I've Dodged the Big Bullet, Again!
One of my good friends came in to my hospital. room and said that I used another one of my many (nine) lives. I'm not in the hospital, now. I am in my very comfortable home on a lake, hopefully getting better from the recent really scary diagnosis of acute liver failure. Even I was worried. The cancerous

another quick update
I am now back home . My gall bladder has calmed down so the plan is to have it removed in next 10 weeks ( that’s the waiting time ) My biggest concern now is that the CT scan I had on Monday has revealed a 5cm mass in my stomach. I am awaiting a CT biopsy which my haematologist has requested as

From initial diagnosis through every lab test, imaging study, and treatment decision, this journey took enormous physical, emotional and spiritual fortitude. No matter the course or the length, hold your loved ones close, continue to plan adventures, and never give up hope. My husband used to say “

Anecdotal, but running could boost immunity
I am reading a lovely book of essays called These Precious Days by Ann Patchett. In the title essay a friend of the author is taking part in a clinical trial, having chemotherapy for pancreatic cancer. As you will know, Chemo destroys white blood cells which provide immunity, so you have to have a high

In vivo: nanocarriers to deliver precision chemotherapy

Accuracy of PSMA PET scan?
What would you venture to guess is the accuracy of the PSMA PET scan? How many of you showed "no spread" with your PSMA scan, but then learned via surgery or otherwise that there WAS spread which wasn't detected with the PSMA scan? And, how much better is the new Posluma scan vs Pylarify? My husband

Pluvicto Question
Hi Fellow Warriors! Six months of Taxotere failed miserably. After 8 rounds, I was done. After chemo, my second PSMA-PET showed additional bone mets and a spread to the lymph nodes. My MO told me I was a good candidate for Pluvicto, so, three months after finishing Taxotere, I started that therapy

Hi All good advisers. Have been on pred for CGA since July 2023, starting at 60mg. now at 12 mg with very slow taper. I am having a kidney urogram this April. I am also on metformin 3 x daily 500 mg. I have read that I should stop taking metformin before this procedure. How many days before should

borderline tumor
Hi, my consultant can see a 2.2cm cyst on my ovary that he said might be a borderline tumor. Needless to say I am worried, what are the chances of the tumor being actual cancer? Does anyone know how accurate an ultrasound is? They are doing an MRI soon but I am going out of my mind with worry.

Tonsil Stones from IVF Treatment - Anyone Else?
I began my first cycle of IVF back in the summer of 2020. Whilst in treatment and injecting Gonal F, I started having tonsil stones. These are debris that builds up and sit in your tonsils causing some discomfort. I ended up doing 4 rounds of IVF so obviously the drugs/hormones messed up my body somewhat

Issues sleeping, and other things
Diagnosed with chronic bronchitis 2 years ago. I had some sort of flare in Jan that never settled. Two weeks ago I started doxy followed by azithro & 10 days of steroids. Some mild SOB on incline walking in the last month. Normally I clear my mucus with sea swimming (fit & active 40 yr old M). A week

Bilateral frontal calvarial metastases
Has anyone in the forum experienced bilateral frontal calvarial metastases associated with their PCa? I recently had a brain MRI where this metastases was identified. The assessing physicians impression was that there is no worrisome parenchymal or leptomeningeal enhancement and did not recommend any
