Porcine supplements or NDT ?
Hello I have had Hashies for about a year now. I am completely gluten free. My TSH levels hover around 4.8 so doctor won’t give me Levo. My antibodies are well out of range My CRP is just over 5. My ferritin is also way out of range. I’ve just bought some 40mg porcine thyroid tablets but only because

Ozempic-Anti Cancer?
I'm 10-15 pounds above ideal weight, not on any form of ADT. Since cancer feeds on sugar, does it make sense to use Ozempic to reduce blood sugar to presumably starve the cancer?

Intraductal Carcinoma & Cribiform pattern 4 treatment options?
Newly dx. PCa. with Intraductal carcinoma, IDC-P. This is the most aggressive prostate cancer type. In my case 4+3 with 70% pattern 4 with cribriform which make it even more worse. There are four types of pattern 4 (poorly formed glands, glomeruloid structures, cribriform glands, and fused glands) and

Compression fracture on T 10
My recent Whole body scan and CT scan for PCa ( diagnosed in 2016 with T3N0M1, after which I had radiation,chemotherapy and have been on hormone therapy since), showed a compression fracture on my T10 where I had SBRT radiation 2 years ago. My scans earlier in the year also showed a small fracture

Some hopeful test news:🙏🏻
My son had a PSA of 20 just 3 mo after RRP last October 24th. Prior to that we had no idea from his test results that the PC was outside of the prostate. It had gone to his pelvic lymph nodes plus he’s tertiary five. He’s been on generic Zytiga and prednisone and Lupron and finished six weeks of IMRT

More on statins
I've actually been tolerating ADT quite well over the past year but beginning in January I started feeling tightness in chest, low endurance, out of breath, heavy fatigue, attributing all to Xtandi...Then in May I fainted after getting up from the couch so the old lady took me to the ER...I had an emergency

Lack of NDT?
Hi there, a couple of ladies I know who are prescribed NDT are being told that there's none available. Does anyone know if this is a nationwide problem and if it is, why this is happening? Thank you, Julie

Osteoporosis risk with suppressed TSH
Many of the endocrinologist I've encountered seem to be vexed with borderline sociopathy, lurking beneath grimacing, slightly tolerant demeanors. However, the last one seemed to be merely friendly and inept. Recent communication from current specialist: "Having a low TSH can increase your risk for heart

NDT dosing confusion, how to make it work?
Hi All, Trying to understand the NDT dosing and if it's working for me. They say 1 grain of Erfa is about 100 McG of levo. However, 1 grain only gives you 38 McG of T4. So if I was on 88 McG of levo before NDT and I now take 1 grain of NDT instead, I only get 38 McG of T4? How does the 1 grain equals

Future after Erleada/Lupron
I met with a new MO today for a second opinion. I've been taking Erleada/Lupron for almost four years with few side effects (for which I'm grateful). I'm aware that my results have been very good and I wasn't looking for advice regarding a change in my care....I just wanted to have a second doctor

Coming off Pramipexole
I'm a 65 year old female in Norfolk in the UK, with hereditary RLS for which I was prescribed X1 every evening 0.088mg Pramipexole some 10 (possibly?) years ago. A year ago I had a single mastectomy, am on Anastrazole oestrogen suppressant hormone treatment and a Calcium/D3 supplement for that, along

Low-dose Aspirin.
I imagine that the new aspirin study [JAMA (1)] will get a lot of media play, but I will post anyway. A previous study concluded that the only people who benefit from low-dose aspirin are those who have already experienced a cardiovascular event. For everyone else, the risks obliterate any benefit

Am I a poor converter?
I've just had my latest blood test results after starting 50mg Levothyroxine 6 weeks ago:TSH 1.65 (0.27-4.2) FT4 15.9 (12-22) 39% through range FT3 3.4 (3.1-6.8) 8% through range FT4:FT3 ratio is therefore 4.7. Just before starting Levothyroxine, my results were: TSH 5.88 FT4 12 FT3 3.44 FT4:FT3

Short of breath
On Orgovyx, Nubeqa and Megace for last three months. Completing 27 of 27 fractions of radiation tomorrow. I am short of breath most of the time. A walk up a flight of stairs leaves me gasping. I continue to workout including running (slower and shorter since radiation started), hiking and weights

Converting NDT and T3 to combo
I am currently on 20 mcg T3 and 150 mcg Thyroid—S daily. I have always bought my own medication as I didn't think I would manage to get T3 on NHS. I have just received a message to say they will give it to me so I'm over the moon. They also want me to ditch the Thyroid-S and replace with 100mcg Levo.

High TSH on high NDT dose
Hey, I'm feeling so confused. Any advice appreciated! I have used Thyrogold (NDT) to successfully treat my underactive thyroid (Hypothyroid with Hashimotos) for the last few years. Occasionally my dose needs altering slightly but generally it has remained stable on this medication. I am currently taking

Frustrated at endo's obsession with TSH when other results point in the opposite direction
I hope this isn't going to take too long to explain. And this is really a frustrated rant about the obsession with TSH. I went to see a private endo, as my hypo symptoms had not resolved on a daily dose of 150mcg T4 and a split dose of 40mcg T3, given to me by an NHS endo who was prepared to accept
