Radiation and CA125 increase
I had surgery last November to remove a large tumor along with my ovaries (already had a hysterectomy). In June, a CT scan showed the lymph nodes in my pelvis were growing and a biopsy confirmed that the cancer had spread (or was there all along). I started radiation therapy and had bloodwork done

PROTON THERAPY
Who is eligible to use proton therapy as a treatment for prostate cancer. In a recent meeting with my oncologist and specialists I was told ONLY prostate cancer patients can do it and not those who have metastasize of the bone or other areas.

What treatment for brain Mets?
Well, now I know why my markers were going up but scans looked stable; MRI showed Mets in my brain while PETScan didn’t pick up the brain lesions. I will be seeing a radiation oncologist to cyberknife some of the Mets. Not sure if he can treat all of the lesions, so wondering what other therapies (

not PCa yet but very important new technique
enhancing cart-t cells memory makes immune therapy way more effective against relapsing cancer…still not tested on prostate cancer but they are talking about a platform that will be used for different kinds of cancer! https://www.news-medical.net/news/20240729/Overcoming-cancer-relapse-with-CAR-Enhancer-therapy.aspx

Starting treatments
Had a setback due to being hospitalized in the ICU for a month and a half. Went to the Oncologist last week and about to start some aggressive treatment as I have a very aggressive prostate cancer. The oncologist on duty at the hospital had an MRI done to show where the metastasized bone cancer is located

Started hospice
My dad has had a significant decline over the past three weeks since seeing my dad’s oncologist. We had a petscan that showed an advancement into three new bones and the old cancer that was “sleeping” has woken up. Zytiga never worked. About two weeks ago my dad started sleeping 15-20 hours a day

apixaban and hematuria
Has anyone else had this issue? I have now had second serious episode of hematuria ( gross blood in my urine ) that was initially diagnosed as likely UTI, but later not confirmed by tests, and have been told it’s likely a result of my taking blood thinner. I am curious 🤨. My blood work showed small

HAS ANYONE EVER TRIED ELECTRICAL STIMULATION OF A TUMOR?
I'm experimenting with an EMS (muscle exercise machine that uses electrodes and electrical stimulation for muscle growth and healing) on a collection of swollen lymph glands on my left pelvis (probably cancerous - feels like a mass more than a collection of lymph nodes...waiting for CT results and oncologist

Virtual Reality Therapy Anyone?
I’ve asked my providers (PCP, Neuro, pain) about virtual reality therapy for ms issues. They’ve never heard of it being used or prescribed. I’ve read about it online only. The benefits for cognitive, physical and speech therapy sound solid. There are specific programs to suit your needs. Mental too,

First recurrence, which coctail to choose?
Dear Ladies, My worst nightmare came true. I had some indications on CT scan already in January, that something is cooking. In June CA125 was increased to 100 and another scan was done that confirmed more activity incl some new ascites in abdomen and 1,5 cm hyperdensity in liver. We were then a

5FU/CAL, any experience? (5 fluorouracil/calcipotriene)
Just wondering if anyone has had treatment for actinic keratosis on the nose or face? I just started treatment for multiple AK's on the nose with FU/CAL cream (5FU-Calcipotriene compound) I have read that it activates lymphocytes and wondering if anyone using this compound has experienced any changes

Raised Thyroglobulin ab
Hi. I had a total thyroidectomy and radio iodine treatment in 2016 for Papillary Ca. I've been having annual monitoring since with no concerns. My most recent blood test shows normal thyroglobulin but raised thyroglobulin antibodies at 40. My latest is TSH 0.7 and T4 in normal range. What I want to know
