New study just out (3/31/23) on natural therapies for tau aggregation (PSP included)
My father was recently diagnosed with PSP and I have been researching like crazy. I searched all 125 clinical trials on the Government website and all the pubmed articles and studies. This one just came out 3/31/23! It looked at all the studies that have been done on natural supplements, foods, therapies

Next treatment options available for advancing disease
I have completed all scans available to me and they show new metastatic disease throughout my skeleton. PSA @ 4.65 ug/L. The disease continues to advance while being treated with Zoladex and abiraterone. I have switched prednisone for dexamethasone and haven't had an updated blood test yet to see if

Has anyone used a TENS machine to stimulate the Vagus nerve via the ear to reduce Afib?
I have Vagal Afib and recently started using a tens machine on my left ear twice daily for 15 minutes. Applied to the Concha in the ear and the ear lobe to complete the circuit. 20hZ at 200 microseconds, wetting the ear and contacts with some saliva to get a good connection. I discovered 2 months ago

Afib has reared its ugly head again big time, for me.
After years of calm, when I only had an occasional flutter , Afib started again in April following which I had three or four episodes lasting a few hours. On Sunday I was sitting down reading and it started again, expecting it to last just the usual six of seven hours I was still in Af on Tuesday

Spotlight on CLL - Nicole Lamanna, MD Wednesday May 24, 2023 1:00 PM to 2:30 PM EDT- sponsored by LLS- USA but open to all
Unlike other webinars I have posted recently, this should be easy to understand, especially for newly diagnosed and those not familiar with Med-Speak. Dr. Lamanna has a track record of explaining CLL and side effects, with a simple, caring & warm style. - Len - Nicole Lamanna, MD Director, Chronic

Hi, I am 5 1/2 years in remission for twice recurrent endometrial cancer. Currently, I am taking Ibrance and anastrazole, a MBC regimen because my cancer is more like mbc. Most of the research is on breast cancer, and now ovarian cancer. The medications and protocols trickle down to endometrial/uterine

Update
Hola Gents, I have not posted in a while. MO started me on Zytiga; I was off that after 2 weeks. Mid-January I got a UTI. Took a vacay to Aruba. The day I finished antibiotics for the UTI, I tested positive for Covid. Spent 5 days in my hotel room. Just glad I had an ocean view room and a balcony.

3 Years After Stage IV Diagnosis
It was three years ago today that my wonderful, sweet husband was diagnosed with Stage IV prostate cancer. I can still remember the shock when we heard the news. We thought his diagnosis meant he would die soon. We didn't know at the time that if you respond well to treatment you can live years with

NT-proBNP Level query
Trying to line up a few questions for a Cardio call in December and cannot seem to find this bit out. My last Se N-term pro BNP conc result was 444 ng/L, is this the same as pg/mL? It came back as abnormal with normal given as 0-400, I`m 66, so could I have Heart failure as no one has said I have.

Oligometastatic prostate cancer: Reality or figment of imagination?
New paper below, [1] full text. Oligometastatic PCa has been controversial from the start, with some denying that it exists. "If you have one met, you have many - you just can't see them." Then there is the counting problem. One study indicated that a few spinal mets visible on a bone scan were oligometastatic

Am on 10mg daily now, and have taken today's. Heart is still way too fast though - 90-110 resting. Any idea when it should revert to normal?
