DLS,
The H. Lee Moffitt Cancer & Research Institute at USF is one of the best, IMHO. However, you might be wise to stay away until about mid to late October. It gets awfully hot down here in the summer ... I doubt that most thick-blooded Yanks could stand our humid heat.

> I'm hypopituitary (with resulting hypothyroidism and hypogonadism), I'm taking thyroid supplements and used to supplement testosterone until prostate cancer was diagnosed. The endo says testosterone would help the depression and moods, the psychiatrist says he doesn't think so - what's a guy to do???? I have found an article by a psychosocial oncologist at the H. Lee Moffit Cancer Center in Tampa who theorizes that a psychological condition of Apathy can exhibit itself in hypopituitary patients. His recommendation is that if buproprion doesn't resolve the apathy then it's appropriate to add a stimulant. So far, even though I've shared that information with the local psychiatrist, I can't get him too interested in the protocol. Now I'm saving my pennies for round trip air fare to Tampa.
