Having an op and NHS freaking out about suppressed TSH
I am having a very minor op under general anaesthetic and NHS have revealed suppressed TSH (0.024). They are basically refusing to operate until I get a Dr to say this is ok in the presence of normal T3 (5.2) and T4 (14.8). The problem is I self medicate with levothyroxine (50mcg daily) and one grain

Second Opinion
Guys, I live in the Greater Cincinnati area and am seeking a second opinion regarding my treatment plan for my Advanced Prostate Cancer. I have been on ADT for 18 months. I started Eligard injections and Xtandi. However, I had a number of cardiac events including a mild heart attack and went off

T3 / NDT
Hi - I'm 39 and have had hashimotos / under active thyroid for 10+ years. I have suffered from 3 miscarriages recently + had 2 poor quality / outcome IVF egg retrievals. I'm on 100mg of levothyroxine, TSH is in range (around 2) but T3 is really at the bottom of the range. I don't think I'm converting

Anyone out there in south Essex recently had NDT removed by their endocrinologist
I'd like to contact anyone else in the same area and situation as myself as I have recently had my NHS Armour prescription removedly a new endocrinologist. Please pm me if you're in this boat. I need T3 and it seems I may get Levo + Lio - anyone taking this instead of NDT with success? I am so scared

PSA drop after ADT
My PSA went from 14.9 ug/l in May to 5.9 ug/l in June to 0.24 ug/l when tested 2 days ago after Lupron injection 3 months ago. Naturally I'm very relieved over the drop.My oncologist has pretty much left the decision to me on the ADT duration. I had earlier voiced my reservation about ADT on account

ADT and Headaches
To all, I may have mentioned it before, but I've had low-level but disruptive headaches since I started ADT along with low RBC/Hemoglobin/Hematocrit. Also as a diabetic, I've been on metformin for many years, thus depleting my B12 levels. I've talked to my doctors about this, and the only solution

Barcelona PC Docs
I am looking for a recommendation of a good prostate cancer doctor and facility in Barcelona. I am finishing up two years or ADT (Lupron and Xtandi) after RALP and radiation and want to spend some time there. Monitoring and maintenance mode. Any thoughts?

NDT, Stress, Heart Palps - Now What?
Hi All, I switched to NDT from levo around a month ago. I started to feel better on NDT right away and my TSH dropped from 3.1 to 0.7 within just 2 weeks. My Ts were still balancing - T4 was right at the bottom and T3 was only 24% through the range. I supplement with all the key nutrients and keep

Lu177 Long Term Survival
Does anyone have long term survival figures for Lu177 treatment? Is is a one time thing or can it be repeated? Is it easier on the body than ADT? Thanks everyone.

ED no more
My case is unusual in as much as I was diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer four years ago. A bone scan identified many areas where I had bone mets, even one between my shoulder blades on my spine that looked like structural surgery was inevitable. My PSA topped 1000 and I had zero treatments of any

TURP and Prostatectomy
I am looking at a prostatectomy, but I had a TURP 8 yrs ago. How does this change the risk factors and my potential quality of life for a prostatectomy? If I did radiation therapy, they would like me to have another TURP to remove some of the prostate that is growing into the bladder before starting
