Goat whey, casein, IGF-1 etc. - Do they promote or slow cancer growth?
I've been trying for many years to decide whether to take a protein powder supplement to help maintain muscle mass. Since I started on ADT in 2016, I've lost 30 pounds. I don't know how much is due to the ADT, and how much is due to my diet. I'm 172 pounds now. I was muscular and athletic at 202,

Asking employer for accommodations - yes, no, maybe?
Quick background:BCRed about 2.5 years after adjuvant RT to prostatic bed after RARP. Started Firmagon in May 2022 after nothing seen on PSMA PET/CT with PSA at 0.4. Switched to Orgovyx in November since injection site reaction was compromising QoL. Just before BCR was detected, I started taking adderall

testosterone boosters after ADT?
I finished SBRT in September and a six month course of ADT in March. I asked my endocrinologist about zinc and Vitamin D to aid T recovery, and he said it probably wouldn’t help, but won’t hurt anything. I saw some “testosterone support” from Wieder at the store and am considering it. It augments

Right Bundle Branch Block(RBBB)
I have now added a Cardiologist to my list of doctors. During a pre-op checkup for surgery on my Left knee, It was discovered that I have a complete RBBB. My research shows that Eligard/ ADT can be a possible cause. Is anyone else dealing with this? I have an Echocardiogram set for this coming Tuesday

ART Long-Term Mortality Low Regardless of Treatment in Local Prostate Cancer
Amazing! The headline states that there is ‘low’ mortality regardless of treatment for local PCa…really? Well, that did not make me feel very good as I opted for treatment! RP, followed by ADT for 6 months, followed by IMRT sRT, followed by 15 months of ADT post treatment…I was not feeling so good
