Has anyone ever experienced this?
I had a stent fitted in August 2018 due to
coarctation
of
the
aorta
. Since around February 2018 I've been experiencing continuous chest pain that get incredibly worse at any given point. I have had more than a dozen trips to A&E due to this all with everything coming back as ok.

J Stent: How long can men keep using stent if TURP is contraindicated? Stage 4 man with mets.
I am a new poster but an old lurker. I was dx Stage 4 16 years ago with Bone Mets and told I had 6 months to 2 years to live. I just retired from being a social work consultant in a school district and up until now PCA has been a virtual disease and my quality of life has been good. I am 74 yo Stage

Urethral Strictures...TURP/PCa/Proton
Does anyone in our group have a experience with recurring urethral strictures which are a result of a TURP last August and proton beam radiation in the winter? I am getting these strictures now for third time since this all began. For past 4 months I have used catheter once a week for dilation purposes

incontinence 1 year after TURP
Just updating, I've still got incontinence 13 months after TURP. Slowed down a little but still there. Still get painful spasms. Anyone with a suggestion? Kegels aren't cutting it.

Zytiga and intermittent fever
Hello everyone, my dad’s oncologist wants to start my dad on Zytiga. Our only concern is my dad had sepsis about a month ago, two surgeries and is not eating well. Now he’s also been having intermittent fever. He was on chemo prior to the sepsis. The oncologist said it’s ok to proceed with Zytiga.

New Here
Here's my story: I was diagnosed in April 2016 when I was 70 years old. I had gotten up to play golf and noticed blood in my urine. Primary care doctor thought it was a UTI. It wasn't. He ran a PSA test. It was 14.7 and he sent me to a Urologist who immediately saw me when I was unable to pee.

Crossroads after failed Lu-177
Hello everyone, What a sad heading right?, Sorry, but this is not to break the hope that you you may all have for the treatments, MO told us on a personal level- that my father is really in the 5% unclucky ones where nothing works! So after these Lu-177 cycles (second time) Platelet and TLC count reduced

Sepsis
My dad had a TURP surgery on Monday. Was doing decent then yesterday he seemed flat. Went to ER and there was a clot in Cath. They gave him a bigger one. He came home and was lifeless. Ambulance had to take him to ER again later yesterday evening. He can’t put 2 words together - does not know his name

Is there a list w/summaries anywhere for clinical trials?
PLATO, ARCHES, LATTITUDE, STAMPEDE...I'm losing track (and my mind). :) On a personal note, we are home. The TURP went well and my husband had almost no bleeding. He said he felt better after the procedure than before. They cleaned out the clots in his bladder again and gave him an IV, so I'm not surprised

Can I discontinue Zoladex after I year instead of taking it for 2?
I am 77 years old and was diagnosed with prostate cancer through a biopsy taken during a TURP in August 2016. After watchful waiting the PSA started rising to 10.3 by April 2018. A biopsy and PSMA PET showed that I had a Stage T3N0M0 tumor (with a Gleason 5+3). After a Zoladex 0.8 injection on

Girding our loins for another surgery
Doing TURP tomorrow. My husband is still not fully recovered from his two-week stay following his kidney stone issue. Worried about his serum albumin going into this, but the surgeon thinks he's good to go and he wants to do it. Wish us luck. Hopefully he will recover well and we can move on to whatever

A Medical Adventure - HIFU
So glad to be back home from Germany after HIFU treatment. Alan had to have a TURP to remove calcium deposits followed by HIFU the same day since calcium deposits could have deflected the ultrasound beam. He had five days in the hospital. No suprapubic catheter needed and the catheter he did have came

Dad with prostate cancer
Hi, never knew this forum existed and I have been reading a lot in the last week. There is so much information here and appreciate reading everyone's experience. Unfortunately, my dad was diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer in January 2017 with a PSA around 110 and a CT showing enlarged right prostate

T2c N1 M1a
Diagnosed early March 2019, but pretty far along. 103 g prostrate - adenocarcinoma in 10 of 15 samples, all with Gleason 4+4 = 8, most samples show cancer at 60% - 100%. Metastasized to the retroperitoneal lymph nodes proven by biopsy. Strangely, the pelvic nodes seem normal. Last PSA 8.4, but none measured

Need help understanding bone density scan.
Had my first DXA Bone Density Scan and it scared the bejeebubs out of me when I read the report. My problem is I don't understand whether it is a serious issue, what may have caused it, and how to fix it.. First, my journey so far: November 2018 TURP with biopsy showed G9 Stage 5 with metastases in

3 Years Post Diagnosis.
Hey Guys, just thought I'd check in with an update as I haven't posted anything in ages. Today marks three years, since my Urologist delivered the news "you have cancer" followed soon after by "stage IV, spread to your bones in about a dozen places". I had just turned 49, so it was the last thing I was

Lost Another Round
June 2017, urination difficulties, Foley catheter took care of that. Biopsy and diagnosed Gleason 9, Gleason 9, Gleason 9, etc. Stage 4, metastases to bones, so surgery, radiation were out. Lupron "That will shrink the prostate so you can pee again." Nope. Still needed catheter and PSA went from
