Finished my second treatment last week. My PSA went from 10 to22 after the first round. Today after the second round it dropped to 15. Anyone else have a jump after the first treatment and then continued to decline for the remaining treatments. I have failed chemo and xtanti and have read that

Lymph Node Irradiation for a Potential Cure
I have read that some men have been cured from earlier posts that I have read. Currently I have been on abiraterone and Lupron for 21 months. I only had one docetaxel, before catching pneumonia, so chemo was halted by my oncologist, stating the chemo would kill me before the cancer. The one chemo

Continued Journey
Getting my forth chemo treatment today. This has been much easier than the O CHOP. It has been smooth sailing especially with the surgically implanted port.( I forgot to mention). I am starting to notice some fatigue and energy slow down which is quite natural. One more chemo treatment tomorrow then

hair loss
I was wondering what others experience has been with hair loss during docetaxel. I completed my 10th round on May 2. After my first five treatments, I didn’t really lose any hair, and then the last five it got thinner, but I still had a decent amount. Now, over a month since my last treatment I seem

Five years later
Good day to all fellow warriors, I used to post as Arnie1970, but that account stopped working. After the initial scare of a stage 4 cancer diagnosis, a lot has happened. Four grand children were born( two boys, two girls). I stopped working, and we traveled a lot. Even though I stopped writing.

Looking for vitamin C infusions in Perth, Western Australia without glutathione?
Dear all Vitamin C infusions were tremendously helpful for my Dad in 2017 when he was diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer and underwent a prostatectomy, chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Now trying to find them again. Those I have found include glutathione which I think is not good with cancer.

Myelofibrosis- GVHD graft, versus, host, disease.
Hi, thanks for accepting me onto your site. My name is Gary, I am 64 years old and was diagnosed with Myelofibrosis in July, 2024. It all started when I began to feel lethargic and very tired, I had no inspiration to do anything. I was a taxi driver and was only managing to work one or two days a week

Travel insurance
I am finally in a position to go abroad after 18 since my diagnosis. I’m halfway through my chemo after a reoccurrence. Can anyone recommend a good insurance company?

PSA Rising and Falling during Chemo
I have been receiving chemotherapy since November 2023. Started with Docetaxel until it failed after 7 cycles. Switched to Cabazitaxel and currently on the 5th cycle.

Cancer Cell Blood Test
My oncologist has suggested I get the cancer cell blood test done. Has anyone had this test? What were the results? I have had severe side effects on all chemo and cancer drugs and my Oncologist has recommended it.
