Early breast cancer
I've just been diagnosed with early breast cancer. I've had mammogram, biopsy and mri. The lump is 3cm. I am awaiting a tests on my lymph nodes. Then have been told lumpectomy, radiotherapy and /or chemotherapy. It's oestrogen and progesterone driven. I am on hrt, I'm perimenopausal. I also had a heart

apalutamide vs. abiraterone
My husband has been recommended ADT + abiraterone + prednisone for two years. My friend who is an oncologist suggested apalutamide instead as it doesn't need to be supplements with prednisone and has less side effects. Wanted your opinion.

HRT post ovarian cancer
Hi, does anyone have anything on HRT post ovarian cancer and radical hysterectomy? I’m 14 years post diagnosis and struggling with brain fog and fatigue. Is HRT an option?

Dad 2nd BCR. Advice needed...
After a very late salvage radiation + 1 year Lupron. He has been off ADT for 1 year when PSA began to rise again. From 0.01 to 0.03 in less than 2 months then 0.05 after another 3 months. Is this indicative of an aggressive progression and metastasis? The oncologist said that the doubling time is not

I’m recurrent in prostate bed with three negative PSMA PET scans and essentially unchanged size of enhancing nodule over 18 months on three MRIs DUT and FIN began when PSA reached 0.36. In six weeks dropped to 0.26 after beginning DUT and FIN. they are affecting sensitivity of the PSMA scans. After

Methylation to feel good
Hi Folks, Thank you for all the advice and words of encouragement. I’ve been reading a lot of papers on methylation and the effects on the body, below is an article that seems to sum it up if interested… https://draxe.com/health/methylation/ I’ve also been doing a lot of reading on higher incidences

is this what CR looks like?
Starting Nov 20 last year, I began a relugolix on-cycle. Here’s the PSA readings from that point: Nov 20 : 3.10 Jan 8: 0.31 Feb 27: 0.13 Apr 15: 0.08 So up to this point, the PSA is dropping nicely, as it always has with on-cycles; and as I would expect, since I’ve been a strong responder

Both ovaries out or not?
Hi, its me again! So ive read my notes from my MDT meeting and noticed they want to take both my ovaries out when they do my hysterectomy and endo excision. One has a big endometrioma on it and as of last year the scan showed the other was healthy. My question is do I agree to them both coming out and

Worried about pulmonary fibrosis if radiating the metastasis in my shoulder blade
When I saw my radio-oncologist a few days ago and asked what is the risk for my lungs if we use radiation against the metastasis in my right shoulder blade. He said that there is a risk that it could cause fibrosis but that it does not impact breathing and that I should not worry. Today I decided to

PALB2 Stage 4 A prostate cancer treatment plan.
My Partner has stage 4A prostate cancer spread to the nodules and has the PALB2 gene. How effective is internal and external radiation and ADT as the first line of treatment? Why can't the drs start with PARP inhibitors and chemo which is the standard of care as a second line treatment? Is it because
