Urinary Issues
I have had urinary issues for a long time. Urgency, frequency, retention, pain. No "incontinence" if i can get to a toilet or get the dick out to pee on the ground fast enough. Every day is a different combination of the above and I have never been able to figure out what causes each symptom or how

Librax side effects
Hello to the IBS Community,
😊 I hope this message finds you well. I'm reaching out because I've been navigating stress-induced IBS, and it's been quite a journey. The symptoms—pain, nausea, bloating, inflammation—have been challenging, to say the least. I have been feeling pain daily for months

Prebiotic Probiotic Antibiotic... What's the deal?
Ok... Antibiotic is just added to the post title for rhyming. This post is not about antibiotic. So what is this about? Bacillus Subtilis PXN21 beneficial for PD... And Bio-Kult sells out. Thankfully pvw2 pointed out that any Subtilis strain works L. Plantarum PS128 beneficial for PD... And

Haemophilus influenzae
Has anyone been able to get immunised against haemophilus influenzae? I've just had a bad infection which has been hard to shake off and I don't want it again. I know there is a vaccine available for adults but my hospital seems never to have heard of it.

A quick update for those that remember my recent posts about the Ablation complications!
Ablation 16/3, artery got damaged, 3 outpatient appointments, 2 failed attempts at thrombin infusion under ultrasound, emergency 3 day admission to hospital with emergency pseudoaneurysm and arteriovenous fistula repair (pretty major surgery involving patching the damaged artery with cow veins) . Most

European Medicines Agency approves Phase II trial of uTRACE in prostate cancer: good news because they also have uTREAT
While uTRACE is a diagnostic tool, its brother uTREAT will be a very interesting radioligand for drug delivery in the near future (like Actinium, Lutetium & Co) uTRACE is used as a PET-tracer ligand that targets the uPAR receptor, which is known to be a biomarker for cancer aggressiveness. https:

Ketogenic diet alters the epigenetic and immune landscape of prostate cancer to overcome resistance to immune checkpoint blockade therapy.
Overall, this strikes me as too hypothetical for us to apply, but what do I know? "Overall, these findings illuminate a potential clinical path of using HDACi and optimized KD regimens to enhance ICB therapy for PCa." HDACi = histone deacetylase inhibitor [To date, four HDAC inhibitors, Vorinostat

10-year update still shows no benefit to ART vs early SRT
ART
= adjuvant radiation therapy, within 6 months after radical prostatectomy (RP)
early SRT
= salvage radiation therapy, after PSA ≥ 0.1ng/ml or 3 consecutive rises. Median was 0.2 ng/ml. Median 1 ½ years after RP. Patients risked nothing by waiting, and gained urinary and fecal continence

Moving on to Provenge/Sipuleucel-t
We met with my husband's onc yesterday to discuss the next move since the 3 years of Abiraraterone/prednisone has run its course. His psa numbers are now around 2.0 (up from a low of .04) and psma scan indicates that bone met volume is quite low. A recent lab biopsy didn't reveal much... The good doc

Ureter Restriction from Radiation Treatments?
While I don't have any symptoms (yet), a CT scan and ultrasound tests show that the lower part of my right ureter tube is very narrow and causing the kidney to swell, apparently from restricted flow of urine through the ureter. My University of Chicago Medicine urologist suspects scarring in the ureter

Please help us decide on next treatment
Hi, my Dad was diagnosed back in 2021 with stage IV, Gleason 9, oligometastatic. He had 6 weeks of radiation at the time of diagnosis and has been for the past 2.5 years on Abiraterone, Prednisone and Lupron. As I mentioned in my prior post my Dad’s PSA started going up. He had a PSMA Pet scan and it

Nagalase count
My nagalase count is declining. 1.55 -1.37 - 1.12 today. The Clioquinol +zinc +ivermicetin is still working on the way to zero. PSA is steady at 32 Nagalase is an enzyme that cancer cells produce to protect themselves from the immune system.

bladder aches
Hello all! New to the forum, 42 years old, male. Thanks for having me! About eight months ago, and for the first time in my life, I suddenly developed an ache in my bladder area. I had a prostate exam and blood test, as well as a UTI test and all was negative. Within 2-3 weeks the pain went away
