Taking Zytiga Prednisone. I’ve been offered Monoclonal infusion. Wondering if anyone has any experience. Or anything else that works or doesn’t work. Thanks

I hope it works. ADT may actually help:

Monoclonal antibodies work great for most people. The anti-virals they’ve used for covid have been iffy, and made allot of people worse, including death. Ivermectin worked well on the original and delta variant because it is anti inflammatory anti viral and anti parasitic. The new covid strains don’t impact the lungs, so the anti inflammatory effect is not as important in these weaker variants. Make sure you know what variant it is because it might be an older, stronger variant, or just something your body doesn’t respond too well. I do know two people that recovered quickly from using monoclonal antibodies, and they were both fat. I would avoid paxlovid or remdesivir from the bad outcomes i witnessed.

I agree with what nalakrats said. Dr. Mobeen Syed and Dr Pierre Kory have great videos detailing proven results using a combination of treatments. Acting early saves lives and reduces long covid chances.

They couldn't get an emergency use authorization if they admitted there were drugs already available that were effective at treating the virus. It's all about the $ this regime is in so deep with Big Pharma and the CCP, We may NEVER return to the America we grew up in.

True Tommy, you are one of the informed. It’s very sad what has been done to America during the past two years. WHO and CDC NIH corruption and propaganda lies, along with a $20+ trillion infusion from the fed reserve and treasury dept through money printing, margin, and irresponsible incentives that caused bubbles and caused a much greater divide between the wealthy and poor, allthewhile, telling lies, trying to convince the poor that the government is taking care of them. Very sad and horrendously destructive. I won’t even get into the totalitarian overreach in America and throughout many countries around the world.

Stage 4 since 2016, Xtandi since 12 of 2016, Had the Pfizer shot and one booster, got Covid from a great grandson 🤪🤪. Doctor sent me to get the infusion. While others had more intense problems from the Covid ,I had very little problems. Really not much more than a cold. Hope this helps

Completed Casodex 6 months April 12. Had two Moderna and two boosters. Got COVID April 20. Doctor sent me for new Eli Lily infusion effective against Omicron. Symptoms disappeared in 24 hours. No side effects from infusion.

I had Covid this past January. URI symptoms so I tested and was positive. I am on Zytiga/Prednisone and have extensive pleural disease so my oncologist recommended Monoclonal Antibodies. Had a tough time finding them but I got the infusion and my mild symptoms cleared immediately. Could be anecdotal since I wasn't very sick. I have now had the second booster and happily wear a mask in crowds and on all public transportation. Recently attended an Opera at the Met in NYC. 6000 people and all wore masks and happily showed proof of vaccination.

Bicalutamide and other lutamides might work. ADT apparently helps. Estrogen might help (the government is overseeing several clinical trials).

Words always fail at times like this. Remember all the good things. I think we're all old enough to have lost someone. Sounds trite but time really does heal all wounds.

It sounds as though you're asking about a prophylactic mAb? My husband has CLL (zero immune system because CLL is a B-call cancer) from RT for PCa. He received Evusheld, 2 injections, total of 300 mg of tixagevimab co-packaged with cilgavimab, two injections, on March 31. So far so good. No side effects. It's supposed to be a long-lasting prophylactic mAb - as in 6 months. For CLL, it's not lasting quite that long, but it is turning out to be effective in the CLL population. He is Medicare, paid nothing for it.

Great for your gym! My wife wasn't so lucky. Covid recently tore through her workplace. My wife was sick for 10 days and still has memory issues. Needless to say, many of the employees are looking for other jobs. Almost every friend I have has had covid at least once.

We've been wondering why I haven't gotten it. Perhaps that is partly due to ADT, bicalutamide, estrogen, and of course vaccinations (possibly retard PCa progression and, if so, sign me up for the PCa vaccine).

I had sniffles last year. I thought it was allergies but maybe it was covid.

That is so awesome, I wish more people "Just Said No" to the Covid Gestapo. We're in the pickle we're in today because not enough people told the G men to F**k Off

I love Dennis Prager
