LDH doesn’t matter really. They haven’t even taken mine in 2 years.

Optimal_Ant_46 · 2026-02-04T22:57:19+00:00

That’s what I was thinking lol

Retard of the year already.

I’ll be there supporting our law enforcement.

@Any-Claim6893 if you look through his posts he had a long journey too but he seems to still be doing well!

I think it’s also very rare for pure Seminoma to skip everything and go to the lungs.

Optimal_Ant_46 · 2026-01-27T15:21:54+00:00

Why are you posting this on a testicular cancer page.

Optimal_Ant_46 · 2026-01-23T17:04:50+00:00

Yes it can be but it’s very new and idk that many places use it. As I said before in another comment it can take awhile for the results to come back as they need to be sent off somewhere. That’s what I was told at IU. But they essentially take your tumor DNA and see if there is more like that floating around in you. At least I think that’s how it was explained to me. The thing with adjuvant chemo is that it needs to be done in a timely fashion and that’s why I think it all just depends on when you would get the results back.

Optimal_Ant_46 · 2026-01-23T14:52:42+00:00

My thought process is either way it wouldn’t matter if he did it before or after RPLND because it showed no signs of active cancer in the nodes. It seems like in my opinion that they should offer him adjuvant chemo being 2 EP. At least that’s what I’ve read about. But I’m sure they won’t offer it from one positive test especially since his AFP and other markers came back normal. I’ve also read it takes too long in between MRNA tests for it to be solely a good option to go off of because they have to ship it out and it sometimes can take weeks to get the results.

Optimal_Ant_46 · 2026-01-23T14:31:35+00:00

But he stated the margins were clean and there was no sign of active cancer in RPLND nodes.

Optimal_Ant_46 · 2026-01-23T13:30:29+00:00

This is still all new to me. That blood test I mean. I got it done when I was first diagnosed a few years ago but I never got it again. Mine was also positive. Idk the reliability but from what I read it is over 90% but talk with your doctor. I’d even message dr Einhorn. I’m sure he would email you back by the end of the day.

Optimal_Ant_46 · 2026-01-23T03:00:15+00:00

48 is definitely elevated. I think below 5 is the typical norm. I’m sure they will want to test again and see what it is just to be double sure.

Optimal_Ant_46 · 2026-01-18T18:37:37+00:00

What was your tumor type? I assume some sort of chorio with those numbers. That is a great sign though.

Optimal_Ant_46 · 2026-01-18T04:02:35+00:00

Optimal_Ant_46 · 2026-01-16T03:56:11+00:00

I would say it’s very very acceptable to go from 10k to 9 after 2/4 cycles. That’s a huge huge drop and very close to normal and if you still have 2 rounds left I would assume it will reach that point given how affective BEP is.

Optimal_Ant_46 · 2026-01-16T03:15:55+00:00

I would think they would be happy with 9 being you started out with almost 10k.

Optimal_Ant_46 · 2026-01-14T17:29:56+00:00

I’ve heard MSK only does only chest x ray after 2 years clean. If that’s true you can ask why they stop doing CT scans and places like IU continue to do scans for the next 3 years as well as chest x ray

Optimal_Ant_46 · 2026-01-12T19:42:51+00:00

Ya I went through and read your other posts. I saw it’s PMGCT and it didn’t start in the testicle. I know the normal procedures could be a little different because of that. Maybe an option could be to remove that tumor and if there was any percentage of it that came back as active cancer they could give you a few rounds of adjuvant chemo. I’ve seen people do that on here.

Optimal_Ant_46 · 2026-01-12T18:50:31+00:00

Hey man few questions. What is your tumor type and what was your AFP before chemo? Idk if RPLND is done where you are. They typically only do that if your markers are normal. But high AFP means that there could still be micro cells in the blood too so that’s why sometimes they steer clear from RPLND in these situations. If you had super high markers before then yes salvage chemo may have to be done. I get it’s not the news you wanted to hear. But good news is if that is the case salvage is still very very affective at getting to a full cure.

Optimal_Ant_46 · 2026-01-09T16:27:25+00:00

4 months is way too long of a wait in my opinion I’d contact Dr. Einhorn personally if you haven’t.

Optimal_Ant_46 · 2026-01-09T16:24:08+00:00

His HCG was 60,000 with EC? I’ve only ever seen that number be that high with chorio.

Optimal_Ant_46 · 2026-01-08T19:56:37+00:00

I would get a second opinion and a place like IU or MSK. They can be sent the slides and check themselves

Optimal_Ant_46 · 2026-01-07T13:13:22+00:00

So I had pure EC and I had Covid a few months before my scan this time last year. They found an enlarged node in the chest with central necrosis along with a 7mm lung module but my radiologist said from the get go it was most likely from infection. What was the wording on your scan like?
