Progression of BC Mets
I have had a good run of my Ibrance, (in different dosages), and Letrozole combination since 2017 after 1st Mets diagnosis. (History ER+ Her2- BC) Now I have progression and I'm not sure my doctor is going down the right road. She is suggesting Kisqali and Faslodex. From what I've read, Kisqali would

Detection of a bacterial infection: Procalcitonin test
How to figure out if antibiotics should be considered ? There is a blood test measuring levels of Procalcitonin: if it is below 0.1 ng/mL, a bacterial infection is very unlikely, so antibiotics would be of no help. My question is: how reliable is this indicator, especially on the false negative side

Lump on back after chest drain
When i developed a pleural effusion last June the hospital did a couple of drains before fitting me with a semi-permanent drain. A few weeks ago I developed a lump under the skin, exactly where the hospital drains were done. This lump is growing quite quickly and is now very painful. I had an ultrasound

Piqray fail-only Fulvestrant now?
Hello all. As a follow up to my original post, I finally got an answer today from my oncologist that because of my Piqray fail due to the extreme hyperglycemia and multiple adverse AEs, they are going to administer Fulvestrant only along with quarterly Zometa injections. I feel like this may be going

In the UK Olaparib only seems to be available for those testing positive for BRCA. Is this a cost issue that it is not widely available?
My partner has advanced PC with tumours in ribs, spine and iliac. He has been stable on Zoladex for 8 years but this may now be changing. We insisted on a BRCA test which has come back negative but from what I understand Olaparib is only being made available to patients in the UK for those who test

asking for a friend (really) oncologist referral Chicago or Mayo Rochester
I am an open book for people newly diagnosed with prostate cancer and often hear from friends of friends. Looking back on my journey, I feel that I too quickly went the surgery route after consulting with a very good urologist/surgeon/oncologist and I erred not consulting with a Medical Oncologist first

Not great news for hubby today. What is next?
Just updated my husband's profile so you can see his journey from 2016. Oncologist today said to continue the Abiraterone for another month and see where we are at with PSA results. Was up again today. He did have 6 rounds of targeted radiation last month, so would that cause PSA to go up. We were hoping
