Experiences with

Cancer and tumours

Completed 5 months of Taxotere 1/10/25 and stopped Orgovyx and Prednisone (iADT) on 1/23. PSA dropped from 15.5 to 0.07 on 2/20 but rose to 0.17 on 3/20. Don't like the doubling time. MO appt is 4/27 following 4/20 blood test. Assuming continued PSA rise I expect to be back on ADT and also getting

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

I have stage 4 PC, metas to bone. Now on Lupron and mostly painless. I now have pain on one side of my groin, and wonder if it's just a muscle pull, or whether the cancer is getting to the lymph nodes there. I did take a longer walk than usual last week. Any simple way of distinguishing between the

I am hearing more and more the word REVERSION (and I have written a couple of articles about preclinical phase), so here is another pearl. https://www.onclive.com/view/bioengineered-bone-marrow-model-reveals-potential-new-strategies-for-osteosarcoma-metastasis-control In the study, researchers used

At the moment still in shock. I’m an artist and I’m used to looking at other people and seeing them however I obviously haven’t seen myself. Outwardly I appear I think as I always have done but obviously I haven’t been looking closely enough at my health. I have not had any symptoms and when I

Even if you guys are ashamed about doing the exam of the prostate or/feel humiliated to do it,it's still your health and you should take care of it before getting a cancer if it can get detect as quick as possible.Prostate like breast cancer or uterus one are not a joke.I hope it can help donate for

Hi dear community, My dad who has been diagnosed with mHSPC and bone mets had his restaging after undergoing triple therapy (check bio for more details). So far we‘ve only seen blood results which looked encouraging with a dropping PSA and alkaline phosphate. However at his bone scan it said that

Good morning all, and thank you in advance for reading my post. Yesterday, my dad phoned me to say he has grade 5 prostate cancer after having an MRI scan, and it has gone through me like at atom bomb. He has been unwell since December 24. Thought it was COVID but never shook it off so started the

update… 12 years MBC Bones only until recently. Last pet scan showed a 1.4cm lesion on my liver which was in January. At that time I asked what could be done about my liver. Her response was basically nothing. She changed my course of treatment and my next pet scan is April 18th. I myself feel I should

Here we go, from a company that works mainly on anti-aging! A new small molecule (Telomir-1) has shown promising anti-cancer effects in preclinical prostate cancer models. On animal models implanted with a very aggressive form of prostate cancer, the compound reduces tumor growth by approximately

I have started radiotherapy for prostate cancer. So far only one session. The second one couldn't be done because of too much gas. I have been following the dietary advice but it doesn't seem to work as I has the same problem at the planning scan which was delayed. Has any body any advice

A long time between posts. I’m going to brief when it should be long. After reporting on good bone marrow and blood results from 100-180 days out, GI issues continued to be an issue. Colonoscopies, tests and scans finally revealed low grade GvHD and a virus CMV. Unfortunately, some of the scans gave

check my bio for history. I’m getting close to the “why not” try. My MO is hesitant, wants to go another round of Pluvicto (I was successfully treated about a year ago) oranother round of Chemotherapy. Although I do not think he is wrong, my opinion is these therapies would still be available should

My minds tells me that if before the actual treatment they want to check if the tumor expresses PSMA and STEAP2 the reason is that they want the theranostics to "stick" only to cancer cells that express both, to enhance precision...but as stated in the original article, that's my speculation. A Phase

My 64 year old husband recently had a prostate biopsy. Though his MRI showed no cancer, his biopsy did. His Gleason score in two cores is as follows: 3+3 and 3+4. His urologist said he's a candidate for watchful waiting. Are there any natural remedies that have been successful used during this watchful

Had first shot of ADT a couple of weeks ago, went from 7 psa to 1.2 before first round of chemo this week. Made it through round 1 - tired on days 3 and 4 with a head ache - no nausea. Is the score of 1.2 promising - is this a good outcome? I have been told that the goal is to be at .02 by 7 months.
