I had three Jevtana infusions.

I have a CT scan scheduled for next Saturday. I feel really good, compared to the time when I finished Taxotere, Pelvic radiation and Xtandi, which was killing me and I had to stop. Is there any sign to tell that things are working?

PSA is usually your best indicator.

I just got done with 13 rounds of Jevtana. It kept my PSA since last May stable. My PSA fell to 1.90 from 2.76 I have never been above 3 the past 9 years, with all the different treatments. Next up Pluvicto beginning March 1st.

Although I have not heard of this drug, I am happy that you are feeling better, and pray that your CT scan is good news.

My father has had his 2nd shot of the SPLASH series, and 5 days of pelvic radiation.

Was very weak, tired and nauseous, but the pain and nausea have significantly subsided with medical marijuana gummies.

He naps regularly, and his mood and appetite are much better a week later.

How long did you have your treatments, and what exactly made you decide to switch. Were they slowing the cancer growth? Could you not tolerate the treament, so thats why you switched. Always thinking of "what's next"... but, also being present for every minute with my dad that is good.

Can you tell me more about Jevtana infusions?

Blessings,

Dawn
