Atrioesophageal fistula (AEF)
To prevent this physicians send you home on a PPI like
Protonix
. I also requested carafate after being symptomatic to coat my esophagus and prevent an ulcer. I am on a bland diet for the next month to also protect my esophagus. No mention was ever made of this to me.

The
Protonix
definitely has to go. I don't wish to get involved in doing blood cancer tests, which includes a bone biopsy, if the problem is with my kidneys. Am scared and confused at this point.

Thyroid and stomach issues
The Dr keeps putting me on
Protonix
(Proton Pump Inhibitor) until yesterday, I was told to go off it and take Amoxicillin and Metronidazole. This happens a lot over the past 2 years.

Is there any reason to choose IMRT over proton therapy for whole pelvic treatment if both are covered by insurance?
I understand that both treatments are comparable in terms of toxicity and cure rate, but a radiation oncologist mentioned that proton therapy may carry a lower risk of secondary cancers 30-40 years down the line, making it a more logical option for me. Assuming both treatments are equally covered by

Dr. Selection for Proton Therapy
Hi all, I've been diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer. Gleason 9 with metastatic to the right seminal vessel and one lymph node.

heading for salvage therapy
hello all. Well my last two ( three month) PSA tests were 0.10 and MO. And RO. Recommend somewhat early salvage radiation treatment. A question I would like some input on is should I look into proton therapy over IMRT. I would need to travel to Fred hutch or Salt Lake City as I live in Reno Nv. Just

hdr brachytherapy or proton for salvage tx
MSK RO (Gorovets) recommends proton sbrt due to my preexisting urinary issues….hdr brachytherapy logistically is a LOT easier for me…..wondering if anyone here has any experience or opinions on this topic…..with all the hype about proton therapy and few studies to back it up definitively I’d hate to

Proton or Photon
Hi all, my wife and I are trying to determine the best choice for my prostate cancer. The biopsy/pet scan showed advanced prostate cancer with spreading to the right seminal vessel and involvement of one lymph node. We have had our first consult, locally, with a radiation (x-ray/photon) Dr. who suggested

PROTON THERAPY
Who is eligible to use proton therapy as a treatment for prostate cancer. In a recent meeting with my oncologist and specialists I was told ONLY prostate cancer patients can do it and not those who have metastasize of the bone or other areas.

Starting treatments
Had a setback due to being hospitalized in the ICU for a month and a half. Went to the Oncologist last week and about to start some aggressive treatment as I have a very aggressive prostate cancer. The oncologist on duty at the hospital had an MRI done to show where the metastasized bone cancer is located

Has anyone done the proton therapy?
Just curious if anyone had their MO suggest doing the proton therapy? When I have my discussion with my new MO, I want to ask if proton therapy would be a fit for myself. I have to deal with the prostate cancer and the met pelvic lymph nodes as well as the met bone issue.

eosinophilic esophagitis
I was told my anti acid/gerd medication I was on
Protonix
was not helping me so was prescribed Omeprazole. Has anyone had this and what did you do to get better? Also, did you find what foods caused it to happen?

BCF after 9 years post proton therapy
My PSA had been increasing slowly since my nadir of .75 in 2017 reaching 1.19 in 2022. Both RO and Uro weren't terribly concerned. I wanted PSMA after 3rd consecutive increase but both recommended a wait and see approach, especially the RO who seems honor bound to wait for 2.0 over nadir. I skipped
