re: Cancer in general. Know your enemy.
reconJJ, The prednisone, zytiga and the once a month belly shot of Firmigon caused me to not eat or sleep. I got a medical cannabis card and bought six vines of Rick Simpson Oil (RSO).

Recurrent DCIS
Hi all I had a lumpectomy and radiotherapy about eight years ago to deal with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) it has now recurred, what an absolute pain. I’ve had a mammogram and ultrasound and the radiologist thinks I will need surgery. I won’t know for sure until next Wednesday. But in my experience

PSA Expectations after SRT with Concurrent ADT
Greetings! I just wrapped up 7 weeks of salvage radiation therapy on 26 August that was done with concurrent androgen deprivation therapy, and I'm about to go for my first post-treatment PSA test. (We agreed the ADT would be a one-time, 6-month dose to assist with the SRT.) I'm just not sure where

I had a radical prostatectomy 8 years ago and I have bad bladder leakage. I have to wear Depends every day because of the amount of leakage. It usually occurs when I am sitting on my sofa or working in my yard. Does anyone have any experience with us? Also, does anyone know of a procedure that would

Have the symptoms, shame the doctor didnt want to know.
So all of my teen life I have suffered with heavy, painful periods. I was always told this was normal and has no reason to think otherwise. As a teen I didn't live with my mum so I would go to the doctors and complain and was fobbed off each time so I just plodded along. I fell pregnant at the age of

CLL & Mastectomy / Implants
I'm wondering if anyone here with CLL/SLL has undergone a breast reduction or mastectomy since diagnosis. If so, were you on treatment or WW at time of surgery? If you were on treatment, did you have to stop for surgery? How was your healing? If you had a mastectomy, did you get implants after

New primary Breast Cancer! Grade three lobular triple negative! Unrelated to my MBC. Time frame for surgery?
I was diagnosed with de novo MBC in November 2018 and no lump was found. So started on Ibrance and Letrozole as my first line of treatment. I recently felt a large lump in my breast appear almost overnight and mentioned it at my oncology appointment a few weeks later. I was then booked in for a biopsy

Third episode of persistent AF in 6 months
I had a successful cardioversion on Christmas eve and then another one just 4 weeks ago. Gutted because I went into persistent AF again yesterday. I take Edoxaban and have tried to take Flecainide but it makes me dizzy and very sick. I tried the "pill in pocket " yesterday but it did not work.
