SE from ADT and two natural remedies I always use. Anger=kava kava, insomnia=wild lettuce.
Hi fellow warriors, i am sharing this because after being an herbalist and wild medicine harvester there are two absolutely essential herbs i use to counter ADT side effects. Be advised I make my own so cost does not factor into how much or how often i take it. The most important is wild lettuce (

PSA post Salvage Radiation
Prior post: My husband, at diagnosis had 3+4 on a couple of samples and chose to have surgery. He had clean margins and reached undetectable PSA after Prostatectomy. Near the end of 5th year after surgery his PSA became detectable. He did salvage radiation at .09 PSA. His PSA went down to .08 after

Do I need 6th Pluvicto infusion? PSA undetectable for 6 months.
I've been on the PSMAddition trial having had 5 of 6th infusions. PSA undetectable (<0.02) since June (it was 0.31 in early May when accepted into trial with relatively low burden PSMA-avid lesions). Aug 4 CT/bone scans showed significant reductions in size and activity of lesions (prior to 3rd treatment

Quick follow up to PSA Bounce
RO called today and told me not to be concerned that my 1st PSA was 12 after original was 9 in March. He said that there are likely a few reasons. - remaing inflammation in prostate from treatment (I was tested 58 days after completing SBRT) -possible mild prostatitis -possible infection He said

Experiences of using HRT after oophorectomy+ hysterectomy
Hello, Would anyone mind sharing their experiences of using HRT after oophorectomy+ hysterectomy? I'm wondering whether to persevere with trying to find something better, or just give up entirely. Thanks 🙂 (I had my op years ago. Took over 2 years to get past the meno symptoms (no HRT). Thought

I posted my daughters pre hysterectomy bloods in September and had some excellent advice. She has redone the blood tests and I still think the thyroid test results are strange. She has been on iron for 8 weeks. The first results are for September. And the second for

Is it safe to use red light / near infrared therapy if you have Graves' disease?
Hi all, First a little bit of background about me. I am 49, living in Ireland. I have Graves's disease diagnosed by an endocrinologist who did antibody test etc.. After diagnosis I underwent 18 months on Carbimazole and then came off for a couple of months but my T3 and T4 shot back up again (and TSH

TSH & T4 levels
Hi everyone I’m new here. Can someone help me settle a bit of an argument around TSH & T4 levels please? I have recently had a consultation with Newson health who tell me on 100mcg thyroxine my TSH should be <1. My GP is denying that stating my TSH is normal at 2.5. My T4 is 18.0. I have felt like

HRT question: how long did it take to feel the effects?
I have been struggling with crushing anxiety, insomnia, depression for a few months. It's unlike anything I have ever experienced. I started HRT last week, and am hoping for a little easing of symptoms soon! Just curious about other women's experiences. Please share!

severe neck pain
I’m a couple of months in on eligard,abiraterone and prednisone(5mg). Mercifully I’m relatively SE free at this point but know it’s early…..what I DO have after the first few weeks is a chronically stiff neck that makes it impossible to move my head to the right…..Wondering if anyone has ever heard of

PROTACs: another technique to help with mCRPC
I always wondered, if these protein degraders can basically destroy AR receptors, hence overcome both castration resistance and making the cells refractory to androgens...wouldn't it be useless to continue with ADT? Oh well... https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0753332222015013

Results of MRI
So saw the endometriosis consultant today and he was very good. My MRI scan came back and showed extensive endometriosis that has obliterated my Pouch of Douglas and fully attached my rectum and bowel to my cervix. I've got an endo cyst on my left ovary and blood in left fallopian tube. Cervix is swollen

T level test
Having my first PSA test since IMRT in a few weeks. (last ADT/Lupron was early February. 90 day. Salvage IMRT Radiation ended Early January. Is there a reason my doc didn't order T level test to coincide with the PSA? Seems like you would track increases or Nadirs etc, having them tested the same time
