Sufficient Investigation?
My brother is a bit of an ostrich, over his prostate problems. He ignored his poor urinary flow for years, and despite my repeated advice which he ignored, he subsequently had to be admitted to the emergency department due to significant obstruction. His GFR had fallen dangerously to 10. He was in

I got some doubts about the know-how of my oncologist
I met with my oncologist last Friday and either I am confused or she is. I am open for both scenario. :) This post is sort of a follow-up on another I did back in August: https://healthunlocked.com/advanced-prostate-cancer/posts/149892314/need-help-in-understanding-psa-level-recurrence-after-treatment

Active Surveillance Still a Good Option?
The results of the latest one was similar to the other 2: IMPRESSION:
Benign
prostatic
hyperplasia
with peripheral zone scarring. PI-RADS2. Elevated PSA density, increased from prior study. Continued follow-up is recommended if repeat biopsy is not elected.

After bicalutimide and a high testosterone level is pre treatment T just guess work?
Just turning to fellow travellers on our various journeys for some input/advice/ thoughts as I make a decision on how far to push to the SOC for my high risk G9, given my oncologist is saying 15 months adjuvant (I am nervous of anything less than 18 months) is enough given my co morbidities, age at 73

Prostate cancer but normal PSA?
HI All. I had my first ever PSA at the age of 62 and it came in at over 26. I took a repeat and it came in at 25, then a week later I took another and it was 29. I had a biopsy that came back positive (cancer in 11 of 12 samples) and even though both my CT and bone. However, they indicated that since

Any Curative Treatments after RT as Sole Primary Treatment?
I see stories about RT as a treatment after RP with BCR, but don't see much when RT has been sole treatment. (See Bio-not even any ADT). PSMA-PET is clear currently, so no target for radiation. PSA has been rising, but not officially nadir plus 2, but the old 3 rises in a row has been reached. If there

BAT trial
With Xtandi failing and my metastasizes not PSMA avid enough for Lutetium my MO referred me to the Kinghorn Cancer Centre in Sydney to be assessed for a clinical trial involving BAT and Carboplatin (chemo). I am now in the trial and have had my first testosterone injections plus the carboplatin infusion

PSA Follow up
Had an appointment with my urologist today. PSA is still 0.00. Obviously I’m thrilled. He said that since I’m 3 years out from RT and 4 years from RP, he’s comfortable with seeing me annually because my PSA has been stable at 0.00 for three years. I told him I thought I’d feel better waiting until

Actium 225 after Pluvicto
I have had 6 infusions of Pluvicto, the final one being in March. Initially the results were good with a significant decrease in PSA. Over the past several months my PSA is rising and a recent PSMA scan has shown some spreading of the cancer. I am interested in Actium 225, but am unsure if I can take

My story of my 23 year battle with Pca.
I have decided to share this with the group because yesterday a guy shared his fear. In no way should you take any of this as a suggestion for treatment or refusal of treatment. I was diagnosed with Pca Gleason 3+3 July 13 2000 ar the age of 49. When the Dr. gave me the results I started sweating profusely

Annual Scans
Hubby is having his annual scans today. Doc ordered CT and bone scan as in the past to compare "apples to apples".At what point should a pet scan be done? Which tracer? His PSA has been in the undetectable range and he is feeling fine besides the regular side effects to the meds.

Enhancing my urinating experience?
Guys, Several weeks ago I started experiencing slow and weak urine stream for first time since diagnosis almost 6 years ago. This, coupled with rise in PSA, triggered my oncologist to order both MRI and PSMA scan. Would appear things are progressing and got referrals to radiation oncologist and urologist

After some Advice
Hi all, I was hoping to get some advice. I have been on AS sonce December 2021 and am due for a PSA and MRI next month. Following this my urologist said that a follow up biopsy may be required. My Question should I also ask for a PMSA, I have read that this type of imagining picks up smaller lesions
