Digestive upsets with chemo
I’m hoping to have my 6th chemo next week fingers crossed (they have been delayed due to bloods) but for the last two times I’ve had tummy problems, I do have a hiatus hernia and acid problems but do take tablets but it seems to get worse !! I know chemo plays nasty things on good cells as well has anybody

Brother's numbers since ADT plus Orchiectomey since diagnosed in February
Hi folks. I've been reading daily posts here since February when my brother was diagnosed with metastatic PC in February after a reading of 367.8 PSA. Thanks for all the good information! Cancer is in his skull, ribs, lymth nodes, and spine. He had one ADT injection right away and opted for an Orchiectomey

immunotherapies and DCVax-L
His treatment plan is 6 weeks of radiotherapy with
chemotherapy
, then 4 weeks rest, then 6 months of chemo. I'm interested in people's experiences of immunotherapies, particularly DCVax-L - has anyone done this? or investigated?

Castration resistant in just a year? Normal or not? Provenge in my future.
I'm already "mildly symptomatic castration resistant." PSA tripled in the last 30 days (but still extremely low), after doubling in the prior 3 months. I was diagnosed with stage 4b (mets in multiple bones and nodes) ductal and started ADT 13 months ago. Nubeqa and Docetaxel (Triplet therapy) started

Feeling stuck
I have had breast cancer twice now, 2018 (stage 2) and 2022 (stage 1). I completed 16 rounds of chemo followed by 5 weeks of radiation over the summer. I got laid off from my job while on medical leave, and now I find myself stuck. Any tips on how to unstick myself and get the motivation to find a new

Think I can share my success story now
With that said, I was briefly a bit of a regular in the “Suicidal” thread on another Tinnitus support forum which is probably a good indicator of how I was feeling when my tinnitus initially worsened due to Cisplatin
chemotherapy

Richters Transformation
I recently informed here that after nine therapy free years since 2014 (FCR) my CLL bounced back in 10/2022 with an DLBCL and a suspicion of Richters. Biopsy and Lab tests predicted that. Therefore I was immediately treated with R-CHOP 14 CI Therapy first in Hospital one week and then within the ambulance

best treatment after Xeloda?
I was diagnosed with MBC in Feb 2022 with bone mets. I am HER2 low ER positive. I have been on kisquali, Ibrance, Faslodex, and lastly 4 rounds of Xeloda. Nothing seems to stop my progression, Kisquali sent my liver enzymes sky high. Ibrance/Faslodex progression was slow and markers rose. Xeloda

Enzalutamide any advice/tips for dealing with side effects
Stage 4 PCA for last 3 years. Had 6 cycles of Chemo and then Abiraterone for 18+ months (PSA dropped to 0.2 then more recently rose to 58 in June '23 ). Abiraterone eventually stopped working and I was able to join Radium 223 trial. Completed 5 of 6 cycles of Radium 223, then elected to stop since scans

First post!
I am being cared for by an amazing team and after finishing 6 rounds of
chemotherapy
I had surgery on 24/4/23. Complete faith in my surgeon. At surgery they could not remove a 2cm area in my liver area due to bleeding and close proximity to a large blood vessel.

First recurrence
Hello everyone, In May 2022 I was diagnosed with high-grade serous carcinoma, Mullerian primary, Ovarian cancer. Had 6 chemo treatments and debulking surgery. 10 months after my last chemo, I am faced with a recurrence. Can you let me know what your treatment plan was after your first recurrence?

Diet plan consultation
Has anyone got any information about diet or supplements? There was a post about berberine and 5HTP along with other medicines. My sister who is 43 years old has GBM grade 4. It was diagnosed in April 2023. She also had her tumour removed and radiotherapy in May/ June. She has hardly no feeling on her

CHAMP Trial/Small Cell Chemo Update
If you don’t feel like reading my bio, I’ll give a synopsis: My dad is only 53 with advanced metastatic PC that spread to his liver earlier this year. His PSA had been undetectable so it really threw us for a loop. My dad finished 6 sessions of carbo & etoposide chemo about 3 weeks ago. He is still randomly

Has anyone been diagnosed with bone marrow cancer as well as prostate cancer? My husband is getting ready to have a bone marrow biopsy to see if that is what is going on. I have read that chemo and radiation can lead to bone cancers😖
