I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you
the three most common prostate problems are inflammation (prostatitis), enlarged prostate (bph, or benign prostatic hyperplasia), and prostate cancer. One change does not lead to another. For example, having prostatitis or an enlarged prostate does not increase your risk of prostate cancer.
Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.

Hi lybrate-user. What was the gleason score on prostate biopsy and what was his psa at begining, if psa is consistently at this level you can continue calutide. Though, we used to prescribe calutide 50 mg once a day after orchidectomy. Did he have metastatic prostate cancer?
# calutide is like a friend which turns into enemy later on. So, calutide is stopped if psa starts rising again. You do not need to stop calutide at present. Calutide initially works against cancer and then works with ca...more

Ca colon was detected during colostomy surgery because of obstruction in intestines was done on 28/09/2020 and water confirmed by biopsy at sri balaji action medical institute, paschim vihar, new delhi 110063. Close/reversal stone surgery was also advised after successful 6 chemotherapy sessions. Second opinion was taken at all india institute of medical sciences, new delhi (dr. B. R ambedkar irch ). After investigations, ca colon was confirmed and chemotherapy was started at aiims. Total 4 chemotherapy sessions were performed. Last chemotherapy session, was done on 21/01/2021 at aiims. Later because of accidental fall and one month period was needed for surgery after chemotherapy, treatment was disrupted. Bipolar hemi artho plastic surgery was performed on 24/02/2021 at aiims. Currently under treatment at day care chemotherapy center and follow up at irch, aiims. Current pet scan indicated" no significant metabolically active disease noted at present. Possible recurrence may happen has been advised on follow up visit. Consultations are being carried out by team of doctors at aiims for further treatment/advise. My query at present is that now since chemotherapy is over, can close/reversal surgery can be performed. Second query is whether surgery is immediately advised now or preferably can wait, if possible, because I am not able to independently sit or stand on my own. Chemotherapy sessions are on. I feel colostomy bags are convenient at this time rather than sitting on commode seat and would like to wait for close/reversal surgery. What is advisable period of gap between initial colostomy surgery and close/reversal surgery? Please advise?

Hi dear lybrate-user, I went through your query and concerns with your colostomy.
You focus on the overall general condition improvement in view of the current chemo sessions.
As your colostomy is functioning ok, no need to hurry on surgical reversal, so as to avoid risking and compromising on your general condition
after that consult your aiims doctors so as to plan the colostostomy reversal at opportune time.
Do call back for any more query.

There is a term Dhatu Kshay that pertains to immunity compromise by excess semen loss. Once immunity is compromised you are prone to contraction of any disease. So increase your Oj Bala or vyadhikshmatv or immunology by fresh food intake, exercise, pranayam, meditation and use of herbs. Avoid excess masturbation.
