Hi everyone I've recently been prescribed this medication due to severe constipation as a side effect of chemotherapy and all the associated drugs that go with it. I already suffer with chronic constipation so I take prucalopride , which now isn't effective alone 😔 my question is how many sachets do

The Hole is Closed!
On 6 April, the interventional radiologist slipped with the instrument to ablate a malignant tumor in my liver and punctured a hole in my colon! My health situation has been dire, since. Last Friday I had a procedure in Memorial Sloan. Kettering to block a nerve in that area as I have had almost

cancer marker 15-3
My moms marker went up from 163 to 332 . She started her second line treatment about 7 weeks ago after being on Ibrance and Femara for around 2 and half years. She is now on faslodex and anfintor. Does this mean its not working ? And if it’s not will they change both meds or just one of them? Thank

How to Navigate Prostate Cancers With Actionable Mutations - Grand Rounds Highlights, MedPage Today - 09/26/2023
I'm travelling and using an unfamiliar tablet, so no cut and paste from these linked articles. Note the access to a PDF of the full Grand Rounds paper in the second linked article. It has a useful table and simplified treatment algorithm for those mCRPCa with actionable genetic mutations. [i]

interesting Xeloda trial
Hi friends, I listened to a presentation summarizing reports from ASCO 2023 related to MBC, and what really interested me was that for Xeloda, a fixed dose taken one week on/one week off, produced as good results as current standard of care with fewer side effects. Also: cream form of Voltaren/diclofenac

HDR Brachytherapy
I’m resting up in my UK hospital bed after going through HDR-brachytherapy (as a monotherapy) the past two days, to treat intermediate stage (G3+4) PC. I had radiation delivered in two fractions, about 18 hours apart. People can obviously read up all about this treatment option online at various sites

May be doing IV chemo for the first time. Need tips - really freaked out!
Hi, so I’ve successfully avoided doing IV chemo since 2019. But due to bone mets I just had hip surgery and the pills I’ve been on are not working. I was told by the surgeon 2 days ago that I need systemic treatment asap or I’ll die. I’m having a petscan tomorrow and depending on how it looks, I’ll

ADT or Hospice?
My 96 year old FIL was recently diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer which has metastasized to his liver, lymph nodes, pelvis and spine, with a compression fracture in L12. The family is at a crossroads, deciding between starting him on ADT or having him enter hospice. As the urologist described

Bowel endo surgery
I was diagnosed with endo via lap four years ago. At the time i had an endometrioma removed but they left some endo (including a nodule) on my left uterosacral ligament as it was too close to the ureter. I also had mirena fitted at the same time and discharged straight after the surgery. Although there
