Prostate removal after radiation??
Since diagnosis (2016) I've had chemo (taxotere), 25 radiation sessions on my prostate, along with regular shots of ADT (Eligard). I currently have a PSA of .7 I recently had a PSMA scan, and the only cancer in my body at this point is in the prostate gland itself. The scans were sent to my urologist

Clarification on ALP and LDH markers
I was wondering if anyone can fill me in on Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) changes with second time docetaxel treatment. What do these values help indicate and is it normal to have them higher after one dose of chemo? I figure it takes a while for the chemo to have time to

O2 saturation and chemo
I finish my last does of paxlovis and starting to feel just slightly human. I thought the 4th dose of doxytaxel was horrible but it seems it is largely due to the covid. I ended up spending the whole day in the ER (with travel) for no reason. I has having widely fluctuating O2% and pulse I don't remember

Update on my father. Triplet therapy?
After my last post, my father underwent spinal cord decompression surgery - they did laminectomy and partial corpectomy of the fractured vertebrae and did pedicular screw fixation to stabilize the spine. It's been 2 weeks since surgery and he is prescribed bed rest for 4-6 weeks. After 1-2 more weeks

Chemo (Docetaxel) with Prednisone
Hi all, Zytiga stopped working for me and I am castrate-resistant. After a failed clinical trial (immunotherapy) I started Docetaxel 2 weeks ago and was prescribed Prednisone (5mg twice per day). I seem to be very sensitive to the Prednisone....having trouble sleeping, feeling anxious, etc. even when

Order of Pluvicto (Lu-177) vs. cabazitaxel/carboplatin chemo?
If there weren’t a supply chain shortage of Pluvicto my question is: Is there any scientific evidence for which order the treatments should be done? Did the Vision trial suggest anything? Thanks everyone.

visiting with a sore throat
Hi My mum’s treatment has been tricky so she is in hospital and had one round of chemo (carboplatin on 2ndJan). I had planned to visit her this week, tomorrow (9th) but today I’ve woken with a very sore throat. Do you think it’s best to stay away given where she is in the 21 day cycle.I’ve heard she

post chemo radiation initial scan
Hello everyone , had my post treatment scan done on the 30th dec and yesterday was the review meeting with oncologist… they said that this scan was a very early one ( only 3 weeks post treatment ) but they needed it because of the potential for immunotherapy that needs to be started within 43 days

Chemo for Lupus
Hi all, After an escalation in neurological Lupus symptoms and despite already having biological therapy and steroid infusions, I’m now going to be having
chemotherapy
. I’m a bit nervous to say the least. I’ve been told it’ll be over 6 weeks. Anyone else had this?
