Calquence and AFib
2 weeks ago I received the wonderful news that I was in remission; something I never thought would happen. Bad news is 2 days later I was in hospital with A Fib thanks to Calquence. Had to stop taking the chemo obviously and am now on heart meds. Trying to get the medics to talk to the haem team was

Hi I was deemed inoperable after 4 rounds of
chemotherapy
. I had a diagnostic camera, and was sent back to have 2 further
chemotherapy
treatments. During this time I decided to go for a second opinion with Professor Christine Fotopoulou, as she was recommended to me.

Update on cabazitaxel
I started chemo with cabazitaxel on July 3 here in Nicosia, Cyprus, where I live. PSA at the start was 83. It fell to 61 after the first treatment, and way down to 20 after the second on July 24. The third treatment was yesterday, July 14. I had chemo with docetaxel in 2022, when PSA fell from

CYSTOSCOPY NEGATIVE August 2023
Hey Ladies and Gents. The urologist/oncologist says we can stop the monthly chemo infusions since my urinary bladder looks free of any neoplasm. And next April (2024), if it holds, I’ll be cancer free for three years and can get back on the lung transplant list. “Let your last thinks all be thanks

ED no more
My case is unusual in as much as I was diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer four years ago. A bone scan identified many areas where I had bone mets, even one between my shoulder blades on my spine that looked like structural surgery was inevitable. My PSA topped 1000 and I had zero treatments of any

8/4/23 Update questions for MO
To review, after 19 months on Lupron, Zytiga, prednisone, PSA increased on 1/23 to 0.253, then 0.309 on 2/21. Plarify scan showed only one active site in hip which was radiated. 4/4 PSA dropped to 0.24 which indicated the lesion was knocked out and I would be hormone sensitive and stay on Zytiga. Yea

Radium-223 + Xtandi?
I’ve been on chemo (cabazitaxel + carboplatin) since Jan 2022 and also on Zometa and Lupron. PSA went from 1.3 in Jan 2023 to 11.7 this month. CT and Bone scans show bone mets somewhat stable but with activity, all bone no soft tissue. PET PSMA earlier this year did not show enough tracer activity

Why no maintenance medication?
I was diagnosed with stage 3C1, grade 3 endometrial cancer October 2022 and had surgery, chemo and 25 sessions external radiotherapy. I haven't been put on maintenance medication to prevent recurrence. Is this usual? Are others in this position? I live in the Uk.

clinical trails for metastatic castrate resistant pc
It appears my husband may have become castrate resistant. PSA has risen from undetectable <.1 to now .2. We speak with oncologists on Wednesday. I believe he might have the possibility of radiation as a treatment bc he was oliogometastic at diagnosis 15 months ago. He had chemo along with hormones

1st reccurence and a 1 year prognosis
my mum is currently tolerating her second line of chemo after a ‘significant’ reccurence just under a year after frontline. Her oncologist has supported her medical retirement and wrote her prognosis is less than a year. How can this possibly be :(

Was Chemo "Successful"?
I just had my first PSA test after waiting to allow the results to mean something, after 10 rounds of doxytaxel. I was supposed to wait three months but for convenience pushed it by a week. I was hoping for a close to 0 PSA but that is not the case. I see my oncologist in a little more than a week

Good Morning, I am a newbie. I live in Suffolk, near Ipswich and was wondering whether there were any others near me who would be interested if I were to set up a local support group to meet up. I had stage 3 ovarian in September 2021. I was operated on and had 6 lots of chemo. To date I have
