MRI shows all mets have shrunk following radiotherapy and the build up of fluid that was causing pressure headaches has resolved, phew! The abdomen/thorax CT shows

Survival after Radical Prostatectomy versus Radiation Therapy in High-Risk and Very High-Risk Prostate Cancer
This just appeared in today's email. Apparently a database study of patients treated 2010-2016. At 5 years out, RP less cancer-specific mortality than RT.....the most significant advantage for very high-risk men. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34555930/ Not a randomized study, but will we ever have

RLS controls my life
I am totally overwhelmed by all your replies to my recent post and my RLS. I feel comforted that at last someone understands what we are going through. It’s so hard when people say oh yeah I get that. I hate it so much and what it has done to me. Thank you all so much for taking the time to reply

6 Weeks after end of radiotherapy -- Still having problems! - Comments please
Finished radio therapy, 20 sessions on lung, 1st December. I'm still very weak, sleeping during the day , try to go for a walk every morning but can only do about 0.8 of a mile. Are these normal reactions? Any ideas as to full recovery times?

Extrapulmonary small cell cancer
Hi everyone, My wife was recently diagnosed with extrapulmonary small cell cancer which presented in the breast. After having PET scan and brain MRI the cancer was thankfully no where else in her body. This type of cancer is very rare and the treatment is typically the same as for small cell lung cancer

Salvage Pelvic Lymph Node Dissection in Recurrent Prostate Cancer: Surgical and Early Oncological Outcome
While googling possible treatment of retroperitoneal lymph nodes I found this and thought it was interesting. I know this is not my husband's situation but others might be interested who haven't started ADT and who have slower moving PSA. Is surgery for RPLNs ever a good idea for recurrent prostate

Chiropractor or not
After falling out of bed about three months ago, I have been left with a whiplash sort of injury in my right shoulder. I visited a chiropractor who indicated that my whole back and right shoulder is very stiff and would benefit with some treatment. Four years ago I had breast cancer on right breast
