Getting an appointment with a renown oncologist in Chicago=Mission impossible. Is this normal?

Clinical Trial Dallas UT Southwestern
Will begin a Pfizer starting on Monday. I will post more later as it goes. We are adding a drug to Xtandi to treat solid tumors. I have been on and off Xtandi a few times. I am chemo naive. In the past had a very heavy tumor load and received 3 rounds of Lu-177 from Ishita Sen, Fortis health in Delhi

Keytruda - year 4
So I’m pretty much closing the book on my 4th year on Keytruda (pembroluzimab). I’ve recently completely my 33rd Pembro infusion. Keytruda was my Hail Mary after running through most other SOC. My PSA was rising while on chemo the second time when I found out I had the markers that made me eligible

PSA SCREEN VS SYMPTOMATIC
My current PSA test is called PROSTATE SPC AG, SCREEN. My previous PSA test from the same lab was called PROSTATE SPC AG, SYMPTOMATIC. Both labs were off the same order from my MO. Whats the difference?

Blood in Urine
Hi fellow fighters Had blood in my urine the last 10 days. Hoped it was a UTI but a course of antibiotics has failed. I had a bladder neck incision last June to help urinary flow. The urologist saw a suspicious patch and a biopsy confirmed it my prostate cancer has spread to my bladder. I’m hoping

Abiraterone
Prostrate removed 2015, Savage radiation 2018, PSA went from 1.9 to 7.9 in 3 months in 2023 and bone scan and all tests show bone cancer including some lymph glands. Presently on Abiraterone and prendisone for the last 2 weeks and wonder if it works or not and looking for any comments or advise?

Has Anyone Heard that it’s More Common that Patients on Abiraterone (Zytiga) are more prone to their PC morphing into Neuroendocrine ?
I read a post today that it’s more common that patients on Abiraterone (Zytiga) are more prone to their Prostate Cancer morphing into Neuroendocrine Carcinoma? Is this true? Any other Medications that are prone to have it Morp into Neuroendocrine Carcinoma ?

How do we determine if cancer is in remission
Just had my fourth of five Cyber Knife treatments and my doctor said everything has been going "great." It turns out that means when the treatment was performed my bladder was full and my rectum was empty. When I asked if another Petscan was on the horizon he told me that it was unlikely that my insurer

Possible Cure

CT and Bone Scan 2 weeks after PSMA PET?
Note:
for reference, my dad lives in BC, Canada. I believe the system here is a bit different than the US - we have a urologist who refers us to the RO when needed. Therefore, there is no relationship between the urologist and RO - the RO is part of the cancer institute, but the urologist is not

Avodart added to my treatment regimen. I am Leary of it.
My MO prescribed bicalutamide and avodart after my 20 rounds of SBRT. My PSA went up to 21 after the SBRT. The bicalutamide I understand. I am leary of the avodart. I am concerned that it will mask PSA rise from cancer. Any thoughts on this?

Questions about protocol changes regarding ADT from 2nd opinion.

PSA after Radiation
Hi all, This is my first time posting and I wanted to say how grateful I am for this resource. My husband just finished his 28th session of EBRT yesterday, and the doctor did a PSA test after for a baseline. We just saw this morning that it is at 8.8! We were expecting it to be much lower. Is
