update on changed cancer
Lots of water under the bridge since I last posted. Had left breast removed because of wound that would not heal. Tissue sent for testing and came back Progesterone positive changed from estrogen positive. My young oncologist did not know how to treat this. Decided to wait until new scans. No meds

Extracellular vesicle tetraspanin-8 level predicts distant metastasis in non–small cell lung cancer after concurrent chemo-radiation.
Researchers identify marker that may predict whether lung cancer likely to spread.
Lung cancer is the most common cancer and cause of cancer-related death in men and women worldwide. More than 50% of patients diagnosed with lung cancer die within 1 year of diagnosis, and the 5-year survival rate

COVID-19 & Abnormal Coagulation.
I believe that control of microclots may prevent
metastasis
(& further mets in those who have some.) Clot control can also prevent DVTs & fatal pulmonary embolisms. The D-dimer test is very useful when a clot is suspected. Zero (or as close to zero as the test can measure) means no clot.

STOMP - Oligometastatic PCa.
Collectively, the studies showed a 2-year rate of freedom from systemic therapy of about 50%, accompanied by "promising gains in progression-free survival and distant
metastasis
-free survival."

Update on Immunotherapy - Keytruda
The report says no SUV readings or no significant SUV in the 4 sites of
metastasis
. However my doctor said that since there is still soft tissue thickening at 2 places we can only call it NEAR complete remission.

Metastatic Prostate Cancer has now spread to multiple sites in my liver. What are my treatment options?
Findings are suspicious for sclerotic
metastasis
. Asymmetric enlargement and irregularity involving the left posterior aspect of the prostate gland. Given the schleroic bony lesions nd heptatic
metastasis
cannot exclude a primary prostate lesion. 5 months ago my liver was fine.

Pleura and Lung Mets. I’m currently on Ibrance and fulvestrant. Over all it’s not that bad. I’m about to start my 4th cycle. During the 3rd cycle I started having headaches, blurred vision and numbness. (I had some numbness from chemo 10 years ago) It’s freaked me out. I soon found that all this is

Bone Strengthening
What does everybody take/use for a bone strengthened? Do all of you take calcium? I was given one IV of Zometa but I didn’t receive anymore as it cause my blood calcium levels to drop extremely low. When I asked my oncologist what I should be taking to increase my bone strength he said he wasn’t up

Hi all, I am so lucky to have found this site. You have helped me a great deal since my MBC diagnosis in October. I was first diagnosed with breast cancer in June of 2009. I had a mastectomy on my right breast with clear margins and no lymph node invasion. I had 6 rounds of chemo but no radiation.
