PSA SCREEN VS SYMPTOMATIC
My current PSA test is called PROSTATE SPC AG, SCREEN. My previous PSA test from the same lab was called PROSTATE SPC AG, SYMPTOMATIC. Both labs were off the same order from my MO. Whats the difference?

Parkinson's medications and T3 interactions?
I've been hypothyroid for decades, in recent years self-dosing T3 (split dose - 50 mcg AM, 50 mcg afternoon, 12.5 mcg evening). Recently, I was formally diagnosed with Parkinson's disease (informally undiagnosed for years), and now my doctor put me on gradually increasing doses of a Levodopa/Carbidopa

Sticky blood! A thing or not?
Many years ago my blood tests often had to be repeated at the pathology lab because the first and second samples had set solid in transit before testing. I was told it was because I had sticky blood. Last week I saw a cardiologist who initially wanted me to take blood thinners, but as I only scored 1

B1 Question ( nothing comes easy )
question at the bottom I have been reading everything I could get my hands on that was about vitamin B1 over the last couple years and I tried one B1 100 mg per day for one week about a year ago. It did not help and actually it seemed to make shaking worse. Finally I purchased Daphne Bryan's

Levo - am I worrying too much?
First, best wishes to all for Christmas and the New Year. I have been on Levo 100 for seven or so months now - the Accord brand. I got my new order by post about ten days ago and stupidly didn't open the parcel until Christmas day, when I needed to! They sent me Teva, so I have missed two days so far

Metoprol and arrythmias
Thanks first for all the comments in the past. I have long taken Toprol (now Metoprol in the last few weeks), 16 years, before I was diagnosed with Afib recently. And I noticed, through the years, that, say, ten minutes after taking it, I felt a very brief irregularity that then went away. Do any

Provenge criteria necessary for acceptance.
Apparently Medicare will pay for Provenge provided we are castrate resistant and metastatic. But are there other requirements like certain PSA parameters and lower testosterone levels? Do we have to remain on ADT while being treated with Provenge?

Possible Cure
Hi, I was diagnosed initially 2 years ago as Stage 4 with mets to the bones. Low volume. Gleason 8-9, PSA less than 2 from the onset. I had radiation to the prostate only. After 2 years of Lupron/Zytiga, everything has shrunk or disappeared via PSMA PET. Everything has been good,(but with med

Low heart rate while resting
Hey guys. I'm kinda worried about my resting heart rate. If I'm sitting or laying it can go as low as 48bpm, even in sitting. My range is mostly between 48 and 56/57. As soon as I get up my heart rate also jumps quickly and sometimes I get a bit dizzy for few seconds like you would normally get when

AF and MAD
anyone else have AF and MAD (mitral annular disjunction) . It was picked up during cardiac MRI. The displacement is 5mm, mild mitral valve prolapse and regurgitation. Neither my cardiologist or EP have said anything about it apart from put me on another very long waiting list to see a more specialist

Effects of coenzyme Q10 in early Parkinson disease: evidence of slowing of the functional decline
I've been doing a deep dive on mitochondrial DNA and the electron transport chain of the mitochondrial complex. I tested my mtDNA and I have a deficiency of the supercomplex II and III, this is a defect in the Krebs/TCA (citric acid) cycle. If you're taking statins you might want to reevaluate this

Portable air purifier for outdoor exercise with allergic asthma
It is the peak of spring allergy season here, as well as other great stuff like air pollution. So I just wanted to share the results of today's testing of my wearable air purifier for asthma. I am lucky to have wooded hills out of my door, so I do not have to scare people while walking there. The device

Heart Pain
I wonder if somebody can assist with a question. I'm a 46 year old with a minor mitral valve prolapse. Possible sinus nerve damage on the lower ventricle but minor. I'm not on medication. There is no known 'major' issue or treatment plan suggested by cardiologist. I am very fit with low heart beat. Have
