What to do next for treatment
I have prostate cancer which started over 3 years ago, I did chemo and lupron which seemed to work great for couple of years then PSA started going up like to 122. I must mention that I have the BRCA 2 gene which makes my cancer somewhat aggressive. My onc put me on Xtandi which worked for 7-8 mos but

**UPDATE** Bloods: consistent low sodium levels (Bit freaked out!)
MY QUESTIONS... * can anyone reassure me about the low
sodium
levels - do you have this too and it's simply a thyroid thing?

The Strengths and Keys of my Recovery
I had to keep my
sodium
intake under 1500mg/day. I did/do. No red meat. Don't even miss it. I also have no more than 2oz of any protein at a sitting. I eat 0% fat Greek yoghurt and unsalted peanut butter. I eat loads of fruit and veg. heavy on the veg for sure.

Hi everyone my husband takes warfarin & we are going to my daughters for Xmas we are stuck on a starter for him & don't want him to feel excluded ( he doesn't like fish shell fish or mushrooms) he also needs to be careful of

I'm confused - am I recovering?
It was almost 9 months ago I took two shots of liquid Flucloaxillin and got the worst case of post infectious Ibs. I'm actually under the belief that I had c-diff as after 3 weeks after taking the two little doses I had water coming out. I was petrified and horrified especially seeing as I was doing

Xofigo (Radium 223) to take with anything else as PSA levels have rocketed since coming off hormone treatment?
My father is hormone resistant and been fighting prostate cancer since 2013. He is 82, a recent scan showed his cancer hasn't spread to organs so has been approved to try Radium 223. His PSA levels have rocketed to 400 which is higher than when he had been on any hormone treatment, which he was taken

I think we often feel lost and alone when our symptoms flare and no one to turn to. This series has been comforting and offers us hope because these doctors who are also biochemists or microbiologists are trying to find ways to help us in this journey and search for our best life. https://supplementsrevealed.com

Bowels misbehaving!
sorry for the delicate nature of this post! I finished chemo 5 weeks ago, all through cycle 5 & 6 I had diarrhoea and unfortunately it has continued. My recent scan was clear so my hospital are not overly concerned, they were pleased that Imodium works very well, but I can't take it for ever! can I?
