Since iOS 27.0 update, an annoying thing is happening… calls/music play fine to my CI processor. However now when I take pictures in the camera app, it now switches to Bluetooth which is annoying AF as I may be talking to a friend and the BT tone is distracting. This also happens on the Amazon app or any website that autoplays ads or video. I’ve been playing with ChatGPT which hasn’t really nailed down the issue but I’m curious if anyone knows which setting to turn off or on to fix this?

I was solid a hair above average before surgery but after I shrunk a bit. I don’t get erections anymore and it’s hard to maintain even a 50% hard erection very long. I also orgasm much quicker as well. For the first couple years I got really down on myself but I’ve accepted it and pretty much lost interest in pursing any women. I’ve been given prescriptions for the pills but I’ve never used them. I’m curious if others have had similar issues and what you’ve done.

Currently 48 and likely going to do salvage radiation after having reoccurrence after 5 years after removal of prostate. I’ve done a pet psma tracer scan last week which I understand gives you years worth of radiation exposure. And salvage will obviously give me more. My question is being on the younger side of the issue, is the expectation that risking this radiation is worth it because maybe In 10-20 years they’ll have some “cure” for whatever might happen to me in the future after being exposed?

My stats… diagnosed at 41 with psa of 4.25-ish, no cancer spread beyond the gland, had surgery, psa was 0 for 4 years after surgery, 5th .09, skipped 6th due to aging parents (long story), and 7th (this year) was .36.

I have an appointment with my doctor on Monday to go over the results so I don’t know what he’ll recommend. Based on these stats, curious to know others opinions of what the next step may be

Glad to have found this subreddit. My other post I wasn’t 100% clear in it but after seeing the results of my Ultra sensitive test (0 for 4 years, 0.09 5th, skip 6th, 7th .36), my urologist/surgeon did in fact order the pet scan… I was shocked at the price but obviously ive got to do it. Thanks to everyone for their comments.

Does arrow have any plans to release the trilogy boxset in the states? I know I can get the set and 4k is region free but I don’t have a region free blu ray player for the extras discs…

Hi all, had the removal surgery at 41 and was told the cancer didn’t spread beyond the gland. The subsequent PSA tests were undetectable until 2024 when it was .09, and last year due to stress from my mothers declining health (I was pretty much her caregiver) I skipped, but I just had a ultra sensitive test done and it came back at .38. Sadly over the last couple years I have had a poor diet and being rather inactive. Just curious what my next step might be. My doctor/surgeon suggested either a scan or seeing me every 6months depending on results (his comments were made prior to the blood test being taken as I got lucky with a next day appointment with him).

Hi all nice to find this subreddit. My mom (84) was diagnosed with a stage 2 meningioma tumor 4 years ago and had tough but successful surgery. She’s had 3 seizures, which she was able to slowly recover from over the last few years. The first was due to her being taken off keppra I believe, and the others were random like her being at PT and happening while stretching. She was hospitalized for a mild case of pneumonia 3 months ago and has weakened since but still fairly normal with cognitive abilities for her age and condition.

Her 4th seizure happened this past Sunday and likely was triggered by a lack of sleep for two nights due to a new lady moving into a great group home she was in. The new lady was screaming the entire night about her son and kept everyone up, my mom didn’t sleep well for 2 nights in a row. There’s always the possibility they missed a dose of her meds but unsure….

Anyways my mom appears to be EOL as they haven’t gotten her tremors under control with various medicines and she can’t really communicate at all but I know she’s has pain in her back. They’re talking about hospice care to my dad already which is discouraging to me but I’m reaching out to see if any folks have had parents in similar conditions who have recovered to at least have their tremors stopped and maybe have lived a while longer with at home care.
