After your endometrial cancer diagnosis, did you do any research? If so, where did you find the most useful information about your cancer?
I was diagnosed in 2015 with Stage 1A Grade 3 endometrial cancer. I had a robotic hysterectomy, with BSO and removal of 16 lymph nodes, followed by 6 rounds chemo and 5 of brachytherapy. After chemo, I was followed with CT scans every 6 months until 2018. From that point, I have not had a recurrence

The endo biopsy revealed cancer
The doctor sends me to do
chemotherapy
, but I don't want its side effects, I want to live the rest of my life healthy without help or pity, and I'm already alone anyway ðŸ¤ðŸ˜¥. Do you think I'm doing the right thing?

For those who have followed me, my pc has taken a backseat to my Glio tumor. I had SBRT and Eligard for my PC in June after my 2 yr vaca and that seems to be addressed. Since my last post, I have had brain surgery to debulk my Glio followed by radiation/chemo that all went surprisingly well - i have

Hello everyone, I had a GBM stage 4. Had surgery in August Sept 22. I had 80% tumur removed. Had radiation and Chemo, I am on my second lot of Chemo upto November I think. So with MRI's. Last 2 has stayed the same no growth. I find it quite hard to stop sugars and carbs. I need dark chocolate now

Interesting PSA observation
For my prostate cancer journey, please see my bio. In 06/2023 I was also diagnosed with testicle lymphoma, maybe as a side effect of earlier radiation. Testicle has been removed, PET/CT & co showed no other evidence of cancer. So I perform four cycles of R-CHOP chemo regimen. Why I post this here? After

Verzenio and gray hair
This is a strange question! Has anyone noticed less graying of their hair since taking Verzenio? After my chemo and total hair loss, my new hair growth was salt & pepper colored, mostly gray looking. So when it was long enough I started getting my hair colored brown as I did precancer. A year later

Radium223 has not been a success, is Enzalutamide a good next option?
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

Kidney failure and future treatments
After that, he started
chemotherapy
with DOCETAXEL as the oncologist declared he was castration resistant. Since then, he had 3 rounds of
chemotherapy
and although he seemed to respond well at the very beginning, his PSA went up since this month (it was 10 by the end of March, and 23 now).

Not well!!
I guess I just need to vent. I had 4 infusions of Enhertu and then a pet scan. The scan showed lung inflammation and tracheomalacia. My doc said no more chemo. She wants to send me back to Boston because she said they have more options. To be honest, I’ve been fighting this for 20 years and I think I

Had my 2nd appt with my Haematologist today
She said it is not really like main stream
chemotherapy
and the small risk is worth it to give me a good quality hopefully long life free from a debilitating stroke etc.

Rapidly Rising PSA
As some of you know, I am now under the care of two excellent oncologists, including Prof. De Bono at Royal Marsden Cancer Centre. I was originally deemed to have a non-aggressive cancer (in 14 years my PSA has never exceeded 4.1) However, over the last 6 weeks (when I have been on no treatment whatsoever

Triplet Therapy Failed. Now what?
Doctor started with hormonal treatment while waiting for him to regain some strength, added Abiraterone (Zytiga) and Docetaxel
chemotherapy
as soon as his body could handle it effectively starting triplet therapy.

PSA went from 0.97 to 0.99 during chemo treatments. Should we be concerned?
Hi all, My dad is currently going through chemo. History of his diagnosis is in my bio. He was diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic prostate cancer in March this year. We started triple therapy and just finished 4th dose of chemo. His latest blood results showed PSA of 0.99 however the ones 3 weeks before
