quick update
just spoke with my urology nurse consultant, my PSA is now 0.05, looks like the hormone treatment is working, looking like radiotherapy will start April/ May, I’ve got a personal trainer sorted out and a diet plan, and the effects of the hormone injection have eased, so I’m feeling positive Regards

Next Move?
Briefly, I had Radical Prostatectomy in February of 2018, ADT with Salvage Radiation ending in September of 2019 and undetectable PSA until August of 2022 when it increased to .09, then .12 in October, and .22 in December. Finally, .34 in March 2023. I just received this message from my Oncologist

hi, I’ve been reading your posts with interest as I’m in between diagnosis at moment and trying to gain as much information as possible. I was diagnosed with breast cancer last March had surgery, chemo and radiotherapy. Towards end of chemo started with severe back pain which oncologist was great at

Incontinence after RP and ADT
I had a RO approximately 2 1/2 years ago with a recurrence 12 months later. I have had 37 sessions of radiotherapy and am in month 16 of 18 hormone therapy in the UK. My incontinence seemed to solve itself around 12 months after RP but never fully. In the past 12 months I still suffer from minor involuntary

Does anyone else get the abdominal aches that last weeks after a flare up?
Hello, does any one suffer for prolonged periods with abdominal aches after a flare up of PRD- related bowel issues? I had radiotherapy as part of treatment for rectal cancer back in 2020 and have LARS in combination with PRD. My main symptoms are bowel-related (urgency, clustering, overnight incontinence

Small Vestibular Schwannoma
On 12/21/22, I was sitting at home and my left ear suddenly began to ring. It did not stop, so the next morning I called my doctor and set up an appointment. He wanted to make sure that I didn't have a sinus issue, so he put my on some common sinus medication for two weeks and told me to advise

Having pectus carinatum and PC would radiotherapy or chemotherapy affect the strength of the rib cage structure?
I have PC but also epilepsy which I have had for over fifty years, over 400 + seizures thus weakened my rib cage structure [affected by pectus carinatum/pigeon chest] over the years thus likely to refracture. I have had radiotherapy but would that or chemotherapy affect the bone strength of my rib cage

Post radiotherapy side effects
Hi folks. Completed my radiotherapy treatment in July 2022 for prostate cancer.Starting to pass a little blood and mucus in my stools at times. Was wondering if this was a delayed response to the radiotherapy. Has anyone else experienced this ? Thanks in advance

Has anyone got any information or experience of a AN that is cystic? I have been to see the specialist to discuss options and it seems surgery is pretty much my only option. Radiotherapy is being discussed with the MDT but unlikely apparently due to the risks of swelling after treatment and the cystic

No more PSA tests until 6 months post radiation?
Hi all, it has been a while since i've posted but have been following the posts pretty much daily. I hope all is going well. I am just posting on behalf of my father today. He did ask this PSA question to his team and they told him that this is the standard practice. So.. they may be right but I of course

Sub acute small bowel obstruction
I had pelvic radiotherapy some 40 years ago and have had chronic radiation enteritis and bile acid malabsorption for the last 20 years or so. Recently following a routine unrelated abdominal CT scan I've been additionally diagnosed with sub-acute small bowel obstruction, which I'm assuming is secondary
