Progression
My Oncologist says that after 4+ years of ADT, I am showing signs of castrative resistance. He also said that I am currently Low volume, low PSA Oligmatistic. Can someone translate. I had a PSMA scan a couple of weeks ago and the Radiation Oncologist said that I had a positive response. Thanks

PSA seasonality
I am mounting a theory that has to do with increased PSADT during winter vs summer time. For this reason I analyzed my old PSA readings during the 2+ years before starting Bicalutamide. I divided the year into two halfs assigning winter as the period starting on the autumnal equinox and ending on the

Use it or lose it - workout questions.
Ok so up front: Gleason 10. Matters? Dunno..castrate resistant now as aberaterone failed. Been battling this since 2020. I was PSA .12 this time last year, started going up at Nov 3-month just, and up since, which was apparent failure point for aberaterone. I had cancer jump into hip, hip muscle,

PSA doubled 3 months after chemo - normal or a concern?
I don’t see Dr Dorff until next week, but had labs drawn today. I’m prepping any questions I might have for the appointment. My PSA has more than doubled in 3 months from 0.014 to 0.039. Testosterone at time of both tests was <7. At these low levels, is that doubling in 3 months a concern? I’m

confused
I was diagnosed with pc in 2020. Psa was 4.5 and Gleason 9 disease. MRI said no worrisome bone signalling whatever that means. Had surgery but psa persisted at 1.7. Path. Report showed regional spread but 3 lymph nones removed were clear. Eligard shot, Casodex for a month and 33 EBRT treatments

Pluvitco
Any input on how long it takes for PSA to start dropping if Pluvitco is going to work?

LT and cyberknife
My PSA went down to .5 from 6.0 after cyberknife. Six months later it is back to 1.0 should I be worried?

Prostatitis advice
My partner (in his mid 60s) had prostate biopsies (over 60 samples) done in summer 2023. He needed a catheter for many weeks afterwards and was in a lot of pain and passing many blood clots. Over the last year since the biopsies he's had recurrent bouts of slow and intermittent urine flow, now having

Expericence with Xtandi
I had very good results for over a year with no side effects. It was part of a clinical study. My PSA is rising so time to move on to another drug. Good luck to you!

What’s the pros and cons of Casodex and Lupron as the only treatment for Gleason 4+5 (9).
I was diagnosed with PC, March 2022. Gleason 4+5 (9). Urologist wanted to do a radical prostatectomy. I chose to change my diet, exercise and lifestyle to a plant-based detox from chemicals in my food and in my house. My PSA went from 13.7 to 100 in one year. It metastasized to my pelvic area and seminal

I just changed my username name from the impersonal "JHMX" to "JohnInTheMiddle". Among other things I liked the TV show Malcolm in the Middle. And when I signed up it was in that kind of crazy time of DX that many people here will recognize. But as I become familiar with the stories and exploration here

Apology Re: Bring PSA from 6.7 to 3.1 in 4 weeks by pure water fast (3wks) and vegan diet (1 wk).
Dear colleagues, I wish to apologise for using the "cure" in the title of the post I made here about a week ago. For reference the title of the post has now been changed to "Bring PSA from 6.7 to 3.1 in 4 weeks by pure water fast (3wks) and vegan diet (1 wk)." I now realise that I made a big mistake

Imaging Guidelines - Salvage IMRT Planning
I'm planning to start my post-op salvage treatment after my PSA breached 0.1 few weeks ago. I'm OK with the extent of the treatment proposed, which is 5 weeks of IMRT (VMAT) to the prostatic fossa and pelvic LNs. However, I'm not confident with the accuracy of radiation delivery to the target area. Knowing

Modified Citrus Pectin
New study below [1]. Earlier (2021) results [2] - full text. The study was on men with non-metastatic biochemically relapsed PCa. There was no placebo arm. Dr. Isaac Eliaz created PectaSol - Modified Citrus Pectin [P-MCP] thirty years ago. There are 110 PubMed references to it - Eliaz claims

A good day today
Wanted to share some good news, having asked for help and advice so much over the last 5 years. Dad had initial PSA of 17 and it was believed localised (2c) and received surgery in June 2018. Failed with a low score of 0.08, upgrade to 3a and subsequently received radiation in January 2019. 37 sessions

Just been told I have two years to live.
Just been told I have two years to live. Male, age 73, Eligard injections, Abiraterone and Predisnone for four and a half years, some radiotherapy. PSA levels initially 69, brought down to 7 by Abiraterone. Suddenly stopped working. Went on Radium 233 trial. Never again, and it didn't work. Since then
