TSH 3.88
Hi My recent blood test result showed my TSH is 3.88 and the receptionist said the doctor had left a note saying “tell patient normal” (which is what they always say). My question is…is it normal? I had a partial thyroidectomy in 2001 and have been on thyroxine ever since. Lately I’ve been struggling

Inflammation still not contained
The preds and MTX 10mg (with folic acid) were only working properly for the first week at the 20mg preds my GP initially put me on on 27 November. A week later, actually the morning that i saw Rheumatologist, i made the mistake of dropping too quickly and drastically down to 15mg, as i was feeling

Clinical trials?
At the oncology appointment yesterday my husband was given what I believe is an amazing opportunity, he has the option of starting standard care ( immunotherapy pembrolizumab ) or participating in clinical trials where they will be also adding a second drug for a two pronged approach. Whilst I know

Keynote 365 Trial
Hey fellas, Seeing my MO tomorrow about enrolling in the Keynote 365 clinical trial with Keytruda in combination with another drug. Has anybody had any experience with Keytruda? Did it work for you?

Questions for those currently on or have tried Olaparib or Rucaparib PARP inhibitors. Recently published study on Rucaparib.
For those of you who have tried or are on PARP inhibitors, which one did you use and at what point did you use them? Was it before chemo or after chemo? Did insurance cover the cost? Looking at the NCCN guidelines, which my husband's MO refers to often, they suggest Olaparib (Lynparrza) before chemo

Long Journey
Hey Guys, I don’t post on here often and I’m afraid this will be a long post. I have had PCa over 18 years. Started with casodex, Lupron. A few months later, brachytherapy then 42 sessions of EBRT. Over the years PSA would rise, and I would be put on Lupron for 18-24 months. In 2017, PSA started rising

Hip Replacement while on treatment??
My husband, who is in a Clinical Trial at MDA for Richter's, needs a hip replacement badly - such that his severe arthritis is a bigger deal to his quality of life than the Richter's. He saw an orthopedic pain management specialist last week who had nothing to offer, stating that a steroid injection

Still preclinical so don't get too excited: Lu-177 Lu-lbu-DAB-PSMA works better than Lu-177-PSMA-617
From Sweden with love...and hopefully with a clinical trial soon "The data of this study demonstrated a significant therapeutic advantage of [Lu-177]Lu-Ibu-DAB-PSMA over [Lu-177]Lu-PSMA-617 and a more favorable safety profile as compared to that of [Lu-177]Lu-PSMA-ALB-56.

Insulin resistant & query about blood results
Good afternoon, Please can someone advise if my bloods are acceptable. I had to nag doctor to increase my dose from 125 to 150mg and now fear although I am starting to feel better in myself that they will reduce dose down again when I see them my blood sugars are also out of range - a clinical trial

No more multiple PVCs after daily sauna
I am a 58 years old male. I went into cardiac arrest almost 2 years ago when I was rapid afib. I now have a pacemaker defibrilator. Thanks to my diet,rich in potassium and magnesium, I have been afib free most of the time. Though at times I still had multiple PVC's, bigeminy usually at lunch time.

Ablation update and reassurances.

Well, lo and behold, went into NSR on the 6th and been afib free since. I have a follow

Benefits of Sacc. Boulardii probiotic
Just wondering whether to reorder my sacc. boulardii which I bought originally to combat candida, and on googling saw it's also relevant to PD - thought I'd share for those who missed this July study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36708254/ 'Mitochondrial impairment is a hallmark feature of neurodegenerative
