Has anyone done the proton therapy?
Just curious if anyone had their MO suggest doing the proton therapy? When I have my discussion with my new MO, I want to ask if proton therapy would be a fit for myself. I have to deal with the prostate cancer and the met pelvic lymph nodes as well as the met bone issue.

Suboxone/oxy update
After feeling poorly with joint and muscle pain, I decided to go off suboxone and back to oxy as an experiment. Disaster! although before suboxone, I had been easily comfy on 5 mg of oxycodone 2 to 2 times a day (albeit with breakthrough RLS in the middle of the night), this was no longer the case

Protein deficiency and B12?
A couple weeks ago, suspecting that I was getting less than the recommended amount of
protein
, I began taking a
whey
protein
supplement. I felt better immediately, but then the old persistent symptoms (brain fog, headache, generally feeling ill) returned, reappearing some days but not others.

I’m confused 😕
Isn’t the serum C reactive protein meant to be raised when we have an autoimmune disease like hashimotos? mine isn’t 🤔 Or is it just the TPO that is raised? Thanks in advance for any help with this…

Hi, I'm not sure if this is the right place to post, but im looking for some advice please.

private testing
hi all, I hope you’re well. I’d like to ask about the finger prick home tests that Blue Horizon offers. How are they able to check all of the below markers with such a small blood sample? I’m aware that containers are super small and they claim to be testing a lot: Inclusions: TSH, FT4, FT3, TT4

An Eventful January Update - Pacemaker Delayed
Hello, I could sense trouble brewing last Friday when one of my knees became inflamed to the point I could barely walk over the weekend. All the signs are that it's gout, first time for my knee and it hurt's like hell. Had the replacement Pacemaker Pre-op this morning, INR was at 4.4, when the Consultant

My Last (IFN) Dose, my Fateful Decision One Year Ago
This is a long and not cheerful post, I understand if you don’t wish to wade fully or at all thru it. Sections are marked for easy reference. The thoughts are my opinions only. -- I wrote a few months ago on my botched flu vax anniversary. Today is the one year mark for my Last Dose of Besremi

Pea protein
Has anyone used pea
protein
powder? I can’t use
whey
as it’s derived from milk and I’m lactose intolerant. Thought I’d try pea protein instead as I need to gain weight and gaining muscle mass is the best way.

Lupron unjection not reducing PSA

Anyone had IgG food intolerance tested and successfully eliminated the offenders?
My IgG test shows that I have moderate reaction to cow's milk,
whey
protein
, egg white, brazil nuts and peanuts, and soy bean (and it's derivatives), so planning to eliminate these things from my diet for at least 3 months to see if it makes any difference.

BCF after 9 years post proton therapy
My PSA had been increasing slowly since my nadir of .75 in 2017 reaching 1.19 in 2022. Both RO and Uro weren't terribly concerned. I wanted PSMA after 3rd consecutive increase but both recommended a wait and see approach, especially the RO who seems honor bound to wait for 2.0 over nadir. I skipped

Side Effects Damaging Kidneys and Liver
Hi All, I am in Florida, USA. I am a 70 year old female, diagnosed with RA in 2021. I have been on Meloxicam, Methotrexate, Sulfasalazine, and most recently Leflunomide, as well as Prednisone. None of the meds put me into remission. At best I had a 70% reduction in symptoms. I was taken off Methotrexate
