PSA Undetectable

My oncologist changed my hormonal therapy drug from lupron to eligard due to vendor change at Smilow Cancer Trumbull. I had my first shot on August 19th without any problems! When I first saw the Oncologist he told me that my PSA was <.1ng/ml! And all my other blood tests were very good too! I will maintain the positive attitude and my exercise program! I was diagnosed with prostate cancer on January 7,2005. It has been a very long journey but I am winning the battle so far!

Glad that you are doing well all things considered. You need not worry about the drug change, it should bot cause any problems.
