Does anyone have a suggestion for joint pain? My husband has had prostate removed 2017, on Xtandi for 15 months, then Chemo, now on his 2nd cycle out of 6 of Radium 223. He has about once a week, severe joint pain in his knee. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Tall Allen, look forward to hearing from you.
Concerned wife.

I was on Lupron and bicalutamide with bad joint pain. Went on Lupron vacation all joints except for one knee became normal. That knee is arthritic by X-ray. Did a bone density test. t score a bit low for my age average. Steroid injection doesn’t work for entire 3 month period. Artificial knee or other treatment on hold until bone density improves Currently using vitamins with bicalutamide monotherapy.
I have a hip that needs replacing but can't because my cancer is there. I was walking with a cane. Neuropathy in that leg. Doc prescribed gabapentin for the neuropathy which worked. Also prescribed diclofenac /misoprostol combo and that took care of that (mostly). Don't use a cane and can walk the dog again.
