Oncologist visit today

Finished visit with oncologist. We are going to monitor PSA every 6 weeks to watch for doubling time. Next meds may be abiraterone and prednisone, but that still remains to be determined.

Like us let's hope those tiny bastards can't have sex and multiply every six weeks or better yet forever. Stay well!!!

Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.

Sounds like your plan is SoC with which my PSA dropped precipitously. Started on fast acting degarelix and it went from 466 to 3.7 in 1 month. Then a shot of Lupron and it dropped to 1.0 in the next month. Now I am <.10. I hope you have the same results!

Ask about Orgvyx and Nubeqa I am having good results and don't require prednisone. My own opinion not a fan of prednisone .

Not what you're looking for?
