Taxotere and fingerprints.
Here's a chemo side-effect I'd not heard mentioned here... After three rounds of taxotere to date my fingerprints aren't completely gone, but even with retraining my TouchID Mac and phone won't respond to them. To my eye they look smooth, but a close up photo reveals there's still a pattern. The skin

Ending Avastin
I had my final (18th) Avastin on Monday. The overwhelming feeling is relief; relief to have finished and to be here to have finished. I am also hoping to have a period of freedom from medical treatment for the first time in 2 years, and hopefully all the joint and muscle aches will subside a bit. It's

Cellulitis in foot and hands, leading to dramatic skin changes all over my body
I have primary lymphoedema in my left foot which has been well controlled through compression and daily creaming of the affected area. Despite showing no signs of any lesion I developed cellulitis which went un-diagnosed for a week or so as I was unaware of what it was. My foot and ankle were very swollen

Cost of plevicto and rising PSA
Who had gotten plevicto and did the insurance cover the treatments, how rough was the side effects. Currently on jvanta but PSA went from 25, 35,31 ant yesterday to 50.1 which is higher that when I started last year with the treatments. The last scan in December of last year showed only the Mets on the

CA27-29 numbers and Covid
Has anyone experienced their CA 27-29 numbers going up due to their having Covid or another of the nasty viruses going around these days? I’ve been sick the past two months. Home test was negative for Covid but we seem to have some viruses that are every bit as bad and my tumor markers crept up to 49

Letrozole
Hi everyone, I just wondered about the side effects of Letrozole. I had 7mm bc removed via lumpectomy, due to have radiotherapy soon, no chemo required. I am really struggling with the possible side effects of this drug. I know we are all individuals but just wondered if side effects are as hideous as

Clinical Trials for Mushrooms
I have been taking mushroom supplements for years based on my own research (with my oncologist's knowledge) and I think it has helped me continue to remain hormone sensitive, though I really can't know.

Prolaris Test Helps ID Higher-risk Patients Who May Safely Skip ADT when receiving radiation for PCa

String-y Mucous problems anyone?
Hello everyone Five years ago I had a trans-hiatal oesophagectomy following an endoscopy which revealed high-grade dysplasia cells. (I was being monitored after chemo/radiotherapy for SCC in my oesophagus in 2015) I elected for surgery rather than take the very real risk that the cells would become

Lancet: Adding Avadart to Active Surveillance significantly statistically improved outcomes. 18% had cancer disappear on follow up ct scans.
"18% of the patients on Avadart on active surveillance the cancer "disappeared". No other drug but Avadart / finasteride can make that claim -- certainly not ADT ... which mutates the cancer to crpc. Avadart has no significant side effects. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0g0m8ATOLaM

I was on Piqray and Fulvestrant for two years with MBC with the Piq mutation. A large percentage of us have it, but not all doctors test. I took it after Ibrance and everolimus/exemestane quit working. I wonder why Piqray isn’t included on the drop down list of treatments on this site. I’ve now
