IBRT/SBRT Radiation and ADT
I have heard so many horrifying things here about adverse reactions to those who were prescribed ADT in conjunction with or shortly after radiation treatment. Has anyone forgone taking ADT therapy or does that ruin any progress made from radiation? I have read there is no evidence ADT actually improves

Suggestions for pain and exhaustion 2 weeks after radiation to C3?
Hi, I had 5 radiotherapy sessions with cyberknife on the C3 about 2 weeks ago. I noticed after the 1st session that the pain on the right side of my neck got more and more intense, from my neck down through my right shoulder. On day 4 I didn’t think I could make the last session, but I was pressured

Hi At age 32 I had a triple negative tumour removed (lumpectomy) followed by chemo and radiotherapy. Fast forward 31 years I have just had a mastectomy after I had an oestrogen positive tumour. No chemo needed-phew! The op was 3 weeks ago & I still have a large haematoma that has already been drained

PSA increasing during radiation treatment
Hi all, Please refresh my memory. Can PSA increase during radiation treatment due to cancer cells dying off? Last month 0.14 and today 0.26. On day #4 of radiation treatment. Thanks!

Could long term sleeping on the right hand side of the body affect the working of the liver on the same side?
I have to sleep on my right side, left side and irreparable brain damage from seizures. I have spinal damage due to surgery for removal of benign tumour/schwannoma in 1997. I have diabetes 2 [since March 2020] but I believe various readings could be heightened, blood sugar etc, due to general pressure

CA125 issue
Currently in hospital because not coping with the diarrhoea problems. Now they tell me I have avery high CA125 reading which indicates ovarian cancer. I have only 1 ovary which is invisible on scans and have had 2 clear CT scans and a clear ultrasound. Was wondering is radiotherapy can cause inflammation
