Advice please (bladder cancer)
Hi All, I was diagnosed with terminal prostate cancer in 2017. It has spread to my bladder. About 1cm in June 2023, it has grown to about an inch last January, so I was advised then to start chemotherapy which I’m still on and which seems to be holding it in check. I continue to get a splash of red

Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate
My foley catheter has become extremly painful lever since I did a round of IMRT back in March. My urologist is reluctant to intervene but the catheter has become so painful that he is considering a TURP so that I can possibly rid myself of the foley. After doing a bit of reasearch I read an article

Peeing , what to do?
My husband has had issues with peeing for years ( probably why stage 4 at diagnosis, cause blamed BPH) . He recently finished last chemo 3 weeks ago and is again noticing a change when peeing. Says that he feels a great deal of pressure towards the end of the pee stream and feels like the end of his

Doxazosin
I am on 4 mg Doxazosin twice a day, combined with 2.5 mg Bendromethiazide and 100 mg Losartan. The Doxazosin was increased due to an increase in BP reading, and we opted for Doxazosin as at the time I had an enlarged prostate. The prostate has now been treated with a TURP operation. I am suffering from

Enlarged Prostate
I have an enlarged prostate and I am trying to determine if I should be taking medicines or have a procedure such as TURP. I would like to get some experiences of people that have taken Flomax or other medicines to reduce the prostate size. I have an allergy to sulfa, what makes me a little nervous about

Prostatic Artery Embolization
I’m 67 year old and have been suffering with BPH for years. Don’t want to do TURP or lasers. I’m interested in doing PAE. Has anyone had this procedure done. Does it work. I had a cystoscope and the urologist found a medial lobe at the neck of the bladder. Would PAE work if the blockage is located there

Swollen cord-stump after castration?
I got castrated three years ago, because the boys were inflammated, hard and numb. The right one cut out inguinal, got examinamed in pathology with result: no cancer. Thereby the left one got cut out from his sac-shelf directly, so i have the cord stump still in my inguinal left. It was often swollen

I'm Steve and live in Western Kentucky, near Evansville, Indiana. We live in my husband's hometown - moved here two years ago from the Sacramento, California, region.

Looking for advice for my newly diagnosed dad
Hello, I was wondering if you can offer some thoughts on my dad’s situation. He was diagnosed with prostate cancer in February after a week in hospital with urine retention. A Ct scan he had in hospital showed 2 small mets in pelvic area. He’s had a biopsy which showed Gleason 4 +5 and his PSA in hospital

After Urolift Failure What next
I had the Urolift procedure in June 2021. No change to symptoms at all apart from near 'urgency incontinence'. A recent cystoscopy revealed that one end of one of the four implants used was in my bladder (rare occurrence) which has started to 'crust' and a stone has formed which has now been lasered

Help! Prostate cancer spread to bladder.
Diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer in 2017, confined to bones and lymph nodes. After chemotherapy, have had a great run on drugs, but a bladder neck incision last June confirmed that it had spread to my bladder, about 1cm poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma on the left side. The urologist seemed

Ferrittin level (Different Opinions)
Last Wednesday (26th July) I had my 3 monthly blood test in relation to my Myelofibrosis and asked for my Ferrittin level and TSATS to be checked also. The Nurse/Clinician found Ferrittin on the data base but not TSATS and was a bit baffled by the whole TSATS thing. I concluded that I would only get

Aquablation with APC
Hi there - does anyone here have experience with an aquablation procedure to improve urinary symptoms? My father is considering it. He has been on doublet therapy for 1.5 years, his PSA recently started to tick up a little. It's been difficult to get a clear answer on whether the procedure poses any

anal leakage and constipation
my husband has aggressive metastatic prostate cancer Gleason 8 with mets to lymph nodes, bladder, and pelvic bones and hips. He is scheduled to start triplet therapy in the next 2 weeks. Last week he underwent a TURP procedure in hopes to get rid of the catheter which he had for over 2 months. Unfortunately
