The paradigm has shifted - castrate resistance.
It now appears that I’ve entered the land of castrate resistance and further ADT vacations are no longer in the plan. My T level recovered much more quickly during the last vacation than during previous vacations, and my PSA rose correspondingly. At 4 months my T level was 325 and my PSA was 4. Another

Lupus Tumidus
Hi All - After months of burning and itching skin, intermittent exhaustion, irritability, on and off leg swelling and joint pain, I have been diagnosed with Lupus Tumidus. Rheumatologist has said it is not SLE and will likely never turn into SLE. (I am not convinced but one battle at a time). Does

ALP AND RADIUM 223
My husband has had 2 sessions of radium 223 and the oncologist is pleased that his ALP has reduced to ‘normal’ levels after the first session and stayed the same after the second. However his PSA has continued to rise and has doubled over the last 3 months since he stopped abiraterone. The oncologist

Feeling lonely and fobbed off! What are these symptoms??
Hello, this is my first time posting so please bear with me.I am a 40 year old female. I was diagnosed with discoid lupus in 2005. Then a few years later, lupus panniculitis which is quite rare (fatty lumps under the skin which leave atrophies. (Mine are on my face, breasts, and arms). For the last

Social Isolation
Unfortunately, I don't have many friends for family to reach out to. MSAA's chat through HealthUnlocked here has provided me with much needed social connection. The MSAA help line suggested that I contact "MSFriends" so I just signed up for "MSFriends" peer support program through the National Multiple

Do you have lupus or another autoimmune condition?
There is still time to complete the survey conducted by RAIRDA (Rare Autoimmune Rheumatic Disease Alliance) on what patients think about the quality of their care, guidance and treatment for their Rare Autoimmune Rheumatic Disease (RAIRD). This is to provide valuable insights into the way services are

My introduction Hi
Hiya everyone. Here, as I have recently, by accident really, been to the doctor to see if I might qualify for weight loss drugs, having heard such good things about ozempic or the tablet version Rybelsus. Dr said no, I don't qualify for it. But BP was 185/172 which shows hypertensive crisis, heading

Echo results.
Hi I have afib, not usually too often but have had a few episodes this year. On all the usual meds. Have just been given an inhaler as hyperinflated patches were found on my lungs in a chest x ray. Anyway had the results of my latest echocardiogram yesterday and was wondering if you good people can interpret

Pericardial effusion
I had taken Prednisone for about three and a half years for PMR and stopped about four months ago. In December a follow up CT scan for something else showed fluid in the pericardial sac. One of the causes listed for this to occur is an auto immune condition. I have never seen anyone on this forum speak

Life Expectancy
My father was diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer four years ago. Initially, he underwent radiation for a few spots on his ribs and immediately began ADT/Xtandi treatment for two years.

drug vacation
Who had PSA level come back all the way down after a drug vacation? I want to do a holiday when my Lupron wears off in a couple months. PSA now is .053. Been on Lupron and abi for six years.

Advice about experts at London Bridge Hospital
I have an unusual history. In 2007, I recovered from several months in hospital with hypoxia and very severe chest pain only when I was put on heparin. I have a very severe history of clotting on my Mum's side of the family and family and friends begged the doctors to try anticoagulation because

Afib and Bone density supplements
I have had afib for about four years now. My latest bone density test shows osteoporosis. My primary wants me to take Prolia or some other prescription medication. My research indicates "causes arrhyhtmia" as the number one side effect. Clearly a problem for me. I have looked at several bone density

No more appointments
I had an appointment yesterday to discuss results of recent echo. Was seen by a specialist (can’t remember official title) who is a level below cardiologist - apparently does all the ground work and liases with cardiologist. He advised that as well as afib, I now have 2 slightly leaky valves and also

Liver Results - Noone can tell me whats normal
Hi All, I'm generally very healthy (lots of exercise) although since I was approx 23 (I'm now 57) my GGT levels have been elevated to between 58-88. This concerned me a little (didn't really concern my Doc) although my ALT's & AST's have always been within normal range. I do drink quite a bit...but
