My MBC is to the hip bone. Just wondering if others have had problems with healing radiation burns. I had 15 radiation treatments which finished on Oct. 9th. Now, 6 weeks later, though mostly healed, there are 2 or 3 open sores that just won't heal or they heal over and get opened again. I have large

Pain!
4 years ago I had a laparoscopic surgery, for (in technical words) diathermy of endometriosis, adhesiolusis, bilateral tuboplasty for blocked Fallopian tubes secondary to endometriosis and ovarian cystectomy. I’m starting to go through fertility and so I had a internal and external scan to see if any

Hard epididymis
Hi, just looking for some advice to see if anyone else has this same experience... I'm 43 years old and had vasectomy 3 years ago. I have had aching testicles intermittently since then and I do suspect a varicocele on the right side as I can feel a large collection of tubes/veins. But my main concern

Can a vasectomy fail?
I had a vasectomy in June this year. Thankfully I took plenty of bed rest and made a speedy recovery from the op. The soerm test after 8 or 12 weeks showed it was clear. I had asked the surgeon if the op could fail and my wife could get pregnant again. He said the rate of vasectomy failures is quite

New cancer vaccine trial helped kill breast cancer cells in Mayo patient (October 10, 2019 news item)

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.

Has anyone had success with Keytruda and then stopped treatment?
I was first diagnosed with bladder cancer in 2016. During the first year, I had a nephrectomy, cystectomy and prostatectomy along with other treatments. After all that, the cancer had metastasized to my lung. I began chemotherapy and after a year, the tumors had diminished, but my remaining kidney

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

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

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.
