Radiotherapy near plate & screws.
Hi peeps I have a fractured L2 which is causing a lot of pain they are going to do a vertebroplasty procedure and also a plate & screws just above it as I also have a curved spine. The curved spine I have had most of my life and will probably just get worse with age this will strengthen it. My question

Dream Week and indecipherable (to me) pathology report
I spent the most wonderful week that I have experienced in years at the beach with my family. Daughter, son-in-law, granddaughter, son, girlfriend, and wife together for a solid week. My expectations were high, and they were exceeded. It was special for so many reasons. We all live in the same city,

Tylex Intro
Just realized I never completed my profile so here is what brought me here. After waiting 8 weeks for a MRI Fusion biopsy the results showed mostly Gleason 9 (4+5) and one Gleason 9 (5+4). Bone Scan was negative and CT showed a suspect pelvic node when reviewed by Memorial Sloan Kettering radiologists

Should I get PSMA/PET + Nano-MRI if my nodal met risk is 7.4% according to Briganti nomogram?
M59, Gleason4+3, T2C, PSA7.8 According to the Briganti nomogram I have 7.4% risk for nodal metastases. Nano-MRI can detect mets down to 2 mm in lymph nodes. Current CT scans and MRIs don't show any mets outside prostate, but they are not as good as PSMA/PET+Nano-MRI combo. Question is, is it worth

New breakthrough to help immune systems in the fight against cancer.
New research has identified potential treatment that could improve the human immune system’s ability to search out and destroy cancer cells within the body. Scientists have identified a way to restrict the activity of a group of cells which regulate the immune system, which in turn can unleash other

Can someone explain how a stimulant will work on top of movicol?
My daughter is 3.5 and been withholding since she was a baby. We got her to a point where she was pooing every day without soiling but we are back to soiling again but still doing normal poos every day. I don't think shes blocked up as I can see sweetcorn/kidney beans in her poo the day after eating

Ductal PCA - Avoid T.U.R.P. and Self Cath
I have serious pissing problems with this cancer and after DX last fall, a TURP was done in December. From that sample, pathology determined this beast to be a Ductal PCA, a very aggressive cancer. Pissing problems returned in March, and the answer was to perform another TURP. Radiation Doc

How do I choose between Cyberknife (SBRT) monotherapy vs HDR Brachytherapy+EBRT?
M59, Gleason 4+3 (second opinion confirmed by Jonathan Epstein at John Hopkins), PSA7.8 average past 1 year, T2C stage. Haven't been operated or radiated before. Currently am being offered: 1) 5 fraction Cyberknife (SBRT) therapy that is concentrated to the prostate. 2) 1 time high dose rate Bracytherapy

Westminster researchers use data science approach to assess whether cancer patients will suffer side effects from radiotherapy
A new study led by the University of Westminster has used predictive AI modelling techniques to anticipate whether cancer patients are likely to develop severe side effects if treated with radiotherapy to help potentially avoid treatment interruption and cancer recurrence. The new collaborative research

What is consensus on fenbendazole and metformin in terms of treating prostate cancer as of 2021?
Gleason 4+3, PSA 7.8, T2C M59 (my father). Looking for different ways to treat his prostate cancer including non-orthodox like Fenbendazole and metformin. What evidence we have as of 2021 to efficacy of these treatments? Even if anecdotal?
