Why has my PSA declined dramatically since Xtandi failed?
Now, the only cancer meds I’m taking are
Lupron
and prednisone. Any thoughts on what accounts for my huge drop in PSA and reversing weight loss and actually adding back some lost pounds?

My father has extreme pain in his legs
He is currently taking zytiga/prednisone and
Lupron
shots. I feel like this extreme leg pain started with those meds. He is taking OxyContin 10 mg 2x a day and oxycodine 5mg in between no more than 3 a day he is allowed. He said the only thing that helps is Aleeve but dr told him to stop taking it.

Yesterday's 2 month PSA reads vs Sept 18th. A 0.051ng/mL Delta increase. Should I be concerned?? Seee my newest Med/Onc this Friday.
I sent my newest Med/Onc a msg with some of my ADT (Abiraterone 250mg,
Lupron
(Eligard), prednisone 5mg 2X/day) He evidently did not see them as positive and ordered me; 1) CT scan abs/pelvis/chest 2) NM technicium bone scan and new set of labs, including TSH(thryoid).

Soreness from lupron
I’m going Thursday for my 6 month
lupron
shot in my lower back/upper butt, and I’m usually real sore for about 5 days. Any suggestions to ease soreness? I run and lift 3-4 times a week, but I take off a week after the shot.

HCG for Testosterone Recovery after ADT
Now, after letting me off
Lupron
/Eligard a year early, a urologist in the same center (Johns Hopkins) who is helping me with nocturnal frequency suggests HCG to assist with T recovery. He says my time to that can be substantially reduced.

Why continue Lupron if failing?
I am soon to start a secondary ADT drug now that
Lupron
is failing after 3 years. The plan is to also continue the
Lupron
. Why is this if it is failing? My MO says just that this has been done historically. I have done well with
Lupron
, but would not side effects likely be fewer if it was stopped?

High Blood Pressure anyone?
I've been on Bicalutamide and
Lupron
since December 2019, recently completed 9 sessions of Docetaxel and today will be my 10th Radio session. At my Nursing check four days ago, I discovered that my BP was 163/100. I have since been monitoring it and has remained around that pressure, even at home.

Lupron
"my" oncologist informed me today, that
Lupron
is currently on back order and may not be available for up to 1 year. i have been advised the next injection could be Zoladex, instead. looking into Zolodex, per AstraZeneca website: https://www.zoladex.com/breast-cancer/

My husband's experience with Xtandi
At the first of this year his PSA started rising on
Lupron
+ Casodex. In April he was put on Abiraterone + Prednisone, and after three months of continued rising PSA the doc switched him to Xtandi + Prednisone. The abiraterone was not so good--lots of fatigue--but the Xtandi was TERRIBLE.

Some good news for me.
I previously had chemo in 2016 and since then been using
Lupron
and Zytiga as my regular regime. I was please to see my Blood tests come back today with a PSA down to 0.1. The last time it was this low was 2017. My original PSA when diagnosed was 212.
