Dealing with NED in this stage 4 appendix cancer journey
Hello - I’m new to this site and hoping to get information and awareness from others who are on the same journey. I’ve been NED since HIPEC in May 2022 having previously had debulking surgery followed by Folfiri and immunotherapy. I understand there’s a strong prospect I will have a recurrence so I

Asking for my sister: appendix adenocarcinoma w/KRAS G12V mutation
I am reaching out here because my sister had a very rare adenocarcinoma of the
appendix
. Her
cancer
is mutated with the dreadful KRAS G12V mutation. The
cancer
was found in the distal portion of the now-removed
appendix
during what was first thought to be appendicitis.

After Pluvicto #6 results
Finished my 6th and final Pluvicto and am now getting lab results. I see that somehow I neglected to put results after #5 -- may have been distracted by doctors freaking out that my kidney function was going down and my calcium shot up. My nuclear medicine doc made a judgement call to give me a full

PCA and Marrow Replacing Lesions
It is my understanding that PCa bone mets are not normally marrow replacing. I've had bone mets for about 3 years. Recently some large bones have been diagnosed with marrow replacing lesions. I'm wondering how common this actually is with prostate cancer bone mets?

Getting Lutetium 177 PSMA in Vancouver?
I recently attended a prostate cancer support group meeting in metro Vancouver where a radiation medicine specialist talked about options for prostate cancer theranostics in our province of British Columbia. I was surprised to learn that Americans can come up here and get Lutetium 177 PSMA treatments

MRI prior to Radiation Treatments + HT
My PSA has risen over nearly 5.5 years since my prostatectomy from Undetectable to 0.3. I was referred to an RO who, after reviewing my test results and prior history, indicated that there were some "cells left behind" near the prostate bed, even though they tried to get at them unsuccessfully during

Starting the journey Interested in comments Gleason 5+4 Met to Lymph and Maybe ribs
I have just started this journey, and am deciding on treatments now. 60 years young with a Gleason 5+4 PSA hovering around 7. My PSMA PET showed one lymph near pelvis for sure, and possibly a rib neat top on left side. My medical oncologist ordered a bone scan, which showed nothing on the left side

Waiting for Mr. T
I had an interesting development this week in my PCa journey. I went in for my quarterly hospital visit, which would normally include blood tests, meeting with my medical oncologist, and my last 3-month injection of Eligard. Blood tests were great, PSA and testosterone still undetectable. My MO decided

Update recent PSMA
Docs did it to me again with the usual bad news. Uptake in new lymph node locations in pelvis. the radiotherapy failed, and preclude more treatment on new nodal areas. (according to Docs.) So expect to add to ADT, abi or enza or darolutamide in a short while, with PSA going up on a fast double.

I have just finished six rounds of monthly Caelyx only. This is my fourth line of chemo ie. Third recurrence.While my CA125 didn't go down to normal level it was decreasing steadily until I got my results yesterday for the fifth round . It had risen to 257 from 189. I was really upset with this. I feel

Treatment options
I am 47 years old diagnosed with PC last month with Gleason score 9(5,4) and was advised ADT treatment with Bicalutamide and followed by Lupron 30 mg after two weeks. PSA was 77 in Jan and dropped to 23 after starting ADT treatment and already feeling better with much less urinary symptoms. I was advised

What is done in this case ? ADT not working
In may of 2011 the PSA and Biopsy showed that I had an agressive cancer with Gleason 8 so my prostate was extracted and after this I received radiotherapy. Since during the following 9 years my psa continued very low, I suspended checking it and last september I received the surprise that it had increased

Are bone and CT scans required quarterly if PSA and testosterone are basically zero and no symptoms?
I have stage IV prostate cancer with a spot on my lung being the only known spread of my cancer. After my chemo regimen, my CT and bone scans have been clean for a year now. And my blood work is perfect at the moment. I am on Zytiga and getting a Lupron shot quarterly. My doc still wants

Positive medical check update April 2024
Last days I’ve had couple of blood tests, ultra sound, annual PSMA Pet/CT and a meeting with my urologist. My last Lupron shot was Oct 2023. Blood values are all very ok, PSA undetectable, Testo less 0.1 ng/ML and PSMA Pet/CT and ultra sound clean, no recurrence, no metastases. I’m more than thankful

3 failed coloscopies
