'Headspin'
I'm sure we have all had a 'Spinning Head' at some time or other, especially since being diagnosed with CLL. Many of us soon realise that CLL is soon joined by a host of other Diagnosis and Prognosis, which can overwhelm us at times,, thus the perpetual 'Headspin'. After five years of W&W, I was told

Starting on Verzenio
Hello all my fellow thrivers! After taking Piqray + monthly shots of Fulvestrant and Zoladex for more than a year, my latest pet scan revealed progression and found new mets in liver, lymph nodes and bone. Therefore, my oncologist is starting me on Verzenio 100mg next week while keeping my Fulvestrant

Paclitaxel and hair loss
hi everyone, I have just had my 3rd paclitaxel today, I am on weekly doses via IV and have no signs of my hair falling out? Not even a slight bit? I’m concerned that it means it’s not working, has this happened to anyone else or does the hair loss come a little later down the line?

Autophagy could be bad for those who have cancer?
I was already aware for a few years that autophagy, which is triggered by intermittent fasting and long fasts, is very useful to prevent cancer as it is recycles old damaged proteins that could otherwise turn into cancer and also because it helps your body produce new cells and refreshes your immune

Researchers from WEHI and Trento University (Italy) have answered an age-old question: which function helps mutant p53 fuel tumour growth?
The study revealed that the
loss of function
in the mutated p53 protein is the critical factor in cancer growth, disproving the previously suggested gain-of-function role. Using CRISPR gene editing, the researchers removed various mutated forms of p53 and found no change in cancer cell behavior

Progressing nanotechnology to improve targeted cancer treatment: not related to prostate cancer only
The article emphasizes the challenges in transitioning from lab findings to clinical applications, stressing the need for further research to optimize nanocarriers for cancer therapy. It explores the potential of nanocarriers and compounds for selective tumor targeting, including liposomes, nanoparticles

update: Zanabrutinib vs Obenven (O&V)
We are praying for Gods wisdom (James1:5), and we’re leaning toward the Zanabrutinib. The infusions and time and distance will be impactful to my husbands work and he’s prefer to go the simpler route. We learned he’s still 13Q and TP53 negative and his lymph nodes are reduced (we have used ALT for

continuing back pain
I was diagnose with 2b Ovarian Cancer in April 22. I had surgery and 6 rounds of Chemo. I have a very supportive team . I have had an MRI , CT and spinal x-ray all have shown degenerative changes to my spine. There is no evidence of recurrence. My CA125 is 13. The problem is I’m consumed with anxiety

Hi All, I had posted about a month ago about my dad with G7 - 4+ 3. We originally thought there were bone Mets but it just turned out to be another bone anomaly identified in the PSMA PET scan. We went ahead with RALP and have shared the final path report here. While the MRI showed no signs of

Having a mild pain where the surgery was done before 5 years
Hi, my surgery was done in 2018 and the surgeon removed maximum of my tumor. 5% of tumor was still left and because of that they keep a check on it with regular yearly MRI scans.This year I had my MRI scan done and the results were normal. But now suddenly today I am having external pain where the surgery

Brachytherapy and blocked urethra
Had brachytherapy two weeks ago. Was told everything went fine. Over next three days urinination became progressively more difficult and eventually had to go to ER (weekend) to get catheter inserted. Was told that this might happen but that after a period on catheter all should be fine. 10 days later

I was having problems weeing. My flow was awful and took ages just to do a dribble and so often as well. I had to sit on loo, because with all the straining I often pooped aswell. Desperate to pee, and if I didn't get to the loo in time I couldn't hold it back. I saw my doctor and had cancer test which
