lapararoscopy
I have a complex cyst probably 7.2-7.4cm and have been told that I will need eventual laparascopy. I am back 23rd of July again for another tvultrasound to check how it is. The gynae/surgeon has done watchful waiting with me since my diagnosis as he knows I am a carer for my mum and I have no one else

Sunshiney days.
Should vit D supplements be adjusted when we are out and about in sunshine? Are amino acids worth taking as supplements? All stuff I come across in random readings. Thanks.

How to persuade TSH-obsessed Endo I'm not over-replaced (on T3-only)?
I supplement with iron, B12 ,
vitamin
D
and selenium. My BP is low, my resting heart rate is low 60 bpm. I did struggle with a 19kg weight gain because of insulin resistance, but ditching the gluten and refined carbs solved that and I'm now a healthy weight.

Dr. John Campbell on Vitamin D and Prostate Cancer.
John Campbell discusses a (in his opinion good) meta-analysis of
Vitamin
D
and prostate cancer mortality. According to his assessment of the analysis,
Vitamin
D
reduces all-cause mortality in those with prostate cancer.
