Definition of metastatic versus non-metastatic
Hi, I'm confused. I was told that once the cancer leaves the prostate, it's metastatic. I've also heard that it's non-metastatic until it metastasizes to bones. My PC has spread to my lymph nodes but not my bones (according to scans), what am I? Thanks.

BAT & Abiraterone / Enzalutamide resensitization
BAT is bipolar androgen therapy. Men receive cyclic high-dose testosterone injections while on ADT. IMO, BAT is best started along with ADT because it may delay CRPC indefinitely. There are numerous reasons for CRPC & not everyone will respond to BAT at that stage - particularly in heavily treated Abiraterone

Great pain killer
Not really a question but I've discovered AZO pain killer really works for urinary pain etc. within 20mminutes feel so much better. Not a cure of course but what a relief ! Doctor has me on 25mg nitrofurantoin for a month. The colour of my urine when taking AZO is bright red/orange. Doesnt interfere

Anhidrosis
Hi everyone, Hope you are all keeping safe and as well as possible in these challenging times.

They mention an advantage of real world results vs "clinical" study results. Interesting

No risk if infected by covid19
I've just read an article stating that we're not at any increased risk should we catch this virus. Whilst not scaremongering, I find this highly improbable, given endometriosis is an inflammatory disease, the continued response by the immune system to this, meaning a cytokine storm is more likely, should

Now breast, lung, bowel and prostate cancer can all be treated in a WEEK as patients receive shorter courses of radiotherapy.
Thousands of cancer patients are set to be spared from weeks of back-to-back hospital visits ā after studies and trials have shown that five days of treatment, or even less, can be just as effective at blasting away tumours. People having radiotherapy, which uses powerful radiation beams to kill cancer

Secondary bedwetting
My daughter is 8 and a half. She has been dry day and night for 5 years no problems ever complete bladder control. Since April she has started bed wetting completely out of the blue. After it started happening a few times we thought it canāt just be a one off. So we limit drinks in the evening no drinks
