Are endocrinologists of any help after ADT?
After ADT, my MO told me that handling things like Prolia management won't be in her bailiwick. I didn't ask about post-ADT SE's and recovery from same. Hot flashes, low T, BMD loss, and last not least sarcopenia. What is the community's experience with how post-treatment SE's are best handled? Are

Podcast Episode with Abraham Morgentaler, MD about Testosterone and Prostate Cancer
This great podcast, "You are not broken," is by a female urologist, Dr. Kelly Casperson. She often explores misconceptions about hormones.

My husband has metastatic prostate cancer. We went through all the treatments including 5 pluvicto treatments. Even though his scan shows improvement in some areas it continues to spread. Maybe this is due to no meds such as Xtandi to stop the spread. I'm trying to get more information by reading people's

CTC circulating tumor cell count
I haven’t seen too much mention of CTC tests when PSA rises. Some rises at very low levels are not clearly correlated or confirmed by PET scans. So why isn’t CTC used, too expensive, inaccurate, most men lack a baseline test? Just curious if anyone tests this and what their experience has been

Breast dimpling post Lumpectomy?
Hi there! Anyone notice breast dimpling after lumpectomy? It has been 6 months after my surgery and I’m seeing 2 distinct dimples showing in the surgery area. I’m thinking it could be from the scar tissue?

Some good news…
I’ve been trying to figure out some extreme lower back pain, and had another PSMA/PET scan today. I had visions of cancerous spread to my spine, and wanted to check things. Well, while it didn’t solve my back pain questions, it
did
gave me some
good news.

Any enzalutamide for chemo?
Tall Allen recently posted about a trial in which taking enzalutamide during docetaxel chemotherapy might help get the PSA down. Abiraterone failed for me recently and I’m re-challenging with docetaxel. I’m based in the UK, and NHS protocol doesn’t allow this. Should I go off -piste and take enzalutimde

Mums recurrence
My mum found out on Friday her cancer has recurred after 11 months. She will start 2nd line treatment of Carboplatin and Caelyx soon, 6 sessions, 1 every four weeks. Does anyone have any positive stories they can share with me to offer some hope. We are devastated!

Robotic wedge lung resection
During my pet scan a lung shadow was reported. Biopsy failed to get tissue but Drs. do not think it is from the stage 2/3 prostate cancer. They recommend a wedge resection via a daVinci mechanism to remove it. I'd like to hear from someone who has had that surgery but since it may be tangential to this

'Benign' cyst removed and has turned out to be in my bones and lungs and obviously in my skin. ER, PR + and HER-. All my research tells me I am doomed as skin mets are meant to be terminal?????? My oncology team were so upbeat, started on Letrozole and Ribociclib and Denosumab. I have no symptoms

ADT duration for high risk with Cribriform
Hi all, Age 72. In good health. I'd like to get some advice on my case. Should I stop ADT after 12 months? https://bmcurol.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12894-022-01145-x I just consulted with my RO. I’ve done 11 of 18 months on Eligard. He wants me to stay the course. He spoke about the possibility

Expanded label sought for 177Lu-PSMA-617 in prostate cancer: about time
I have already done the taxane part and I would like to see how 177Lu performs as first line...but this is also interesting, it seems more effective than a change in ARPI in castration resistant setting "Data also showed that a PSA decline of at least 50% was more than 2.5 times more frequent with 177Lu-PSMA

Is there an "oligometastatic state" for prostate cancer (but not in breast cancer or lung cancer)?
The concept of an "oligometastatic state" is that there exists an early stage where metastases are few in number and are in some way different from metastases that develop later. It also means that there are no micrometastases in systemic circulation (in bone and lymph) and in reservoirs like bone, nerve

Bronchoscopy
My mom was diagnosed with pneumonia 2 weeks ago. Unfortunately 10 days of antibiotics were ineffective. She had a bronchoscopy today and while waiting for results, I was wondering if anybody else was in the same situation and what did the bronchoscopy show?
