Ruled by anxiety
Hi all. This is my first post. I'd like to say that I have been taking Effexor for years, and have been given Xanax as well, which I never take simply because I want to limit my intake of pharmaceuticals. The Effexor has done nothing for me, and it is so very difficult to wean off of it, which I decided

Long-term overall survival of radical prostatectomy patients is often superior to the general population
New German study below [1]. An odd observation. Perhaps the lifestyle changes that men make after diagnosis really do make a difference? It is not surprising that the benefit would diminish with the seriousness of the cancer, but even the high-risk guys did slightly better than the life table. "A total

Radiation or RP for capsular contact?
I have Gleason 7 (3+4) but a high risk Decipher score. Prostate is around 35 cc so SBRT is still a good option as is radical prostatectomy. My MP-MRI showed a 5 mm capsular contact. A surgeon says he can still likely save the nerves on that side but if there is any doubt he will have to cut into the

THC/Marijuana: Why/how does it work for PD?
I live in the US in a no-marijuana state but only 5 minutes from a recreational-legal state. I usually go to my sister's house (in the legal state) at bedtime, grab an edible, then head home to sleep (it takes about an hour to kick in). Without THC, I barely sleep at all. It takes 4-5 hours to fall

I'm not new here, but I have only been a spectator for a few years. I'm 71, diagnosed with prostate cancer 20 years ago. After radical prostatectomy, clinical trial of chemo, and external beam radiation, the psa slowly rose until about 4 years ago, when I began Lupron injections. The psa went down

Marijuana
For those with access to medical marijuana, I have found my favorite variety for RLS (for me). I rely on tramadol and cannabis - both smoke and tincture. But a friend gifted me with some apricot kush. OMG. Instant relief. And relief from my arthritis pain, as well. And blessed sleep. YMMV

Hello. Had 2 panic attacks today. Have been on lexapro 15mg now. So I told my dr I want off this med. she’s weaning me down slowly. I’m thinking of using medical marijuana. Any thoughts?

Effect of Erythropoietin on Erectile Function after Radical Prostatectomy: The ERECT Randomized Clinical Trial - Journal of Urol - July 2021
Results of a small study on the effects of the use of drug Erythropoietin prior to radical prostatectomy to improve erectile function after surgery. No positive benefit shown and the study seems to confirm that a good surgeon who can spare the nerves (that's why it's called nerve-sparing surgery) is

BEST PRESCRIPTION SLEED AID
I stopped taking Diphenhydramine as a sleep aid after reading all the negative effects it has on rls. Wondering what most people have been prescribed by their Doctor for better sleep. I currently take Gabapentin and use medical marijuana but it requires high amount of thc to give me a decent night sleep
