Pain flare prophylaxis--Dr. Sartor high testosterone therapy--
I am aware that men with bone mets often get Dexamethasone to possibly avoid having pain flare after
radiotherapy
to treat bone mets pain. So, is it possible that Dexamethasone can be used briefly right before getting the high testosterone injections?

Thyroxine and blood test query
Good morning hope all is well with you guys.... So basically these are all of my results over the past few years - I finished treatment for right tonsil cancer September 2018. I’ve always thought that my thyroid was sluggish due to having a nodule but this was tested by FNB in 2014 and came back as

Stage 1a triple negative breast cancer
I was diagnosed 1 1/2 years ago with stage 0 triple negative DCIS. I had a lumpectomy with sentinel lymph node removal. It turned out to be stage 1a triple negative breast cancer. The tumor was very tiny and my lymph nodes were clear. I also had 20 rounds of radiation treatment. My oncologist told me

Radiation Therapy to the Sinus Area
So I am in a new world. Just after I stopped taxotere treatments, I went into the hospital with headaches and double vision. It turned out that my PC had spread to to the bone structure in my sinus cavity. I have started cabazitaxel and the initial results as reported are excellent. My MO (Mark

How can we decrease pain on bones?
After 23 of 35 days of
radiotherapy
I have met many people and have even made good friends. A friend of this new group has bone metastases and great pain, he is currently on opioids but his pain is not diminished. Does anyone have an idea how he could decrease this pain? Many thanks!

new diagnosis
She said they are suggesting I go for 5 sessions of
Radiotherapy
. I have an appointment to go see consultant on 11th August. I was just wondering if anyone else has been given results like this before as I thought it would have been a clear you have it or you are clear.

A positive test.
After all, with my first cancer diagnosis there were delays to treatment with fitness for surgery tests, then waiting for those results and an appointment to see the surgeon and ultimately an appointment to see the Oncologist for
radiotherapy
, all that took 3 months.

Post-radiotherapy (breast cancer) lymphedema
I'm caring for my mother, just out of hospital with stage 4 breast (and bone and liver) cancer. MASSIVE problem is lymphedema. I'm doing daily massages etc on her. Has anyone tried the compression/massage/inflatable boot things? I'm reading so much on them, but don't know where to go to/what is best.

Lung biopsy results
Owing to the fact that the lung tumour is next to my spine
Radiotherapy
is not really an option. First we need to find all the other 'possible' tumours in my body, after the scan we shall know more.

Further testing
Hi Crew. I went through breast cancer over Christmas/new years this year. Found early, Grade 1. Lumpectomy and radiation therapy. Nothing in the lymph. We have now found a 4.3cm cyst/lump thing in one of my adrenal glands. It's not presenting like anything they recognise so I'm now off to a specialist

Survival stats and how to take them.
The Doctor said they have found microscopic cancer cells (R1) in the site where the tumour was, so I'll be doing the Chemo,
Radiotherapy
and possible Immunotherapy.
