I have had 40 sessions of radiotherapy and HT since then, I am currently taking Abiraterone with Steroids and I have a three-monthly De-Capetyl injection. My Gleason score is 7, (4+3). I recently had a Gallium PSMA PET scan

Will I be offered surgery?
Hi All, I have HGSOC stage 1V and when I was diagnosed just over two years ago my abdominal tumour was 15cm x 11cm with a side mass of 4cm. I had spread to the lymph nodes in my neck and chest which have now gone. After two years of chemo the tumours had reduced but are now back to square one. I was

Any advice would be appreciated
Three years ago my dear friend was diagnosed with metastisized prostate cancer. Stage 8. Cancer had spread to bone but not to lymph nodes or organs. HealthUnlocked helped me, as primary support person, to navigate options, to formulate useful questions for our medical team, to anticipate treatment side

Advice on bloodwork after radiation treatment?
Hello all, I have been coming back to this forum since finding it a few weeks back, and am looking for some advice and thoughts on my father's case. He was diagnosed with prostate cancer (a very low PSA) back in 2016, underwent a radical prostatectomy that year, and then radiation a year or two later

CA 27-29 has your tumor marker test ever gone into normal range
Update to my last update: the people who ran my blood said they mixed up the vials of blood with another patient. They offered to retest me at no expense. I go in tomorrow for my bloodwork retest. I can’t imagine how often stuff like this happens and how often it goes unnoticed. It says Mayo Clinic

Chemotherapy yesterday, Labs before show PSA 6 pts higher…
Concern about rise in PSA, also on
chemotherapy
and had his 5th session yesterday… The lab work was prior to
chemotherapy
So, could the PSA test be skewed by the new immune suppressant Oztela / Ampremilast for his psoriasis?

I took 4 shots over a two year period with no side effects. My next Dexa scan showed improvement to osteopenia. However, I developed a blood

How do you gauge how bad your Tinnitus is?
Besides knowing that my old baseline was as mild as could be, I have no idea how to ascertain how intense my Tinnitus is when describing it to people since my
chemotherapy
started. It’s a high pitch ringing noise I can hear at all times but it doesn’t drown voices out, it’s just distracting.

B12 & Folate Deficiency and tolerability of antibiotics (why I react badly to them)
Before I figured this out from my research, I knew that B12 deficiency could increase the risk of toxic side effects from several
chemotherapy
drugs, which massively increased the risk of peripheral neuropathy.

Hearing problems
After 14 infusions of chemo over the past 2 years I am beginning to think that my hearing problems may be related. My oncologist also believes this. Awaking each morning they seem pretty clear but as the day goes I have to yawn to help clear them, which doesn’t seem to help. My right ear continues
