T level test
Having my first PSA test since IMRT in a few weeks. (last ADT/Lupron was early February. 90 day. Salvage IMRT Radiation ended Early January. Is there a reason my doc didn't order T level test to coincide with the PSA? Seems like you would track increases or Nadirs etc, having them tested the same time

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,

Five Common Supplements That Have Shown Benefit In Glioblastoma Studies
Moreover, the ratio of Bax/Bcl-2 was upregulated in the
group
of combination
therapy
with berberine and cisplatin than that with monotherapy alone. Transwell assay data showed that berberine in combination with cisplatin significantly decreased cell migratory ability of MCF-7 cells.

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

advice/opinions please
over the last few years my TSH has always been outside reference range. The GP has normally said borderline. They have usually been 4.5 and higher but less than 10. Last year in March was 5.3, borderline. Then I had a repeat in June 2022 and it came back as 3.4 no further action which was highly unusual
