Actually working f/t now. Began about a mos. back. Takes some getting used to. Haven't decided whether it's harder due to age or laziness. Hoping you're good as well, misb! - David

Does your dermatologist know that you take Aza? What I had on my fingers was not raised but flat, and each was a little larger than a pencil eraser's circumference. Appreciate the info, drz. - David

Have been on it (as I've mentioned) approx. 8 yrs. Down to 25 mg/day - although 2 yrs back (unbeknownst to doc) I began only taking every other day/3 times a wk. Someone on the forum suggested I...

I will check with my doc, Woz, re Imuran dosages. And maybe I shouldn't wait for my fall appt.
I was never at 100mg. Believe 50mg was my highest. That's so strange to me that you could go 9 mos....

mishb:

See what you're saying. I will not see him again till fall. He is the only doc I see regarding my Weg's - my kidney doc. Not sure I would want to bring it up over the phone or with his...

Questions:

How long have you had Weg's?
Trying to go off Imuran sounds like your doc's idea - was it cause things had been going well w/ your health?
What is Pr3? Gonna look for Pr3 on a past...

I may have asked a similar Q before.

I have been on Imuran for 7-8 years. I'm supposed to take 25mg/day and have held at this dosage for a few years. I'd like to get off it all together. Doc wants...

Was taking Flo - then doc added Finasteride on a whim w/out saying why (they often go together I've been told). Took them for maybe 3 months. Wanted to find a more natural way. Never heard of Pygeum...

I know this is a Weg's forum, again, but couldn't find another forum off-hand. For many it's a wonder drug. My whole reason for taking was to eliminate my getting up at night (I have counted as many...

So sorry to just be getting back to you, GJ. My only other source to the Internet is the library - and then I get there and it seems there's so much I need to do. Some things I just don't enjoy doing...

greenjeep: has the shot helped at all?? if another shot messes up your prostate more, how exactly does it mess things up? maybe a testosterone test is need for me. r u speaking of an enlarged...

gilders: the fatigue is indirectly related, right? the cpap's purpose being to give one better, more restful sleep.

Doc has put me on Flomax (1, 500mg cap). It has a side effect I don't care for so much. You may know it if you're on it. Told by another doc he still feels it's the best choice for most out of what's...

The clinic I attend is issuing a sleep study for me. Almost hope it shows sleep apnea. At least it would be an answer.

Arlerta, do to an enlarged prostate, I'm up anyway a few times every night for a few years! It's just been the last month. Leaving library now. Till next time.

Pete, it's gotta automatically be better - right? That's all I'm saying. I'm just surprised. Leaving the library now. Till next time.

Never in 7 years has he ever mentioned making sure I drink filtered water. Isn't that sort of strange? Wouldn't drinking from a "Brita" (for example) be a better thing? I have all along even so....

My recent testing didn't show anemia. Iron wasn't checked. Someone also suggested thyroid. After looking up symptoms though, I don't really see a correlation.
It's been about a good month now where...

The PSA was "ok" in that it was 2.2. Waiting to see the doc again to go over testing. I'm not worried about this reading, but I know a rechecking of the prostate will be a part of things from here on...

Good to "see" you as well, Anne!

Doctor sent me for bloodwork. Don't know anything just yet. Doc said it might be something caused by Wegs, which maybe would make it a "false-positive" so to speak, which I'm guessing would be a...

Not weg's related: My sis was dx'd with uterine cancer a year back. It was followed by chemo which she finished this past spring. She has never gained back her weight loss, as her appetite has never...

I have been on pred. during 1 stretch only - it was for 4+ years. Re sleep: I had no problem going to sleep but would wake at 0300 or so, and would often just stay up. Sleeping later returned to...

EVERYONE must be different then, because I've been at a standstill for a while. I'm a courier, so there's car-sitting, but also do my share of getting out of the vehicle. I feel I watch what/how much...

Jules,
At the library for just a moment, but will look closer at your comment next visit.
