Another Brain Met
Consultant says if clear they will proceed with
radiotherapy
to brain. What is she saying then, that if cancer has spread they will just leave me to die.

Radiotherapy and adhesive dressings
Hi, I am having
radiotherapy
to breast/chestwall skin mets. I have an adhesive dressing in place and was advised at the planning appointment that the dressings would need to be off for
radiotherapy
to that area. A "bolus" is being used to enhance the dose to the skin.

Zytiga progress now moving to xtandi
Basically he proposed to move my drug to Xtandi (with no steroids) and give me one session of
radiotherapy
on my left hip which has apparently taken a bashing. I took Zytiga. For just 10 weeks. Any insights on Xtandi appreciated.

Should I ask for a new assessment
I had two sessions of palliative
radiotherapy
, one week apart, in Nov 21 to help keep the lower lobe functional which did improve my breathing a little. I received no further treatment or consultations after Dec 21. I have improved a lot in the last 3 months.

Prazosin revisited
His answer was that the new study, although progression free survival and PSA kinetics will be measured, is primarily a feasibility study to help guide development of a large-scale clinical trial for use of Prazosin by men undergoing
radiotherapy
for prostate cancer.

Surviving Esophageal Cancer: “I’ve kept my promise”
Over the following three months, I had an intensive course of weekly chemotherapy and daily
radiotherapy
to halt the tumour’s growth and then shrink its size. Then following a period of rest to recover for the operation, I underwent robotic keyhole surgery on March 15, 2019.
