Looking for support - glioblastoma
Also melatonin and
vitamin
D
. It's basically 2 months post-biopsy and overall she is doing fine. There are mood swings, issues in understanding time (how much time has transpired, sense of urgency, etc.) and the biggest issue is aphasia.

not done but I take a high dose daily of this so I suspect fine. He suggests my symptoms are not thyroid related or pituitary. And low level hormones are my norm. I’ve only been feeling symptomatic since June time. So I guess I need have other investigations.

PTH and aggressive PCa? I need guidance
Hello, everyone! I can really use some guidance. My husband’s PTH (Parathyroid hormone) has been elevated since his Dx (pre & post treatments) Being that his blood calcium is at normal levels, his MO ruled out Secondary Hyperparathyroidism, and moved on. But that never sat right with me. Why the elevated

Vitamin D
The problem in the winter months is that synthesis is often inadequate due to lack of UVB radiation and it’s not possible to achieve sufficient levels of
vitamin
D
through diet alone.

Alendronic Acid
It has been recommended that I take Alendronic Acid to protect my bones whilst taking Prednisone as I now have Osteoporosis. To be honest given the potential horrendous side effects of Alendronic Acid which on top of those of taking Prednisone and of course the impact of having GCA I am reluctant to
