Positive medical check update April 2024
Last days I’ve had couple of blood tests, ultra sound, annual PSMA Pet/CT and a meeting with my urologist. My last Lupron shot was Oct 2023. Blood values are all very ok, PSA undetectable, Testo less 0.1 ng/ML and PSMA Pet/CT and ultra sound clean, no recurrence, no metastases. I’m more than thankful

Muscle loss
I'm sure this is a beaten horse topic, but I am unable to perform my previous weight training insofar as weight and stamina. I'm on eligard every 3 months and nightly erleada pill. Can I incorporate creatine monohydrate without effecting my PSA or exacerbating my BPH? I'm Stage 4, Gleason 9, mets to

Initial Phase 1 Data on MB-105 for Patients with PSCA-positive Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer
From what I understand PSCA is highly expressed in prostate cancer cells but also in other kinds of cancer and also in other tissues (in small amounts), and its production increases as the disease progresses, making it a better target for later stages (but this is my speculation!). What is important

Eligard
My PSA keep rising. Today, PSA went up to 2.25.1 from 1.1 (March). Doctor told me that he never had a patient Eligard does not work at all at the beginning. He asked me to go thru with PSMA scan and start to take Xtandi. He said there is a possibility I may also go thru with a testicle removal surgery

Enlarged Lymph Nodes on MRI and CT
Hello, new to this. Never posted before, hoping for some insight. Gleason 7 (4+3) PSA 6. Bone scan clear but lymphadenopathy in groin nodes (inguinal; iliac nodes). Does this mean spread? Being sent for a PET Scan Friday.

Tripple therapy - ADT+Lynparza+Xtandi
I just started Lynparza in addition to Xtandi and Loupron. I don’t have a BRCA mutation, but I was told that Lynparza may be beneficial regardless. I finished cycle of Jevtana (7 infusions) and Xtandi. My PSA was 0.74, but now it has increased to 2.3. All other tretments and history are in my bio. The

3 Abiraterone tabs in place of 4.
Warriors Some time back I posted that my MO had told me to take 3 Abiraterone tablets with 5 mg Prednisone daily instead of 4 to help with an out of control Blood Pressure problem. I was worried (as were some of the responses) that this could impact the ADT therapy. Recently had blood work done

If PSA is Suppressed by Doublet ADT, Will Salvage IMRT Cause a PSA Rise?
Hello everyone, My husband is nearing completion of his extended pelvic salvage IMRT with boost to retrocaval lymph nodes. His radiation oncologist said it may take several months before the psa calms down, so he would like to see him in July. My question is that, since he is already undetectable due

Starting Third Month of Orgovyx--Update
Blood test after two months shows PSA of 1.45, down from 16.5--over a 90% drop. So, the medication is working as advertised. I believe their own stats indicate an approx. 98% drop in 90 days. This week's visit with my new MO nurse practitioner went well. She was very happy with the PSA results and

Timing of Docetaxel

10-year update still shows no benefit to ART vs early SRT
ART
= adjuvant radiation therapy, within 6 months after radical prostatectomy (RP)
early SRT
= salvage radiation therapy, after PSA ≥ 0.1ng/ml or 3 consecutive rises. Median was 0.2 ng/ml. Median 1 ½ years after RP. Patients risked nothing by waiting, and gained urinary and fecal continence

PSMA PET/CT from the skull base to midthigh demonstrates: 1. Worsening of skeletal metastases. 2. Multiple sclerotic lesions without activity represent treated metastatic disease. 3. Status post orchiectomy. 4. No abnormal uptake of tracer within the prostatic bed. EXAM: PET CT PSMA CLINICAL

Docetaxel Failing
Greetings from Inverness in the beautiful Highlands of Scotland! I would like to share my journey with you and hopefully get some advice on future treatments. In December 2022 following diagnoses of advanced prostate cancer with multiple bone metastasis I started zytiga + prednisone and 6 monthly triptorelin

Moving on to Provenge/Sipuleucel-t
We met with my husband's onc yesterday to discuss the next move since the 3 years of Abiraraterone/prednisone has run its course. His psa numbers are now around 2.0 (up from a low of .04) and psma scan indicates that bone met volume is quite low. A recent lab biopsy didn't reveal much... The good doc
