Hair Loss
My husband (David) is beginning to lose some of his hair from Chemo treatment do all patients lose their hair on docetaxel (taxotere). It is falling out in a lot of strains when he showers. Do all patients on this chemo lose all their hair or does it just get thinner. He has had no other bad side effects

RIP TCEInvestments
With deep sorrow I am letting you know that this poster has finally lost his prostate cancer battle 1/25/24. He valiantly and relentlessly fought for 22 years and was Stage 4 for 8 years. With no more treatments available except another round of chemo with a different drug which his body could not withstand

Maintenance Chemo

Final Pluvicto treatment completed
My husband had his 6th and final Pluvicto treatment on January 19th. I don't attend these appointments but the Nuclear Doctor said his bone marrow looked good and labs were steady. I took lemon Squares for the staff for the follow up Scan. Scans have shown little changes after all these months but

Please send me some positivity.
I have just had the results of my CT scan and I have been told I have a recurrance in one para-aortic lymph node. I will either need surgery (if they can), chemo or radiotherapy. I'm so scared as this is my first recurrence from Stage 4 ovarian cancer and I'm only 56 and have two teenagers. I can't

Post triple therapy options?
This past summer, I wrote because my husband's PSA numbers started doubling very quickly. (see quick recap below) By the time we got the PSMA PET scan a few weeks later, there were too many tumors in the bones to count. We jumped into triple therapy: Eligard, Nubeqa, and chemo. David's last chemo (6

life after treatment
Hi I was diagnosed with stage 3 high grade cancer in March at the age of 54. I am wondering if others have been diagnosed at a similar age as I sometimes feel I am the only one. I had a surgery last year followed by sepsis and a stay in hospital! My chemo finished in mid September and I am now NED and
