Any problems with unsupportive friends post-cancer?
At 61 now, I've been through the menopause twice now -
radiotherapy
caused the second menopause, which was horrible. But, as a 'friend' I've recently lost says, "no-one has to understand". This hurt a lot, but I suppose it's true. Why should they?

CA125 increasing, no symptoms, 7 years remission
She underwent TAHBSO, had 6 cycles of chemo and 25 sessions of
radiotherapy
. Then we had monitoring. Everything is well until 2years ago, her CA125 started to increase. It will increase by 6, then decreas by 2 on the next check. I was worried. A year ago, it started to steadily increase.

Decreasing testosterone level
After chemo and radiation treatment for Gleason score of 9, 7 years ago for PC, my testosterone has since always been around 90-100, but recently it has dropped to 53. Any thoughts on how I can safely raise my testosterone level, or why it has dropped. Thanks for your help. Chuck

Stage Iv esophogeal cancer / terminal
The oncologist has told him they will do 3 cycles of chemo then CT scan to see if tumour has shrunk, they have not offered any form of
radiotherapy
and have said surgery isn’t a option, would this still be the case if the palliative chemo does shrink the tumour, the prognosis they’ve given him is either

Can lung cancer treatment lead to heart problems?
I had two adana carcinoma lessions removed from my right lung and had
radiotherapy
on my left one, last September and November respectively. I have recently been told I now have heart failure due to these procedures which has caused the enormous amount of water retention I have experienced.
