Two for Chemotherapy, Both My Wife and I, Her with TNBC and Myself now with PCA Liver Mets
Today is Two for Chemotherapy My wife discovered a lump in her breast in November2023, called for mammogram and they, Montefiore NY, made her wait to January 16th, of course she didn’t know TNBC grows at approximately 1% a day. So, January 16th, they did Mammogram, MRI, Ultrasound and Biopsy.

Still Struggling with a Full Plate
I wish I could say that I have a positive update to the numerous situations I'm dealing with, but I don't. Sometimes I'm amazed at how I manage to get up everyday. As for the situation with my ex-employer.......I got a letter from his attorney on May 3rd. demanding payment of $35K by June 15. Half

Bowel and bladder problems after Radiotherapy
Hi, I am Maz and I am 76 years old, I still work but from home now. I have suffered with multiple sclerosis for over 40 years although apart from the early years it hasn't bothered me too much until 2013 when I was diagnosed with anal cancer stage T3. I underwent some chemo and a great deal of radiotherapy

Hi All! I was diagnosed in Nov of 2022 with stage 4b lung cancer and later, in May of 2023 with ovarian cancer. Not a metastisis but a second primary cancer. I’ve been a runner my whole life - almost 60 - and have lived a pretty “clean” life. So…all of this was pretty crazy. I had to go off the targeted

Clear Cell Progression
Here is an update on my treatment for ovarian clear cell carcinoma, which I guess has now moved into Stage IV (started 1a). My taxol/carboplatin & Avastin chemotherapy treatment was discontinued after 3 infusions, as CT scan showed progression of tumors, and invasion into my liver. The doctors at UCSF

A weighty issue saga
Greetings all, Let me start by saying I have always (for the last 60 years) been conscious of my weight. Even at 72, I am still 'hard wired' into dieting. Before starting hydroxy 3.5 years ago , I was 53kg and 164cm. My ideal range pre-hydroxy was in the 55-57kg range. Today I am 60kg. My hydroxy dose

Chemo Side Effects
On lupron since 2011, recurrance, SPLASH TRIAL, Provenge NOv 2023. Strarted on Taxatere (doxcetel) in March. My MO put me on an 18 infusion schedule (I believe 1/2 normal dose) because of my age, 84. I get infused ever week for 3 weeks, then 1 week off and continue for 28 infusions. I have had 6 infusions

In the UK Olaparib only seems to be available for those testing positive for BRCA. Is this a cost issue that it is not widely available?
Beej59• A few seconds ago•0 Replies My partner has advanced PC with tumours in ribs, spine and iliac. He has been stable on Zoladex for 8 years but this may now be changing. We insisted on a BRCA test which has come back negative but from what I understand Olaparib is only being made available

Dana Farber 2nd opinion?
I just got back my PET/CT results from yesterday. Bad! I have never had so much progression. Little spots, some new, some growing from last time, mostly in thoracic and lung area. Apparently, ribociclib (Kisqali) + exemestane didn't work at all. That is the last of the CDK4/6 inhibitors and ER inhibitors
