Prostate cancer or infection stage 4
Hello Doctor, my grandfather (Nanu) has Stage 4 prostate cancer and we are from Alwar, Rajasthan. He has severe pain from lower back/waist area to knees. Earlier, his testicles were surgically removed and currently he is on chemotherapy medicines. It has been 5 days since medicines started and he is gradually becoming weaker. Now he is finding it difficult to walk properly and we are very concerned. Could you please guide whether this is expected or urgent? Also, if needed, could you recommend a good specialist near "Jaipur", Delhi, or nearby areas? Could you please guide us regarding what kind of diet/food he should take during this time? Also, are there any foods we should avoid?
Advice for non small lung cancer - sqcc
Hello Doctor, Seeking your opinion regarding a 71-year-old patient diagnosed with NSCLC favor squamous cell carcinoma (P40 diffuse positive, TTF1 negative) involving the right upper lobe. PET-CT shows a spiculated RUL lesion approx. 3.0 × 4.7 × 4.0 cm with SUV max 16.58. Mildly FDG-avid hilar/paratracheal nodes (SUV ~4.2) with some calcification noted. EBUS/TBNA from stations 4R, 7 and 11L showed no evidence of malignancy. Current staging documented as cT2bN1M0 (Stage IIB). Proposed plan is neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by reassessment for surgery. Would appreciate guidance on: 1. Whether chemo + surgery appears the optimal curative-intent approach in this case. 2. Whether adding immunotherapy to neoadjuvant chemotherapy would significantly improve outcomes. 3. Whether current imaging/EBUS findings sufficiently support N1 staging or need further nodal evaluation. Thank you.

Cancer screening
I see now a days that many people after 60 years are diagnosed with cancer . The thing is, it is diagnosed in the last stage. Is there a test that we can perform every 6 months that can point out early stage cancer any where in the body?.
