Firmagon vs Lupron
So, the question is what are the up or downs if switching from Firmagon to Lupron. I used Orgovyx until it didn't work, switched to Firmagon. Wanted either due to family history with heart issues. Dad, uncle's, brothers, all having issues. One brother recently having a major HA... But the convenience

Rising T Bili on Xeloda
Hi ladies!! my mom has been on xeloda and her T bili continues to go up last few weeks. Her last scans showed shrinking lesions on liver. Her Tumor Markers went up 28 points this month. Her scan is bumped up to next week . She s checking for blockage that would require a stent in the liver I guess

Mum getting biopsy results tomorrow
Hi all, my beautiful mum is getting her biopsy results tomorrow (Friday) but has been told she has a tumour and there is potential spread to lymph nodes and that the plan will be chemotherapy and immunotherapy.

Barrigel is now preferred over "SpaceOAR" gel?
Consulted by video with the doctor who is supposed to install my SpaceOAR in preparation for my IMRT. His first words were "we don't use SpaceOAR gel anymore. We use Barrigel." He explains it has fewer side effects but the same radiation absorption characteristics. Here is what "UroToday" says:

colonoscopy and endoscopy concerns
I am scheduled to have a colonoscopy and endoscopy in 1 week.

I have never had an endoscopy but I do have a cough that seems to start after

In vivo & in vitro: CRISPR 9 new approach to attack PCa proof of concept
The idea is to use the CRISPR technology to tweak prostate cancer cells so that they build up a specific type of compound (called porphyrins) that is usually harmless unless exposed to certain types of light. In people with a condition called porphyria, these porphyrins naturally build up because of
