I am 55, dad to a 10 year old boy who lost his mom to brain cancer in Feb 2019. I got diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer in Sept 2019, PSA of 32, then 43, Gleason 9 (4+5) on all 14 samples taken in the biopsy. After 2 months on Lupron and Casodex, PSA down to 2.2 then 0.6. I started Zytiga a week ago. The cancer has spread to my lymph nodes. I also have 4 small spots in my lungs, largest 1 cm, initially they said it was my prostate cancer. Doc said “what else can it be”? My bone scan was negative.
Now they are not sure about my lungs, since they have not reduced or increased in the 2-month CT scan. I am scheduled for a lung biopsy on Jan 8th. Anyone have experience with a needle lung biopsy, a doctor had said it is not too safe as my largest spot in only 1cm and 8cm deep into my chest. Anyone gone through a lung biopsy? If so, please share your experiences.
