PSA Doubled in 2 Months
PSA end of August was 0.12 now 0.24. I met with 2 ROs to discuss treatment when my PSA was 0.20 a week ago . One suggested ADT 18-24 months and prostate bed radiation. Second RO says we can avoid ADT for now as he sees 0.70 as the value he believes requires ADT. I'm scheduled for F18 PSMA scan in early

how long typically does it take from diagnosis to treatment?
Hello, my father was just diagnosed with advanced aggressive prostate cancer Gleason 9-10 (TBC). Bone scan and CT scan are next to check for spread (please God it hasn’t), but the scans are not for another 2.5 weeks! Then follow-up to discuss results a full week after that. Which seems insane that we

My initial MRI and wait time for biopsy
Just got my MRI. PSA rising slowly for 3 years from 4.0 to 5.1. The MRI indicates a pi-Rad level 4 lesion 10 ml, well defined with no infiltration. Either base peripheral zone 11 to 12 o clock or transitional mid gland zone 11 to 12 o clock. Will get the location cleared up. I have an MRI fusion

PSA bounce after LDR brachytherapy?
Hi all, First, an update, as my last full update about various issues was five weeks after LDR brachytherapy (almost two years ago), in which I reported that, thankfully, I had no urinary, bowel, or sexual function issues. That update is here in the link below, and I'm happy to report that it's all

Anybody with good results on Xeloda?
I was on Ibrance and Letrozole, then Verzenio and Faslodex and then Orserdu. Since Orserdu now failed, the next plan is Xeloda. I read here some reports about some bad side effects. My oncologist at Dana Farber gave me some choices and indicated that in my situation, Xeloda might be best. The

Opinion sought for ADT treatment duration
I started taking Orgovyx tablets last April. Then I went through the typical 45 radiation treatments of the prostate. 3 months ago my PSA had dropped from 8 to 0.7. Last week it had dropped to 0.1 ng/ml. A biopsy last year showed 1 sample identified as Gleason 8. My urologist thinks I can stop taking
