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

Gemzar was tough
I spent many years on Avastin since 2008 diagnosis. When I came out of remission from it. I was put on carbo/Gemzar. I had a bad reaction to the Carbo, so I had 10 treatments of Gemzar. I finally had to ask Onco to stop because I was losing my quality of life. Now that I’m off Gemzar, I’m hoping

When to introduce ADT after RP failure
I'm progressing well on Triplet Therapy coming up 12 months after Chemo and comparing myself to my brothers situation. He doesn't belong on this advanced prostate group but I hope his cancer does not advance to the point that he does! [i]Diagnoses[/i] [i]Biochemical failure following radical prostatectomy

Bladder & Urethra Issue
RP 2007 and EBRT 2009. I've had intermittent hematuria for many years and on 3 occasions blood clots have caused obstruction and inability to urinate. I've learned to self catheterize in these situations which has usually resolved the issue after a few days. This time it's more severe. Heavy bleeding

Genetic therapy: for solid malignancy hopefully soon
ok, I post them also because they are fellow Italians! But the platform is very promising even if clinical use has been approved only for glioma and glioblastoma at the moment. But there are clinical trials going on for solid tumors, prostate included. https://www.genenta.com/wp-content/uploads/2021

Is my recovery typical or more novel
I had 7=4+3 prostate cancer PSA=5.4 with a Gleason of 0.7. MRI showed the tumor had not compromised the wall of the prostate. It was an aggressive cancer genetically and was at stage three. Bad news but apparently ample margin for victory. I had ADT from 7/22 till 12/22 and received Proton beam therapy

Prostate Cancer (stage IV) identified in January and Small Cell Carcinoma (Neuro endocrine) in liver in August. Any suggestions?
In January, my dad was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer (Acinar Adenocarcinoma Prostate) stage 4, with PSA of 687. PCa had reached bones but not other major organs. He was put on Abiraterone and Degarelix. In August, PSA test showed that PSA had dropped to 2.7 and there was decrease in size and PSMA avidity

Financial Toxicity
I was following a trail of links regarding new and developed radiotherapies for advanced PCa. I found a new term that I had not seen before: Financial Toxicity. The one paper said that higher FT was linked to more aggressive cancers. Well, DUH! I've not seen anywhere where the cost of treatments

Repeat Lutetium/ Pluvicto treatment
Hello all, I am just curious if anyone has experience doing additional lutetium treatments. I did three lutetium treatments from September 2021 to January 2022. My Denver oncologist is concerned about bone marrow toxicity , but he does not have enough experience with this treatment to say for sure.

Radiation
I had the standard IMRT for my pca back in 2013. I was told it was a lifetime dose. Is that true with the newer forms of radiation treatment? I am faced with starting a six dose regimen of taxotere now since ADT does not seem to be working according to PSMA scans. My psa remains at 1.8 even though the

Nighttime incontinence
I had radical prostatectomy about 16 months ago. Radiation followed about 6 months after that. I am on Lupron and abiraterone now for about 9 months. Among other side effects, I have occasional bed wetting. I dont have daytime issues and never experienced any of that even immediately after surgery
