Low hemoglobin, and foot neuropathy common with ADT?
I was on Lupon for six months, three years ago and experienced feet going numb mostly at night and low hemoglobin. Those issues subsided once stopping Lupron for a few months. These symptoms became more acute during the last two years on Orgovyx with hemoglobin dropping to 9. ( I also had four

Vacation from Lupron/Zytiga - Temporary or Permanent!
I have been on ADT (Lupron/Zytiga) for 2.5 years. PSA and testosterone immeasurable currently. Looking to go on "vacation" from meds. History: Gleason 8/9 with a PSA of only 1.89 (on Finasteride). CT/Bone scan did not show any definite metastasis. PSMA PET showed "possible" metastasis in 4 spots

Daft question I’m sure - re NDT and effects of withdrawal
Hi I know this is probably going to be a stupid question. But being a bit cash strapped this month so ran out of NDT 3 weeks ago. I was taking 60mg in conjunction with thyroxine , 75mcg - reason I was put on it was due to poor t3 conversion so whilst my tsh looked over supressed my t3 was always sitting

Starting Abiraterone and predniSONE
Tomorrow morning I take my first dose of Abiraterone (Zytiga) and predniSONE for metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer. I don't know what kind of side effects I would get. I hope I would tolerate the treatment well. Reaching this stage of my cancer I reflect on my 12 year journey with prostate

Orgyvux(relugolix) and Zytiga(abiraterone)
I have a question from one of my support group members. They are currently on Orgyvux. Doc wants to add Zytiga to their treatment. Will the ADT side effects be the same with the addition of Zytiga, or will they become worse? Seems like the side effects would be worse, if T is driven to a lower level

Severe coronary atherosclerosis and ADT
My recent PET / CT scan mentions severe coronary atherosclerosis. Previous one only said The heart is normal in size with scattered coronary artery calcifications. Also the new PET ? CT said something about heart enlargement but the last one said size normal. Previous scans also said there was an enlarged

Has anyone whose tried T3 and NDT felt better on just T4?
A little bit of history - thyroidectomy aged 21. More or less fine on just T4 for 20 plus years. I then saw an Endo about parathyroid issues in 2018 at which point he suggested ERFA because he felt lots of my symptoms were related to my thyroid and T3 conversion. Since then I’ve tried many different

armour prescriber
hi all just joined this community I’ve been on armour NDT 3 grains for over 10y following my own thyroid journey with many many arguments - armed with ‘stop the thyroid madness’ as my guiding light! My wonderful private GP is retired & can no longer perscribe. I understand that no one can post where

Adjuvant ADT & duration
When studies refer to adjuvant ADT with radiation are they counting the length of time from the start of RT or the end of the RT course ? And as previously questioned I didn’t quite get the answer I was looking for. In research when they refer to 6, 12, 18, 24 or 36 months of ADT, are they counting

Quite happy with ADT
Almost 83 years old, living presently in Germany, RT and PT not possible, ADT during the last 9 months (Lupron quarterly), PSA down to undetectable, quite happy with that.

Covid & dosing
Hi, I tested +ve for covid this morning. It's the first time I've had it. I've had 5 vacs. My temperature is high & I'm taking paracetamol for that.My question is, should I alter my T4/NDT dose? I haven't been ill at all since I started on thyroid meds in 2015. I wondered if I should increase, decrease

Online prescription for getting NDT in UK?
Has anyone had any success getting Armour or ERFA from a UK pharmacy using one of those online prescriptions via a UK online doc?. I usually buy Armour or ERA online from abroad but prices are getting ridiculous and last time got stuck in customs for a month, I was concerned about customs keeping it

Thinking of taking an ADT vacation
Hi, just got my latest PSA result yesterday...it was 0.07 ug/l down from 0.14 ug/l one month ago. I'm almost at the 6 month mark of my ADT journey. Six months ago, my PSA was 14.9 ug/l. I'm thinking of taking a break from the ADT because of the side effects. Is it too risky? Would the PSA start

Xtandi gap
Long story short, I'm on ADT & Xtandi and just retired this past summer. While employed I was fortunate enough to have no cost for this drug that my medical insurance was paying $13k/month for. When I retired I had a 3 month supply that'll take me through mid-November. But when I have refill it this

Things I Like About ADT
I know that no one, like NO ONE, actually wants to be on ADT. There are a lot of downsides to it, and complaints about the fatigue, lack of sex drive, etc. are a common theme on this forum. I'm about a year out now from starting on Zoladex shots (a drug that works in the same way as Lupron), and I

High Potassium Levels?
I am just curious if anyone has had elevated potassium levels during or after PC treatment? Specifically Radiation and ADT. Hubby has dangerously high potassium levels, he has kidney disease so this is something that is watched. We even log all of our food and the Nephrologist is baffled by it-he doesn
