Immunotherapy together with Abraxane
Dear All, I am starting Immunotherapy together with Abraxane on Friday 17.12.21. I am scared of side effects of treatment. I was diagnosed July 2019. Stage 4 BBC. I was put on Ibrance and letrozol. Had Masectomy August 2020 & Radiotherapy. Medication stopped working. Tumours now on chest and liver.

tomato sauce for prostate therapy
I saw a video where a holistic dr. mention that eating organic home cooked tomato sauce 3 to 4 times a week ,can prevent prostate cancer by %50, I would think those with mestastic prostate cancer can still help them along with what your doing like , radiation, surgery, and ADT. can't hurt because it

Chemotherapy Maintenance
I have now just started chemotherapy maintenance with Pemetrexed. Hopefully the side effects won't be as bad as the combination I've just finished. Still on the Prednisolone for the inflammation of my right lung due to Radiotherapy side effects. On a reducing scale now but stopped for a couple of days

Radiotherapy Side Effects -- Bad cough!
This has developed since finishing the 20 sessions. Is this normal? How long does it last? Thanks

Metastatic prostate cancer chronic lower back and pelvic pain which gets much, much worse at night.
Hi everyone! I have metastatic prostate cancer which has got into my bones. I’m currently on Zoladex long term hormone therapy following a 10 month course of chemotherapy which was not that successful so we’re looking at other options. FYI I have noted quite a lot of muscle wastage as a result of long

Patients located in France?? In urgent need of advice!!!
My father is getting a lot worse, all chemos failed, hormone therapy did not work either, genetic testing revealed no mutation and he now has very painful metastasis all over his spine ( no organs). PSA is 1900 and alcalina phosphates are high also. My father has an appointment on Thursday next week

Immunotherapy Schedule
I'm being put forward for Immunotherapy after very successful Chemo & Radiotherapy. Understand that the procedure will be every 3 weeks, but what happens if there is a clash with other events? For instance I intend to book a few holidays in 2022, would it be allowed to postpone treatments if they clashed

Chemo & Radiotherapy Complete - Good News But!
Finished Radiotherapy today, 20 sessions, after 6 cycles of Chemo. Oncologist showed me the Planning Scan results, after Chemo but before Radiotherapy. Result is that cancer has gone! But:- He advises I have Immunotherapy (Keytruda). Got to ask why? What will it do?

NCCN re-revises low-risk guidelines
This is probably a tempest in a teapot. NCCN, one of the top organizations that establishes the standard-of-care in the US, has once again changed its low-risk guidelines. It caused a bit of a storm earlier this year when they removed the word "[i]preferred[/i]" after "active surveillance" for low-risk

Radiotherapy Mask Fitting Today.
Hello everyone, hope all feeling positive, it's hard though all the time. Went to Salford Royal today for mask fitting. They soften the stuff they use and moulded it to my face, if you suffer from panic attacks I would think it's quite scary, because it's locked to the CT scan couch! They asked me to

radiotherapy to the prostate if metastasized out side of the prostate.
It would seem this procedure is not recommended as it is also for radical. Is there any reason a doctor would recommend this? Seems the horse is out of the barn.

Losing my determination
I was diagnosed with NSCLC in mid 2019 after extensive tests at a hospital with a specialist dept for diagnosis and forward treatment. One primary tumour in each lung and 2 lymph. They passed me over to the Oncology dept once diagnosis was complete. First was Pembrolizumab which gave a tangible improvement
