and my latest results were still only 65% and 62% respectively. I've just started HRT so I may well continue to see improvements but I'm curious about my dosing. I'm 6'1" and roughly 65kg so I'm on the cusp of underweight. I know we need what we need

ED Results after 20 IMRT Treatments ?????
I am g7 (4-3). 68 psa 8.
I just finished 20 IMRT treatments at UCLA .
Please advise me again the ED side effects with radiation and timelines.
I remember from my research that with radiation you should have the same baseline "good" erections for the first 2 -3 years.

Does The Thyroid Affect Potassium Levels?
Hi! A bit of a random question but I’ve recently had some bloods taken by my GP surgery and my potassium levels have come back a little low (3.2 range 3.5-5.3) My TSH is 3.06 (range 0.27-4.20), which I think is a little too high although in range, so it got me thinking if there is a link at all between

Utrogeatan and Hashi-soybean lecithin issues?
Hi everyone, I recently started with bioidentixal HRt (oestrodose and Ultrogestan(progesterone). I have hashimotoes so do not eat soy or gluten. Having taken it for about a month I noticed the corners of my inner eyes red and inflamed which is what I get when I consume allergens. On researching I found
