I need help with my attitude
So I haven’t written in a bit because I have been waiting to find out what my next line of treatment is. ( Thank you to everyone who responded to my last post about med change). Ibrance stopped working after a year and a half and Everolimus didn’t work at all. I am waiting to find out if I qualify

radiation proctitis
I am almost 3 years out from radiation therapy and I’m still suffering from symptoms of radiation proctitis. I did have it confirmed by colonoscopy about a year and a half ago, at that time the gastroenterologist told me he thought it would resolve eventually but it persists. Have any of you had G.I

What's next after Xeloda?
Hi all, just got disappointing CT scan results showing strong progression after only 7 months on Xeloda. I've messaged my oncologist to find out what the next options may be so I can research them before our appointment. Would love to hear from anyone who has gone to the next step after Xeloda - what

Where to go after Lutetium 177?
Spouse has had a wonderful run on Lu177. Is now about to get his final infusion this week. PSA was dropping fast (down to 185) up until the supply issues struck; he missed one complete cycle which was stuck on the end. Since then, PSA has dropped to around 345 at the 5 week mark following the infusion

next treatment Doxil
hello everyone In July 1st 2022 I enrolled in a clinical trial with AZD (Faslodex in pills) and Capivasertib. Unfortunately last PET scan is showing progression on my liver. Options are Everolimus or Abemaciclib and IV chemo: Doxil. My onc strongly recommends Doxil. Obviously I am scared of IV

DOSE-CONVERSION FROM LT4 TO ARMOUR THYROID
It has been said pretty much forever here (since start of this forum) that the "suggested" one grain = 100 micrograms of levothyroxine conversion is most often unacceptable. As a rough estimate, I think many have found it closer to one grain = 75 micrograms. But, as with everything to do with thyroid

Salvage radiation fears
Right before he got wheeled back for surgery, my husband’s dr came in. I assume it was for a pep talk, but it did the opposite. He essentially said “this is a good first step - let’s get this out and then prepare for radiation”. Surgery went fine and physically he’s recovering well (although only 4

Broken shattered femur
My husband's femur broke and shattered on Friday afternoon. Rushed to hospital only to be told no surgeon available. They called 5 other hospitals and all declined his admittance due to lack of rooms or no surgeon available. Finally last evening he was transferred to Markham Stouffville Hospital at

Afinitor/Everolimus and Tamoxifen is next :(
Hi everyone - it's time for me to change treatment again. Well my time on the Hope trial was pretty short-lived (December to June with pretty much progression showing for 1/2 that time) and now officially over. I'm ok with ending the trial because the travel out of State, and insurance issues were becoming

Invasive micropapillary carcinoma
I recently was looking at the lab report about my breast cancer tumor and somehow had not noticed that my tumor was not invasive ductile carcinoma, but invasive micropapillary carcinoma. It apparently is rare. Has anyone here had this diagnosis ? This is a recurrence for me. My first cancer was invasive

anal leakage and constipation
my husband has aggressive metastatic prostate cancer Gleason 8 with mets to lymph nodes, bladder, and pelvic bones and hips. He is scheduled to start triplet therapy in the next 2 weeks. Last week he underwent a TURP procedure in hopes to get rid of the catheter which he had for over 2 months. Unfortunately

No scan offered!
I have a recurring ovarian cancer. I'm treatable but not curable.I had radiotherapy in January to reduce a recurrence and my Ca125 went down to 21. It's now 48 ash's I'm told I can't have a scan until I have symptoms which strikes me as odd. I was having 3 monthly scans and was expecting one next month

Intake question MSKCC
I had a RP/PND 5 years ago at MSKCC (Dr. Touijer). I had called up cold and was given an appointment for an MRI, followed by a TRUS biopsy (Dr. Ehdaie); everything followed from there. Now, my twin brother presents with an elevated PSA, and wants to be evaluated at MSK. He calls and is told they will
