How to find a master of the cyberknife?
Hi all you fell AN sufferers (warriors), My vestibular schwannoma although small has protruded a bit into my porus (whatever that is - must look up) and the consultant radiologist says: offer radiotherapy.

ART ASCO GU 2023: Testosterone Recovery Following Androgen Suppression and Prostate Radiotherapy (TRANSPORT)
There are many studies that show TET recovery for men treated with RT and ADT. Most show delay is correlated to the time spent under ADT treatment. I have seen some posts that purport 5 year [u]average timeframes[/u]; this appeared excessive. This study provides better data and timeframes that are

immunotherapies and DCVax-L
Hi all - my husband was given confirmed biopsy results (after a debulking operation) last week of grade 4 GBM. His treatment plan is 6 weeks of radiotherapy with chemotherapy, then 4 weeks rest, then 6 months of chemo. I'm interested in people's experiences of immunotherapies, particularly DCVax-L -

Treatment options
Hi all. I have very recently been diagnosed with a Stage One lump. I saw my Surgeon two days ago and was given to options. (1) Lobectomy (2) Radiotherapy. I do have some thoughts of my own, but I would appreciate any advice before I make my decision.

Radiotherapy
Next week I go for radiotherapy for a lumpectomy. I have 5 days of it, being fair skinned I am worried about the 'sunburn' effect that it will probably have on me, as I stay out of the sun due to burning. Not to mention, the feeling sick! Any suggestions please?
