A Wish Fulfilled, and a Legacy
This endeavor, called “Project Renewal,” recently updated the dosage label for the
oral
chemotherapy
drug capecitabine (Xeloda) to make it more tolerable, and there will likely be more to come!

I am from the UK, and was crushed when I had to cancel my planned silver wedding anniversary trip to New England twice, the first time because of the pandemic, and in October last year because of progression and switching to
oral
chemotherapy
(Capecitabine/Xeloda).

End of IBrance …
With radiation now on the schedule my ONC has stopped the IBrance and anastrozole for the duration and is offering me a choice of two treatments: Piqray and fulvestrant injections (I do have the mutation for this targeted treatment) or xeloda (which is a broader
chemotherapy
oral
drug).

Prostate Cancer Diet and Re-purposed Meds
I was just reading a post about Jane Mcclelland's protocol regarding her book, "How to starve cancer." She also added a second portion on a book re-released, with a Ferroptosis (death by iron) protocol. I thought the criticism to be amazing. Cancer is a baffling mystery, top scientist and great minds

GemCarbo and picc line advice please!
Hi ladies, I've seen my oncologist today (well, one of his minions anyway) to find out about my treatment plan for my first recurrence. They've told me that I'll have gemcitabine with carboplatin this time round, so I was just wondering if anyone had any advice about this regime please?Even though carbotaxol

Better chemo administration technique, takes into account each individual patient
“People with the same body surface area could have very different heights and weights, could have very different muscle masses or genetics, but as long as the height and the weight plugged into this equation give the same body surface area, their dose is identical,” https://news.mit.edu/2024/closed-loop-drug-delivery-system-could-improve-chemotherapy

Are bone and CT scans required quarterly if PSA and testosterone are basically zero and no symptoms?
I have stage IV prostate cancer with a spot on my lung being the only known spread of my cancer. After my chemo regimen, my CT and bone scans have been clean for a year now. And my blood work is perfect at the moment. I am on Zytiga and getting a Lupron shot quarterly. My doc still wants

severe covid vaccine reaction, & ibuprofen
After 4 or 5 covid vaccines with very minimal side effects , the most recent vaccine left me sick with fever and several lymph nodes swelling up within a few days. 2 nodes in armpit under the vaccine were extremely swollen and very painful. so much so, that I could not sleep on that side for weeks

Recurrence
I know with over OVCA (or any cancer), everyone hopes for “one and done”, but life sometimes doesn’t work out that way. I have had a number of reoccurrences but want to share that so far I’ve been knocking them back with various treatments, whether it be chemo, radiation, targeted therapy, immunotherapy
