Post triple therapy options?
This past summer, I wrote because my husband's PSA numbers started doubling very quickly. (see quick recap below) By the time we got the PSMA PET scan a few weeks later, there were too many tumors in the bones to count. We jumped into triple therapy: Eligard, Nubeqa, and chemo. David's last chemo (6

Hi I was diagnosed with stage 3 high grade cancer in March at the age of 54. I am wondering if others have been diagnosed at a similar age as I sometimes feel I am the only one. I had a surgery last year followed by sepsis and a stay in hospital! My chemo finished in mid September and I am now NED and

Smartwatch ecg
I was diagnosed with mild LVSD after
chemotherapy
treatment and have been on bisoprolol and ramipril for a few years. I've recently discovered my watch can do ecg's , but my results do not look like my husbands and all the other 'normal' ecgs online. They have large waves.

Second Recurrence
I was originally diagnosed in December 2018 with stage 3 high-grade primary peritoneal carcinoma. It recurred in December 2022. I had the same chemo both times: carbo/taxol. It appears that I have another recurrence because my CA 125 was 8 this past November. Then, it rose to 22 in December and today

Docetaxel and Carboplatin
I’ve been on the PC journey for 12 years. I’ve had lupron and all the standard “poisons” that we get, including Pluvicto. My PSA is now up to 99.5. I have bone mets in my lower back and sacrum w periodic pain that’s controlled w pain meds. My oncologist is recommending a chemo concoction of Docetaxel

Verzenio Monotherapy

Rejoining the world - An update on my cancer experience as a patient with cirrhosis
People have been asking how I was doing so I thought it was time to provide an update. A quick review. I was having very painful time with back muscle cramps and had a fall which resulted in 3 compression fractures. While dealing with that I saw my PCP who identified that I was having a critical calcium

Starting Chemo again, Cabazitaxel Has anybody experienced any side effects that have been unusually bad?
After having been NED for the past six years I now have to go back on Chemo treatments. The first round of Chemo was with Taxotere and now My Cancer has become castrate resistant. PSA is now no longer a good indicator for disease progression. I'm not looking forward to doing this but it's what has to
