Last Pluvicto injection

[hz5flm]

Hubby is very happy to be finished with his 6th injection of Pluvicto tomorrow.The long drive to and from the hospital was so time consuming and tiresome.

What's next? The next psma pet will tell the story....

Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.

Yes psma will tell the story and also get the FDG same time. I hope your MO will work with insurance company for same.

It’s another scan

[hz5flm in reply to God_Loves_Me]

Never heard of it, but will check it out.

I do not see your informations under bio.

Questions -

Have you did chemo (docetaxel ) before pluvicto ?

Have you done PSMA petscan before pluvicto treatment ?

How's your PSA number during pluvicto infusions ?

Thanks for the input. Yes, that chemo drug first and psa went down. Then up after treatment was completed. Psma pet scan done, then qualified for the nuclear treatment of pluvicto. But, for some reason, recent labs show psa on the rise again.

Hmm Pluvicto can cause a temporary surge in PSA. prostatecancer.news/2019/12...

Thanks, feel better about the incline now...
