Do you that have had Orchiectomy still take ATD Medication?
I’ve been told that I will be on ATD meds for life, I’m 63 and have been taking Lupron and Zytiga for going on two years. I asked my MO about Orchiectomy and he said if I did it he would still recommend Lupron. Can you guys please share your thoughts and experiences? Thank you in advance

anticoagulation fear
Hi! I started on anticoagulation in August. I started with apixaban 5 mg twice a day. I got very bad intermittent chest pains that worried me from the medicine that I never had before. Then I got gastritis. the doctor switched me to half dose to see if I could tolerate that and the same thing happened

Update on NOT a UTI
Hi, just to update. I had the cystoscopy this morning, not a pleasant experience, but no cancer, no inflammation and no gritty substance, so that at least is good. She did say some people's kidneys do just excrete microscopic blood particles as their normal, but that I possibly have overactive bladder

Firmagon vs Lupron
So, the question is what are the up or downs if switching from Firmagon to Lupron. I used Orgovyx until it didn't work, switched to Firmagon. Wanted either due to family history with heart issues. Dad, uncle's, brothers, all having issues. One brother recently having a major HA... But the convenience

Saline nasal rinse and glaucoma
I suffer with allergies and used to use steroid nasal spray. Now I have glaucoma I now know that these sprays are bad news! I've been looking into saline nasal rinse kits as an alternative to help me with the chronic catarrh in my throat but can't see any information about if these are safe to use for

edoxaban or rivaroxaban?
I have been on Lixiana (Edoxaban) since my AF diagnosis just over two years ago and have had no issues at all with it. After my last request for a repeat prescription I got a phone call today from the doctor saying that the blood test I had last August (!) revealed a slight decrease in kidney function

Not a UTI
Thinking I had picked up a UTI (strange feeling in bladder area and frequent feeling of needing to urinate) I requested a urine test, which was done.

Aching face
Diagnosed with PMR in March 2023. Started on 15mg Prednisolone and got down to 12mg in July but not able to go down further. Pred relieved most of my symptoms and allowed me to lead an almost normal life with not too many side effects. Since then, I seem to have gone backwards and had to return to 15mg

What to expect after stopping bisoprolol?
Hello. After a meet up with cardiologist, I was advised to stop the bisoprolol 1,25mg which I take daily. The reason I did a meet up is my daily anxiety, bradycardia (40s in rest) and dizziness. I need to continue with propafenone (anti arrhythmic) and currently waiting for an ablation date. My blood
