Tumor Markers Trodelvy
Has anyone experienced tumor markers rising after 1st cycle of trodelvy?! Did they go back down after next cycle. Doc told me they could rise due to new chemo regimen and then they go back down because of tumor markers were overloaded. I’m a little worried. Internet says “Chemotherapy treatment can

Imbalance Issues from CLL treatment?
Hello, I live in Minnesota and was diagnosed with CLL in Oct 2022 and my oncologist at the Masonic Cancer Center put me on the O and V treatment which started in Dec 2022. I finished the O in May 2023 and the V in Dec 2023. Latest blood test has all my counts in the normal range except Abs Lymphocytes

Oncologist phone call today was not the news we were hoping for.PSA had been at 20 past 4 months and hubby was diagnosed as stable. Monthly PSA blood work is done and this month PSA jumped to 29.

Post 2nd line chemo options
Hi everyone. I was hoping I could ask for some information. I am supporting my Mum (76) who was diagnosed with primary peritoneal cancer almost two years ago, initially thought was stage 3c and as it had affected a lymph node it was then upgraded to stage 4. She was treated with Paclitaxel and carboplatin

7 days from BMT
Hi all, I know it's been a while since I posted. I just wanted to let you all know that I'm 7 days from transplant, and just had my first lot of chemo today. I will admit I'm scared that this won't work and I'll have done it all for nothing. I've been told my odds are good with a 10/10 sibbling match

Cabazitaxel - memory issues?
Anyone had "memory issues" with chemo? My oncologists disagree with each other on the risk of memory issues for me at age 73. I had some "normal" transient "brain fog" at age 66 with docetaxel. My memory is as good as it was decades ago. I don't see anything online about cabazitaxel causing memory issues

carbo/gem chemo
I’ve just been told today I have recurrence and go back in 6 weeks to see my oncologist to see when treatment will start. I’ve read conflicting things about hair loss, my onc said I will only get some thinning to my hair…but I’ve read quite the opposite and that I will have total hair loss. I’ve already

treatment without surgery
hi, I’m new on here. First sorry to read and see what you are all going through, you are all very strong and brave. It’s my mum that has ovarian cancer stage 4, had 6 rounds of chemo then surgery - however the surgeon couldn’t operate as there was too much cancer to remove. My question is, has anyone

Diagnosed under 55
I’m looking specifically for men and partners of men who were diagnosed with de novo stage four prostate cancer at their initial diagnosis. The treatments are different and unfortunately so it the overall outlook. The younger men are diagnosed with PCa, the more aggressive the cancer tends to be.

Anybody with good results on Xeloda?
I was on Ibrance and Letrozole, then Verzenio and Faslodex and then Orserdu. Since Orserdu now failed, the next plan is Xeloda. I read here some reports about some bad side effects. My oncologist at Dana Farber gave me some choices and indicated that in my situation, Xeloda might be best. The

Questions for those currently on or have tried Olaparib or Rucaparib PARP inhibitors. Recently published study on Rucaparib.
For those of you who have tried or are on PARP inhibitors, which one did you use and at what point did you use them? Was it before chemo or after chemo? Did insurance cover the cost? Looking at the NCCN guidelines, which my husband's MO refers to often, they suggest Olaparib (Lynparrza) before chemo

Pelvic Pain and spotting 9+ years post hysterectomy
Hi my mum had a full hysterectomy following a diagnosis of Stage 1C clear cell OC. 6 months of Chemo followed this. Since treatment and op she has been suffering with what has been described as chronic pelvic pain ever since. She had been told she cannot go on HRT as her cancer was Clear Cell. She

Info about docetaxel
I have been at Stage 4 for 7 1/2 years. and a succession of Xtandi, Nubequa, and Zytega along with Lupron has kept my PSA under two although each has eventually failed (PSA quickly rising above 1.0). My recent blood draw resulted in a jump from 0.78 to 1.29 while I was on the Aberaterone/prednisone protocol

Repeat Lutetium/ Pluvicto treatment
Hello all, I am just curious if anyone has experience doing additional lutetium treatments. I did three lutetium treatments from September 2021 to January 2022. My Denver oncologist is concerned about bone marrow toxicity , but he does not have enough experience with this treatment to say for sure.
