Ascites issues
I have recently been diagnosed with stage 4b womb cancer spread to ovaries and abdomen. My worst symptoms have come from ascites. I have had 2 chemo cycles and was really hoping that it would dry up by now. I have had 2 drains and although it is in no way accumulatiling like it was, my concern is that

Chemo Stopped working what's next? T Cell Therapy?
To Believe it I have been told once the chemo stops working the next step is the T Cell Therapy have you done any research on this talk to your doc and see if it is an option for you.

Just a quick question.
Hi everyone and thanks for all your help so far. As the chemo has now stopped working for Martin we are looking for any other options that might be available to give him more time. His MO has organised a liquid biopsy to see if there are any mutations that could be treated, which might help. We

Update and question about Olaparib
Its my 60th birthday today! Glad to still be here! CT scan was stable but CA15 continues to rise on Trodelvy. CA15 is an important indicator for me.

To Bone marrow biopsy or not to bone marrow biopsy that is the question.
Hi everyone, I’m not sure if this is the right forum. Previously it was thought I had pernicious anaemia (I’m in that forum too) but then they weren’t sure. I am on B12 injections (3 monthly but my levels of that are good at moment). I was referred to Haematologist last year due to low white blood cells

Dad's PSA now 1800..nothing works..Is this the end??
Hey all, It pains me to write this as I'm probably scared to hear the truth. I've posted a few times, but this time, it's different. Dad was in hospital for a spinal cord compression - new activity on c3, new mets to spine and PSA soaring to 1800. Those dreaded words, "all options have been exhausted

Sclerosis due to cancer or treatment?
I recently developed sclerosis in my left hip area...painful to sit on a hard surface. PSMA tech wrote 'sclerosis developed consistent with treatment'. Oncologist seems unconcerned. I've read that sclerosis can sometime happen when ADT reduces tumor size, which means the bone has to adjust. The recent

Next step options after lupron/zytiga failed
I have been on monthly Lupron for 7 years (starting in 2014) after the spread of prostate cancer to my bones following a prostatectomy in 2014. Lupron alone was very effective until December 2021. I then added Zytiga/Prednisone which had worked well. But current (June 2024) scans show substantial disease

Phase 3 trial enrolling: MK-5684 Versus Alternative Abiraterone Acetate or Enzalutamide in participants with mCRPC

(SENSITIVE) Do we try again?
I’m 36, so lucky to have two beautiful, healthy children (both ICSI babies), but I had always dreamed of three.

Chronic cough and Enhertu
Have had mets to my lungs for eight years now and progression has been relatively slow with periods of stability. Interestingly, though my mets in my lungs haven’t materially changed since last year (though too many to count most nodules are less than 1cm with a few in the 2cm range), I now have a chronic

feeling abandoned
hello I have posted on here before, I was first diagnosing in 2020 Stage 3C. I had absolutely no idea on that day I was to be told this devastating news. The Consultant that day never even looked up from his papers and just continued to write. When I looked shocked he said you must have known of

Lansoprazole
Anyone taking Lansoprazole as well as Levothyroxine? If so how do you take it? I always take Levo first thing on empty stomach but apparently that’s how you should take Lansoprazole. I have been told I need to take it as I am on daily aspirin and now chemo tablet daily. Anyone else could advise please

Jevtana
Once again I am asking for any information that can be provided from this great group. Would appreciate any information for Jevtana treatment. At doctor's appt yesterday, my husband's hemoglobin had decreased to 7.6 and he had to have a blood transfusion. His Alkaline Phosphatase went up again.

Not sure how to help/plan
Hi all, I'm not really sure what I'm looking for, but felt like typing this might somehow make something better. I'm late 30s, single, only child, single parent, no other family left alive. My mum was diagnosed with stage 4B ovarian last August. She's done chemo (CA 125 down to 6), and debulking.

Ca125 started to creep up ( lymph nodes ) so back to chemo which seemed to work but 5 months later its back. Told

Signifficant PSA LEVELS
I'm an 81 year old man who has had an enlarged prostate for several months. PSA tests levels 9.1 and 8.1 (several months apart). My Father died of prostate cancer, which had spread to other parts of his body. Follwing a Digital Anal test, my prostate was reported as "smoothly enlarged and sulcus palpable
