mCRPC- What is double negative prostate cancer along with the other 4 subtypes.
In research trying to understand my PSMA-negative FDG-positive current scenario I've come across some interesting articles that I thought I'd share with the group. I'm consulting with a new MO on Wednesday and I'm hoping she can shed some light on my progression. This paper came out 2 weeks ago- it's

High risk vs. aggressive cancer
I understand the definition of high-risk prostate cancer (Gleason, PSA and/or spread), but that doesn't necessarily seem to be the same thing as aggressive cancer. How can aggressiveness be determined for high risk, localized cancer? Thanks for any insight and information.

Cancer Center Keeps Making Errors that make my application for a Medical Marijuana card get denied
I am so frustrated! My second application for a MMC was denied as the Physicians License # was in error. The first one was denied because their phone number was not included. This is just crazy! I've written a letter about that to them and will be giving it to either my onc or the NP that I see

Treatment wait length- Public Health System Ireland
Hi all, I'm waiting on a scan appointment for suspected Ovarian Cyst and I'm in a lot of pain. I'm paying for it myself as I don't have health insurance and my consultant said I could be waiting 3 months on the Public Health waiting list. My mom had a 1kg cyst removed a few years ago and full hysterectomy

Barrigel is now preferred over "SpaceOAR" gel?
Consulted by video with the doctor who is supposed to install my SpaceOAR in preparation for my IMRT. His first words were "we don't use SpaceOAR gel anymore. We use Barrigel." He explains it has fewer side effects but the same radiation absorption characteristics. Here is what "UroToday" says:

After 2 Nuclear Ligand treatments should I still have severe bone pain in my lower back?
My SO was diagnosed last year with stage 4 Prostate cancer. Although his PSA never went extremely high (8.0) his Gleason scores were two 8's and a 9. The cancer when diagnosed consumed his complete prostate and was found in the vertebras of his neck, shoulder and shoulder socket plus his pelvis and

Hand surgery went well
The scheduler phoned me Monday to offer me an earlier procedure on Tuesday and I jumped at the chance to be the first patient of the day for the hand surgeon! When he's not running late, and is likely at his best. But that meant we had to get up at 4 am! Itold every body that I probably didn't need

Anyone have hypercalcemia?
Hi, All! I've been doing pretty well since my diagnosis and b12 injections for 5 months or so. I still had some lingering symptoms that I felt were not related to pernicious anemia.

Chatbots Not Always Reliable for Cancer Treatment Advice - MedPage Today, August 24, 2023.
Seems AI for cancer info and advice might not yet be ready for prime time. For the immediate future, I'd trust something like Cancer Hacker Lab long before a Chatbot for info and guidance on treatment, esp. if it was other than SOC. * * * [i]
