ICON8 Trial
Hello lovely ladies, I have had the results of the ICON8 trial today. I thought I'd already heard them and let you all know but for those that don't know anything about it, it was a trial to see if giving carboplatin every three weeks and paclitaxel once a week for a total of eighteen weeks would be

lung wedge resection
has anyone had this op? Is it better to have full lobe taken out? Will that reduce risk of having chemo after???

Preliminary report on Psilocybin trip?
Today I did a guided Psilocybin trip. I followed all the pre-trip instructions and had a guide for 6 hours. A preprogrammed musical tape was played. So far I am underwhelmed with the results but who knows. I had the main "intention" of coming to grips with earlier death than I had previously planned

When should you start taking Bisphosphonates, or bone strengthening medications.
I have been on continuous ADT since 2017 plus chemo and now Abiraterone with prednisone. The last year I have increased back and rib pain. The pain follows after I lift any heavy objects and usually at night when lying in bed. I defiantly have lost a lot of strength as well. I try and work out 3 times

First injection of Lu177-PNT2002 as part of SPLASH trial
I just received the first injection of Lu177 on 11/10/22. So far the side effects have not been bad. Fatigue has been the primary SE, along with headache. The fatigue is probably worse than what comes with ADT, but still very tolerable. There have luckily been no issues with nausea or diarrhea . Some

how long after Chemo finishes do we expect to get scans to see if treatment has worked? Also timescale after chemo will he get radiotherapy
hi all, my husband is currently on round 5 doctaxel and is wondering how long after his last round will it be before he gets scans? We have no indications of treatment working as his PC is non secretive PSA. His PSA was 3 when he was diagnosed with advanced PC and they said it will go down from there

ILC: Double Mastectomy-all breast tissue removed - Pathology showed positive margins.
My wife was diagnosed with Invasive Lobular Carcinoma in April. HR/PR positive (95%) Ki67-12%, HER2 1+ Negative. Oncotype test indicated or confirmed IV chemo would not be effect based of her ILC composition. Due to the size of the tumors she was put on Ibrance and Letrozole to help shrink the tumors

Carboplatin
It's not a term I'm familiar with but I understand it is a form of
chemotherapy
given intravenously. The list of potential side effects is long, daunting and in some instances quite frightening. I'm wondering if anyone here has any experience - whether bad or good - they are willing to share.

Update on PSA with Xtandi--it has gone down!
Update on my PSA, July it was .01 19 Oct 2022 -----PSA is less than .01 I am very thankful. I do not have any bone pain. I still have some side effects from chemo, like neuropathy on my right foot. Still have some lymphoedema to deal with, and I have some inflammation. (I think from Xtandi. ) Xtandi

How fast does jevanta work
Completed 4 rounds of chemo with jevanta, 5th one next week, psa was 48 but dropped to 26 but today back to 29, does your psa fluctuate and should it not drop faster ? Maybe I am worrying over the slight increase, how have others done on this ? Am I expecting too much to soon, I am tolerating the treatments

Sertraline
I think I know what everyone is going to say but does anyone have anything positive to say about sertraline and restless legs? If anybody followed my previous post I have stage 4 breast cancer and need a mild antidepressant to help me cope. Having chatted with my GP we both feel I would benefit more
