Rising PSA 1 year after RALP
I've been getting ultra sensitive PSA tests every three months. These are the last three scores: 0.015 0.017 0.026 (First PSA test after surgery was <0.1) I am worried. Frightened, actually. Margins were not clear on my surgical biopsy, though gleason was only 3+3. Two biopsies prior

change of medication to Atenolol from Bisoprolol
I have been on Bisoprolol for a couple of weeks but I haven’t felt great. I felt tired and foggy most of the time, struggled to get my breath and my feet were freezing. I have spoken to the pharmacist at our surgery and he has changed my medication to Atenolol even though he said Bisoprolol was the preferred

fatigue
I was just changed from monthly blood tests to 6 months and 6 month check ups....the doc said I was stable and there was a good chance i would never need treatment. I am 76 and maybe he thought I would naturally not live that long. Anyway, my concern is this ongoing fatigue that smacks me in the face

Reintroducing gluten for coeliac test?
Hello everyone, After going gluten free in mid-November 2023 I have today had a blood test request come in which involves a coeliac test. I was tested for coeliac in 2017 too (negative) but didn't know I was being tested for it and had been eating strictly low carb for about 2 years at that point

Teeth sensitivity at the dentist
I have been diagnosed with SLE Lupus for a year now. Does anyone find their teeth really sensitive during ordinary dental treatment such as cleaning? I’m also having a problem with the injections to numb the mouth not working . Is this Lupus related or is it just me? Any advice on the problem would

Persistent AF
Hello, for the past couple of years I have had paroxysmal AF which has taken increasingly long times to convert to NSR. The last few have been 22 hours and usually every couple of weeks or so. This time I was quite pleased as I went 22 days without, the longest interval for 18 months. However it's now

🧬UNC93B1 New genetic findings open up perspectives for future therapeutic approaches in Lupus

Hello I messaged on here recently about my symptoms and was recommended to take a private blood test, which I've done. So I'm surprised that they've all come back normal! I screenshot them but not all together. Think I need to now think it is actually not my thyroid, but rheumatoid after all!

Hashimoto advice please
hello, I have had an underactive thyroid and been on Levothyroxine 75mg since 2015. Last November I had a private blood test done as I had been struggling with lots of ‘symptoms’ and wondered if my thyroid could be the cause and it showed I have Hashimoto’s disease which I understand is an autoimmune

Endo gave me private prescription
so, good news! The private Endo appointment went as I’d hoped and he was happy to let me try T3. I’m now trying to source it. I’ve had a no back from a couple of places on the list from Thyroid UK. Thing is, I just wanted to check as on the prescription it says triiodothyronine rather than liothyronine

Moderate Calcification
Good morning all, I was recently invited for a lung check and have been recalled as the scan showed moderate Calcification. As I like to be proactive and believe this is due to fatty diet, are there any recommendations for menus that will halt (improve?) This condition. My brother dies with this condition
