Hi everyone, my Dad’s PSA at the end of 2023 was 0.008. This year (2024), PSA had some fluctuations: 0.024, 0.029, 0.026, 0.025. PSMA Pet showed one small spot on the rib which was radiated by Dr. Kishan at UCLA. After SBRT, PSA was 0.015, and then in August was 0.022. He started having pain recently

Super interesting N=1 case study from the PSMA experts in Germany. Like me, you've probably never heard of transketolase or why you would even want to inhibit it.

Hi This post isn’t about me (a recovering alcoholic, sober 3.5yrs!) but my completely normal, low level of alcohol intake, partner! He had some bloods run as part of a routine check up for his age (46) and they’ve had him back in for full LFTs / scan next week as his ALP was 139.. When I say normal

A recent blood test shows that my Phosphate is slightly below range (see attached photo). My daily diet consists of eggs, chicken, milk and fish. I also supplement magnesium, Vit D, Vit C, Selenium and a few others to support my thyroid as I am currently on Levothyroxine.

Hi All My husband had a liver transplant in 2017 and has been mostly well since. He had NASH cirrhosis and liver cancer.

At my recent six monthly blood test, my phosphate levels had dropped and they are now below range. The trend for this has been dropping over the last year.

Phosphate-test to detect an emergency. No need to supplement. Homosistein-Just to check if I need to start betaine again. B6-Test for toxicity. Better done by symptoms. Vitamin D-Check and try for midrange. This is what I got so far. Any suggestions or comments?

Homocysteine Nutrients https://www.seekinghealth.com/products/homocysteine-nutrients I really like the sound of this product but I’m concerned about the B vitamins that are missing, namely B3 and B1. It also doesn’t have inositol, choline or biotin, although I don’t know how important they

I found Arty-fact's post on hyperparathyroidism enlightening, as I'd never heard of a connection between HPT and PD. Looking for studies on the subject, I was surprised to learn of a possible connection with restless leg syndrome too, and thought those with this affliction might want to read this paper
