Decipher question
First post. Age 67. Unfavorable intermediate PCa. 4+3 in 4 cores/20; 3+4 in 6 cores/20. Simple cribriform. Some PI in 2 cores. PSMA pet scan shows no evidence of meta. .66 Decipher score. Decipher says that with this score, I have an 8.6% risk of metastasis in 10 years if treated with RT or RP

My PSA started rising six months ago, at first slowly, but now very rapidly. It went from 0.04 to 0.05 then 0.17 (in three

She doesn’t act that way with me…
I’ve known since my daughter was 2 years old that something was going on, but everyone around me tries to explain it away. It seems like to them having ADHD and sensory processing disorder is the kiss of death and all is lost for her. Why do I have to over explain her symptoms and diagnoses? If I say

PSMA-Addition Trial can give access to Pluvicto for DeNovo or mHSPC
The range of access to Pluvicto (Lu177-PSMA-617) radionuclide treatment is expanding. Great news. The PSMA-Fore trial recently showed that it iis very beneficial before docetaxel chemotherapy in mCRPC. Now a worldwide trial is exploring it in metastatic hormone sensitive PC, including de novo metastatic
