Question on Genetic Testing, how much is too much?
Biopsy
to Sacrum done 1/23, it is a met from Prostate and tissue is being tested. MO now wants another genetic testing (blood DNA) I think, done with Tempus. How many genetic testings are normal? Anyone else had this many?

Diag with NAFLD Cirrhosis from biopsy, doctor said theres no difference between a 15kpa and 30kpa fibroscan score, confused?
Hi guys, I had a fibroscan score a couple months back of 30kpa which I took to suggest I had fairly advanced cirrhosis, had a
biopsy
which confirmed cirrhosis, when I was told the results I asked for liver doctor if given my fibroscan score of 30kpa it meant that I was far gone and could expect to become

Has others received treatment at MSK, how did they do
Liver Mets had increased not decreased, getting a liver
biopsy
on Monday. The PSA had gone up instead of down, the trial is plivicto so we will see what happens. Since I am over 4 hours away and the only driver I will be taking the train.

Locally Advanced Prostate Cancer, at diagnosis
His gleason score was a 9, grade 5 at
biopsy
. A PET scan seems to be showing that a near lymph node has been compromised. We're still waiting to see doctors - at first local urologist recommended appointments with surgeons, and after PET scan is now suggesting he see a radiation oncologist.

Had Colonoscopy - Clean but....
1) no polyps 2) non-bleeding internal -hemorrhoids (moderate and grade 1) 3) localized area of mildly vascular-pattern decreased mucosa was found in sigmoid colon (
biopsy
taken but was told nothing there) 4) asked to come back in 5 years for surveillance. What do I make of # 3?

Can a
biopsy
give false results without removing the previous treatment? My opinion is yes, but that's just my opinion. Lately I am seeing many people with positive biopsies and mutations. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1002255923489156

Rising PSA
I do have another surveillance
biopsy
next week but this rising PSA concerns me. Lab says they don't check Free PSA when PSA is over 10. Any insight is appreciated. Thank you.

Progress update - Pirtobrutinib triple trial for treatment naive
No bone marrow
biopsy
was done - I have that scheduled for the end of Cycle 7. I was elated, to say the least! A separate Flow Cytometry indicated that all of my lymphocytes in my blood are T-cells and NK cells - there were no CD19+ cells.

Low sodium diet
I am here, on this forum for my husband's CKD/proteinuria (all unexplained- kidney
biopsy
was "normal" as well as his genetic test). Anyway, his Nephrologist put him on low sodium November 30th. I went on it with him and haven't had a migraine since!

Update
I did have another
biopsy
of my prostate. No cancer there anymore, just 8 or so places in the bones. Unfortunately, without the PPI I was miserable and could not move forward with the clinical trial. April 30 I had my first infusion of docetaxel. Yes, there are side effects.

Cellularity 10-20% after treatment completed
Mine based on bone marrow
biopsy
and after treatment was completed is 10-20% . I'm not even close to 80 or 90 years old so it would seem I should have a score of 40s at least. Other than that all tracked numbers at blood tests are great and within range.

My new doctor confirmed the polycythemia diagnosis via bone marrow
biopsy
but also found No JAK2 mutation. The hydroxyurea that sent me to ER is not recommended (yay!).

Non small cell carcinoma in lung.
I have recently been diagnosed with non small cell carcinoma of the lung by the Royal Brompton. They sent a letter to my GP requesting an urgent 2 week referral to local oncology, GP surgery said they hadn't received the part of the letter asking for the referral. I emailed them a copy as they requested

Biopsy

Had anyone is dealing or have dealt with lymphomedema in your scrotum
The oncologist is planning a liver
biopsy
to see what type of prostate cancer we are dealing with. He is checking as I am also of trials with Plivicto, hopefully the production will increase.
