Relieved!
just had CT scan to access pain and discomfort. All good! Also, lymph nodes decreased in size about 50%. My doctor attributes the pain to Zanubrutinib side effect. Hopefully it will only be temporary. Looks like treatment is working! Thanks for all the input!

Residual tumour regrowth
Hi there, I had surgery in 2021 to remove a large AN. My follow-up MRI scans showed that all was well--until the last one, which shows regrowth. It's slight (from 17 x 5 mm to 22 x 7 mm) but it still really scares me. My consultation with my neurosurgeon (the one who saved me before) isn't until the

Hello fellow fighters! My husband has recently finished 6 rounds of Pluvicto and his PSMA PET scan has shown considerable spread throughout his bones. His PSA continued to rise during the Pluvicto treatment and the RO convinced us that it was probably just debris field from the dying bone lesions. It

Drug to fight cachexia in cancer patients phase 2 trial
seems to have good results with cachexia. Not tested directly on prostate cancer patients but could be promising. “This study showed us those who received ponsegromab had improvement in body weight, muscle mass, quality of life and physical function," https://www.upi.com/Health_News/2024/09/14/pfizer-cancer-drug-test

KEYTRUDA Side Effects
Hi All, After failing docetaxel and pluvicto my MO put me on KEYTRUDA. Yesterday, 13 September, I experienced some very painful side effects. My neck was really stiff, which made moving it painful and difficult. The other issue was that all my joints and nerve endings felt like they were on fire. Moving

Hearing loss
My upcoming AN surgery will result in permanent hearing loss in my left ear. What is the experience of living with hearing in only one ear, and has anyone had cochlear implants? How effective are they?

GCA Training in Scanning at Leeds
I took part in this training yesterday as a volunteer 'patient'. It was interesting seeing how different doctors managed, or had difficulty, practicing scanning on me. I was lucky that the tutor in my room was Prof Dasgupta. 3 trainees at a time and 3 groups over 1.5 hours, quite intensive. I picked

efudex ( fluorouracil 5)
My dermatologist has suggested and prescribed the above medications for my face and neck for my ongoing battle with actinic keratosis and squamous cell carcinoma ( 6 mohs surgeries). Has anybody used this treatment for their skin? From what I read, it is a topical chemotherapy. It causes redness,
