Celecoxib and Meloxicam, cyclooxygena-2 inhibitors, delay recurrence and reduce PSA velocity in patients with non-metastatic prostate cancer
Abstract Introduction: A common treatment for localized prostate cancer (PCa) is radiotherapy; however, effectiveness is hampered because of toxicities and tumor resistance. Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors have been identified as potential agents that could improve treatment outcomes and have demonstrated

Facing my dad's dying days
Hi all, I feel like my mind has been spun around and now is facing in a totally new direction. This past week, my 98-year old dad completed his radiation treatment. Things felt very hopeful. His pain level has been way down ever since he was diagnosed with the cancer just over a month ago. The drugs

Gerson therapy: juicing
Hi all, New here. Primary caregiver for my 98 year old dad who has stage-4 prostate cancer diagnosed 3/9/22. He started lupron, and completed radiation treatment this past week. I am caring for him in his home, and started hospice care several days ago. I liked our hospice intake nurse that assessed

Getting the most out of Radiation: Radiosensitizers
This is my season for more radiation treatments. This coming week I will have 5 SBRT treatments in 5 days to two newly identified small lymph nodes found on my latest PSMA scan. One in the right pelvis (external iliac) and the other in the abdomen near the celiac plexus. The latter now makes my "officially

Exercise & Radiosensitivity.
New study below [1]. It appears in the journal "Sports Medicine - Open", where authors pay to be published, although the papers are peer reviewed. But "Sports Medicine"? Isn't that akin to paying someone to bury your PCa paper in the middle of the Sahara? Perhaps not, if you are still reading. Some

I need some input
I wrote in a few months ago with a more favorable seeming diagnosis, but little factual information, and left feeling like i had plenty of time to decide on a course of action. After meeting last week with Dr. Johnson at Huntsman Salt Lake (who I really liked, btw), I now need to get on the stick it

Radiotherapy at Guys hospital anyone? I need to make a decision!
So it is decision time. My 1.5cm AN has grown in a relatively short time to 2.2cm, pressing on the brain stem and I have been given the option of surgery at Kings or radiotherapy at Guys hospital. The MDT is leaning 'marginally' towards radiotherapy being the better option but there is a 3 to 6 month

Prostate Cancer Foundation : ADT: What You Really Need to Know .. "Who should not get ADT? "
"Who should not get ADT? Anybody else with prostate cancer. If you just have a rising PSA after radiation therapy or radical prostatectomy, that is not a good enough reason for a doctor to put you on ADT. If your doctor wants to put you on ADT to “shrink your prostate” before brachytherapy, that’s

Anybody else had spread to eye orbit
Hi, just wondering if anybody has had lung cancer spread to their eye orbit. I had already got mets to spine, hip and femur. Everything responded really well to targeted therapy at first scan last July, by Oct scan, bone mets and lymph nodes still good, but although classed as stable lung showed ground

lung cancer and secondary. spine cancer
A few weeks ago someone posted a message online which made me think they were in a very similar position to myself and they asked a question which felt very relevant. I have lung cancer. I had an operation to remove two growths on the right lung, then radiotherapy on the left lung. I now have cancer

radiotherapy
I am nearly halfway through a course of radiotherapy with the aim of curing my lung cancer. I was just wondering if anyone else has been in a similar position and if so, at what point do you start to feel the benefits of the treatment. I seem to feel worse as the treatment progresses. Thanks

Has anyone with TP53 changes been diagnosed with Li-Fraumeni Syndrome?
I know TP53 plays a role in diagnosing and treating CLL, but I also found that Li-Fraumeni and TP53 are related. I was wondering if anyone here has been tested and diagnosed with Li-Fraumeni as well as CLL. Here is additional information on Li-Fraumeni: https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases

Vmat rapid arc radiotherapy
Has anyone got any experience of this? Scans at chemo 1 showed ongoing faint prostatic activity after 3 x Lu-177 and whilst on Degarelix My primary treatment to the prostate was HIFU so apart from early Lu-177 I have had no radiotherapy to the prostate. My London RO also has me lined up for radiotherapy

Overthinking? OR Imagination Running Wild?
Over the past few years, likely due to numerous (negative) human interactions and/or decisions or events imposed upon me, I often find myself visualizing the worst possible outcome of a future situation. Not in an immobilizing, "worrying" way, but just negative. I believe I began subconsciously doing
