Living with cancer
My latest CT scan shows stability but
peritoneal
cancer
in the pelvis and cancer under my chest still remains and I am only on Avastin now which is keeping it stable but not killing the cancer.

First time on dialysis
I should have posted this here. I did originally posted it in the site for dialysis. But if you are looking toward dialysis, you would be on this site first. So, this is my journal though my first time on dialysis. You can see the replies if you can get on the HealthUnlocked for Kidney Dialysis. I know

Questions
The time has come when I need to make a decision about whether to go with hemo or peritoneal dialysis. That brings up many questions. If on peritoneal dialysis do you ever get a decent nights sleep or are you constantly awakened with alarms pain etc. Is the machine very loud - I have a hard time

Feeling isolated & depressed
My 60-year-old husband is in renal failure, on nightly peritoneal dialysis, and on the transplant list. I've been feeling frustrated, anxious and isolated, and that often comes out in anger. Every day is the same: I work from home, take care of the dog, pay bills, do housework, and have dinner ready

mesenteric tumour?
I have been diagnosed with stage 4 HG ovarian/
peritoneal
cancer
(they aren’t able to say which). Original scan revealed cysts on one ovary and the other ovary couldn’t be visualised. I had abdominal fluid , omental caking ,enlarged lymph nodes and pleural effusion. They couldn’t find a mass.

Now been advised cancer has spread to both lungs 😔
Cancer
signs are now on both lungs, in my
peritoneal
area, and under my spleen (not the spleen itself). I am getting some pain in my lung area and it's really worrying me 😔 Surgery is still going ahead although my tumour has only shrunk slightly. 3 more chemos will follow.

Fibrin in peritoneal dialysis drain fluid
Hi all! I’m back again with a concern regarding my dad who started PD in July. Recently he is having some fibrin (white chunky strands) in his drain fluid. I did some research on it and it’s associated with elevated fibrinogen in the plasma which is furthermore associated with bad outcomes in all of

Dialysis / RLS
Wow, this sub is a lot more active than the Kidney Disease sub, one would think it would be the other way around. I guess RLS is a lot more prevalent than people think? I never experienced or even heard of RLS before starting dialysis but boy did it hit me hard. It's already hard to sleep while doing

Peritoneal Dialysis
Do we have to bandage out sites for the duration of having it? I did not like the belt so I use the lanyards for my catheter; they are more comfortable.

Peritoneal dialysis and high blood pressure
I would really appreciate any feedback from those who are on or have been on PD. My 76 year old dad just started PD this past week. The nephro ordered 1 manual exchange nightly with purple bag (extraneal) but after starting this my dad’s BP has skyrocketed to over 190-210 systolic. His baseline BP before

Peritoneal cancer with no visible disease
Has anyone been in this situation with
peritoneal
cancer
? Apparently it’s quite rare so we’re trying to get a second opinion.

Recurrent prostate cancer at 5 months after radical prostatectomy, with psa up to 0.2. PSMA and MRI negative. Now on Leuprolide and Nubeqa.
My Gleason was 9. Incontinence has been an issue since the RP and even though it has improved still leaked around 30 ml a day. Delaying radiation that I was recommended by one institution but some Oncologists say to delay radiation for more recovery. Even though my PSA is 0.01 on the meds, i worry

bone Mets!
it’s here. After 11 1/2 years on zoladex injections and Xtandi followed by Nubeqa, husband had a PET scan that shows numerous spots on spine, breastbone and one lymph node in groin. PSA was undetectable for years, then .1 and .2, which triggered the order for the scan. The PA told him he has 1-2years

First PSMA PET scan and aftermath
My oncologists (medical and radiation) had been pushing me to have a PSMA scan for two years. Even though in 2023 my PSA rose from .67 to 1.37, I pointed out that a PSMA scan would not change my treatment. We ran another Axumin PET in January, which was stable, if not better, than the one in September

Will crabs save us? Crab-shaped DNA tetrahedral nanomachine for silencing undruggable mRNA targets in prostate cancer in vivo and in vitro
well…what is there to say?? Nano bots that seem to be able to silence some important proteins! Important for prostate cancer of course! https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1748013224000422

Levo dose advice during IVF cycle - impact of HRT
Hello again 🙂 I’m wondering if anyone has any insight on the impact of HRT on Levo - Estrogen & Progesterone specifically which are the medications given during a Frozen Embryo Transfer cycle. NICE says there is anecdotal evidence of a moderate interaction between the medications. The progesterone
