I have been on Lupton since October 2017 3 months on and off for approximately a year or until psa gets back to 10. My petscan was done at the same time with undetectable cancer.

Seems like you are practicing Intermittent ADT. There is ample evidence that Intermittent ADT is non-inferior than continuous ADT.

Intermittent ADT is less likely to cause heart problems, Diabetes and weakening of bones.

However, Not every one with mPCa is a suitable candidate for Intermittent ADT...one should get careful evaluation about how aggressive cancer is and how low was Nadir PSA and Nadir T.

PSA of 100 is a warning signal. Which PET scan did you have (Axium or FDG)?

[Clhammy in reply to Tall_Allen]

I believe it was the axium. Yes I agree that 100 is definitely a warning signal my radiologist oncologist seamed to think it was ok.

[Tall_Allen in reply to Clhammy]

Maybe get an FDG PET scan?

Tall_Allen: Please correct me if I'm wrong, but "3 mos on and off" is not an IADT protocol. IADT means achieving a PSA nadir, then stopping ADT, allowing T to rise, and resuming ADT only when the PSA hits a certain number, of the PSADT is under a certain number of mos.
