Looking for City of Hope prostate oncologist
I was diagnosed with prostate cancer GS 9 in August 2019. Mets were suspected but the scans were not conclusive. I completed ADT, 18 months, and brachy and SBRT. I came off ADT in Jan. 2021. My psa rose to about 0.6 and held steady for four months. In the last three months it has gone from 0.577

stage 4, PSA .8 and psma shows nothing, what to do now?
looking for options on ridding myself of this disease at age 61. Did prostectomy and radiation and ADT so far. No treatment currently and PSMA was clear. Was thinking of going overseas to get Lu-177 since not able to in US. Thoughts?

Zytiga Failed Me Bigtime
I've had a constant problem with rising PSA for the past 18 months. First went on ADT in Sept 2020 when my PSA hit 165, 14 weeks after surgery. After going on Lupron and Erleada my PSA dropped to .20 in 6 months. After that it did nothing but rise back up to 120 about 4 weeks ago. After the Erleada

What Do You Make of This?
https://www.redjournal.org/article/S0360-3016(22)03349-1/fulltext I had a Gleason 4 tumor (2 cm x 1 cm) with a PSA in the 20's. Is this saying that targeted treatment with no or limited ADT would have been sufficient, especially if HDR brachytherapy were used with IMRT?

Rising PSA after salvage radiation
Diagnosed March 2018 (Gleason 7), prostatectomy July 2018. PSA rose to 0.1 by September 2020 which triggered salvage radiation and 6 months ADT. This year PSA began a slow rise from <0.01 to 0.02 to 0.04 and now is 0.06. Wondering if this is worrisome? Also, I changed my atorvastatin dose from 20mg

Transdermal low dose patch Estradiol for ADT S.E.
Use it at all? start using it right away with Casodex/Lupron initial treatment or wait to see if you are having S.E. ? Does primary doc do this or ask RO/MO team?

I am trying to decide if at the end of my ADT treatment in Dec 22 if I need to go on something else or just wait and see if PSA increases.

Antidepressants and ED
I've been on ADT for 4.5 years. Lupron and Zytiga. We all know the sexual health problems with that. I was getting depressed quite badly at times so I started Citalopram a few days ago. It's already helping but I have noticed a bit more ED. Maybe I have to give it some time to see. There are other anti

Vit B12 extremely high
So, I have stage 4 de novo prostate CA. On Lupron, in between 5th & 6th docetaxel chemo. Had to stop abiraterone due to elevated bilirubin & will try restarting after chemo is over. Recently diagnosed with MGUS (Monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance) which is unrelated to the prostate.

Another vacation?
MO wants to take me off ADT after 5 mos PSA down .07 from 3.14 June - October Before the treatment began, the PSA had a 2 mo slope, for the first time. This would be my 3 rd vacation, and beginning of 4th year since 2018 salvage robot prost. I was put on degarelix after 6 mos biological recurrence

Hi, I joined my father this week for his most recent appointment. He is 5 years post diagnosis and his PSA has started to rise after 2.5 years of stability on enzalutamide and before that 6 rounds of doxetaxel + ADT. His recent scans have showed some enlargement of pelvic lymph nodes which is most

2 yr since DX
Today is one of those dates a person remembers but really doesn't want to remember - it was 2 years ago today when my urologist's nurse called me to say "you have mets. I'm sorry". those two small sentences are burned into my memory, i can remember exactly where i was, what direction i was facing,
