Welcome! Please Introduce Yourself.

I was diagnosed with prostate cancer at the age of 66 in 2012, I am now a cancer survivor thanks to having my yearly PSA testing done. It was the test that showed that my PSA had increased dramatically in one year. The test helped me to prevent my cancer from spreading to other parts of my body. My oncologist had me do a series of other tests to determine that my cancer was only in my prostate. It was only in my prostate and a Gleason score of 7 was given. I had to have my prostate removed, which probably save my life. I been cancer free going on 14+ years!

Hi I was diagnosed last July with Metastatic stage 4 colon cancer that traveled to the liver and lungs!
My numbers have moved from over 500 down to 12.3

In October 2022, I was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma. It was an extremely rough journey the first 6 months, as the Revlimid and Velcade gave me diarrhea so bad that I lost 60+ pounds and my weight got down to 93 pounds. It took about a year to get my weight up to 110 pounds. (as I stopped the Revlimid in July 2023 and started taking Darzalex FasPro. I was not a good candidate for the Stem Cell Transplant as I was over 70 years old and very frail. Thanking God that the Darzalex has been keeping me in remission for almost 3 years. I had my annual PET scan this past month, and there wasn't any sign of the Multiple Myeloma, although something showed up in my cervix area. I had a biopsy and ultrasound done, and found out yesterday that I have High-grade endometrial carcinoma. I was not prepared for this news. I'm hoping to seer the surgeon next week to schedule the surgery. I don't know what to expect, as I'm hoping to hear from other women who have had uterine cancer.

I am a prostate cancer survivor going on 13+ years, I was diagnosed December 2012 with Gleason score of 7. I had discovered my cancer thru my PSA testing, which showed it had gone way up in less than 6 months. I had a 12 core biopsy done which showed I had cancer in both lobes of my prostate. I had to receive additional tests to determine if my cancer had spread beyond my prostate. this require a blood test, bone scans, x-rays and MRI. It was determined that my cancer had not spread and that my best option at the time was complete removal of my prostate. I had robotic surgery performed and the recovery was about 2 weeks. The only thing I did not like was that it left me with erectile disfunction to this day. But I'm very great full that I'm cancer free. I have to say if I had not done my PSA testing, I would have cancer!
