Catheter out after 6 months and Old Faithful erupts, or rather dribbles. Will the dribble become a stream?
What a pleasant surprise during my Uro visit, which was to replace the catheter and check things. When he pulled out the cystoscope I started to feel wet. It’s now a week after this happened, I can get the dribble to spurt but that’s it and I can’t control the incontinance. Any activity almost leaves

bladder neck invasion. Can it be radiated?
My husband had radical prostatectomy last week and the pathology report came back with “bladder neck invasion present”, in” right mid and superior posterior and left and right bladder neck”. I’m wondering is it possible to radiate that area after he heals from surgery? He’s a gleason 9/10 and 50 years

Since diagnosis in 2018, I have pretty much run the gamut of affordable SOC treatments and I finally got my Onco to agree that the treatments were doing more harm than good (based on side effects and endlessly climbing PSA). I have continual gut pain. Is this type of pain what we hear about as

Prolia
I am 70, gleason 9, RP in April 2022. On ADT (Eligard and abirterone with predisone) since June 2022. Went for a second opinion this week with a medical oncologist who specializes in prostate cancer. He stressed the need for me to start on Prolia as soon as possible. My bone denisity was measured

rising psa but scans are clear
I had brachytherapy 6 years ago for prostate cancer, Gleason score 6. PSA went down to under 1. Now it has risen over the years to 10.8 but all scans, PET, CT, and biopsy of prostate are totally clear. My urologist want to put me on Elegard (hormone therapy) that will make my quality of life terrible

Caudal Epidural
Hi Arvine, I was also diagnosed several months ago with spinal stenosis and the spinal neurologist recommended a caudal epidural. Due to an intervening infection I was only able to have this procedure three days ago. It was quick and painless and so far I have had no after effects. By the time

Gemzar not working
Sadly, I couldn’t tolerate more Carbo, and the Gemzar/Avastin infusions have not helped. My CA125 is rising. Has anyone has this happen? Any suggestions? Thank you.

Cystoscopy
I had a small amount of blood in my urine which turned out not to be a UTI. The doctor has sent me for a cystoscopy at the hospital on Monday. I have read about it and am becoming increasing anxious about it. Has anyone else had one who could give me any advice/encouragement?

Stopped Solifenacin
Because of constipation side effect which was very unpleasant. Decided to come off Solifenacin. With my GP agreeing. Two weeks in and the withdrawal symptoms have been awful. Worst of all the pressure of wanting to pee all the time is worse than when I first started them. My GP has said she will

Probiotic help
Hello all I had dental surgery a couple of years ago and was prescribed some rather powerful antibiotics. I had pretty bad diarrhea throughout and my gut just hasn't been the same since. I now have frequent flare ups, and the "baseline" I return to is quite far from what I would consider normal for me

Elreada: minimal effective dose
Hi, PSA has gone from .32 in July 2022 to .52 in October to 1.99 in January. Worried that decapeptil is failing. NHS consultant has been on at me for two years to go on abi etc. Have resisted as unlike the Moffitt (which makes sense to me) in Tampa the SOC in the UK is to pursue maximum tolerated

length of time for biopsy results
Hi, had a partial lung lobectomy and lymph node removal, was told biopsy results would be back in 7-10 days. It’s now been 41 days and I’ve heard nothing. When I contact various people I’m just being told this length of timeframe is not uncommon.. this does not sound right to me… Anyone else had to wait

struggling with neck pain :( help pls!
I first was diagnosed with fibromyalgia back in 2020 when I started having aches and pains in neck shoulders feeling tired all the time, funny heads as I used to call them, memory issues, stressed all the time and really deflated about everything. I could never relax and always overthink everything.
