Pulmonary Node revealed with PET scan not growing
During my treatment for PC the first Pet scan showed a pulmonary node. There were no Mets beyound the prostate. Three DRs., Urologist, Oncologist and Pulmonary, did not attribute the node to the PC, since it was so far removed and there were no other mets revealed. A subsquent MRI 3 months later indicated

liver transplant in August 2021
My age is 46 I had a liver transplant in August 2021, but since the liver transplant, my health has not been going well, which means I have been experiencing pain in the whole body. Itching on the body which is cured by taking medicine. Abdominal swelling and a little more walking can increase severe

Deciding on dialysis vs. deceased kidney transplant at 76 years old
I will attain 76 years in August, 2024. I have been on hemodialysis since early May 2024. At one point I was eligible for only a living kidney. Now it looks like the transplant center will approve my placement on an urgent protocol so I can wait 3 years for a deceased kidney. I could live 10years

Transplanted liver now in trouble?
Hi All My husband had a liver transplant in 2017 and has been mostly well since. He had NASH cirrhosis and liver cancer. He had a set of bloods on Monday unrelated to his liver but his liver function was tested. We were called the next day as ther were some surprising results which have worried him

One year, one month post transplant
Hello. I post sometimes but apparently have not “officially” introduced myself. I received a deceased donor kidney transplant on June 11, 2023. I was incredibly lucky. I begged my family and friends to donate to me, but they all refused except one friend who got tested and his function was not good enough

Hi Everyone, I am a 42 year old man and I had a kidney transplant 1 year ago.
Hi, as stated above I had a kidney transplant last year. It has been very successful. Having said that I do have some anxiety because I have been drinking quite a lot of black tea this past couple of months. Stopped drinking it early part of the week. I am having irregular heart beats and some dizzy

working out / personal trainer
I'm 14 and half months post kidney transplant and my new kidney is in the right lower quadrant. I am going to start working out with a personal trainer. I wondered if anyone else has had work with a trainer and are there exercises to stay away from during this time? I was thinking like "crunches"

Treatment update-is SBRT missing the lesions ?
PET scan 8/21 following PSA 54.5 showed numerous bone lesions. Zytiga, prednisone, Eligard knocked PSA to <.064 until 1/23 PET showed new small lesion in left hip. Radiation 35 Gray 5/5 completed 3/15/23 with PSA drop then bounce from 0.24 to 5.9 triggered another PET on 9/6/23 which showed a new metastasis

I am hoping for some guidance for what to do next for my father. My father is in his early 70s, Gleason 8, PSMA and MRI last year showed no spread, but PSA was rapidly raising. He had an organ transplant years ago, and a small stroke, takes anti seizure medications, and has a walking disability due
