Underactive thyroid
Hi, my thyroid levels have been up and down recently. I've been on 125mcg and felt fine until the GP decided, after a blood test, to lower the dose. The dosage I need isn't available so I'm now on 100mcg for 5 days and then 112mcg for 2 days. Is this an ok thing to do? Thanks.

Common drug restores youthful function to clean up aging brains
A drug used to induce labor in pregnant women has been shown to reactivate tiny waste-clearing pumps in the brains of old mice.
The finding could hold promise as a new way to fight Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases and overall cognitive decline.

Thursday's Thoughts
I always try to chat about something I feel is important for everyone to know about. Today I want to go to something very basic - your Urso dosage.
1. Urso is the proven first line treatment for PBC and should be started as soon as PBC is suspected
2. The dose is

Need Advice
I recently completed 23 radiation treatments of EBRT at Cedars Siani in LA for recurrent prostate Cancer. The cancer was in a lymph node near the prostate gland. My RO has informed me that we will check PSA in November to see if the treatments were successful. I mentioned doing a PSMA Pet Scan in addition

ELF score
My husband is a 44M, 6'1, 20.5 stone (was 21.5st, recently lost a stone in a couple of months). He'd been feeling off since beginning of the year. Began getting neck and shoulder pain, saying he must have slept wrong but it's happening far too frequently for that to be the case. I did a urine dipstick

low cortisol
hello, I’ve repeatedly had lowish 9am cortisol (around 250ish mark) but passed SST. However, private endo has said he wants to trial a low dose of hydrocortisone to see if it helps my symptoms of chronic fatigue, headaches, muscle aches etc. etc. I’m nervous to trial a steroid when I don’t have Addison

Adrenal glands and reflexology
I’ve just had an amazing experience at a reflexology appointment (on a holiday with my Mum). At the end of the session the therapist asked to look something up and then said ‘you’ve got a blockage in your adrenal glands’. I hadn’t mentioned anything about steroids or adrenals before and she said it

Regulated Induced Proximity Targeting Chimeras (RIPTAC) therapies are designed to target major solid tumours (as prostate and breast cancer)
My head is going to explode...ok, we also have RIPTACs now, I hope they work! Always been a fan of Halan Halda since I was a little kid watching M.A.S.H. (you will understand this "joke" later) Regulated Induced Proximity Targeting Chimera (RIPTAC) is a groundbreaking new technique to selectively target

Neuroendocrine cancer % in APC patients is not rare, it’s becoming common.
How do we help men, on this site, to reduce their chances of getting NEPC? I did a PSMA PET scan today. My blood tests looked pretty normal with psa at .5 and other tested looking like they usually do, except for blood glucose, which is normally in the 93-99 range for the past five years, but was 76

liver enzymes
I was overweight and drinking had high liver enzymes ast/alt ratio .5. I lost weight and stopped drinking enzymes returned to normal in 6-8 weeks. Was diagnosed with nafld as the probable cause. Does returning liver enzymes mean it is resolved

My Dad diagnosed September 11th 2023. PSA was highest at 3.71. He had 6 doses Doxetaxel that were completed in January of 2024. Currently taking Zytiga daily and lupron infections. PSA still 0.01. In June of this year the pain started really bothering him. Hard to walk. MRIs to both hips showed bone

Can PSMA-PET scan be used off label?
I have a friend who has had multiple MRIs and biopsies to locate his presumed prostate cancer. His PSA is high, around 20 but fluctuates and this has gone on for a number of years. He had antibiotic therapy but this did not make any difference. I was wondering if a doctor would prescribe a PET/ PSMA
