Travel insurance
I am finally in a position to go abroad after 18 since my diagnosis. I’m halfway through my chemo after a reoccurrence. Can anyone recommend a good insurance company?

PSA Rising and Falling during Chemo
I have been receiving chemotherapy since November 2023. Started with Docetaxel until it failed after 7 cycles. Switched to Cabazitaxel and currently on the 5th cycle. Since starting the Cabazitaxil my PSA has been raising and lowering. I am currently having some scans done to confirm if there is progression

Advice on cough
Hey everyone, hope we are all keeping safe and doing good. I have posted before about my mum who is fighting lung cancer. In short, she has only had three chemo 's and now being referred for radiotherapy, as tumour has significantly shrunk. Good news. The chemo has knocked her for six. Her immune system

Cancer Cell Blood Test
My oncologist has suggested I get the cancer cell blood test done. Has anyone had this test? What were the results? I have had severe side effects on all chemo and cancer drugs and my Oncologist has recommended it.

Low Red Cell Count
Morning folks, I wanted to provide an update on my journey. Dropped from clinical trial at Sarah Cannon Research in early May due to disease progression after three treatments of Phase 1 trial drug and one dose of Keytruda. Started dual chemo cabazitaxel and carboplatin in mid May. Went for third

Ascites issues
I have recently been diagnosed with stage 4b womb cancer spread to ovaries and abdomen. My worst symptoms have come from ascites. I have had 2 chemo cycles and was really hoping that it would dry up by now. I have had 2 drains and although it is in no way accumulatiling like it was, my concern is that

To Believe it I have been told once the chemo stops working the next step is the T Cell Therapy have you done any research on this talk to your doc and see if it is an option for you.

Just a quick question.
Hi everyone and thanks for all your help so far. As the chemo has now stopped working for Martin we are looking for any other options that might be available to give him more time. His MO has organised a liquid biopsy to see if there are any mutations that could be treated, which might help. We

Update and question about Olaparib

To Bone marrow biopsy or not to bone marrow biopsy that is the question.
Hi everyone, I’m not sure if this is the right forum. Previously it was thought I had pernicious anaemia (I’m in that forum too) but then they weren’t sure. I am on B12 injections (3 monthly but my levels of that are good at moment). I was referred to Haematologist last year due to low white blood cells

Dad's PSA now 1800..nothing works..Is this the end??
Hey all, It pains me to write this as I'm probably scared to hear the truth. I've posted a few times, but this time, it's different. Dad was in hospital for a spinal cord compression - new activity on c3, new mets to spine and PSA soaring to 1800. Those dreaded words, "all options have been exhausted

Sclerosis due to cancer or treatment?
I recently developed sclerosis in my left hip area...painful to sit on a hard surface. PSMA tech wrote 'sclerosis developed consistent with treatment'. Oncologist seems unconcerned. I've read that sclerosis can sometime happen when ADT reduces tumor size, which means the bone has to adjust. The recent

Next step options after lupron/zytiga failed
I have been on monthly Lupron for 7 years (starting in 2014) after the spread of prostate cancer to my bones following a prostatectomy in 2014. Lupron alone was very effective until December 2021. I then added Zytiga/Prednisone which had worked well. But current (June 2024) scans show substantial disease

Phase 3 trial enrolling: MK-5684 Versus Alternative Abiraterone Acetate or Enzalutamide in participants with mCRPC
Previously Treated With Next-generation Hormonal Agent (NHA) and Taxane-based Chemotherapy...which would be the case for people that did the triplet.

I’m 36, so lucky to have two beautiful, healthy children (both ICSI babies), but I had always dreamed of three. I don’t want this to come across as insensitive in anyway (the reason for our infertility is as a result of years of chemotherapy my husband endured, after being diagnosed with an aggressive

Chronic cough and Enhertu
Have had mets to my lungs for eight years now and progression has been relatively slow with periods of stability. Interestingly, though my mets in my lungs haven’t materially changed since last year (though too many to count most nodules are less than 1cm with a few in the 2cm range), I now have a chronic
