CHEMO Effects
A friend of mine finished 6 sessions of Taxater Dec 6th. He still has bouts of serious nasuea, which he attributes to the chemo. Anyone have any experience with this?

Finishing Olaparib PARP after 2 years
Hi All I've been on Olaparib for the past 2 years following frontline chemo (NED) for ovarian cancer (stage 3) and I'm due to finish in May. In one way I'm pleased as I've been very worried about developing MDS/AML following a few scares with my white blood cells dropping. On the other hand, I'm

unfortunately the liver mets have returned to Martins liver. It is 6 months since chemo finished. There are multiple small mets. Martin is still feeling well. No fatigue, loss of appetite or pain. His MO said that this is very bad and gave a prognosis of 12 months. He is starting Martin on carboplatin

Skull met has spread
My appointment with my oncologist yesterday made me aware after reviewing the MRI from last week, that the met that was on my skull is now spread into soft matter in my head. I was set to start a double Chemo treatment yesterday , but it was decided the treatment would do no good, and that quality

Chronic Discomfort
Hello, please see my profile for background info on my dad. I was just curious if it is expected with my dad's condition for him to be in what seems like chronic discomfort in his prostate region. It does "come and go" as he says but seems like lately more often than not he is "uncomfortable" as he

BRCA2- is it the devil or not??
I have been researching about BRCA2 as my husband has this . The more I study about this the scarier it seems, is this wrong. It says that men with BRCA2 are more resistant to treatments and earlier than men that are not. Does this mean my husband most likely will become castrate resistant sooner because

Third line chemotherapy, Caelyx
so, have started Caelyx every 4 weeks as carboplatin and paclitaxel and Niraparib have stopped working. Surgery to remove peritoneum and resection liver not an option. Does anyone have experience of just Caelyx? Is it effective on its own? Thankyou

Reaction to docetaxel twice now.
second cycle of docetaxel and the same reaction. Pelvic pain, flushing, muzzy head and head ache. Great response from the team again and feeling better pretty quickly. Last time they tried again and it went through okay. Had meds to mitigate but not prevented a reaction. They aren’t go to try the infusion

Starting clinical trial of AVR-766
Today I start a clinical trial for ARV-766, an AR degrader. I'm coming in at phase 2, and they are only accepting men who have one of 4 point mutations in the AR - I have two. I've been randomized to 300 mg pill, once a day. The other dose is 100mg. I've failed ADT, chemo. Keytruda & Pluvicto. Hoping

After Zytiga-Xtandi Fail!
Following up on a post by "Chris52981", after Zytiga and Xtandi fail, if chemo is the next treatment, how much time do we really buy? Is it Month's? Weeks? or Years?

Recent HF diagnosis
Hi, I was diagnosed with heart failure a couple of months ago when I woke up one morning struggling for breath with fluid in my lungs, having had virtually no previous symptoms. Looking back, maybe I was a bit short of breath over the last few months but did a sprint-distance triathlon 6 months ago so
