A heavy heart at the loss of my dog, Stevie
She was my light. She was my life. She was my time waster. She was my reason for going for a walk and I think she was my reason for living.. My little girl Stevie died on Monday at noon after getting ill on Sunday morning I rushed her to the vet. They kept me waiting for four hours. They took her in

Liquid Biopsy
My mom's onco is suggesting liquid biopsy as she does not have good site for tissue and lately not responding to treatment regimen. Her cancer shed lot of cancer cell leading to very high level of CA125 on other hand. Does anybody have experience with liquid biopsy and have a suggestion for a good lab

New to this…just saw my PSMA
Howdy all. Let me give you a little back ground. I was having some “back” and stomach issues in June and all of July into August. Blood work looked fine, a mass was seen in CT scan near my rectum and lymph nodes in back were swollen. I work in Europe some and traveled for work. My PSA came back at 166

Female Hormone Blood Tests and Testosterone Gel Question.
I've been weighing up the merits of asking for some testosterone gel on NHS. I didnt want to proceed without knowing my female hormone status so I carried out a Randox health home test last week. I already take HRT in tablet form, my results seem ok. My testosterone is in range but looks low, ditto

Mindblowing (and hopefully actionable soon): Innovative In-Vivo Reprogramming to Transform Cancer Therapy
it could work also in the context of cold tumors like prostate cancer! The bad part, they think they will be ready for clinical trials in 2 years. A new immuno-oncology approach is being developed to reprogram tumor cells into dendritic cells directly within the patient, bypassing traditional cell therapy

Docetaxel - how many rounds did you have?
With my husband's recent PSA reading of 5 (down from 162 before we started chemo), it appears still to be working for him. Our MO plans to continue as long as it works and his body tolerates it. Other than being a couch potato and having digestive issues for one week out of three, he's doing okay.

Back, neck and shoulder massage
Hello ladies. Im panicking again. I recently got diagnosed with stage 1 low grade ovarian cancer. I had all of my pelvic/par-aortic lymph nodes removed, none of them had cancer cells in them. My oncologist said a massage is fine. But I am worried about the missing lymph nodes. Not from the point

Studies re: PSA > 0.5% after RT
Can anyone interpret the gist of these studies? Correct me if I am wrong (and I sure hope to be) but from what I am gleaning, it seems that for those who have RT and a concurrent round of ADT: 1) Researchers and studies are showing that waiting 18 months to reach a post RT nadir isn't necessary to determine

I got my results from PSA/PET last week, showing no metastatic activity anywhere, bones and lymph nodes clear. My last Gleason score was 4+3 in 1 sample, 3+3 in 2 more same side, but focus of intraductal cancer in 2 cores on other side. Last PSA 5.3 in February, stable between 5.0 and 5.8 last 2 years

Proton or Photon
Hi all, my wife and I are trying to determine the best choice for my prostate cancer. The biopsy/pet scan showed advanced prostate cancer with spreading to the right seminal vessel and involvement of one lymph node. We have had our first consult, locally, with a radiation (x-ray/photon) Dr. who suggested

psa rising
After a second rise in psa from .04 to .21 in three months we decided to meet with a medical oncologist to discuss next steps. I am inclined to get a scan to locate pc but it may be too low. I have had surgery followed by salvage radiation followed by a scan and pelvic radiation so I may have exhausted

Lung cancer
Diagnosed with lung cancer very high in lung, Doctor says it's very difficult to get for biopsy, and then tells me that as I weigh 130 kg I might not be suitable for radiotherapy, is this right?

Re running following illness
Just completed week 5 run 3. I’d been dreading stepping up to 20 minutes running, however, not as bad as I had been expecting. All in the head!!! Starting again after being diagnosed with rectal cancer and undergoing a colostomy operation in May. I was feeling pretty down for a while, thought useful

I'm happy to have advanced prostate cancer.
...well, rather than having brain cancer, or lung cancer or pancreatic cancer... In contrast, CaP is the one to choose. Oh.... we didn't choose? Most likely it was Dow Chemical (or one of the other 9 entities that produced 2-4-5-T (Agent Orange) that gave this to me. Nope, no military. I was drafted

Theoretical dosage from a LU-177 injection
Hi ! I’m trying to teach myself facts of the different types of treatments I’ve gone through. When having LU-177 injections I never really talked with my MO regarding dosage (actually GY). Saw a new study ( https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10116658/ ) where they are planning two arms

Pik3 CA mutation
So I recently had a liquid biopsy done because after seven years on Ibrance and letrozole my cancer has spread in my bones and also two lesions now on my liver. The report showed the Pik3 mutation. Has anyone else been told they have that mutation and what the recommended treatment was?
