Radiotherapy Completed
Yesterday I completed my 25 daily blasts of fractionated
stereotactic
radiotherapy
. Woohoo! No more daily commutes to Chelsea Marsden. Can't say I've had any side effects so far, although my tinnitus seems slightly louder this morning while listening to the radio.

Radiation for cancer other than thyroid.
Does radiation treatment for breast cancer affect thyroid medications? Does dose need to be adjusted during or after treatment?

HDR boost Brachytherapy + IMRT
Hi all, This is my first post since being diagnosed with g9 metastatic PC. PSMA PET showed several pelvic lymph nodes with Mets, but no other spread, and bones are clean. I’m trying to finalize my choice of radiation treatments. I’m currently on Lupron and Zytiga, and PSA is dropping like a rock

Bilateral frontal calvarial metastases
Has anyone in the forum experienced bilateral frontal calvarial metastases associated with their PCa? I recently had a brain MRI where this metastases was identified. The assessing physicians impression was that there is no worrisome parenchymal or leptomeningeal enhancement and did not recommend any

Lung cancer
Diagnosed with lung cancer very high in lung, Doctor says it's very difficult to get for biopsy, and then tells me that as I weigh 130 kg I might not be suitable for radiotherapy, is this right?

after iADT and recurrence: SATURN trial
Upshot. Intense short term ADT and radiation therapy for "oligorecurrence" after iADT https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0302283824000587 The reason you have to like it is that it should not require new drug development and trials etc. I wonder if it would be applicable to oligorecurrence

Scientific fact-check, please?
I’m working on page 44 of my cancer comic, and I’m trying to explain how radiation therapy works, in very generalized terms. Obviously I’m simplifying and stylizing some of the cellular level stuff, but can the more scientific of y’all check the overall factual nature of the page? I’m going to ask the

PSA Bounce After Radiation Therapy
I am trying to understand PSA bounce or change in PSA levels after RT and have found two studies useful. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7465291/ https://www.nature.com/articles/s41391-021-00387-4 Some analysts distinguish between PSA bounce and biological recurrence, and see a possibility

Radiotherapy
I’ve just finished a 3 week course of Radiotherapy and I feel dreadful. I’ve been very sick and it feels like flu. I’m very tired and sleeping a lot. Complete loss of appetite. I didn’t find chemotherapy as bad as this. Has anyone else had this experience ?

post radiation. Currently on ADT. PSA slight increase ?
Hey all, My father who started at 226PSA has finished radiation treatment about a year ago.: and remains on ADT. his PSA was sitting 0.03 but has jumped to 0.08. Is this any cause for concern? I took it as a positive as it sounds extremely low but now second guessing ..

RT with ADT Relogolix (Orgovyx) vs Enzalutamide (Xtandi) Side Effect Differences?
There may not be a lot of people that can offer anecdotal reports on both as monotherapies but the reason I ask is some studies in the last 3 years are showing administration of Xtandi during Radiotherapy has shown outcomes as good as if not better than RT + ADT. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science

felt a bit bruised
Hi. I had only five days radiation. Didn’t feel tired. My breast and below my breast and ribs, felt bruised. But went after a few months. I found finding a comfortable bra was more of a problem because of swelling from the op and also radiotherapy. Hope all goes well for you.

ADT with radiation?
I have a G 4+3, considered to be unfavorable intermediate risk, but a Decipher score of .4, considered to be low risk. I have opted to have radiation to treat my PCa. Do I need to take ADT with the radiation therapy? My MO suggested 4 to 6 months of Orgavix (not sure if I'm spelling it correctly). If
