Holiday inspiration!
Hi lovely ladies, After reading about Beth’s amazing travels in New Zealand, I hope to encourage you to follow your dreams with travel when you can. I am from the UK, and was crushed when I had to cancel my planned silver wedding anniversary trip to New England twice, the first time because of the pandemic

New drug approved by the FDA in November.
Just wanted to post that a new drug in the battle against ovarian cancer has been approved by the FDA under the name Elahere . My terrific oncologist discussed it with me l during my last appointment. As always , there is a catch , it is based on your having a certain protein present for it to work

Tooth pulled yesterday afternoon.
I called my regular dentist yesterday morning and he got me in that afternoon. Tooth pulled using Novocain and nitrous. Tooth came out easily and in plenty of time for infection to clear and for me to get back on chemo late next week. Thanks for all your help, ladies. Sashay

Strange 😱foot and hand side effects while on capecitabine/Xeloda.
I am a POC (son schooled me saying it means person of color — millennials!). Well I am a Black woman with MBC. I have had unusual horrible experiences while on Xeloda! Instead of getting blisters and burns on feet and hands the bottom of my feet are darkened turning the color black ⚫️and so are my hands

Does each remission get shorter?
My first recurrence has been confirmed after one year of remission. I think I'll be given more chemo. I know some women have had many recurrences, each one treated as well as possible. If you achieve a second, or third, or fourth remission, is it usually for a shorter period each time?Thanks, all.

I was so worried about getting in to get the tooth pulled. But my regular dentist will pull it this afternoon, so I will be able to have chemo next week. I swear, that man is a saint. Anyway, I am so relieved and I want to thank my teal sisters for helping me with this problem. Sashay

Curcumin (Theracurmin) Improves Mild Cognitive Impairment and Memory - A Randomized Clinical Trial
This is a remarkable study of the effects of a highly bioavailable form of Curcumin, "Theracurmin", on memory in non-demented aging adults, including those diagnosed with MCI, Mild Cognitive Impairment. What we call "Chemo-Brain" is a form of MCI resulting from cancer treatments including chemotherapy

Day 3 on Xeloda
Fed ex was supposed to deliver my Xeloda Wednesday morning. That's what the specialty pharmacist and my onc's nurse had told me, and I even got an email saying it was out for delivery that morning. My husband put off some things he'd planned to do so he would be here to sign for the first delivery.

A hypothetical question regarding going castrate resistant.
I was having a debate with a friend who believes that once you go castrate resistant while on Orgovyx, you will never reverse that without second generation meds, or any further treatment like radiation, chemo, or Pluvicto. This is assuming the prostrate had been surgically removed. The basic question

Update
The results of my husbands’s bone marrow biopsy shows that the prostate cancer is widespread in his bone marrow and are causing him to have low blood cell levels. He was told he could to chemo with a low level dose of Taxo or go to hospice. I am sharing so people have info on end of life choices.
