My cancer has morphed to treatment-emergent small-cell neuroendocrine prostate cancer.
Hi Guys, I had a TURP in July and the pathology report came back that my prostate cancer cells were small-cell neuroendocrine type, while my original diagnosis was adenocarcinoma Gleason 10. The cancer has grown up the side of my bladder, which has caused a bladder bleed which needed a repair under

Cyberknife is in my future
Hey Guys, I have been advised (by my Uro and Radiation Oncologist and Medical Oncologist) that I need to get some local control as I haven't had a radiation to the prostate before. I was diagnosed Gleason 10 2.5 years ago and I've been through chemo (Docetaxel) ADT (Zoladex implants 3 monthly). Since

I'm new here.
My husband is 78 and was diagnosed with cancer of unknown primary (mets to a number of bones in the spine and lymph nodes) but likely prostrate cancer in February, 2018 after he had a TURP (no cancer detected through TURP tissue). We live in Canada. Because they never found a primary tumour there is

Pain in the Prostate (worse after TURP)
Hey Guys, I have two questions: 1) over the past 8-12 months I've had lots of pain in the prostate area. It can be stabbing pain or a dull ache, which keeps me awake at night. It gets much worse when I walk, mow the lawn or stand up for extended periods of time. My Uro said it could be prostatitis, but

TURP scheduled tomorrow - concerns
Hi everyone, have this op planned for Monday in UK and wondering if it will help me. I can pee about 50% flow these days and the main reason they want to do it is to get a tissue sample for the Royal Marsden so they can genetically sequence the disease and see if I qualify for any drug trials (no biopsy

Enzalutamide is sapping my energy and spirit
Been on this drug for 4 months and PSA is still rising past 100 (at much slower rate though). I also hate how I feel on it - really yucky, super fatigued and brain fogged (nasal blockage issues too). All this only really started in the past 6 weeks or so. Also finding exercise extremely difficult - steady

Complete blockage, need TURP
2 months after HIFU, I woke up and went to pee and only drops came out. This went on for a few days then I went to urgent care. Skipping past the horrible care by doctors in Vegas, I returned to my HIFU doctor in Los Angeles who scoped it and found a blockage and recommended TURP. That is scheduled for

Need help with Lupron question
As some of you know I’m Gleason 3+4. Will have TURP in August and then 28 sessions of proton therapy starting in November. My close friend was diagnosed 4+3 shortly after. He’s being told by 3 oncologists (IMRT/proton) that it would be best to do 4 months of Lupron plus the radiation. Other testing

TURP and Enzalutamide advice
Hi everyone, I'm dealing with widespread metastatic PCa at 50 years old, diagnosed last Aug. I'm on Enzalutamide now (plus Lupron since Oct) but not responding very much after almost 3 months 😔. PSA still rising (84 last week, up from 72)... also... really feel like crap a lot of the time on this second-line

Muscle atrophy
My father experiences muscle atrophy. His whole life he was skinny (he can eat whatever he liks but never gains weight), but had muscles. Now that summer is coming and he is wearing short sleaves, I noticed his arms and chest became very weak. He was diagnosed in September 2016 after TURP procedure
