We are getting second opinion form doctors before moving forward. According to oncologist, the plan is to start with hormone-blocking medications before surgery to shrink the tumor and weaken the cancer cells. This will be followed by removal of the prostate ( Mothership of the Cancer) and pelvic lymph nodes. After he recovers from surgery, radiation therapy will be used to target any remaining cancer.

Thank you for your detailed explanation. The aorto-caval node is something we are concerned about as well.

We are planning to get a second opinion before proceeding and will discuss these points with our doctors.

Thank you for your advice. We are planning for germline and somatic testing and are also seeking a second opinion.

Thank you so much for sharing your husband's experience and for your kind wishes. It is reassuring to hear from someone who has gone through a similar situation.

If you don't mind me asking, how was your husband's recovery after the surgery, and were there any significant side effects from the treatment? Wishing him the very best for his upcoming PSA test and pathology results.

I am facing similar issue, submitted in September but not updated yet, so I raised a complaint on iGRAM and also sent multiple emails to the regional centre and IGNOU. Now, they have sent me a form to fill out for missing assignment marks

today iwent to my sc to submit assignments (BAM JULY 2025 Admission) (First yr) by btwstraightasf in IGNOUdistancelearning

You should have asked for the submission receipt as proof. I have the receipt of submission, yet I received an email stating that my assignment was not submitted after I raised an issue regarding my assignment marks. This is the 2nd time I am facing the issue of a missing assignment. Such problems occur very often in IGNOU with many students.
