Blood Tests & what to track
So my MO does frequent CMP, CBC, Diff, Testosterone, PSA as I'm doing chemo. Seeing my PCP soon and wondering about other lab tests to ask him to order. I was thinking Vit. D, B vits., lipids, A1C (done by MO when 1st saw her in April), Ferritin (as my hematocrit, hemoglobin & RBC count is slowly decreasing

Raised Parathyroid Levels
Hi Back at the end of June I had a lot of bloods taken,one of these included electrolytes. My calcium levels,both actual and adjusted came back as below range. 2.1 on a range of 2.2-.26. However my surgery didn't pursue it even though I queried it. I've had a lot of health issues since last autumn

Anyone Else Used Livi For GP Services
Hi First off I'm not getting paid to endorse Livi lol but I've used it a few times when my own surgery has been AWOL. The last two female GP's I consulted have been especially good. These have been non thyroid issues, one one did notice my calcium levels were too low, which my own surgery had

Optimizing Bone Health in Prostate Cancer
I believe this to be a very good resource for an important concern for all men with any type of PCa. [u]
The statistics are somewhat staggering, and apparently a great many Docs are giving this topic too brief a mention during consults.

Calcium Issues
Hi! Anytime I’ve tried taking calcium in the past, it gives me headaches and brain fog. Has anyone experienced this, and does anyone have any recommendations of which kind worked for you? Thanks!

Diagnosed with osteoporosis after 9 years on warfarin
I was originally diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2018, but probably had it for 5 or more years before that. After an aortic valve replacement in 2013 with the On-X valve, I was prescribed warfarin. Studies link warfarin to osteoporosis, In Oct. 2021, I started on Orgovyx. I recently had a Vit. D serum

Fosamax While Taking Pred
My Rheumy told me I need to take Fosamax to prevent Osteoporosis while I'm taking Prednisone. Do others take this or just take Calcium, Vitamin D3, Vitamin K2 Supplements?
