I posted about a month ago and didn't get any responses. I think it might be because I didn't have much information in the Profile section. I've updated my profile and did the best I can to describe my story. I had HDR Brachytherapy in 2018 to treat prostate cancer. The specifics are now in my Profile

I persuaded my onc to start me on this new drug in April. Since starting I have had great results. My first set of labs was great, so we backed off the amount of drug due to diarrhea. I had one set back on my 2nd blood tests but adjusted my meds and am back to lower values on tumor markers. My

Life Expectancy
My father was diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer four years ago. Initially, he underwent radiation for a few spots on his ribs and immediately began ADT/Xtandi treatment for two years. His PSA dropped to 0.001, prompting his medical oncologist to recommend a medication vacation. For two years, he

Normal CA-125
I am going in for a total hysterectomy on the 25th They suspect a Granulosa Cell Tumour due the presence of a mass on my ovary and thickened womb lining However my CA-125 is in the ‘normal’ range, I am just curious if others received a DX with normal CA-125? I am ready for whatever comes but just

Staring at my unopened bottle of Orgovyx
Well, D-day (or maybe O-day) has arrived (thank you FED-X). I'm about to do a swan dive into my battle against my PCa. After a week of searching for this stuff, my clinic found it in Louisville Kentucky at a pharmacy called Onco360. Not exactly a neighborhood corner market with me living on an island

Testosterone Recovery for 50% of Men
Here's an updated plot of Testosterone recovery time for 50% of men after stopping Lupron ADT, as a function of ADT duration. For ADT durations less than 20 months, the curve is basically linear with a slope = 1.0 (green line), meaning that the Recovery Time for 50% of men is roughly equal to the ADT

hot flushes
I’ve struggled with these for about twenty years and they have diminished over time. However, since going on preds, just over five weeks ago, they have got worse.

Trigger for PMR
Is the forum aware that a tumour or similar was the trigger for PMR in someone? My rheumatologist sent me for tumour screening, a lung X-ray and a colonoscopy. Or is the cause mostly unknown?

Radiation Confusion- please help clarify
Referred to and met with radiation oncologist because my PC is active again after almost 3 years. This will be my first experience with radiation.

Seen the Oncologist
The Oncologist examined me and has decided to send me for a scan to see if the lump has gotten any bigger. If so it could mean Surgery Radiotherapy or drugs, if its shrinking to stay on Tamoxifen and he would see me in months. So I'm just waiting for appointments at the moment Gordon (Redier)

Results of MRI...
Hello, Just received call from hospital saying MRI shows diseases stabilised ( no progression) and the doctor is very happy with it. This is after 3 rounds Caelyx/ Carbo with small decrease of ca 125 from 595 to 515 last time. I don't know what to think... Was expecting and praying so hard for decrease
