colon cancer/scalp cancer link?
I read via google that colon cancer sometimes spreads to the scalp. Has anyone heard of or can confirm this? Reason I ask, I am awaiting scheduling for my colonoscopy (I'm in the USA, minimum 4-6 weeks wait to book an appointment). I am also having sores on my scalp and a potential enlarged lymph

B/C ratio
Is there a connection between prostate cancer and BUN/Creatinine ratio? Mine almost doubled in the last three months. Couldn't find anything out from Doctor Google :) Thanks.

ADT + darolutamide + docetaxel (ARASENS trial) has anyone tried it?
Hi people! My first update since the diagnosis. After less than one month of regrouping and ADT only (decapeptyl - triptotrelin, which got my PSA from 70 to 15), my MO decided to do the ARASENS trial triplet (with my full approval, I was going to propose him this protocol). Has anyone tried it?

SMALL-CELL NEUROENDOCRINE CARCINOMA
Following prostate cancer first treated with low dose brachytherapy, then ten years later with high dose brachytherapy, from a biopsy following a Turp, I was diagnosed with SMALL-CELL NEUROENDOCRINE CARCINOMA. From a CT scan this was found in my prostate, bladder, and lower colon. I am told that it

Testing if Aromatise inhibitors work for you- you might be able to stop taking them
I recently had a test ordered that I found out was from a sample from my lumpectomy from 6 years ago. It was a test to see if Tamoxifen or any of the aromatase inhibitors work are helpful to take for my breast cancer. I would need to look up my exact diagnosis as I can’t remember exactly. I know it was

Reconstruction after Mastectomy
Happy Holidays!!! I was wondering if there's anyone who's had a mastectomy with reconstruction and regretted it. I'm 43 MBC and there's a mass in tge same breast they've been watching but I think it's time to have the mastectomy as a preventative measure. Anyone willing to share their experiences?

from undetectable to 0.02
I have been undetectable for 3.25 years and today it came back at 0.02. My bio is up to date. We ran the test at the exact same lab as always and in 2 days I am flying back to my Sarasota home from Milwaukee and was wondering which lab is recommended for 2 digit accuracy? I know Labcorp only does 1

Abiraterone SE when added to Lupron?
I am a PSA =2, low volume, oligometastic HSPC. I got my first Lupron shot 4 weeks ago. I started to get a couple hot flashes per day in the last week from the Lupron and of course I expect fatigue to kick in over the next six weeks. What additional side effects might I expect by adding the abiraterone

Merry Christmas Despite Progression
Hello all! Today I’m supposed to be with my family in my hometown but found out Monday I have progression in my spine, ribs, pelvis and liver so spent this week in the hospital getting bone cement injection to repair a compound fracture in my spine and begin radiation. Thankfully I was released yesterday

Any thoughts please
Hello. After a 5 day stint in hospital for hypercalcemia and kidney stones and a whole host of xrays and scans which have shown nodules on my thyroid, I've now been referred to an endocrine surgeon. Any thoughts on why they've made that referral. I'm new to this and totally confused because of lack

Managing post surgery expectations
I had a radical prostatectomy and lymph node dissection on 9/12 and my catheter removed on 9/22. (Surgery was successful and I received the best pathology report possible.) As I am now at the very early stages of getting urinary control back, I'm struggling to understand what might be "normal" or "expected

Finished 8 Rounds of Docetaxel
Hi Fellow Warriors, Four weeks ago I finished up 8 rounds of Docetaxel. This year has been a medical shit show: 2 UTIs, pneumonia, Covid, sepsis, sinus infection which became chronic sinusitis, numerous falls with the last fall resulting in a dislocated hip. The good news! Before starting Docetaxel

Tumor Mutation Burden
Last genetic test has shwon TMB 10.86 and the orevious one (in March, 2023) showed the value of 8.68. Will increased TMB require the addition of PARP inhibitors to my current therapy consisting of Loupron and Abiraterone? Anyone has similar experience? My history can be seen under bio. Just to add that
