Zytiga and dexamethasone
My husband has been on zytiga and dexamethasone since mid August. Lately he has become much angrier and some weight gain. Also it seems like his feet aren’t working as well. Has anyone else seen these symptoms with this drug combination? Thank you in advance.

Dexamethasone instead of Prednisone for PMR????
Hi All! Been through some things with esophagus - had dilation and polyps removed. Acid reflux is bad and gastro thinks prednisone has had an impact after 2 years. No enteric pred in US and doc doesn't thiink putting it in a capsule is a good idea. I am down to 3.5 mg - occasional 5 if I flare and

Happy Last Chemo Day!
My wonderful, loving husband, Steve, will have his final Docetaxel treatment today, Dec. 3rd. Yay! As those of you who have been down the chemo road know, it hasn't been a picnic so he's happy to see this day finally arrive. We read all the chemo tips on this site and others before he started treatment

Bladder problems??
After 3 months on Zytiga and Prednisone with no drop in a climbing PSA ( 6.4 in 12/19 to 20.1 on 11/14/20)we elected to try Dexamethasone with the Zytiga. I was on Xtandi for 3 yrs prior. But I noticed my evening bladder leakage problems got much worse. I usually just use a Maximum Depends Guard at night

Why am I being given a dexamethasone suppression test?
After my previous blood test (stated on my last post) the doctor said that I was not anaemic, even though I have all the symptoms and have very low iron, and therefore won’t prescribe me with iron. I explained to the doctor that I was diagnosed with anxiety a year ago and that would be the main reason

FET - why?! 8dp5dt
I’m just so confused. The amount of ‘extra’ help we had this FET cycle and I’m 8dp5dt and still a stark white bfn. I don’t get it?! I’m on 1200mg progesterone, 6mg progynova, 1mg dexamethasone, 80mg aspirin, 40mg Clexane daily. Plus I had filgrastim 3 days before transfer to help it stick and also the

Zytiga with dexamethasone
My husband had to switch from prednisone to dexamethasone and Zytiga 3 months ago. The psa has made a steady decline . 9.3 ,4.9,and now 3.6. I’m wondering how others have done on this protocol? And is the fact he’s finally below 4.0 of any significance? I always thought somehow under 4.0 was a goal.

18 years with metastatic prostate cancer – operation number three, but no good news for me – the end game begins.
Well, it’s been a while since my last post, so I thought I’d provide an update. Last time round, I was coming to the end of my lutetium treatment which had produced disappointing results. Long story short, I decided to go ahead with the sixth cycle following a good psa reduction from the fifth treatment

Update to just what I didn't need
Good morning lovely ladies and thank you so much for all of your encouraging and supportive replies.

Similarities between long covid and PMR
Hi, After watching the news today and hearing peoples experience with the effects of having "long covid" I found myself wondering if there could be any link or similar issues between PMR and what these poor people are experiencing after having contracted coronavirus. As this is exactly how I have felt

Auximen scan shows significant new cancerous activity and last post about my brother
Unfortunately, this is the last post about my brother. He passed away on October 6. My brother showed great fortitude against very long odds, and his courage and strength of spirit during this brutal battle was inspirational. I am heartbroken to lose him, but I know the cliché that he is finally at peace

Remdesivir study finally published – an expert in critical care medicine gives us his verdict.
The results of the ACTT-1 trial, which looked at the effectiveness of remdesivir as a treatment for COVID-19, have finally been published. So far the only drug that has been shown to reduce deaths from the disease has been dexamethasone, a steroid that suppresses the immune system through its anti-inflammatory

Hola everyone, Thank you so much for all your positive thoughts, prayers, encouragement. This support group means alot to me, when I need to vent, etc. you seem to understand.

Bloating, nausea and tingling
I’ve recently tapered to 1 mg having delayed my taper due to hip surgery 12 weeks ago. I seemed to have no classic PMR symptoms but over the past few weeks have been very windy, tingling hands and feet and lately feelings of nausea. I spoke to my gp and didn’t mention the tingling as I first thought
