First line of treatment
Well, I finally got to see my oncologist at Fred Hutchinson cancer center today. And finally a treatment plan! This all took time because I moved from South Carolina to Seattle for cancer treatment and to be with my kids. My oncologist was grateful I had done all the tests and biopsies prior to my appointment

Chemo pills
My husband started his radiation and chemo pills Monday. It is recommended to take the pills before bedtime. After taking the pills he won't go to bed. He's up all night, going outside....it's like a teverse effect. Has anyone ran into this? Any suggestions?

Chemotherapy
I heard someone say that the drug companies still consider it a success if the Chemotherapy kills the cancer even if the patient dies from the treatment. Is there any truth to this? Thank you

Decision time!
After finding out I had progression to my liver in July and acute side effects to Everolimus after only 6 weeks, I have been advised there is further progression to my liver. So I now face the dilemma of no treatment and at best 6 months, or choice of chemo. My oncologist has given me 3 options, oral

My MO is advising Chemotherapy since I am Mcrp. . The MO said that no Adt will work . I have been reading that most people take Adt along with Docataxcel. I would love to prolong my life. I have concerns about QOL and what are the percentages of this treatment working with and without ADT? Thank

Now I've always had poor bladder control and that could be due to bladder sensitivity, BPH, or damaged nerves in my lower back or all three, or more. I've gone through
