New cancer vaccine trial helped kill breast cancer cells in Mayo patient (October 10, 2019 news item)
[Fellow travelers, this sounds a lot like Provenge. But instead of waiting over a weekend for the white blood cells to be returned from a lab in Atlanta or Seal Beach, CA, this article says the "shot is made right there, on the spot." Indeed, our adv. PCa future is likely tied up in the development

Implant and reduction/lift surgery while on Ibrance
I have Mets to bones’ ER PR positive HER negative. My oncologist wants to keep me on Ibrance even though I’m having my implant exchange on the mastectomy side and a lift/ reduction on healthy breast to match. Has anyone stayed on Ibrance before, during and after surgery? I’m concerned with healing.

Hello everyone, I have a question. Is anyone taking the medicine Ampyra to help with walking?
My doctor wants me to start taking Ampyra to help me walk better. This medicine cost around $2,000. My local pharmacy can not fill my prescription because my insurance wants to use their own pharmacy. So my local pharmacy has to check and see if the insurance pharmacy has the medicine in stock first

Vit D
I take Promacta 15 mg and it is holding me somewhere between 50 and 80. Everyone seems O.K. with that. A couple of months ago, a few posted that vitD helped their numbers, so I tried that on top of my promacta. I don't know if it was wishful thinking, coincidence, or what, but after 6 weeks my platelets

Am I Petty?
Am I petty? Seriously, if I am, I apologize, but here’s the thing: Last year my husband and I were visiting my father-in-law in another state, after he had a heart attack. My mother-in-law died shortly after Scott and I were married. She had breast cancer and this was decades ago when more died then

Mastectomy distress
Had my mastectomy last week and I’m having the dressing and last drain out tomorrow. When I went for the first check up Monday, I got very upset and couldn’t look at the scar and asked for it to be recovered until tomorrow, I thought it would be fine and I’d not care about losing the breast if the cancer

Total Gastrectomy check up.
Yesterday I attended an appointment at the hospital some four hours journey from home with the surgeon that performed a Total Gastrectomy on me a little over nine years ago. The appointment was at his request and I had not seen him over the pat fours years. Now he wishes to see me on a yearly basis.

Anyone out there with recurrent non-metastatic breast cancer?
Hi everyone, I'm new here and I hope you can help me. I was first diagnosed in 2009 with stage 2 IDC(invasive ductal carcinoma) in my right breast. Had a lumpectomy, chemo (ACT) and 6 weeks of radiation. In March 2013, I found another lump in the same breast. Had a bilateral mastectomy with reconstruction
