Pre Op assessment
I was diagnosed in July with stage 4 endo/adeno, bilateral endometriomas and a frozen pelvis, large ovarian cysts, enlarged falopian tubes following MRI and various ultrasounds. I have been on prostrop since, while on the waiting list for surgery. Last month I received a call from the endo nurse saying

Confused about potential ibs c with overflow diagnosis
So after having a constant list of other symptoms unrelated to bowels i have finally spoke to a gastro who is assuming i have ibs c with overflow. I am on the waiting list for a colonoscopy so this potential diagnosis has been made on a 5 min phone call not an in person appointment. My confusion comes

Lymph node Metastasis
After 7 years, and multiple PSMA scans, my husband had a FDG CT scan and it showed what they quoted as “several” metastasis In the lymphs In the para aortic area in abdomen. One doc wants to biopsy to check if cancer DNA has changed from original pathology in 2017. Another doc says… No to biopsy due

bowel blockage
Had bowel resection 6 years ago . Iliostomy bag and then successful reversal . Had an appendectomy about a year later, because my appendix were stuck to my ileostomy scar internally. I had pain and went to the hospital, but my surgery wasn’t emergency. I was scheduled about two weeks later for the appendectomy

pelvic pain
Has anyone tried MRI Defecography tests for rectum and anal pain? It’s a first suggested to me. Don’t know if this may help diagnose this pain.

Will Existing Drugs Stop Cancer's Bone Spread? I don't know but it's driving me crazy!
Just because I cannot know which are the two repurposed drugs that seem to have such great results with metastasis. The chief researcher is Neta Erez who has great reputation in research about bone metastasis. I am inclined to think about Ivermectin as one of the possible components of the cocktail,

A potential game-changer for CAR T cell therapy: mutations in cancer engineered to beat cancer
CAR T therapy has been successful in some acute blood cancers. Response rates, however, are considerably lower in CLL and solid tumours, with T cell exhaustion and antigen escape being shared issues. A potentially game-changing advance in solid tumour CAR T technology may therefore be relevant to CAR
