Been on ZYTIGA now for 6 months, PSA 1.9, so anyone else on the same drug and any thing that may help, have a nice day.

My husbands PSA was nearly 1000 when found in March 2018. Had an orchiectomy immediately, did 3 rounds of Chemo(Taxotere), which he didn’t tolerate well, then switched to Zytiga inJune, PSA is .5 now. He’s had virtually no side effects from Zytiga.

My PSA now at 1.5, that is still great as my ZYTIGA has been cut to half strength because of problem with liver function, but now on the way back to normal have a nice day everyone.
