Is there hope? I’m dreading asking the question of “how long”…
My father was diagnosed in September ‘23 with a PSA in the 900s. It had already metastasized throughout his body in several parts of his bones (ribs, spine, hips, femur and a spot at the base of his skull) but no organs had been affected other than his prostate. We were hopeful when it began to climb

Lone Paroxysmal AF or Hypothyroid Symptom?

Moving from Levo/T3 to NDT experiences
I am wondering, after all these years, whether Levo and Liothyronine isn't the answer for me. I have read in many posts that many have moved over to NDT and doing much better. I am looking for comments please from ANYONE that made the move to NDT and your experience in doing so, whether it be positive

RO Advice for Salvage Rad
One of the ROs I've had a consult with wants to do salvage rad soon (Post-RP PSA is north of 0.1). However, he wants do the SRT w/o ADT. His rationale is that if we do ADT concurrently, there's no way to tell if the SRT was working. Plus, he says that if the SRT fails, then I'll be in the same boat

Are you adding t3 to NDT? Why and does it work for you?
Hi All, I have come across a blog from Dr Childs, he seems to be using t3 with NDT with most of his patients. Armour doesn't work for me on its own, I have been adding T4 to it, but so far haven't felt better, it feels worse to an extent, when I add it. I would love to hear from people, who are adding

DHEA supplements: high level, fast heartbeat and want to come off it asap any advice?
Hi there, I posted about 18 months ago my saga with my endo who refused to recognise that major stress trigger messed up my thyroid levels and of course the TSH issue. Then I increased my ERFA from 75mg to 90mg and in April 2022, I started taking 13mg DHEA every day - this combination definitely helped

Semaglutide et al
I have never been obese (BMI >=30) but I have certainly been overweight (BMI>=25). There are many PCa papers associating "obesity" with poor survival. BMI is a surrogate for visceral adiposity (not always very accurate). Mortality risk with a BMI of 29 is presumably not much different than for a BMI

As I am 10 months PSA undetectable and clear on basic bone scans I have started the process of consultation re staying on ADT (zoladex) and Apalutamide continuously or moving to intermittent (and what would that involve) or getting more treatment (J591 for example aimed at micromets).

I'm reading a book by Dr Edward Friedman [i]The New Testosterone Treatment. [/i]I am finding it fascinating and confusing. He claims that the acting hormone for promoting Pca growth is estradiol and not testosterone at all. He makes a very convincing case for his claims. I'm trying to reconcile this

Low tsh but is it result of taking NDT?
I just had a blood test that has come back with a tsh of 0.05 range is 9.0 to 25.0, I think it was similar on last test 2 yrs ago and I think it is because I take NDT . Would any think this is too low? , should I reduce my ndt, have been taking 3 grains of thyroid s for last 2 years. I do feel jittery
