Lung Biopsy - Lucky?
During my 1st PEt scan for PC a shadow was revealed on my lung. Subsequent to my PC treatment I did a CT scan of the area and am undergoing a biopsy of that node in a few days. The pulmonary Dr. had doubts that it was from the PC since it was so far removed from the prostate and my cancer was not advanced

Radiotherapy
I’ve just finished a 3 week course of Radiotherapy and I feel dreadful. I’ve been very sick and it feels like flu. I’m very tired and sleeping a lot. Complete loss of appetite. I didn’t find chemotherapy as bad as this. Has anyone else had this experience ?

musician - hearing loss after surgery
Hi, I am a 49 year old musician and I was diagnosed with an Acoustic Neuroma in December 2023 and had to have surgery a few weeks later due to the size of the tumour and how ill I was. Since then I have been in recovery trying to get back all my functions (balance, stamina etc). Unfortunately the tumour

Moved from Abi to Nubeqa and saw a PSA increase
I recently switched from Abiraterone/Prednisone to Nubeqa because of the high blood pressure that I had with Abi requiring additional BP meds. I was previously .058 a month ago when I switched and .109 today, almost double in a month. Any one with experience with this switch?

2ND Opinion by Radiologist
I recently had mpMRI and PSMA/PET scans that indicate I have cancer in the Seminal Vesicles and Lymph Nodes. I want to have the slides sent to a radiologist for a 2nd opinion. Can anyone recommend a good radiologist that can complete this task.

Slowly Rising PSA - Getting Nervous
It seems in the last 4 months it has been rising more. Doctors are waiting until in gets to the standard 0.2 before starting radiation. I do understand why they need to wait as the PSA isn't high enough yet for the risk/reward of treatment. 03/17/2023 0.029 04/22/2023 0.032 08/23/2023 0.046 12/07/2023

? Cover required for endometrial biopsy
I have been on prednisolone for over 2 years now and still on 10mg. I have a hysteroscopy and endometrial biopsy planned tomorrow and although this is only a minor procedure with no general anaesthetic or sedation, I’m just wondering whether I will need any extra steroid cover? Does anyone have any knowledge

Enhancing my urinating experience?
Guys, Several weeks ago I started experiencing slow and weak urine stream for first time since diagnosis almost 6 years ago. This, coupled with rise in PSA, triggered my oncologist to order both MRI and PSMA scan. Would appear things are progressing and got referrals to radiation oncologist and urologist

Does having CLL really make you 3 times more likely to get (another) cancer, and does CLL treatment add to the risk? - Part 1
1. The risk of developing a Secondary Primary Malignancy
"[i]The higher risk of SPM associated with CLL has been recognized for many years, well prior to the modern therapy era. Manosow and Weinerman in 1975 demonstrated a three-fold increase of SPM and an eight-fold increase of SC in CLL[/i]

When to do certain blood tests and why.
Just coming up on my 6 month anniversary of radiation and my 2 months prior to radiation and 4 months post Lupron while on radiation. So I have been off Lupron for 2 months.

Did you know? Clinical trials provide new treatment options, especially if existing treatments have not worked. You may also receive more attentive care in a clinical trial study because it requires close observation and follow-up from a team of doctors. Join our live interactive workshop to learn more

New blood test to detect neuroendocrine PCa
Summary: Researchers have developed a blood test that can reliably detect neuroendocrine prostate cancer and differentiate it from castration-resistant prostate cancer-adenocarcinoma (CRPC-adeno). https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2024/01/240110120221.htm
