Delayed neuropathy in one hand
Hi everyone, Happy New Year! Wanted to see if anyone has experienced this and what are ways to deal with it. I finished frontline chemo and didn’t have much, if any neuropathy. But 4 months later, I’d wake up at night bc my right hand would really hurt - burning, tingling, like it’s fallen asleep plus

Olaparib hasn’t worked for me . Anyone had this happen and had success with another PARP?
Hi everyone, I’m back of Chemo for 3rd line, this time with Carbo and Caelyx. This is just a year after 1st recurrence, Chemo reduced cancer to nearly NED, 7 months of Olaparib and then CT scan showed new tumour on spleen. CA125 36. Oncologist mentioned later trying another PARP possibly Rucaparib

HELP WITH SIDE EFFECTS FROM ENZALUTAMIDE
In 2019 after a prolonged bout of diarrhea a blood test was ordered, the cause of the diarrhea was not discovered but the test indicated bone cancer. From there tests showed extensive bone mets and grade 9 Gleason APC. Chemotherapy radiation and firmagon followed. My psa went way down for about 18 months

Been on Firmagon with Zytiga and Prednisone PSA rising, what can I do next?

High-Dose Vitamin B1 / Thiamine and Fat Soluble Benfotiamine Form
I am reposting a reply to the Vitamin B1 thread as I noticed a search on HealthUnlocked for Benfotiamine doesn't list the thread for Vitamin B1 and the information I posted doesn't fit in one reply. I'm not giving medical advice but I know a lot of people here are open to trying things and watch if

psoas Muscle Tumors
my OVCA metastasized to my Psoas muscle 6 years after preliminary OVCA diagnosis. Various chemo and immunotherapy are helping keep it contained. Has anyone had surgery for removal of a psoas tumor? I’d love to hear from you. Thank you.

My husband had his first chemo treatment of 275ml Docetaxel (Taxotere) on 1/11/24 at 2 pm. Thankfully he has had no bad side effects to it except for flatulence. He has not had to take any pain medication since mid day on 1/11/24. Before that he was having to take Oxycodone 10mg every 4 hours or

which steroids and what dosage.
Don’t know if the steroid Dexamethosone would be appropriate for brain cancer but your doctor should know. It is given to me every 21 days at Docetaxel chemo infusion for PCa and absolutely eliminates pains. Can last for 12-18 hours. Ask your doc about it. Mike Seattle

Holding very low stable usPSA - 0.03X range for six years; no ADT, no chemo.
Eight years ago this month had RP after considerable investigation - nadir 0.050. Eleven months later had salvage RT; done at 0.10. Then after a year of pondering ADT and chemo, when my usPSA was back up to 0.10, I went to Europe for Ferrotran nano-MRI combined with Ga68 PSMA. The nanoMRI lite up
