Need Help Interpreting My PSMA/PET SCAN
About a month ago I posted the results of my Prostate MRI and got some very good advice through this forum. The Prostate MRI report recommended that I get a PSMA PET/CT. I had the Pet Scan done at City of Hope and received the results today. The ONCOLOGIC AND POTENTIALLY ONCOLOGIC FINDINGS are as follows

Hi! I'm new and excited to meet others and learn about your journey
Good afternoon. I'm new to the group. I already posted an item, but thought I should introduce myself. I was diagnosed with Stage 1 breast cancer in 2010. Had a mastectomy. Went on tamoxifen for 2 years, then quit because it made me feel miserable. No chemo. In 2022, I was once again diagnosed

Docs who prescribe mebendazole and metformin
HI! I am currently taking letrozole for metastatic breast cancer. I am also doing the COC protocol, but only with mebendazole and metformin. Just curious, are any of you getting mebendazole or metformin from any other docs than COC? Thanks! Sue

It's all about delivery (not PC related but worth reading): Car T cell therapy used for brain tumors
“This suggests to us that there is important interaction between CAR-T cell therapy and the host immune system,” Brown said. Future changes to CAR-T cell therapies could be designed to further optimize the treatment, Badie added. “We could deliver agents into the tumor microenvironment to engage the

Good news on the bone density front
Hi, this group is helpful and supportive and feels like an extended family. So I just wanted to share a bit of good news. I had a DXA 18 months ago not long after starting Prednisolone and my scores were: -0.1 in the spine which was healthy but not so good in the hip: -1.9 Total Hip T score

my prostate cancer
Diagnosed in November 2022. Favorable intermediate with Gleason 6 & Gleason 7 (3+4), with 4 less than 5%, and low Decipher score. On AS. 13 months later, one year MRI showed “concerning” images, with irregular capsule (visible), and extra capsular extension probable (interpretation from radiologist).

Surgery was hugely succesful, thank the Lord! 😇🙏
Going into surgery with stage 4 clear cell cancer a week ago, I was advised they will take out all cancer they can see & will have a better understanding of spreading & the way forward.Woke up to better than that! They got it all out, easily & cleanly, full radical hysterectomy and appendix. Signs they

Ablation
Hi All, I am wondering if anyone has gone the ablation route with non small cell lung cancer? I had cyberknife in my lower right lung back in 2011. It was effective with minimal side effects. In 2020, the cancer came back in my upper left lung. Now in 2024, it is back in my upper right lung. Apparently

not so great Petscan
Friday I had my first Petscan after two cycles of Ibrance and one on Kisqali. I was really hoping for all good results. Unfortunately, it was a mixed bag. My metastasis is my my lungs and there were three spots, two were biopsies and one too small was just assumed to be my breast cancer cells. Well

Proton Treatment - When to start the ADT relative to simulation and CT of the prostate
I am talking to two radiologists who have a strong difference of opinion. One radiologist tells me I should start ADT two months before I do the space OAR, markers and simulation, and then start the radiation. Another doctor tells me I should start the ADT at the same time as I do the space OAR and simulation

Pleur x catheter
Update:- good news: l don't need pericardial effusion window surgery. - l did get a pleur x catheter placed last Friday. The procedure went well. I've had 2 drainage at home so far. - l would appreciate showering advice. I wrapped the dressing in place and seal plastic wrap but water still seeped into

lymphedema from prostate cancer, any advice on how to manage?
One of my dad’s biggest issues with prostate cancer is severe lymphedema from the waist down. He used to just have it in his right leg from lymph node removal during RP. Since being on the lynparza in January both sides have swelled up as well as scrotum and everything else below the waist. He was told

Advancements on drugs delivery: interesting review (and with drugs I meant medicine!)
A review on advancements in the application of starch-based nanomaterials in biomedicine: Precision drug delivery and cancer therapy, just one of the many delivery strategies that are being developed sometimes I forget that we have plenty of chemotherapeutics, also new ones that can diversify our strategy

Pluvicto and low Hemoglobin
Hi all, My dad received his second infusion of pluvicto on February 14. About a week ago his hemoglobin dropped to 65. After a unit of blood it went up to around 85 and then every 3 days or so it drops back down the high 60’s. My dad does have prostrate cancer in his bones and lymph nodes. My question

exciting clinical trial
My very long time (20 years!) MBC changed from E+ to triple negative a few months ago and yesterday I was looking on line for clinical trials for TNBC and found one that looks exciting to me, whether I qualify for it or not. It's sponsored by Lyell Immunopharma and targets CAR T cells. I have no idea

Heading down hospice road too…
I’m so sorry to hear about your dad 😢 I’m in a very similar situation with my dad, age 71, Gleason 9 with Mets to bone, lungs, lymph nodes and now a tumor in his bladder. Zytiga worked for him for years, but last January started with more bone Mets and lymph nodes, zytiga restarted and failed. Tried
