I had a
radical
prostatectomy
back in 2014 (Gleason score 8). Everything fine since then and PSA under control (about 0.875). I developed lower back pains in about April and initially sought remedy through various neurosurgeons.

Sexual Activity after Prostatectomy
I've seen a number of questions related to anal intercourse after prostatectomy. Generally I see folks respond that waiting around six months is a good idea, to allow for healing. This got my attention the other day and I thought I'd post for reactions. I had a CT scan done for unrelated issues, but

Positive surgical margin
Trying to gather information on anyone with a positive surgical margin after prostatectomy. My margin was 2 mm with a gleason 6. Should I opt for adjuvant radiation. I’m only 4 weeks out after surgery so I have not had a psa test done. Will get one at six week post op. I’m very concerned about this positive

Can anyone settle this for me?
I'm a member of a nothing-to-do-with-lupus forum and the question of medical marijuana came up. Most the the members live in states in the US where marijuana is legal. I said that, if it were legal here, I'd like to see what prescribed CBD oil would do for pain. I was told that something along those

Marijuana for spasticity, muscle spasms, pain.
I used to love smoking dope, once was a time when I couldn't imagine life without it. I was unaware of my AMN, And though I was all for legalisation, I honestly believed all of the medical Marijuana angles were nonsense. Time moves on, and here I am, older, and AMN continuing it's slow burn through

Help.
My Husband had an Axium pet scan that showed 2 lymph nodes in the pelvis. He already had prostatectomy in 2011 and Radiation in 2014. He begun taking zytga 1000mg a day plus the firmagon shot every 28 days. Has anybody been on this treatment and for how long? Do you stop soon after psa drops? We visited

Going through treatment for recurrence and eviction threats
I am currently going through recurrence for metastatic endometrial cancer. I got chest/abdomen/pelvis MRI scans on Friday and will see my oncologist this coming Thursday. At the same time, my mother is currently evicting me from one of the many properties she owns and one that she specifically bought
