Vitamins D and K7
I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism nine months ago, and prescribed 50mcg levothyroxine per day. No mention was made of Vitamin D results or any related issues like ferritin,or B12. I take Vitamin D 2200iu throughout Winter, and, as of October 23, after some online research, added Vitamin K2, 100 ug.

Does biopsy spread cancer?
I've been diagnosed with Stage 2/3 PC. I wonder whether biopsies, by piercing the prostrate wall, allow cancer sells to migrate outside the prostate. Certainly e-coli can be pushed into it, since I got sepsis from my directed biopsy. What is the danger of METS being introduced to organs outside it with

super high gastrin level
hi there - I just got diagnosed with pernicious anemia, autoimmune gastritis, and Barrett’s esophagus 3 months ago. My gastrin in sept was 200, in Dec it was 1000, and now in March it is 2500. It’s escalated so quickly and my doctor just ordered a scan for neuroendocrine tumors. I’m freaking out —

Adding Kisqali to Letrozale treatment
It was just suggested to me to add Kisqali to my treatment of Letrozole. I am "cancer free" since I had a masectomy and everything was taken out. Are there any others on this chat with the same experience?

Actinic Keratosis
Good morning from the US of A, Yesterday I received notification from a scalp biopsy I had done last week that the sore on the top of my head is Actinic Keratosis. In researching it I found it is due to ultra violet ray exposure and it is pre cancerous. I mentioned to the Dermatologist that I have been

Docetaxel not working so stopped
I promised I would update you after my scan to see how the chemo was progressing. Well, the main reason for the chemo was that spots had appeared in my liver. Last week's CT scan showed that the spots have grown "significantly" so the chemo is not working. Also, my liver function blood test results -

HIFU 2023 article does not seem positive
This article from early 2023 does not seem positive on HIFU. https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00345-023-04352-9 I have a friend looking at HIFU in the setting of a clinical trial. He's Gleason 6 with just 1 of 12 portions of his prostate affected. Technically, he could do active surveillance

vitamin deficiencies
I had most of my sigmoid removed because of diverticulitis five years ago. My question is my surgeon said that it should not affect my vitamin or mineral intake because the sigmoid doesn’t involve that. Got on finding that it most certainly does I get a B12 injection because I’m a vegetarian so that

SBRT #4
Update on yesterday's SBRT #4. The machine that is treating me (Varian Edge) takes two revolutions to administer the fraction.

Low B12 levels
it’s not an area I know much about with a B12 level of 433 (187-833) would I qualify for B12 injections?
