treatment or no treatment?
it’s been almost 3 years since i was diagnosed with a Gleason 8 prostate cancer, confined to the prostate. To date I have elected not to be treated but instead have been monitoring my PSA levels. Originally this was 6 now 15. I am 66 with no symptoms and no other health issues. I have declined treatment

Newly diagnosed metastatic PC treatment options
Hi, I'm 68 years old. Here are the key points in my story so far: In July 2023 a blood test showed a PSA value of 45. On September 26 2023, prostate MRI showed a dominant tumor in the prostate with extension into the right seminal vesicle. Also the fat plane between the rectum and prostate is lost

A bio- engineering breakthrough is reported here https://phys.org/news/2024-03-method-car-cells-lipid-nanoparticles.html and the article includes a link to the open access research paper. Sorry, that's all folks. This is a phone and I'm on holiday. Italy shouldn't be this wet. Ciao.

CLL + Bladder cancer + prostate cancer
I've been diagnosed with Cll since 2016 and been on Acalabrutinib for 2 years which is working really well along with monthly plasma ivig infusions. I'm 63 and male and fit and active. I just got diagnosed with Bladder cancer with a medium grade carcinoma. My uroligist has burnt the 2 spots she found

1, 3 or 6 month ADT?
Originally, after a prostatectomy and 40 radiation treatments, I had a one month shot of Lupron followed by a six month shot of Lupron. My PSA went to undetectable. Seven years later my PSA crept up to seven and I was put on a monthly shot of Firmagon for life. My PSA is again undetectable and all scans

Likely secondary cancer but no information
hi I thought I had a cold and lost my voice back in early December, saw the gp first appointment after Christmas as coughing not stopping. Saw head and neck consultant in February and was told 10 days ago likely secondaries (5 years since initial breast cancers). I have a 3cm lump in chest plus enlarged

PSA Doubled in 2 Months
PSA end of August was 0.12 now 0.24. I met with 2 ROs to discuss treatment when my PSA was 0.20 a week ago . One suggested ADT 18-24 months and prostate bed radiation. Second RO says we can avoid ADT for now as he sees 0.70 as the value he believes requires ADT. I'm scheduled for F18 PSMA scan in early

another quick update
I am now back home . My gall bladder has calmed down so the plan is to have it removed in next 10 weeks ( that’s the waiting time ) My biggest concern now is that the CT scan I had on Monday has revealed a 5cm mass in my stomach. I am awaiting a CT biopsy which my haematologist has requested as
