how statins slow growth of prostate
Cedars-Sinai Cancer investigators have found that lowering blood cholesterol enhances the action of immune cells, slowing the growth of prostate cancer. (Clinical Cancer Research: https://doi.org/10.1158/1078-Q434.ccr-21-1535). It provides a rationale for large-scale clinical testing of using cholesterol

PSMA scan result
I have been diagnosed with mCSPC in May 2023 and been on Lupron for 3 months and Zytiga/ Pre since last 2 months. My PSA was initially 21.5 and as of last week is down to 0.3. I had my PSMA scan done again today and was hoping that some lesions in regional and distant Lymph nodes would be gone but

My Pluvicto Journey is Over
I finished treatment #5 on August 10th with a PSA of over 400. But worse than that was what it did to my hemoglobin and Platelet counts. Last week my hemoglobin was down to 6.2 and after 2 units of blood it only rose to 7.8. Platelet counts drooped to 18k. I had a transfusion for both the platelets

PSA for PCa Awareness month
There's an App called Nextdoor and they're pretty much in all the cities, even this lil town. I posted on it for men to get screened as a Public Service Announcement for PCa Awareness Month. Many don't know that it's in September, but a whole lot more know that October is Breast Ca Awareness month.

Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy
Have contra-indications from multi-parametric MRI (4/2023) and latest serum PSA (4.4 ng/ml, 9% free PSA). SO recommends retest and another MRI in 6 months. Verifying that prev MRI did not include spectroscopy. Im thinking MRI w spectroscopy is the next step if it wasn't part of previous MRI.

Q & A with my husband's MO
I'm posting this in case someone finds it helpful. The scans show visceral as well as bone mets. That plus a steep rise in his PSA and the start of chemo really soon have us in a sober state of mind.

Clean PET/CT Scan - Why no treatment change?
I was diagnosed Stage 4 in 2019 and have been getting Lupron shots and taking Erleada ever since. My PSA went down to undetectable within about six months and has stayed there. I have very mild side effects (other than the loss of libido). I had bone scans in 2019 and 2020. The 2020 scan showed significant
