Constipation
Hi helpful community. I am on 40 mg or prednisone for CGA, tapering down to 35 in 2 days for 2 weeks. I am suffering from constipation. Is it due to the prednisone or the Calcium supplements (600 mg x 2 per day)? I take Miralax (Restorolax) every couple of days. then I take mineral oil for couple

The bulk of the article follows: The medical community is generally unaware of the benefit of a low oxalate diet for treatment of RLS. In 2015, after 5 years of closely

Post triple therapy options?
This past summer, I wrote because my husband's PSA numbers started doubling very quickly. (see quick recap below) By the time we got the PSMA PET scan a few weeks later, there were too many tumors in the bones to count. We jumped into triple therapy: Eligard, Nubeqa, and chemo. David's last chemo (6

To Trial or not to Trial?
I have decided not to trial. Going to just do the Venetaclax & Obin protocol. I’m just not in the mood for the extra appointments and brain damage that invariably comes with them. I’m waiting for a start date. Had the bone marrow biopsy and endless other tests this week - decided not to peek at the

Dairy (including milk, kefir, yogurt etc.) actually increases bone fractures?
Many doctors and articles seem to tout dairy for the calcium to help build bone density, yet I am reading more articles that seem to reinforce the studies which find that not only does it not help, it is actually detrimental and increases risk of fracture and even Parkinsons disease. Anyone else?

Test results
Hi I've just had a range of bloods done by my Gp as I'm feeling so tired and keep falling a sleep during the day. They all look OK apart from low end for calcium and my ggt liver one. Which could be because of antibiotics I'm permanently on for my cuti or my gallbladder which I'm waiting to be removed

Slightly odd blood results
I seem to have a slightly raised adjusted calcium of 2.56 mmol/L after a blood test which is up from my usual 2.4mmol/L. I only take 1000mg vitamin D and 100mcg of K2 my level of serum vitamin D has been around 130 mmol/L for a while. I’m one year into Zoladex after RT for Gleason 9 localised PCa with

Will lowering T3 dose raise TSH?
I have been treated for hypothyroidism for the last 51 years, since the birth of my first child. For 12 years, T3 only, for 18 years T4 only, and for 19 years T3 only (since menopause). When I got a diagnosis for osteoporosis, I asked to have a T4 supplement for a T4/T3 ratio that would slow the parathyroids
