Old Guy Update
I was diagnosed in November 2020 with stage 4 Ductal adenocarcinoma of the prostate. I had EBRT and 24 months of ADT which was terminated in October of 2022. My PSA at that time was undetectable and my Testosterone was also undetectable. It’s now July 2024, and my PSA is 0.2 and my Testosterone is 10

PSA at 0.285
I had my RP last January but the cancers had sneaked out to my lymph node already (no other met) so my PSA was always detectable. I started hormonal therapy last April and my PSA went down right away. It had been that way till this week ( PSA was up and down, the lowest was 0.02, usually was 0.05.).

Satisfaction with AUS after Radiation
If you have had an AUS implanted after receiving radiation are you satisfied with your decision and has it improved your quality of life? Or do you regret having an AUS implanted and if so why? I have had both a prostatectomy and salvage radiation (see profile). I regained continence after the prostatectomy

The continuing saga of Scout and Coco, Not all change is welcome.
It is with sadness that I report that My "vacation" may come to an abrupt end . After cruising along with an Undetectable PSA for a little over 2+ years, my recent test results indicate a PSA of 0.03 and my Testosterone jumped from <7 to 13. The good news is my T is coming back but it looks like

Xtandi did not work.
Hi all, I'm new to this board but would love some feedback. My father, 80, has been dealing with prostate cancer for a few years. He had initially had radiation plus Lupron injections. His PSA started rising again a few years ago and he wound up on Lupron regularly. His PSA has been slowly rising

Second Line Hormonal
I am still only receiving Zoladex injections every three months. I did try Abiraterone 2022/2023 and it failed after a few months. I have been trying to get my Oncologist to prescribe Enzalutamide. I have been treated with docetaxel again and thought it might re-sensitize me for another hormonal drug

IMRT WITHOUT THE JELL
I'm scheduled for IMRT Radistion without the jell. Doc says the jell may push cancer microscopic cells away from the prostate. He said the cancer is about to protrude through the capsule and microsopic cancer cells could be out of the capsule and did not want to take a chance of putting the jell in and

Rising PSA
I turned 87 just 3 days' ago. My QOL is still good: no pain, and a lot of physical activity. Fatigue is mostly annoying, but I generally can work through it. The issue is my concern with a slowly rising PSA. Today's blood test showed a PSA of 1.5. How concerned should I be, and are there steps to

Curious about Prednisone dosage.
Warriors If you do not mind telling me, I am curious about how many of you on Zytiga/Abiraterone take a 5 mg dosage of Prednisone , and how many take some other dosage level. I know most of your also getting Lupron injections and some are taking other medications along with the Zytiga/Abiraterone

After Lupron I have been having seizures
Hi, In December 2023 I decided to finally undergo treatment for my prostate cancer, Gleason scale 6, with a high PSA of 63 (or 48 on another test) I had had this cancer for eight years WITHOUT it spreading. But doctors kept warning (I would almost say harassing) me, so... I underwent one shot of lupron

PSA Rising and Falling during Chemo
I have been receiving chemotherapy since November 2023. Started with Docetaxel until it failed after 7 cycles. Switched to Cabazitaxel and currently on the 5th cycle. Since starting the Cabazitaxil my PSA has been raising and lowering. I am currently having some scans done to confirm if there is progression
