Just found out via MRI that I have mild to moderate central canal stenosis in the cervical area. I also have this in the lumbar spine. I was wondering if there are non-surgical treatments for this.
When I was in my 20s (I'm 57 now) I went in for a physical. The Doc calls me and says he wants me to go for a CT scan of my liver. He says my bilirubin is very high and he wants to make sure I don't have a tumor. CT was normal and he concluded I prob have Gilberts. I was drinking (quite a bit)...
Old post but I was searching threads regarding elevated bilirubin. My labs just came back with total bilirubin at 1.6 - Freaked me out a little. Checking my eyes for jaundice every day now. My bilirubin normally runs 1.0 to 1.3
Other liver enzymes normal.
ALT 22
AST 22
Platelets 230
Albumin 4.6...
I went back on HCG 250IU twice a week. Its been about 5 weeks now and I have put on about 10 pounds.
I don't recall this happening in the past. I am curious if others have gained weight on HCG
I tried 2.5mg a couple years ago for ED. Worked really well for that, but no effect on BPH. I believe the daily dosage for BPH is 5mg. I have my UroCuff test with Dr Rotman in a few weeks. After that I will ask him about trying the 5mg Cialis. I did get some sides with the 2.5 unfortunately. The...
The only things I take besides T and HCG are Simvastatin and Dexilant. As far as supplements; Vit D 5000 IU, Q10 200mg, and Zinc 15mcg. This has been a problem I first noticed about 5 years ago that has slowly been getting worse. The last DRE my urologist did was normal. He said my prostate...
I had an 11,000 vial from Hallendale that I mixed back in April. I decided to try to stop HCG in May or June and restarted in September using that old mix. My numbers were on the low side when I re-tested last week. My E2 was only 21 without an AI. That was shocking as I normally run up to 50-60...
Doesn't sound too bad. What is the cause of your frequent bathroom visits? I hope my issue is just BPH and not some blockage or growth in the bladder. Although my PSA is only 1.4. I read online that the procedure can differentiate between a prostate or bladder issue.
I have been considered "pre-diabetic" for the last 12 years. My A1C fluctuates between 5.5 and 5.8. Last test 6 months ago was 5.7
On my labs this past Monday my Glucose was 92 (non fasting. 4 hours post breakfast)
Note; I have had a few doctors tell me there is no such thing as pre-diabetes...
Anyone else experience this problem? Is this typical of an enlarged prostate? My doc said my prostate "feels" normal but it could still be enlarged. This has been an ongoing problem for the last 5 to 7 years. It seems to be getting worse. I have a urine flow test and a bladder sonogram in a...
I need to start writing things down. Last night I injected my usual 16mg T sub-q. Next dose is tomorrow as I go EOD. I forgot I injected yesterday and injected again tonight. Never did that before. Should I worry? I guess I'll skip a dose to get back in line.
Not sure. The numbers are in the patient portal but until the final labs come in (A1C and Ferritin) I cant see the actual report. But I know from the past he usually uses BioReference.
I just had labs and my HCT came in at 53.5 Normal. The ref range is 40 - 54. First time I seen that. 50 was always the cut-off in the past. I don't know which lab this urologist used.
Anyone have experience with the UroCuff test? My doctor is doing one in a couple weeks due to my frequent urination. I read about it briefly and it sounds painful.
I have been using the larger 11,000 IU Vial from Hallendale Pharmacy. Its cheaper and lasts longer than the standard 6000 vial from Empower. Anyone know how long HCG will stay fresh after its mixed with water and placed in the refrigerator?
I can't find the hydrogel cream on Empowers website. I see the regular cream that they always sold. Is it still available? I want to ask my doctor if I could try it
I use 250iu twice a week. I haven't noticed any new prostate issues. I have issues for years with my prostate so that's unrelated.
Yes it helps libido for me a lot. And mush better orgasms especially within 24 hours of dosing.
So about 3 years ago I was donating blood every 3 months for hight HCT. I was at 57 at one point. After 2 years of doing that my Ferritin came back at 0. Yes Zero. Then a repeat test a couple weeks latter read 4. I went to EOD sub-q T, and lowered the dose a lot. I haven't had to donate blood in...
