Oncotype and active surveillance
I am on AS (1 core 10% GL6 in mri guided
biopsy
). Oncotype score is 40, so in the middle :-( Thoughts. I am super confused now

Possible Hemochromatosis?
Been under investigation but Hepatologist due to constant high GGT and ferritin.. but they can't find anything wrong apart from mild siderosis and fatty liver disease from a liver
biopsy
in 2019. Should I ask them if they would do a full iron panel?

why? Is this normal?
Open surgery. 12 weeks later a nurse said your
biopsy
has just come back, you don’t have cancer but we want to do chemo on you to mop up any floating cancer cells that may or may not be there. A bile stent would not come out.

Prolaris Test Helps ID Higher-risk Patients Who May Safely Skip ADT when receiving radiation for PCa
Prolaris predicts cancer aggressiveness by analyzing the activity of 46 genes involved in cancer cell proliferation, using tissue collected during a
biopsy
to confirm a cancer diagnosis or during surgery to remove the prostate.

Who else has Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) in addition to their PCa?
Described as bone marrow cancers and a bone marrow
biopsy
is required for dx. It morphs into Acute Myloid Leukemia in 30-40% of the cases. Know that my shit is weak and am searching for info just like I did when I joined here after my PCa dx.

How long of a delay in treatment is too long? And how does weak urinary flow interface with RT?
In addition, he sent off tissue samples from my
biopsy
to get a Decipher test. His hunch is that despite my "mild EPE" (per MRI) and my Gleason 3+4, my Decipher number will be low enough to warrant RT without hormones.

Not All Prostate Biopsies Are Alike!
I had my 4th prostate
biopsy
recently to pleasantly discover it wasn't painful, at all, perhaps a little uncomfortable at times, but not painful like my previous 3 biopsies! I have always considered the early part of the
biopsy
process when the lidocaine was injected as "blindingly painful".

Critical illness cover for ET
Hi, my husband who is 50 has just been diagnosed with ET CALR following a bone marrow
biopsy
. Initially he went to the doctor for a well man check which revealed high platelets (917). Diagnosis was finally confirmed at the beginning of January 2023.

Genetics - Some answers but not all
Received my husband's somatic mutation report from the liver and lymph
biopsy
. Not clear yet if the MSI test report is back. In the meantime, the lack of good response to hormonal drugs and chemo might be explained by the following.

Multiple biopsy
I was diagnosed with Stage II breast cancer in May and since then I have had 6 biopsy's where they have been unable to 'mark' the cancer. Has anyone else had the same problem please?

Man's Prostate Cancer Caused "Uncontrollable" Irish Accent, Doctors Say
Biopsy
confirmed transformation to small cell neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC). Despite chemotherapy, his NEPC progressed resulting in multifocal brain metastases and a likely paraneoplastic ascending paralysis leading to his death.

Starting Tagrisso
My doctor then ordered a
biopsy
which tested positive for EGFR mutation. I had a three week course of radiation and just started Tagrisso two days ago. All my joints are sore. Hopefully, this side effect will ease.

Hi I'm new and looking for some insight away from the walls of medics.My story starts 3 years ago, I was bleeding more than I wasn't.

6 weeks post lung transplant.
Home now and what a relief. 22 days in ICU resulting in muscle waste in legs so starting all over again with stairs etc. Wound pain 8/10 especially when bending or reaching out. 30% loss of vision due to minor stroke at bottom of brain. The docs seem quite happy with results which is brilliant but

Further treatment - Update
I had
biopsy
03.09.07 (Gleason score 3+7) and prostatectomy 10.11.07. PSA started to rise soon after. Since then I have had radiation and been more or less on Zoladex injections the whole time. I started Xtandi in April 2019 and switched to Nubeqa December 2021.

PSA after the radical prostatectomy
The surgeon I saw booked a date for removal operation without doing
biopsy
. I trusted him so i did but after 10 weeks, my PSA was still around 7 (another clinic showed 9). No spread to outside the gland except one lymph node was found canceous of the
biopsy
of the removed prostate.
