Reviewing my final Path report, post RP
A friend tipped me to this site AFTER my RP. (I'd read everything my surgeon gave me, plus googled a ton of stuff, none of which made any sense to me. My MD GF, GP, and surgeon all strongly pushed RP, so I did it.) I've learned more on this site in 9 mos than I did with all the above in a year. Thank

Well, it's been a while. A very very long while. So for a little update within the last 4 years that I think I last posted I have had a baby 🫣😨. About 19 months old now. A welcomed surprise shall we say. Didn't even think it was possible, but hey, our bodies always do their own thing. I had a (symptoms

My results and treatment plan after my Cystoscopy OP.
I got a telephone call early morning last week after my Cystoscopy and biopsies. Although earlier this year they said I could not have BCG again - Oncology nurse told me I was having a shorter course of BCG ever week for three weeks, Should really have been spaced, but mo matter. After a month or

IBS symptoms?
Hi, I’m hoping someone can give me some advice on my symptoms. I have had bowel issues for a long time (around 20 years) mainly in the form of gas and bloating and cycles of diarrhoea and constipation. The bloating part was the only bit that really got me down, the rest was manageable, so I decided

Bleeding after salvage radiation
Had radical prostatectomy 12/21. Salvage radiation about 11 mos ago. Currently about one year into Lupron + Abiraterone + prednisone. Recently experienced very mild rectal and/or blood in stool. Is this likely due to the radiation, or something else?

Shingles vaccination and PCa progression?
Hi everyone, I am planning to get Shingles vaccine, but afraid from the consequences. Gleason score 9 (4+5) Radical Prostatectomy 2017 > BCR 2019 SRT 8 weeks + Firmagon 6 injections (over 6 months). G 9 recurrence is inevitable (as we all know) so I am scared to take the Shingles vaccine. Any one

never adjusted
I had a mastectomy three years ago and I've never gotten over this deep seated shock as to how it looks. Don't bother writing if all you can think to say is I'm lucky the cancer is gone.

Laparoscopy oophorectomy
So I had surgery on Tuesday, was supposed to be a full open hysterectomy but I opted for laparoscopy removal of large endometrioma which may have been cancerous and removal of ovary and fallopian tube. I now have a 2 week wait for results of endometrioma and omental biopsy, if positive then I will have

Low psa, but have pca
Is there anyone else out there who had a normal PSA,but has prostate cancer. After MRI showing a lesion and in biopsy they see two spots of Gleason 6 cancer, one in each side of prostate. Even though it's a Gleason 6, urologist at top teaching hospital in Philadelphia says I need a radical prostatectomy

Adcal-D3
Just a quick query. Has anyone else suffered from nausea when taking Adcal-D3 chewable? I was wondering if the tablets contain lactose, as I'm allergic to it. Since having been diagnosed with a fractured L2 and osteoporosis, the RA team and my GP both recommend them. I was taking Solgar Calcium Citrate

mastectomy
Well my surgery went well,Only problem was as I expected low oxygen levels after the anesthetic. so glad I opted for Mastectomy-would never have coped with further operations and up to 18 months of treatment if I had opted for reconstruction..Only appts now are with a district nurse to check dressings

Suggested Food Ideas for After a Gall Bladder Removal

low grade serous ovarian cancer
hello I’m new to the group but I was diagnosed with low grade ovarian cancer in October 2020 and have since had a radical hysterectomy in December 2020 followed by 6 rounds of chemo starting in June 2021 which didn’t remove all the cancer I was given a course of letrozole but this didn’t work for me.

The Stoma Begining

Breast cancer - mastectomy or not
Hi allI was diagnosed with Stage 4a high grade serous OC in September 2022 and I've just had my last post-surgery chemo (for the time being at least)😊.
