I am glad to see multiple countries are now taking this condition more seriously.
It’s all about finding the right doctor. I was lucky mine is the head of endocrinology research at a hospital.
I understand you’ll have more info for us on August 8th but can you elaborate a little on the study. Is this a going to be in a research lab or are they just going to experiment with different treatments at a hospital or clinic?
I cannot give out to much information as it is not completely varified… I will be doing this at a hospital and research facility. First tests is to compare blood results previous and post finasteride. Side effects in relation to mental and physical changes. As I said I will not know till the day. There is going to be group of doctors. Keep you posted. But I’m guessing the main goal is to establish whether finasteride induced these side effects and a treatment plan if things don’t return to baseline.
Do they have a significant sample of PFS patients lined up or is this just you at this point? I think a couple thousand of us and Dr. Bosley himself can attest to the fact that Fin caused us to be messed up and considering hypogonadism is a well documented side effect of androgen abilation.
Wonder if Awor would speak with the head researcher and bring them up to speed data wise to the extent as to not jeapordize the Italian publication or any other already scheduled research.
Great news for you guys down there and I hope this turns into something big. If this develops ultimately it would be great if they would work on a parallel track with the other instituitons already lined up.
Definately a sign that media exposure is starting to bear some fruit.
