ibrance
I’ve been taking ibrance with faslodex since 2018. I had to stop taking ibrance because of hospitalization (3) for infections that I needed my immune system to fight. Probably 6 months. In that time I developed nodules (small) in bowel, pelvis and cervical 2. I was taken off both ibrance and faslodex

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

Abiraterone edema management
One of the fun things I am getting as an SE while on lupron/abiraterone/prednisone is fluid retention. Edema and getting up to pee 3-4 times nightly (losing 3-4 lbs of weight during the night.) What if anything can be done about this?

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

Enzalutamide + Lupron
There was a new study released last week to show Enzalutamide + Lupron for high risk patients after RP or Radiation. I had RP 3/22 and PSA rising to .14 by 8/22 when I started Orgovyx and then later Zytiga. I've been having neuropathy side effects from Zytiga and interested if this might be better.

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

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
