Not feeling that great on Armour Thyroid
Hi ...I started taking Armour Thyroid a few months back and these are my latest blood test results. I haven't been feeling that great on it as yet. My dry cracked heels getting worse, falling asleep very early evening etc. After this blood test I started to add a little Levothyroxine daily (around 20mcg

BC Which Hospital Update _ and eyesl
I got a call saying I could go into local hospital for my flexy cystoscopy There is a 25 mile difference. My last rigid cystoscopy showed that 5 out of 6 biopsies was low grade, hence the flexy cystoscopy.. I have not long ago finished my 3 x BCG infusions - Have they worked, my flexy cystoscopy

Olaparib hasn’t worked for me . Anyone had this happen and had success with another PARP?
Hi everyone, I’m back of Chemo for 3rd line, this time with Carbo and Caelyx. This is just a year after 1st recurrence, Chemo reduced cancer to nearly NED, 7 months of Olaparib and then CT scan showed new tumour on spleen. CA125 36. Oncologist mentioned later trying another PARP possibly Rucaparib

ATM gene mutation
I just received results from genetic testing that I have a ATM gene mutation. I am currently not on any meds and my last PSMA pet scan was negation. I am scheduled for a follow up PSA test mid march based on rising PSA after 5 years undetectable. Based on the ATM finding will this change any future therapy

Not about PCa but interesting: GLP-1 Receptor Agonists help with colorectal cancer
"A research letter recently published in JAMA Oncology has provided some promising insights into the potential of Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) in lowering the risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) among patients with type 2 diabetes. The study involved a national retrospective analysis

Which Treatment for These Biopsy Results?
I now have my biopsy results Gleason 3 + 4 ie 90% of 3 and 10% of 4 Grade 2 The consultant said it was Intermediate but at one point used the term Low intermediate. Is this latter term valid given the stats? T2a NO MO - but I am puzzled about this because although it was mostly all on the left side

psoas Muscle Tumors
my OVCA metastasized to my Psoas muscle 6 years after preliminary OVCA diagnosis. Various chemo and immunotherapy are helping keep it contained. Has anyone had surgery for removal of a psoas tumor? I’d love to hear from you. Thank you.

What is the next step
I have one more Immunotherapy for my bladder cancer, so far all scan have shown no metastasis. Now I need to focus on my PC after more than a year of ignoring it. My PSA has been fluctuating and is now 0.65, doubling time is 16 months, I have not had ADT yet and my MO wants to just wait and watch. What

Important caveat regarding estrogen therapy
Prof. Richard Wassersug tells me that estrogen therapy may be contraindicated if you have a BRCA 1 or 2 gene mutation. You can get a free, saliva germline genetic test of 30 genes from Color, Inc. as part of the PROMISE registry.

nephrectomy
hi I’m just after a bit of advice I had my right kidney removed 4 weeks ago it was removed robotically and took over 7 hours due to the size of a non cancerous tumour. I had 4 small incisions and one large one lower down which is quite big! My tummy is still very swollen and sore. Is this normal? I

Short-term vs Long-Term ADT for High Risk Men
Here's a review of a recent presentation at ASCO 2023 by Artera.ai regarding the use of Artificial Intelligence analysis of biopsy slides to predict which high-risk men do or don't benefit from short-term ADT vs long-term ADT. Their findings are summarized here: [i]"Based on these results, it appears

Lactose intolerant
I am changing from Armour Thyroid to synthetic T4 and T3, due to cost and that a local Endo has agreed to this on the NHS. However I’m super sensitive to lactose and the hospital pharmacy are dithering about finding lactose free options. Does anyone know which brands are lactose free please?

First blood test after starting Peg 17/12/2023
Hi, Blood test from 28/12/2023 Platelets down to 427 (previous 580, 560, 504). Elevated Potassium 5.4 and ALT 96. I guess Peg has elevated ALT?? My next FU is March 14th. I’m really hoping I don’t have to increase Peg which is currently 45 weekly.

Mutations
I am on Orserdu (elacestrant) for a ESR1 mutation and feeling great but my CA27-29 tumor marker numbers continue to rise. Prior to this medication I was on Capecitabine for a PIC3 mutation and prior to that Piqray. Does any one know what meds work to target both mutations simultaneously?

new model for bone marrow behavior is a hope for finding bone metastasis remedies!
”What results were found from your investigation? It did mimic the effects that we see in the clinical scenario. It has been exciting. The other nice thing about this model is it doesn't have to only be utilized for bone sarcomas and creates the microenvironment from which a bone sarcoma might arise
