Docetaxel and headaches?
I had my first cycle of Docetaxel Chemotherapy last Wednesday. I have been waking in the early morning with a blinding headache and struggled to sleep at all after that. This has happened for 5 nights in a row now. I rang up my care team yesterday who said they would contact my specialist but I've not

My father has metastasized prostate cancer. What are the odds with chemo?
Hello all, I recently found this forum and this is my first post. My dad was diagnosed with prostate cancer 10 years ago in 2012, with pelvic metastasis in 2018. He’s been on all types of medications, and he shares very little about it with me unfortunately - it’s likely because I’ll be worried. But

Lumbar nerve impingement
I responded to another post about index numbers on scans. This generated a question about symptoms from the nerve impingement that showed up on my recent MRI. I decided to answer in a new post. My MRI showed a new lesion pressing on the root of the nerve where it leaves my third lumbar vertebra. Here

3rd Rituximab Infusion One to Go!
I believe that the Rituximab infusions seem to be working. WBC back in normal range. RBC up but still a little low. My Haptoglobin has stayed the same at 14 which it has been for every test on record since September. I am wondering if anyone knows why that is and if I should be concerned. Thanks CBCWD

Dexamethasone transition - process?
Hi all! As a follow up to my last post, our MO has prescribed 0.5mg of dexamethasone to be taken with Zytiga. That's miracle #1! Miracle #2 is that we got an appointment with Dr. Deanmeade at Johns Hopkins to discuss BAT. (My previous post detailed that my husband's PSA is rising rapidly - doubling time

How to restart unresponsive adrenals?
Long term (12yrs) steroid user (Betamethasone now and Prednisolone at the start) for Asthma. I have Steroid induced Type-2 diabetes and high blood pressure amongst other things. Adrenals are unresponsive to the injected 'infusion' test. I've been advised by the chest consultant at my local general

Rituximab, given weekly for 4 weeks experiences?
I begin my treatment for cold autoimmune hemolytic anemia, in January 2022 with a single agent of rituximab, given weekly for 4 weeks. This will include dexamethasone with the treatment to reduce any allergic reactions. I know each treatment is different for everyone, but I am wondering what it was like

As I have been writing these posts I have recognized that I haven't shared this level of detail with my family. I certainly

Post rituximab drop in immunoglobulins
I had severe platelet and neutrophil levels at diagnosis, and they did not recover until 4 days of high-dose dexamethasone after my eighth rituximab infusion. I am now back in mild neutropenia and my immunoglobulins have dropped below the lower limit of normal. Have othes seen this?

Chemotherapy Maintenance
I have now just started chemotherapy maintenance with Pemetrexed. Hopefully the side effects won't be as bad as the combination I've just finished. Still on the Prednisolone for the inflammation of my right lung due to Radiotherapy side effects. On a reducing scale now but stopped for a couple of days

Losing my determination
I was diagnosed with NSCLC in mid 2019 after extensive tests at a hospital with a specialist dept for diagnosis and forward treatment. One primary tumour in each lung and 2 lymph. They passed me over to the Oncology dept once diagnosis was complete. First was Pembrolizumab which gave a tangible improvement

Completed 10 whole brain radiotherapy sessions
Hello Everyone, Hoping you are as well as can be. 10 days ago I finished WBRT. I was diagnosed with progression to brain in March this year after a year previously being diagnosed with lung, liver and low volume bone mets. I'm surprised that I managed to dodge the radiotherapy for 7/8 months! I have

Newly diagnosed bechets
Hi all, Iv been back and forth between rheumatologist, eye consultants, dermatologist and the rest for over a year and a half now. Firstly they thought it was lupus, then porphyria, then a few others chucked in the mix - now I’m finally down to bechets with a small possibility of periodic syndrome.
