Large right lobe upper lobe mass
Hello, I was wondering if anyone had as the post says, a large right lobe upper lobe mass? This is what they have just found with my mum. She’s had quite a bit of weight loss and has a scan tomorrow and possible report from this Friday to see exactly what it is but they are assuming lung cancer. I just

Switching Drs
In July, I was notified by my oncology clinic that my oncologist was on an emergency leave of absence with his return undetermined. 😢 I was absolutely devastated, not only because there was no information that could be given on his status, but also for the void it left not knowing where to proceed

Prostate Cancer (stage IV) identified in January and Small Cell Carcinoma (Neuro endocrine) in liver in August. Any suggestions?
In January, my dad was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer (Acinar Adenocarcinoma Prostate) stage 4, with PSA of 687. PCa had reached bones but not other major organs. He was put on Abiraterone and Degarelix. In August, PSA test showed that PSA had dropped to 2.7 and there was decrease in size and PSMA avidity

Sunbeds are a group 1 carcinogen!
If you’re considering using a sunbed to get a tan, think twice! Sunbeds are a group 1 carcinogen and are known to cause all types of skin cancer, including the most deadly form - melanoma. Damage is cumulative, irreparable and bad news at any age, but when used, even once at a younger age (under

Advice please
Hi there, my mum was diagnosed with HGSOC stage 4 in October 21. She had debulking surgery followed by 6 rounds of carbo/taxol. She recovered well and continued with Avastin infusions every 3 weeks until May this year when her CA125 started to gradually rise. Her CT scan at this time showed NED and they

Hey guys. Glad to find this group. 81 years old- Diagnosed 7 years ago with a Gleason 9 The Onc's finally scared me into having a radical but I refused to let them take my nerves. They told me I would be gone in 5 yrs. In retrospect wish I hadn't had the radical. Info and options were very hard to come

Tooth extraction after receiving Zometa?
Has anyone had a tooth extraction after receiving a Zometa infusion? My tooth extraction is scheduled for 9/18 but it’s not related to my metastatic breast cancer or any drugs I have received. It’s due to internal resorption and is being removed 8 weeks after my first Zometa infusion. My oncologist thinks

I had the standard IMRT for my pca back in 2013. I was told it was a lifetime dose. Is that true with the newer forms of radiation treatment?

hi there Very low. My midway scans are showing my lymph nodes that grew after my huge debulking surgery in March have not shrunk with the chemotherapy and I have some nodules on peritoneum ( nothing in any organs) So he can’t say that the chemo hasn’t worked in other type cancer but it’s not doing

Thyroid cancer
I have a close friend who’s just been diagnosed with thyroid cancer so is waiting for surgery. She has been told this is not the worst cancer to get and it will not kill her. So she is trying to be upbeat about it. Can you live normally without a thyroid please? I’d really like to give her some optimistic

ctDNA - signatera
has anyone had the signatera bloodwork test? It is somewhat new science and compares a current blood draw to original tumor biopsy tissue. It then look for a match and works to to detect circulating tumor dna (ctDNA) in blood. It assigns a numbers as to how much ctDNA is found. My Mets are bone only

Going in for a radical Cystectomy, stopping Biologic.
Hello lovely people. My first six monthly Cystoscopy after getting the all clear from bladder cancer in January showed that the cancer was back with a vengeance. So on Monday I'll be undergoing a Radical Cystectomy. I'm OK and positive with the outlook of living without a bladder and lots of other bits
