Finally , tests done and a consult.
Gleason 3+4. PSA 8. After MRI, biopsy and PSMA (clean), . I finally met with doctor. He seemed more interested in removal. I told him that was off of the table for me. He referred me to an RO, but I have a second consult set up Friday with Univ of Cincinnati. I was confused by his explanation when

Nodular Melanoma
‼ The most common sites for nodular melanoma to present are on sun-exposed areas such as the head and neck, also often found on the trunk in men and legs in women - but it can appear in other areas of the body. They grow fast, downward and become quickly invasive (within months) so early detection is

Your cancer treatment record
Just before my o&v treatment commenced I was given ‘your cancer treatment record’ a little blue book, supplied by cancer research uk, as a place to jot treatments, questions, symptoms ect. I’d actually forgotten about it and wrote a small diary of my treatment. Yesterday I was reminded of it as I spoke

Reviewing my final Path report, post RP
A friend tipped me to this site AFTER my RP. (I'd read everything my surgeon gave me, plus googled a ton of stuff, none of which made any sense to me. My MD GF, GP, and surgeon all strongly pushed RP, so I did it.) I've learned more on this site in 9 mos than I did with all the above in a year. Thank

Help on what to expect with this 6 month follow up?

This is by far the best overview paper I have seen on the topic of AR metabolism and the nature of treatment resistance for mainstream SOC drugs currently in use. Recommended reading for those wanting to more fully understand their disease. Here is the Abstract: [i]

Stats
I’ve looked at various survival stats for metastatic PC. Most vary by some degree. The second chart on this site show overall cause of death stats for men at different age groups. It’s interesting to see that “unintentional injuries” are the leading cause of younger men’s death. Cancer is #4 on

D3 lowers estrogen in blood!

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

Why is cancer so hard to cure?
Asked why we haven’t cured cancer, Professor Glen Boyle doesn’t hesitate: “Because it’s bloody hard!” Rather than one disease, cancer is a constellation of more than 200. It’s been linked to mutations in between 500 and 1000 genes (of the 20,000 or so in each person). “We are literally trying to tackle

Squamous Cell carcinoma of the Rectum
Hello all, I was just diagnosed with squamous cell rectal cancer. Tunor is in lower part of the Rectum and has spread from close to the anus to the second fold in the Rectum. I'll find out what stage next week when I meet my surgeon but I believe it will be stage 3 or 4. 3 inguinal lump nodes one one

Long Story then Question: Ibrance or Pikray?
BACKGROUND. On 20 Feb, I had five or six cancerous lesions ablated from the liver. The PET done right afterward indicated one lesion left. On 6 April, that lesion was ablated but a very bad thing happened. The ablation instrument slipped and made a hole in my colon. I have been down and out, ever

Albumin
New paper below [1]. About 18 years ago, a man who headed a PCa group in CA told me to forget PCa-related markers - the best indicator that a man wouldn't be around in 6 months was albumin. My albumin had been 3.9 at diagnosis. I worked to reduce sub-clinical inflammation via polyphenols (inhibitors

Another nodule immediately after chemotherapy.
Hello everyone, I had an upper left lobectomy in November 2022. In January 2023 I had a CT scan pre chemo which showed a nodule on the right lung of 6mm. The oncologist put me on antibiotics for two weeks and the next came back clear so I started 4 cycles of Cistoplatin and Permetrexed. Another scan
