Relieved!
just had CT scan to access pain and discomfort. All good! Also, lymph nodes decreased in size about 50%. My doctor attributes the pain to Zanubrutinib side effect. Hopefully it will only be temporary. Looks like treatment is working! Thanks for all the input!

Residual tumour regrowth
Hi there, I had surgery in 2021 to remove a large AN. My follow-up MRI scans showed that all was well--until the last one, which shows regrowth. It's slight (from 17 x 5 mm to 22 x 7 mm) but it still really scares me. My consultation with my neurosurgeon (the one who saved me before) isn't until the

Immunotherapy before/after or concurrent with Chemotherapy

Hello fellow fighters! My husband has recently finished 6 rounds of Pluvicto and his PSMA PET scan has shown considerable spread throughout his bones. His PSA continued to rise during the Pluvicto treatment and the RO convinced us that it was probably just debris field from the dying bone lesions. It

ESMO 2024: Opevesostat (MK-5684/ODM-208) in metastatic CRPC updated CYPIDES phase 2 results

ESMO 2024: Cabozantinib plus Atezolizumab versus 2nd novel hormonal therapy inmetastatic CRPC, overall survival results of CONTACT-02 Study

Generative AI tool to help with immunohistochemistry
This is a very interesting system! Thanks to Justfor_ for sending me the references. In cancer research, staining involves coloring tissues to highlight specific features under a microscope. Common techniques like H&E staining help visualize the general structure, while immunohistochemistry (IHC)

KEYTRUDA Side Effects
Hi All, After failing docetaxel and pluvicto my MO put me on KEYTRUDA. Yesterday, 13 September, I experienced some very painful side effects. My neck was really stiff, which made moving it painful and difficult. The other issue was that all my joints and nerve endings felt like they were on fire. Moving

GCA Training in Scanning at Leeds
I took part in this training yesterday as a volunteer 'patient'. It was interesting seeing how different doctors managed, or had difficulty, practicing scanning on me. I was lucky that the tutor in my room was Prof Dasgupta. 3 trainees at a time and 3 groups over 1.5 hours, quite intensive. I picked
