ADT causes insomnia ?
Dad has been on orgovyx ADT since 3 weeks. Since 3-4 days he complains of not getting proper sleep like earlier. Does ADT cause this ?

Old Guy Update
I was diagnosed in November 2020 with stage 4 Ductal adenocarcinoma of the prostate. I had EBRT and 24 months of ADT which was terminated in October of 2022. My PSA at that time was undetectable and my Testosterone was also undetectable. It’s now July 2024, and my PSA is 0.2 and my Testosterone is 10

PSA at 0.285
I had my RP last January but the cancers had sneaked out to my lymph node already (no other met) so my PSA was always detectable. I started hormonal therapy last April and my PSA went down right away. It had been that way till this week ( PSA was up and down, the lowest was 0.02, usually was 0.05.).

Can I trust a second opinion?
It's not that I don't trust my MO, but he seems to be quite SOC, and doesn't offer options unless I bring them up. Which I have been doing. I even seem to have a reputation for having good questions. Which I am glad to hear, but frankly I don't feel I'm as well educated as all that 🙄. It could be that

The continuing saga of Scout and Coco, Not all change is welcome.
It is with sadness that I report that My "vacation" may come to an abrupt end . After cruising along with an Undetectable PSA for a little over 2+ years, my recent test results indicate a PSA of 0.03 and my Testosterone jumped from <7 to 13. The good news is my T is coming back but it looks like

Gleason 9 prostate cancer
Hello - my husband has aggressive gleason 9 prostate cancer. He had a prostatectomy in August 2015 but his psa remained high, suggesting it had already left the prostate. He then had IMRT to his pelvic area and was started on Zoladex adt (3monthly injections). He became castrate resistant so abiraterone

Elgard v Lupron
I’ve experienced slowly increasing side effects over the past six to nine months. I passed it off to age and time on ADT, but I’ve recently discovered that I was switched from Lupron Depot to Eligard last November. Everything I read says the SEs should be the same. Has anyone else experienced the

Is PSMA PET Scan worth it when PSA<0.2
My MO recommends taking PET CT F18 -DCFPYL in case I want to go intermittent after two years of Lupron and Erleada. My PSA is still less than 0.2. I had one PSMA in March 2022 when PSA was rising to 1.03. Scan show 3 preaortic lymph nodes and two spot on ribs. Then 6 weeks RT and ADT (Lupron, Erleada

Anyone else suffering arm pains in conjunction with ADT hot flashes?
Ever since commencing ADT (Decapeptyl 11.5mg) following recurrent PCa in 2022 I've been getting muscle pain in both arms. It always commences simultaneously with the onset of hot flashes. The pain courses down both arms from the shoulder to the backs of my hands. It's not too severe and each bout only

Good day to all fellow warriors, I used to post as Arnie1970, but that account stopped working. After the initial scare of a stage 4 cancer diagnosis, a lot has happened. Four grand children were born( two boys, two girls). I stopped working, and we traveled a lot. Even though I stopped writing.

After Lupron I have been having seizures
Hi, In December 2023 I decided to finally undergo treatment for my prostate cancer, Gleason scale 6, with a high PSA of 63 (or 48 on another test) I had had this cancer for eight years WITHOUT it spreading. But doctors kept warning (I would almost say harassing) me, so... I underwent one shot of lupron

T never recovered after ADT and 44 EBRT sessions.
I had gleason 7 /3+4. Completed ADT and EBRT (44 sessions) November of 2020. Undetectable psa up until 6 months ago. Then went to 0.1. I had been taking Androgel ( 2 pumps daily) my MO declared that I was " out of remission" and I then stopped the TRT. Since then, I've had two psa tests at 3 month intervals

Patient refuses abiraterone
From a very concerned daughter: My father was prescribed ADT, abiraterone, and prednisone. He started ADT earlier before the other two were added to the regimen, about one month ago. Since then, he has been experiencing a lot of side effects, including serious hot flashes, elevated blood pressure,
