A year after my six rounds of docetaxel, I had two small mets in my spinal column while on ADT with eligard and then degarelix. It sounds like you had the mets before your docetaxel, which I did not, I had them after the chemo treatment. Hope this is helpful.

Yes il had mets before my chemo

I believe so and my Research Professor Medical Oncologist believed so also. Based on nuclear bone scans, I have had 27, metastatic lesions were resolved and replaced by new bone growth in my spine. I’m fact, each scan which was pointed out to me reflected this fact

I underwent, as initial treatment for Stage 4, a clinical trial of chemotherapy with ADT for six months in 2004 I have previously posted the trial.

Diseased bone once resolved is simply amazing it will regenerate with new growth. I wish you the best in in fighting this terrible disease
