ADT/Exercise and QoL thanks
While attending a 10 day Vipassana silent meditation course (you do not speak for the 10 days and have no electronics/connection with the outside world - very liberating) I was not able to exercise, other than about 10,000 steps per day.

Aetna appeal for Firmagon denial
My husband was diagnosed with high risk aggressive prostate cancer, Gleason 9. Plus one para rectal node positive. The doctor prescribed 2 years of ADT plus 5 weeks of IMRT. Had first 240 mg dose of firmagon on September 14 with no major side effects so far. Doctor used firmagon to avoid testosterone

When to introduce ADT after RP failure
I'm progressing well on Triplet Therapy coming up 12 months after Chemo and comparing myself to my brothers situation. He doesn't belong on this advanced prostate group but I hope his cancer does not advance to the point that he does! [i]Diagnoses[/i] [i]Biochemical failure following radical prostatectomy

pBAT update after two cycles.
I started BAT using testosterone propianate which requires injections every other day during high T cycle. The beauty of that is fast clearing and slamming the jail cell shut on the beast with darolutamide. My recent PSA came in as 0,05 which is almost at end on my 2nd darolutamide cycle. My Numbers

perimenopause and heart stuff!
at 49 I’ve finally realised the not sleeping and feeling head fog for the past years is not having a late child (7 now) and a stent (1.5 now), it’s perimenpause as I’m now getting a lot of hot flushes (heat not helping here!). Periods still normal if closer together. But I’ve also being having more

Kidney Stones
I’m 19 months into ADT (Lupron) following open RP and 38 rounds of radiation last summer. All treatments or for Gleason 9 (5/4) PC that had spread outside the prostate. A few weeks ago I started getting loose bowels, incontinence and blood in my urine. My urologist thought I had radiation cause cancer

My son’s PSA rose a bit today.
My son’s last PSA three months ago was <.01 but today it was <.10.It was previously as high as 22. He’s also tertiary five. His Mayo doctor told him to continue to test every three months, stay on current meds Lupron, Abiraterone/prednisone for another year and two months then stop meds and wait

Zoladex and HRT
Spoke to surgeonSo my surgeon rang yesterday and explained why they aborted the hysterectomy on Tuesday. He said my cervix was fused to my bowel and possibly left ovary and my rectum had been pulled down too. He said it looked to be endometriosis that had been there a long, long time and they wouldn't

coming off oxicodone
Despite the victorious stopping of my RLS, i am still struggling with sleep. I have been taking 10mg of oxicodone. One dose at night. But it had been making me dog tired and zombie like during day. I have read lots on here about spreading the dose but i want to come off it. I am starting to cut it down

ADT for a year?
Had intermediate grade PC no spread, had SBRT. Three months out my Psa is .03. Am on Lupron for the fourth month out of a projected 12 month stint. Do docs ever say, six or nine months is enough? Testosterone at 6 right now.
