I’ve recently found myself discussing artificial intelligence (AI) with people—including some doctors—who had a very limited understanding of AI in medicine. Their knowledge was mostly confined to large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT or Perplexity, along with a list of their known limitations (many

How many are aware that radiation of the prostate & area will create a likelihood that future cancer will occur in the rectum, bladder and other area as far away as lungs. It's on the nih.gov site. It also says patients should be made aware of this. But no one told me or my husband. BTW. He is

Ultra-sensitive PSA (usPSA) testing after radical prostatectomy (RP) allows for the early detection of biochemical recurrence (BCR) at very low PSA levels (typically <0.01 ng/mL). While studies suggest it does not necessarily improve outcomes for salvage radiation therapy (SRT), it may have benefits

Had a review today with my EP who did a first cryoablation on me last year. The AF side seems to have responded well but Flutter has taken over and currently persistent. I'm now on his list for a second ablation to sort this out, he's very positive about a good outcome. However he told me this time

After having lymph nodes and right lung metastasis test negative for lung cancer and providing radiation, I am now being prepared for Provenge treatment. I still have upcoming radiation for a spinal lesion and left iliac lesion. Anyone with Provenge suggestions/thoughts? Thank you!

For the last five years I’ve been on and off of, Provenge, Pluvicto, SBRT, first and second generation ADT and currently BAT. I recently contracted a serious blood infection for no apparent reason only speculation by doctors that it was a UTI that jumped into my bloodstream through my kidneys. I had
