Looking for a good Urologist at UCLA or in Los Angeles Area
I am getting some bleeding in my urine. Three times now... always at the end of the stream. My primary care doc is telling I need to see a Urologist. It may or may not have anything to do with my prostate cancer. I think probably not, but then again everything does. Had IMRT radiation treatment

MRIdian/ViewRay compared to Ethos/Varian
I'm looking at 20 IMRT treatments from one of the above delivery mechanisms. Based on my limited understanding, MRIdian will track the position of the prostate in real time and stop the radiation if any movement of the prostate occurs. The Ethos benefit appears to be the ability of doctors to create

Apalutamide (Erleada) Only Lasted 6-7 Months! What Next?
After being on Apalutamide, Lupron, & Xgeva, since April of 2022, & PSA drop from 7.3 (extensive bone mets.) & a drop to 0.1 (for 2 mons.), PSA rose to 0.6 over 3 mon. w/o lab work because doing so well. So, don't know exactly when it started to rise but the rate of increase is geometric! MO wanted

Docetaxel or not?
After 4 years of Active Surveillance my Gleason went to 7. I had a 6 month Lupron shot and Proton radiation 7 years ago. 39 treatments. After 6 years of nothing my PSA started to climb up to 1.98. Did an Axumin scan and found two mets in my lower left pelvic Lymph Node. Took a Lupron shot and got

First ever PSMA scan shows two small bone lesions
I recently posted about my father who had just completed IMRT and three years of Lupron (no mets seen on bone/CT scans). At the time his MO was suggesting adding Zytiga per studies showing its effectiveness with ADT at diagnosis for localized high grade cancer (he is Gleason 9). MO also ordered PSMA

Ring the bell day tomorrow!!
35 rounds of IMRT and in month 3 of 6 ADT after failed RALP. Glad to put the daily trips in the rear view mirror. Head to Mexico in a couple months to celebrate. Fingers crossed for a long time to any new BCR. My hats off to all you warriors enduring your journey.

Radiation and Large Median Lobe
I went to my first Urologist appointment because of urinary problems. A DRE discovered a lump that was diagnosed as Gleason 7 (3+4). It was also discovered that I had a large median lobe that was likely the cause of my slow stream and urgency. There was a discussion between my Urologist (wanted to

IMRT WITHOUT SPACEOAR PROTECTION (EPE) WORRIED ABOUT RECTUM PROBLEMS (PROCTITIS) & IMRT (20x,28x,???) vs SBRT
I am going to have to have IMRT for 20 treatments at UCLA as opposed to the 5 Sbrt treatments as the EPE on reread on my Biopsy identified the extracapsular extension. My Ro thinks that: Not to have spaceoar as it may trap the Extracapsular extension microscopic cancer cells . IMRT has more data than

Father’s MO now recommending adding Zytiga
Hi all, my dad is nearly three years from diagnosis of Gleason 9 with evidence of spread to local lymph nodes (see profile). Has had IMRT concurrent with 3 years of lupron. Latest PSA 0.03, <0.02 6 months prior. Original plan from MO was to do Lupron for 3 years which would end 2/23. His recent appointment

Flying for the first time since my asthma diagnosis
I’m newly asthmatic (started treatment end of January - currently on Ventolin and
clenil

inhalers) I’m relatively well controlled but it is all still very new to me. I’m due to travel on a plane next week for 10 hours and I have no idea how my asthma will be while on the flight.

Radiation a second time? Recurrent PC
I recently had a PSMA scan done that showed my recurrence is in the prostate and three Iliac nodes ( none enlarged). I had IMRT done 17 years ago, my question is anyone familiar with doing a targeted course of radiation a second time? I will be doing Provenge after the first of the year then researching

Stuck between deciding on IMRT CONDENSED and SBRT with 4 months ORGOVXY- Have Jan 12th date to make decision for UCLA (meet with Dr. Kishan)
I will give you the facts as I know them and who recommends each therapy:
1. I live near UCLA so convenience is not a factor ,however 20 IMRT treatments is more than 5 SBRT Treatments.
2.

IMRT CONDENSED -4 Months ADT VS SBRT -4 Months ADT
The finding of the ECE after review by MSK increased my cancer to higher risk by my RO's. They are split , one recommending IMRT with 4 months rather than SBRT alone. The other recommending SBRT with 4 months ADT.
RO says their is more long term data with IMRT Condensed (20 treatments)

Proctitis from Radiation
I had 27 sessions of IMRT in 2019 for prostate cancer. Even though I had the SpaceOAR procedure, I believe I have some rectal damage. Every now and then when I wipe after a bowel movement, there will be a bit of raw blood. I did have hemorrhoid surgery in 2008 but didn't see any blood through the years

Probiotics for Radiation Associated GI Side Effects ?
I’m on round 4 / 28 of IMRT to my prostate, pelvic lymph nodes and right hip. Things are generally going well except for some mild nausea and abdominal cramping. Some have suggested taking probiotics. I’m not a yogurt fan so don’t want to try that. Other suggestions for brands I might try? TIA
