DOES MEDICARE COVER DEXA SCANS FOR MEN WITH PROSTATE CANCER
I have been on Casodex and Eligard since June 2022. My PSA was still high after RALP so I had a GA-68 PSMA PET Scan done which revealed one 11mm tumor in the Left pelvic Lymph Nodes and one 7mm Tumor in the Right pelvic Lymph Nodes. Those were the only 2 hot spots in my body. My Dr. scheduled me for

Hallucinations
After my stay in critical
care
I was moved to
intensive
care
. When there I was pretty confused and saw things that just did not happen or real. Since I've been home I have really struggled to get over the mental side. My question is did this sort of thing happen to anyone else?

T and PSA basically undetectable. Is adding testosterone or having a colonoscopy 3 years post treatment a good or bad idea for the elderly?
Cancer in late 2019 was G9 with no indication of escaping the capsule. PSA was <10. Treatment initially casodex followed by one session high dose brachy, 25 sessions IMRT and 18 months Lupron. Currently PSA undetectable and T still <2.5. Pushing through a regular exercise routine but have no energy

Good News-But Do I Belong Here?
Hello all. I comment/reply sometimes (usually about exercise), but create posts much less often. It's been awhile though, and something has come up that prompts this one, Quick recap: RP in June '19 and a subsequent clinical trial beginning Sept '19 due to positive lymph node and seminal vesicle invasion

NEXT STEP IMRT
Just wanted to give an update on my treatment. Everything seems to be tracking along the same lines as we have discussed. Wanted to thank Tall Allen for the information provided. It has really helped me in talking with my Cancer Team. Knowing what to expect and being able to actually discuss my treatment

Does IMRT cause incontinence?
My doctor seems to think that a course of 9 weeks of IMRT on my Lymph node area and prostate to treat prostate cancer is not likely to cause incontinence for me. I'm 60 and I'm not sure he is right. When I think of causing incontinence I am concerned also in the long run. If in 10 years I would have

I also take .4 mg Flomax (I no longer have fainting

Still in shock,
Hello, the above says it all. Last October my husband of 30+ years went out to play table tennis and never came back. Long story short, an undiagnosed heart condition. Then 4 days after his funeral I was told the long Covid I thought I was suffering from was in fact advanced and incurable lung cancer
