AF and high blood pressure? May be due to aldosteronism
There's an interesting research where aldosteronism has been associate with AF: https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/923863?src=wnl_edit_tpal&uac=184041MK&impID=2248932&faf=1 Among patients with unexplained AF and high BP, 42% had the signatures of aldosteronism.

SBRT
Regarding SBRT and no spaceoar. Procedure completed today for markers however Spaceoar was tried to be injected but due to prostate space between rectum it was too small a space. Now not sure what to do. RO is considering 28 day IMRT vs SBRT since no protection in place. Incredibly agitated that placement

Recent folate & B12 results: Serum Folate 11.2 ug/L (normal range 3.4 - 12.2). B12 434 ng/L (normal range 211 - 911). 9 days before these results ferritin level test was shown as low: 21 ug/L (normal range 22 - 322). What can I infer from these figures? I don’t know if I should hope for average numbers

BP Meds causing bladder problems?
Hello. Recently I have had my blood pressure readings increased, not certain why, but maybe due to medications. I was taking candesartan 16mgs for a couple of years, then the doctor added plendil. I had a really bad episode where I had to be taken to A & E with BP 250/115 where the room was spinning

Non standard Firmagon dosing effective for 3 months from single injection.
My ongoing one-person trial of non-standard dosing for Firmagon (degarelix) for ADT continues: I'm now 3 months out from a single injection of 120Mg. in abdomen fat. (Not the usual starting dose of 240 mg.) as short term adjuvant ADT for RT to pelvic nodes. Total testosterone level is still castrate

Uloric and AF
Does anybody know whether Uloric would add risk to AF? I have gout and doc wants me to take Uloric to lower uric acid level.

LCHF Dilatory Pattern disturbed briefly -SUGAR LEVEL NOT COMING DOWN .....Afterward!
As an adherent of LCHF diets since 2015 I have been managing my Type 2 condition very satisfactorily. My readings have been around 120 until June 2019. I was trapped into a situation where I was forced to do away with my controlled diets for about a months’ time leaving me with readings around 160

Why have triglycerides gone up?
Hi, I've worked really hard to lose weight and lower my cholesterol, naturally. My numbers are improving, but my triglycerides have gone up. Why would that happen?

When to start ADT for metastatic disease
I was wondering when started ADT and what was the threshold and/or symptoms that made you decide to start? As a little background, I was diagnosed back in June 2008 with Gleason 8 - my PSA was about 4 at the time but had risen quickly. I had robotic surgery in Sept. 2008. Small encapsular extension and

PET PSA etc
Reading some of the recent posts has me thinking again about a couple of issues. So I thought it made sense to ask the group for confirmation, ideas??? Not sure it I mentioned/asked before but... I have started seeing a medical oncologist as recommended on this list. I do like his "take it slow" approach

Racing heart and pounding head with topiramate?
My neurologist put me on 25 mg topiramate for 7 days, then increase to 50 mg. However My head and heart are pounding! Funnythe pharmacist said topiramate doesn't have pemthremine in it! But everything I read says it does! I stopped it. Pharmacist said to cut it in half. I think I'll do every other day
