Rising PSA from .25 12/14/2017 to .47 3/14/2018; should I be alarmed? See my urologist 3/19 and what to know what questions to ask.
Previously had radical prostatectomy, 39 salvage radiation treatments, and now on ADT (wonderful Eligard).

Feeling totally confused
I wonder if anyone could offer any advice? I’ve always had pretty heavy periods but they were fairly regular. I have an almost 10 year old but came off the pill 7 years ago to ttc number 2 - never had any success but was diagnosed with “unexplained secondary infertility”. Fast forward to last summer

Using cannabis for RLS
I'm a long term sufferer of RLS. Mine comes on in the evening when I'm trying to relax after a long day. I've never sought out any medication.
