Had surgery on June 22nd and I have stage 4 OC that doc described as aggressive
I asked doc if this a situation for palliative care and she responded that she wants to cure me. She said the OC has not invaded my bladder, but it was growing on the outside and she scraped the cancer cells off. She also examined the length of my colon and scraped off the cancer cells on the outside

Anyone not following LCHF
Is it just me? It is clear that not everyone on this site is following the same diet; there are maintainers and there are dieters following different guidelines to maintain or lose weight. Yet, I am left with the feeling that if I do not support and adhere to a LCHF diet, then I am …. I am not quite

Pulmonary Fibrosis, irreversible and terminal,
I was diagnosed 12 March 2020, when lung function hadn't improved after recent bacterial infection. My lungs were already, very scarred, so this infection was the tipping point. Question is, as it is a unpleasant way to die, and already discussed with my GP, palliative care, it will get more painful

Why liver patients have such a hard time
I wanted to write this last night but I fell asleep. Nothing unusual there then!!!! In the last 2-3 years I have ‘visited’ one Consultant or another about some of my symptoms. The most valuable lesson I have learned, from so doing, is that the Liver Medical fraternity themselves are unable to fully

Dear ladies, I am so sorry to have to let you know that Anne, my Ovacome friend from Cornwall, has passed away this Sunday, 21 of June, at her lovely home.

New Here and Glad I’ve found this Group – Anyone done Proton Therapy?
Intro Info – I’m 66 relatively good health, obviously gay. During a routine physical I had a slightly elevated PSA score of 4.3 so my primary care doctor recommended me to a Urologist. After some discussion we decided to do a biopsy. The result from the 12 cores was not what I wanted to hear. I was hoping

Is the chicken-off still going? Buffalo Wings....
I am just enjoying buffalo wings. That's fried or - in my case - baked chicken wings tossed in butter/chilli sauce, accompanied by a blue cheese dressing. Today, that is a Shropshire Stilton dressing 😋. With traditional celery and a tray of baked veggies, because if I am turning on the oven in this

Is There “SBRT” for Lymph Nodes
My RO says while my bone mets can be zapped in a few days my para-aortic lymph nodes will take about 28 days of radiation (has to do with proximity to the bowels). I recall that SBRT could have brought my 30 days of IMRT radiation treatments to my prostate down to 5 or so treatments. Is there an equivalent

the time has come - 3 years from diagnosis
It has taken me 2 weeks to be able to tell the final chapter. On the Saturday it was stormy and the palliative care helps came to give Ch a shower. Then the afternoon was visitors. We has not seen them for a long time and Ch wanted to be in the wheelchair to see them. The conversation was full of memories

INTENSIVE CARE - Covid-19
Hi all, My Dad is very sadly in
intensive
care
on a ventilator with Covid-19. Very difficult as obviously can’t visit and reading the news and stats his prognosis is not good. I thought I’d read on here about other conditions with similar presentation in terms of what’s going on in ICU.

Hello!
New person to board looking for a Gay (happy?) perspective. 60 year old. Gleason Score 7, MRI 2 spots RADS 4 1x1, & RADS 5 1x2, 27cm3 total. PSA last time was 10 and rising (Feb). Looking to get it treated. Have Chrohn's Disease so two surgeries (scar tissue) mean that robotic surgery is not a thing.
