Early Dutasteride Monotherapy in Patients With Elevated PSA Following Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy
Interesting new study (off-topic for most of us) [1]. "We retrospectively analyzed RARP patients whose pathological stage is T2a to T3b without lymph node or distant metastasis from 2007 to 2017. All patients received a daily dose of 0.5 mg of dutasteride {Avodart} when post-RARP {Robot-Assisted Radical

Methotrexate and folic acid dose
Hi I've been injecting 15mg of MXT each week for 5 months (shortly increasing to 17.5). I take 5mg folic acid 6 days per week. BUT I've been taking a combined Vit B tablet daily for as long as I can remember (before diagnosis and MXT) and have only just seen that it contains 400ug of folic acid - so

Alternative Therapies
I'm new here. My radical prostatectomy took place in March 2017; in August 2018 I had an artificial urinary sphincter implanted to help with incontinence issues. Are there alternative treatments like acupuncture or CBD ointments that could help (1) overactive bladder; or (2) diminished libido? Could

Efficacy of Radium-223 in Bone-Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer With and Without Homologous Repair Gene Defects
This is another small-sample piece on radionuclides and Homologous Repair Defects. Dr. Sartor also made an additional comment on this piece right here. I'm hoping to see genetic profiling becoming a standard procedure for all cancer patients. "TAKE-HOME MESSAGE Somatic tumor and germline DNA testing

Detectible PSA two years after RP
I had a radical prostatectomy in June of 2017. I had several different Gleason numbers from the biopsy prior to surgery. The highest Gleason number was 7. My PSA was 23 prior to the biopsy. Surgery was successful and margins were clear at the post biopsy. I had my 2 year check up last month and

Graves’ Disease and the Manifestations of Thyrotoxicosis DeGroot LJ. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK285567/ LIPIDS The serum cholesterol level is depressed in thyrotoxicosis.

Docetaxel treatment update
I thought it would be interesting to share results from my first 5 sessions of chemo and maybe get some thoughts. Cycle 1, 2, 4 and 5 have been mainly low impact from side effects, fatigue is always tough through days 3-7 but after a week the energy comes back. I've hopefully mitigated any neuropathy

Success Thyroid Story
Hi! I promised myself that I would come back and write here if I managed to "naturally" put my thyroid levels and my Hashimoto’s back in their place, in case it could help someone else fix theirs. My TSH levels are now perfect and my Hashimoto's is pretty much in remission as my antibodies are pretty

Has anyone tried an osteopath for rigid shoulders and loss of dexterity in your hands?
One of my husband’s most annoying problem for him is the loss of dexterity meaning he struggles with buttons, his fly, and going a whole night playing bridge as his hands wear out. Has anyone had this problem and tried using an osteopath or chiropractor and has it helped? We’ve tried the vitamin solutions

He has exhausted the majority of treatments. He has castration-resistant prostate cancer with progression despite abiraterone
