Surprising TRT research results in PCa patients
I’ve been researching the implications of testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) as it relates to the odds of biochemical recurrence with prostate cancer. I went down this path because my prostatectomy surgeon, who is very well respected in the field (200+ papers) and has performed over 5000 surgeries

PSA Rising and Falling during Chemo
I have been receiving chemotherapy since November 2023. Started with Docetaxel until it failed after 7 cycles. Switched to Cabazitaxel and currently on the 5th cycle. Since starting the Cabazitaxil my PSA has been raising and lowering. I am currently having some scans done to confirm if there is progression

drugs repurposing: another promising path!
not yet tested for prostate cancer (I think) but still… “But two years after starting a treatment regimen that combined ruxolitinib with the checkpoint inhibitor nivolumab—a current standard of care—87% of patients were still alive, and 46% stopped exhibiting signs of cancer progression altogether.”

Clean Keyo diet while on Lupron
Has anyone used clean Keto to lose weight without muscle while taking Lupron? I gained 20 around my middle mostly because of inactivity from fatigue. I am committed to change but cannot afford to lose any muscle. I am not thinking keto as a long term or permanent way of eating, only to force my body

PSA level from 4 (Dec 2023) to 22 (present)
Hello, I am posting on behalf of my father. He tested a level of 4 PSA back in Dec 2023; the doctor did not say much except try to keep your stress level down, etc. He felt things were feeling quite abnormal so went back to doctor April this year and tested a level of 8 PSA so he was finally referred

USP or API sources for different NDT thyroid brands
Hi, I was wondering if anybody has information about which NDT brands use which Desiccated Thyroid Extract (USP or API) sources and where these USP/API sources are manufactured? I am particularly interested to know about Armour, NP and Erfa and even the new brand Adthyza.

some news: new phase 0 trial for new radioligand gives good results

Importance of CLL Specialist
This excellent study was just published. Why should you get a CLL specialist? My community oncologist gave me a fish and a flow test and told me that I wouldn’t need treatment for 3-5 years. He didn’t test for IGVH and didn’t know that there is a specific TP53 test. My CLL specialist tested for 500 mutations

Castrate Resistant
I know that patients who were started at beginning with combo of, say, Lupron plus abiraterone acetate are declared castrate resistant when PSA rises in certain ways and/or progression is shown on scans. However, for someone like me, who's been on Lupron only since diagnosis, am I not castrate resistant

Radioligand Therapy May Improve Radiographic Progression–Free Survival in Taxane-Naive Patients With Advanced Prostate Cancer
Too late for me...but it looks like Pluvicto (and I think radio ligands in general) is moving up in the ladder to reach the first line treatment option https://ascopost.com/news/june-2024/radioligand-therapy-may-improve-radiographic-progression-free-survival-in-taxane-naive-patients-with-advanced-prostate-cancer

Colonoscopy
Just have a question. I was put on a 5 Day taper of 16mg of prednisolone. I took my first dose today along with a one time dose of diflucan. Will I be ok to have my colonoscopy tomorrow?

Eosinophilic Oesophagitis from ADT ?
Following some recent episodes of choking on fluids, I have had an edoscopy plus tissue biopsies which show eosinophilic oesophagitis. This can be simply described as an inflammatory disorder of the oesophagus due to food based proteins or other substances. I have some very long standing food allergies
