Hi again, re: Cannabis/THC use for PC
The answers I am getting are more for pain relief. Have there been any studies linking cannabis/THC to curative effects for PC or lowering PSA? Or is it just used for pain relief? Any studies on proven benefits beyond pain relief? Thanks so much. Ran across this study: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc

Finishing Olaparib
I'm 2 yrs NED and have been taking Olaparib for that time. Oncologist now finishing me as he says that it will have longer term effects on bone marrow. BRCA negative but tumour positive for mutation. But I read on this feed that some of you have been taking it for longer. I don't want to stay on a drug

THC/ Cannabis having Curative Effects for PC???
Ran across this study: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7503992/ But is there any proof that THC helps to cure PC or lower PSA? I believe it’s used for pain relief, but are its benefits been proven beyond that? Thank you very much.

Non small cell carcinoma in lung.
I have recently been diagnosed with non small cell carcinoma of the lung by the Royal Brompton. They sent a letter to my GP requesting an urgent 2 week referral to local oncology, GP surgery said they hadn't received the part of the letter asking for the referral. I emailed them a copy as they requested

Back Pain after Chemo?
My wife recently started IV Carboplatin and she’s experienced excruciating lower back and hip pain for the first few days after her treatment (AUC6 dosing, once every 3 weeks). She has numerous pelvic metastases as well as chronic stenosis in her lower back. We’re struggling to try to determine whether

Cervix
I had my second pet scan it shows a mass on my cervix. I had a hysterectomy. 20 years ago. So with the MBC and now this I am a little concerned. Going to a OBGYN go a test. Hopefully maybe scar tissue probably not since it was not there in the first pet scan. Praying. Has anyone else had this issue?

Headaches post Gamma knife surgery
6 weeks of headaches on the side of the tumour and they’ve been getting worse. I’m due to see the original ENT consultant on Wednesday next week but and ideas why now? It’s over 12 months since the Gamma knife and possibly due to Eustachian tube disfunction. The pain is sometimes sharp and intense

Night time nausea
I am a little confused what is going on with my husband.He's got ARBD, acute kidney disease and ARLD. He has started being very sick late at night and this morning I noticed traces of blood in his sick bowl. He says he's not in any pain, but I am concerned as this is a new symptom. He refused to contact
