Does HBOT stimulate cancerous tissue?
I’m considering HBOT for cystitis and proctitis 11 months after HDR Brachyboost with pelvic SBRT. Just finished 1 year ADT. Here’s my concern. 11 months later, I know my cancerous cells are still in the process of dying and not being able to divide anymore. The idea of HBOT is to increase certain

Introduction and asking for help interpreting latest scan results and thoughts on future treatment plan please.
Long time reader but first time posting.. I have just received my latest PSMA PET-CT scan results and would like some help interpreting the results and gain your thoughts about situation and treatment plan. My overall history: After slowly rising PSA scores to a relatively low peak of 6.1 at 59 years

Went to appointment with Radiation Oncologist at Emory St. Joseph's Winship Cancer Center - Dr. Bruce Hershatter. Good guy, no BS, straight shooter. He actually drew it out on a sheet of paper (front & back, back was worse) for me and talked me and my friend through the options (1) and pretty much

Darolutamide (Nubeqa) Vs Enzalutamide ( Xtandi)
Are there any studies comparing efficacy and side effect profile of darolutamide Vs enzalutamide when given together with first generation ADT ? I read that darolutamide does not cross blood brain barrier so may have lesser side effects ?

Treatment awaited
Hi all I just completed my history incorrectly as a post. I have not posted before as I have been a silent member without any worrying ongoing elevations in PSA for about four years. I have keenly observed the posts of members and learned a good deal from them. This post is the follow up on my history

advice please!
Hello. I was diagnosed about a year ago with stage 4 prostate cancer. I was on hormone therapy but that is no longer surprising the cancer. It is in my bones, currently spreading in my pelvic bone and lumbar. I hope to start chemotherapy in the next month. But with my current health I don’t know

ADT and creativity
I am a composer. Since I had ADT (Eligard - last shot in early April) I have experienced the conventional side effects - hot flashes, larger breasts, shrunken penis, no libido, tiredness. I am hoping those diminish over time. My question is to those who are occupational "creatives" - artists, writers
