Anxiety after coming off Enzalutamide

I’ve been of Enza for nine days preparing for my switch to Abiraterone/Prednisone an the start of my Prostar trial. The past four days have caused me great anxiety. Anyone experienced the same post-Enzalutamide. Any/all Help appreciated.

Also I’ve continued to take Bupropion for depression brought on by Enza. Could that be it?

Why the switch? Did xtandi stop working? Or bad side effects?

Then I would have no fear of zytiga. I have been on both. Got the same amount of time from each.I realize everyone is different, but don't stress over something that has not happened.

just got my genetics test results: variants of unknown significance identified in ATM MSH2 MSH6. Guess it has no impact on my treatment. Waiting to hear from my onco.
