A Little Joke

I saw an ad on Facebook today for a drug called “Saxenda”. I don’t know what it does. Got me thinking that ADT could be called “Sexenda”!

I REALLY hate that term. It is emasculating. When are we going to be called eunuchs?

cancerfox in reply to MJCA

Probably never. Our situation is temporary, while a eunuch's is permanent. At least I'm hoping ours is temporary since I'm going off ADT and am hoping for the best. 🤞

FIRST thing for ME was a bilateral Orchiectomy and I'm happy/proud to be a Unique Eunuch. The pathology report on my *BOYS* had a note from the Pathologist stating --- "I can now confirm that 10 pounds of balls can indeed fit in a 5 pound sack."

👍😂😁 After this lousy ATD in my case it would be .25# in a .5# sack.

I have had this bitch for 16 years. On my 4th or 5th round of Lupron. Now with Erleada!! It’s Firm-A-Gone!

Wow, 16 years, you're a real veteran! I'm just a rookie, and I'm already tired of this crap after just one year. But I guess it's better than the alternative. 😃

Eunuch? I wish I was a dwarf. Hollywood here I come. (That pun is so good, I would pat myself on the back, if my arms weren't so short.)

Firmagon - the first time I heard that name I did a double take: " Really? That's the name of the drug? What kind of twisted sadist came up with that? "

I can pretty much laugh about it but... really!

Omg I never realized that

in reply to subliminaldood

'Warfarin' is my favorite. WTH? Glad I don't have to take it. But seriously, who came up with that name?

It’s cruelly perfect. It’s T we’re missing, so if only you could add a T to the drug it would be sexTenda.

Not to be.

No extenda, instead it’s the enda!

Had my two Firmagon ‘loading’ doses a couple of weeks ago and yup, I can confirm that Firmagon has disallowed any firmness anywhere, either seen or felt. Sort of like Bugbegon. Can imagine that the boys and girls who sit around the pharmaceutical conference room tables and choose drug names have had a few laughs.

MJCA in reply to MGBman

Guess they could rename the drug Firmagone!!

Yup

If the good pharma folks really wanted to get inventive they could retitle Firmagon to Firmagonforever.
