QOL Post- Thank you KALIBER!
I was chatting with Kali several months ago after I was considering selling the scooter, fearing the loss of strength due to ADT would be an issue picking this 800+ lb machine back up if I ever lost my footing at a stoplight or something... I bought this brand new in 1982 when I was 27 yrs old. Kali

Thyroid and HRT- help please
Hello everyone, This is the first time I've posted. I have been taking Thyroxine for underactive Thyroid for around 10 years now. My dose is currently (and has been for the last 3.5 years) 87.5mg per day and I suspect I am undermedicated. I am also taking HRT (Evorel 25 patch (change twice weekly

Catabolic Wasting, Cachexia and Sarcopenia - Life Extension Foundation, Section Update: 03/2021
As most men with PCa are oldER and may be on some form of testosterone-blocking treatment, like ADT, odds are they are also struggling with the muscle-wasting and weight issues that comes with both oldER age and loss of T. This article from LEF is a very comprehensive overview of both Cachexia and Sarcopenia

Maddening Contradictory Advice
Latest update on my still hormone sensitive lymph nodes-only but widespread metastatic cancer is the Dexa scan showing I now have Osteopenia (no doubt occasioned by ADT regimen and lack of Testosterone). Iāve been told I need to get 1500 mg absorbable Calcium per day to prevent further lumbar region

ADT and Tendon Pain
Now in my 3rd year of ADT (Eligard), which has also included 2 years of Abi + Prednisone. I had issues with my tendons for years before my PC, but the problem has worsened steadily with the PC drugs. I now have tendonitis in both feet, both achilles, a hip, wrist, elbow and shoulder. We're encouraged

HRT options
Hello All, I had the Mirena coil (IUD) since starting menopause and was taking oral oestrogen HRT in addition for the hot flushes (nearly 10 years now). I was on Elleste solo 1mg, which I only took every 3-4 days, as I found this dose was okay for controlling the flushes, if I took more my breasts

Geranylgeraniol (GG), Tocotrienols, Ubiquinol (CoQ10), & statins and their relationship w/ lipids, heart health and APC patient treatments.
It's always difficult to present complex topics on this website, which involve anything more than one drug, treatment, or supplement and there relationship/affect on APC outcomes. It's obvious that it's easier to show a double-blind study of only one treatment/drug etc. and not mix several treatments
