Timing of Docetaxel
Hello. Am now in year 10. Details in profile. For 2+ years have been taking Zoladex, Zytiga and Prednisolone. The CT bone scans and Nuclear medicine full body scans every 6 months show no radiographic progression and I feel ok, apart from fatigue when not active. Recently have some discomfort

10-year update still shows no benefit to ART vs early SRT
ART
= adjuvant radiation therapy, within 6 months after radical prostatectomy (RP)
early SRT
= salvage radiation therapy, after PSA ≥ 0.1ng/ml or 3 consecutive rises. Median was 0.2 ng/ml. Median 1 ½ years after RP. Patients risked nothing by waiting, and gained urinary and fecal continence

Docetaxel Failing
Greetings from Inverness in the beautiful Highlands of Scotland! I would like to share my journey with you and hopefully get some advice on future treatments. In December 2022 following diagnoses of advanced prostate cancer with multiple bone metastasis I started zytiga + prednisone and 6 monthly triptorelin

how much to raise by?
I’m taking tamoxifen for breast cancer. It had impacted thyroid levels in the autumn but I only adjusted by a little. Latest test was tsh 5.17 and t4 17 (not taken that day) on 125 for 3 days a week and 100 for 4 days a week. Obviously I’m not very with it now. I think it has been like this for

10th year
Ten years ago I had my Gleason 9 prostate removed. PSA was .1 for a while. It crept up over .2, and I began taking lupron. The drug brought PSA back down to >.01 for a year or so. As the level started going up again, I received whole pelvis bed radiation, moving PSA to undetectable. After a year or so

Good News! Pluvicto Update
Hey Guys, I just had my third round of Pluvicto this last Tuesday. I had bloodwork done last week. The news seems promising: On 28 January (after docetaxel, but before Pluvicto), my PSA was 36.2. After 2 rounds of Pluvicto on 8 April, my PSA had dropped to 14.5! So, I am remaining positive! I have

AI cancer article
Not sure I understand this. It's not a very good article. It discusses two different ways PCa evolves and possible different treatments can be developed. https://www.ox.ac.uk/news/2024-03-05-ai-reveals-prostate-cancer-not-just-one-disease

Recurrence of borderline?

He had a PSMA Pet scan and it

The struggle is over for my husband at 64
My beautiful husband succumbed to complications from prostate cancer this morning at 4:21 AM. If you look at our profile, we tried everything and finally I gave him some testosterone gel during his last week on earth. It’s impossible to tell whether it made a difference, but I do believe that denying

Update to a previous post I had about ultrasound and CT not being able to detect if it's a fibroid or a mass.
So this is what I had wrote a few days ago: [i]
I (post-menopausal 52 y/o) went in to urgent care about a month ago with stomach pains. Doctor thought it was a ruptured appendix, but sent me for a CT scan to verify. Turns out it was diverticulitis, but on the CT scan they noticed a a complex cyst
