Secondary breast cancer
Has anyone had secondary breast cancer in the bones? I need some help and advice. I had breast cancer stage 3, 7 years ago. I’ve been having a pain in my bottom for a while. First I thought it was internal haemorrhoids but now it seems to be the whole left buttock and I am wondering if the cancer has

Carbo/caelyx 2nd line
Hi all, I am about to start my 2nd line of chemo, carbo/caelyx, having done carbo/taxol/avastin first time round. I was hoping to just get to immunotherapy tbh but it looks like you need to do at least 2 series of chemo first to be eligible... so, anyone else had a similar treatment plan? Did it

Video of my first SBRT
This link is to a video of my first SBRT treatment on April 29, 2024. Thought people might be interested. https://youtu.be/KtyxcqYOnVM The CyberKnife unit is locked on the fiducials in my prostate to within 0.1 to 0.2 mm (.004 to .008 in). The internal computer follows any movement the patient make

After Radiation, what should PSA be?
intermediate pc, with 3+4, 3+4, and 4+3. PSMA clean. Went through SBRT, am on Lupron. Seven months in. usual side effects, especially exhaustion. I went for a PSA and testosterone test today. Should my PSA be undetectable?

Need practical advice re:RRP for 76 year-old in fair shape
Hi everyone, My husband, just turned 76, is having a robotic radical prostatectomy on 5/13. He is (so far) Gleason 4+3, high Decipher score., clean PSMA. We eventually chose surgery as he's also been in retention for many months due to a median lobe, he preferred that to doing a HoLep followed by radiation

Precancerous polyps removed, new symptoms 8 years later
So 8 years ago I had a colonoscopy due to severe constipation, a backup in my bowels, mucus and slight bleeding. They removed seven polyps, four of which were pre-cancerous, the largest polyp being 7 mm. They told me to be checked again in 4 years which I was, and it came back clear. Lately, I'd say

Pluvicto Treatment
So, I just completed my 3rd round of Pluvicto and my primary oncologist wanted me to do a CT scan w/contrast and a bone scan. The Ct showed some increase in cancer in the liver and a number of other spots. I am only doing Pluvicto and no other treatment as requested. Are there other people who are receiving

Tamoxifen v Acid Reflux
Hi All I have been clear from hormone related breast cancer for 3 years now. I am 62 & post menapausal . I changed medication from anastrozole to tamoxifen last month to try to help slow my osteopenia, as I do not get on with bisphosphonates. Unfortunately it appears to have aggravated my hiatus

tp53 mutation
Hi All, my dad has been diagnosed with CLL and has just had it confirmed that he has the TP53 mutation/deletion. He is stable at the moment and is currently on watch & wait. His consultant has said if and when he starts treatment it will be for life or until it isn’t effective. I’ve read lots that say

Different mutation?
I was just checking via my NHS app what had been sent to my GP, when I noticed on a letter from Guys this - it listed my mutations - CGN - normal karotype, NGS - CALR, L2AF1, ASXL2. (High risk markers) Previously I thought I was ASXL1, it could be a typo I suppose but does anyone know the difference
