Is a false-positive biopsy possible?
I have a history of prostate cancer in my family. My father had it, and my brother had it and he had his prostate removed. As a result, for the last 13 years, I've had my PSA checked every six months. I typically run a very low PSA, historically .5 or .6. About 18 months ago I noticed that my PSA was

Should I sell and retire with PSA at 0.1 following 9 months undetectable?
Diagnosed early 2022, Gleason 4+4. Metastasis to multiple sites on the pelvis, no other detectable spread. Triplet therapy with ongoing goserelin and abiraterone with prednisone. Abiraterone is once per day with a low fat meal. Following nine months of undetectable PSA results, I recently received

Autovaccination seems a hot topic lately: Mt. Sinai autovaccination technique to turn cold prostate cancer hot (Phase 1)
ok, I am exposing myself to j-o-h-n in more than one way with that title... This is for regional leagues (locally advanced PCa), while we are the NFL of prostate cancer here, but the fact that a cold cancer was turned hot is very promising as it has always been the main limit of immuno therapies applied

PSA rising, rapidly
Well, it looks like my honeymoons of ADT are over. I was (and still am) on a tripple therapy along the lines of the ARASENS trial (Docetaxel, Lupron and NUBEQA) for about 2 years.

Macrogol (Dulcoease)
Hi, has anyone else found that laxative treatments containing Macrogol increases their pain and bloating considerably? I have just been put on this and Mebeverine, but am still in a lot of pain, which seems worse when I take Macrogol. Thanks

Possible NHS misdiagnosis saying clear for HPV when private home test says positive with variant 16 (the test and smear were 14 days apart)
I have tested HPV positive for 2 smears a year apart, the last one was Oct 2023. So I went for my third on 18 Jan this year and have just been given the all clear and told it will repeated in 5 years (which I doubt as I will be 71 then). HOWEVER, I had already done a home test with Medicines Online
