Pancreas problems after RT for prostate
Received
radiotherapy
and hormone therapy. My PSA levels have dropped and progress seems OK. I have also had M.E. and fibromyalgia for over 25 years and, as part of that, IBS.

Evening Primrose update
I had surgery and
radiotherapy
and was put on Letrozole. I have had a few problems with the Letrozole, which saw me come off it for a while. I was put back on it and the Oncology Nurse told me to take Evening Primrose oil. it’s been 3 months now. I do feel a bit better.

Low Fibre Diet
I am undergoing
radiotherapy
and low dose of chemo. I have been asked to reduce my fibre intake as much as I can. This goes well against the grain but naturally I want to do what ever helps.

Rash on leg
Hey everyone, As mentioned previously, my mum is awaiting
radiotherapy
and has decided to go ahead. She has had a horrendous cough now for nine weeks and had numerous courses of anti biotics, which cannot be great. She is currently taken her third course of cotrimoxazole, which have not done much.

Gemzar and Carboplatim
She is being treat with Gemzar and Carboplatin, there's been no suggestion of
radiotherapy
. I'm asking if anyone could advise on side effects she seems very tired , which I understand is not uncommon and she is managing by listening to her body, resting when needed and eating well.

Update recent PSMA
Uptake in new lymph node locations in pelvis. the
radiotherapy
failed, and preclude more treatment on new nodal areas. (according to Docs.) So expect to add to ADT, abi or enza or darolutamide in a short while, with PSA going up on a fast double.

Flummoxed and in a Pickle 🙃🙂
Protocols indicate that I should have
radiotherapy
very soon but I also suffer from Systemic Lupus Erythematosus which in the past has been seen as massive contraindication as it might trigger a nasty re - activation of the lupus which for me tends to damage vital internal organs.

Update as the weeks are moving on
I have finished my first
radiotherapy
so its now on to the next step. But I don't feel much like the next step right now due to side effects , which they say should wear off in a few weeks . Its an exhausting path so I hope it has reduced the tumour as it was quite large compared to the rest.

felt a bit bruised
I found finding a comfortable bra was more of a problem because of swelling from the op and also
radiotherapy
. Hope all goes well for you.

Update excruciating pain
He is going to have as much of it removed as they can and will have a treatment plan for chemo and
radiotherapy
. Although they cannot remove it all it is slow growing so this treatment regime should extend his life.

COPD issues
My mum has previously had chemo and now started
radiotherapy
for lung cancer. She also has severe COPD. She coughs like every 5 mins which makes her cough up thick green sputum each time. I appreciate there is a cough with COPD but should it be like this?
