with lesser hot flushes.

Still here today
Lupron
, chemotherapy, and Zytiga. Started the treatment in March 2022. In August my PSA was undetectable. I'm still taking Zytiga and
Lupron
and my oncologist started me on Xgeva. Just saw my oncologist on Dec. 27th and my PSA is still undetectable. So far, so good.

ADT relief
On a 1 - 10 scale the aches and pains have been magnified 3 - 6X of what they were pre-
Lupron
. It seems like my low back aches have been consistent 2x-plus since the
Lupron
Any suggestions on ache and pain relief from adt? Does glucosamine help the joints? Tumeric for the muscles?

Xofigo experience and thoughts requested
Gleason 9, PSA is 17 and trending upward, after 8 years on
Lupron
post PR and one year on Xtandi. I'd be interested in hearing about the experience of those who've done the Xofigo treatment as well as thoughts about the timing.

Looking for suggestion of clinical trials for mCRPC
I have had SBRT (2007), Chemotherapy (2010/2011), ADT using Casodex/
Lupron
/Zytiga (2012-Current). Interested in joining trials that involve PARP inihibitors, immunotherapy, or other new/novel therapies. Can any of you suggest trials currently accepting candidates.

Husband’s testosterone is extremely low. Anyone with helpful ideas?
My husband has lived with PC for around 14 years & has been on
lupron
injections since. 250 mg Zytiga & 5 mg prednisone were added 3 years ago. & despite usual hot flashes, fatigue, blood pressure ups & downs, did well. The last 6 months he has been extremely fatigued, shaky, lightheaded.

Starting relugolix / Orgovyx
My healthcare provider indicated they wouldn't prescribe Orgovyx and to use
Lupron
instead. Has anyone dealt with this? Are there ways to get the meds cheaper from Canada or elsewhere? Any insight would be great.

Single positive lymph node - experiences?
He had told me several years ago that if we could find one or two positive lymph nodes that perhaps we could spot radiate and postpone HT for a bit longer (I am not eager to go on
Lupron
). At the time, no evidence and so abandoned that idea.

waiting but anxious
Took a 6 month shot of
lupron
. Discontinued
lupron
. Too many side affects. I have not had a detectable psa score since surgery. Contrary to the advice to have radiation targeted to the area of extraction, I am waiting it out. Getting psa checks every 3 months.

Ginseng and daytime brain fog (aka sleepiness) for those on Lupron + Abi + Prednisone
For some months getting gradually worse I've been having intense sleepiness when sitting and trying to read, watch TV, etc. What is the community's experience with Korean Panax Ginseng? It is working well for me today (the first day I started taking it.) Thanks
