Well done, Allison. 4 1/2 years is great! I'm aspiring to follow in your footsteps, but got ways to go to get there! David

No change in size over 10 months is a good sign, but I would still not ignore it.

Sorry that news wasn't better, duck, but it will probably confirm your zapping whatever might be left as soon as you and your doc feel you're...

I’m sorry Duck2, my prayers are with you which is about all I can offer. I’m sure someone who has been there and done that will happen along soon....

Day 80 Nothing but good news to report. James is doing really well. He had a check up today and his lab work looked good. We scheduled his 90 day...

You are essentially guaranteed engraftment. And, sooner rather than later. Yes, the chemo effects accumulate quickly, but they will pass soon enough....

Yep I’m gonna feel like crap for a while but fortunately I love healthy foods.

Forget the reasons why. It doesn't make a difference. You've been in your head way too long on this. All that is in play now is your integrity to...

Yes my doctor said no dairy at all. Something about the calcium and magnesium balance feeding cancer. Great advice thank you

Spend any extra time you have on diet changes, not exercise. Your too big to exercise until you get your weight down. It is by far the biggest game...

Thanks point taken. Crash might have been a bit optimistic. We’re focusing right now on the sugar busters plan that’s more or less low carb, low...

Thank you IndyLou! We made some appointments for tomorrow and now we hope for the best.

Thanks Djin. The 2 Gleason 6 biopsied samples were sent for Polaris testing. Unfortunately (or fortunately), there wasn't sufficient tissue for the...

True, AS protocols vary from very strict to what my uro actually called "loosey goosey." It comes down to the probability of falling through the...

K, Sorry to hear things have become unpleasant as far as the side effects go but each day you are closer to the goal and positive thoughts once...

Hello, Mari- I am in the US, and my knowledge is more limited of EU facilities. To be honest, I was referred to my ENT and radiation oncologist by...

Very philosophical and helpful thanks. I deal with the near limitless uncertainty of prostate cancer by trying to understand it. I deal with the...

What denial? What self diagnosis? I’m looking for an explanation for a super large jump in my PSA without explanation in only six months. I’ve...

Hello, gooseberries. First of all, congratulations on recovering from the cancer. Can you tell me a little more about your cancer, its location, and...
