PSMA PET Scan - Help Interpreting Report?
Hello, My husband had his first PSMA PET scan done today, and I am hoping someone who understands PSMA PET reports can help us interpret/understand the results as well as what to expect or ask for in terms of any further testing and/or treatment? My profile is updated with his history, but in a nutshell

BTA and 'T3 does not cross the placenta'
The BTA guidelines on liothyronine state 'T3 does not cross the placenta'. There is some truth in this in that type 3 deiodinase (D3) in placenta converts T3 to T2. However, they fail to point out that D3 also converts T4 to rT3. The transport of T3 and T4 across the placenta is very complex but the

About to commence my treatment BUT now not sure - HELP
Hi All. So I have decided to start ADT for 6 months which will be followed by 20 sessions of IMRT and Brachy Boost in June 2024 and finishing off with another 6 - 12 months of ADT. I was ok with going down this path as was my RO and then someone said to me, "Why put yourself through 18 months of hell

HRT and Lupus
I’m 44 and have just been diagnosed with lupus and sjogrens in the last couple of months- there’s an awful lot to Learn. My GP thought my joint pain and anxiety was perimenopause related, and I was prescribed Evorel patches but after a month the pain was increasing rather than decreasing and autoimmune

NovoThor
Has anyone tried or have any knowledge of NovoThor PBM Therapy light beds? A friend saw a leaflet in a waiting room recently, so I’ve done a bit of research and it looks very interesting and if the stats are true good be very helpful for fibromyalgia sufferers, no mention of cost though!

Docataxel
My MO is advising Chemotherapy since I am Mcrp. . The MO said that no Adt will work . I have been reading that most people take Adt along with Docataxcel. I would love to prolong my life. I have concerns about QOL and what are the percentages of this treatment working with and without ADT? Thank

Treatment for perimenopausal symptoms and PBC
Hi, A year ago I had my first bout of very strange and severe anxiety and depression linked to perimenopause. I am 48. A blood test showed my oestrogen level had significantly dropped. After a couple of months I seemed to re-stabilise and didn’t need HRT. I had been taking a supplement, recommended by

HRT question. Sorry, totally off topic but I need an answer quickly!
Oh cripes! I started HRT 8 days ago. (Estrogen patches and utrogestan). I'm on cycle day 21 and I've started my period this evening. What do I do now?! Do I carry on taking utrogestan until I've completed 2 weeks?
