PSA dropping, yet testosterone rising on Lupron/Zytiga??
I got my first Lupron shot on 5/25/20 and started the
Zytiga
on 7/3/20. I'm an original Gleason 8 PSA 50 with extracapsular extension. Now with 4 bone mets about 3 years after HDR Brachy, IMRT, and 8 months of ADT.

If PSA is undetectable for over 2 years?
So, why continue quarterly Lupron shots and daily Abiraterone Acetate (
Zytiga
) with Prednisone? Why my Dana-Farber Oncologist keeps kicking the can (cancer) down the road, should I expect more for quality of life consideration?

Urinary leakage before radiation
Hi everyone , I am in doubt if I should start radiation in November as I had my RP in March, currently on ADT,Lupron,
Zytiga
and still experience leakage (1.5, 2 pads a day) .I do a lot of Kegel but I am worried to go into IMRT and get worse or stay like this for good.

Return of spinal soft tissue Mets. What to do?
I have been on
Zytiga
for 32 months. PSA went from 76 to < 0.008 after diagnosis Nov 2017 but then up to 0.06 in the last 3 months. CT followed by last week MRI has confirmed return of soft tissue Mets to T , C and L spine even with basically non detectable PSA.

Xtandi Dosage
On Lupron since 10/19 and a 6 month stint cut short on
Zytiga
with very minor side effects. Now on Xtandi for 3 weeks and much more brain fog, lack of concentration, hot flashes, fatigue and emotional ups and downs. I noticed similar side effects previously but now seem much more pronounced.

PSA rising .01 - .08 in 6 months
Onco told me last month that , If in 2 more months my PSA still continues upward, even the small .01 a month, I will stop
Zytiga
and start Xtandi. I just went to Onco last week to get my shots and he said that YES I will go on Xtandi next month.

Anyone here taking Lynparza and/or Zytiga and struggling to pay for it?
Anyone here taking Lynparza and/or
Zytiga
and struggling to pay for it? Please PM me. I have 1 bottle of each that I'd hate to have to just throw away, per the advice of the hospital where it came from - simply because they cannot take it back.

Starting Zytiga after Xtandi failed
Has anyone had any success going on to
Zytiga
after Xatandi? I was on Xtandi for 4 months and it did not work from day 1 . Oncologolist wants to try
Zytiga
now. Concerned they are just wasting time.

Xtandi failed suggested Zytiga
My urologist called me and stated that the radium was waste of time and I should do the
Zytiga
because he felt if worked I would have better results. Can anyone give some input if the radium treatments are a waste of time as he put it?

Anyone eating breakfast with Zytiga?
Hi, all --
Zytiga
stopped working for me, and we decided to try it with food. The research shows good results for about 30% of patients. We consulted with Dr. Anderson at Duke, one of the researchers, and he suggested something low-fat (that is, not bacon).

PSA question
Started Lupron in March and
Zytiga
in May of 2019. I've seen a steady PSA decrease over the last year, however my last 3 PSA readings have held relatively steady at 3.68, 2.84 and 2.74. Can I assume that I have reached my nadir?
