Rant! Rant! Rant!
It’s hard to talk about cancer because there are so many things people do differently in treatment, so many choices we make. I don’t get offended much but someone said something today that kind of hit me the wrong way. I never understood why stage iv cancer patients were offended by those who didn’t

Intro
Good day! I’m 62, male living in South Carolina. Was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer (PC) last year. Had a Radical Prostatectomy with clear margins, and for a year have had PSA tests less than the 0.1 level. Most recent test jumped from 0.047 to 0.075 concerning me that the surgery was not fully successful

Peaceful nights at last!
I started posting on this forum 2 years ago but it is many months since I last posted so I wanted to tell you what is proving to be a happy ending to my long RLS tale of woe. I've had RLS all my life (inherited from my father) and for many years it was just an occasional thing but when I got old it

Had my lap today.
Thought I'd update on my surgery today for anyone that hasn't had theirs yet. My bilateral cystectomy went really well. I had three rods put in and my ovarian cysts were pulled out through my belly button (lol ewww). Had endometrial ablation and mirena. Turns out I was absolutely riddled with endo but

raised platelets post op
Hi, On 16/3 I had a radical hysterectomy, bilateral oophrectomy, appendectomy and omentum for what histology has now confirmed is stage1a adult type granulosa cell ovarian cancer. I was readmitted with a post op infection and treated with IV antibiotics, at the time it was noted I had a high platelet

cannabis!?
Dear everyone, I feel like I'm still developing a relationship with things outside of myself. For example, cannabis! I have definitely overused in my life but then right now I am experimenting with microdosing. Its a start! I'm only on 5 MG of lexapro now and I feel like although I'm still miserable

ART BCR Biochemical Recurrence post Radical Prostatectomy RP, Adjuvent Radiation Treatment, Benign Cells, usPSA Ultra Sensitive PSA
Some excerpts from a podcast covering many aspects of active surveillance, both post radical prostatectomy (RP) and adjuvant/ early salvage radiation (aRT / eSRT). There is an interesting breakdown of usPSA (ultra sensitive PSA) with predictive values for BCR. Last, it appears that the metric of ‘cure

Nighttime incontinence
I had radical prostatectomy about 16 months ago. Radiation followed about 6 months after that. I am on Lupron and abiraterone now for about 9 months. Among other side effects, I have occasional bed wetting. I dont have daytime issues and never experienced any of that even immediately after surgery

Not great odds!!
Well, today we got confirmation that we have been booked in for transfer on Sunday. We are using donor eggs with my DH sperm. Both were frozen as DH has had a failed vasectomy reversal. We had 9 eggs, 5 thawed successfully but only 2 fertilised. When I spoke to the endrometriologist, I got the impression

Read Paper/Study on Radical Prostatectomy w/ Lymph Node Dissection (less as opposed to more /extended ) can’t find this study to read again
Does anyone have this study or paper that I briefly read on this topic and if it matters statistically of the amount of lymph nodes removed from surgery, ie: the amount of nodes removed over all compared to none, a few or extended. And also about the amount of lymph nodes removed, when it comes to

Well, so much for feeling normal....
Some of you may have read my long story on the Enhertu infusion. I have it in my lungs, spine and then it spread to my liver and the next treatment (Xeloda, I think) and after three months still progression. If you have the time, grab a cup of coffee and read. OR, if you are having trouble sleeping

Radical Prostatectomy
on the pathology report it states as follows Excerpt from pathology report: VIII. SEMINAL VESICLE INVASION: Cannot be assessed The seminal vessels were removed but pathologists said cannot be assessed Surgeon, Pathologist and Medical Oncologist we spoke to state because they were shrunk or scarred

D mannose
I think I saw a post which said it was okay to take D mannose with prednisone, adcal and the other things we take for PMR and GCA but I can’t find it. I have taken 5 courses of antibiotics since February for a persistent UTI and I think it might be worth seeing if this will help to get rid of it. Thanks

ART AACR Journal ; Effect of Sulforaphane in Men with BCR after Radical Prostatectomy
I have posted an NIH study with similar findings and have noted that I have taken 20mg of stabilized Sulforaphane for 2 1/2 years now (study was 60mg for M6 or 6 months)...who knows if my dosing is sufficient, but the length of supplementation is far greater. Regardless, I keep taking the supplement

After RP who goes over Pathology?
We messaged Surgeon through portal and asked how many lymph nodes removed. He states that pathology will tell us that…Does the medical oncologist go over the surgery pathology?. My husband has great physicians, but definitely confused by these mixed messages of whom is willing to give my husband answers

Taking collagen
Is collagen worth taking? I have been diagnosed with osteopenia and am taking Risedronate. I am also taking Anastrozole after having a mastectomy . I take vitD and K , my diet is good and I walk every day. Just wondering if there’s anything else I can do to improve my bone health. Thanks.

Side Effects of Lupron plus Abiraterone
I'm 56 and 15 mos post radical prostatectomy. I'm on Lupron and Abiraterone plus prednisone. Aside from the 'normal' side effects of low/no libido, reduced testicle size, etc., I am losing much of my body hair. I'm referring to arm, leg, chest and armpits. Hair elsewhere is hanging in there, including
