End of BAT; a few lessons
This will be the last as the anti androgen I use (
bicalutamide
) failed in spectacular fashion. I will post on subsequent treatments. The pattern of failure may interest. Hist: Failure of long running ADT (zoladex) was about 2015 when I started bicaulutamide.

Bicalutamide or not?
Oncologist wants me to take
bicalutamide
when I get the Lupron. I'm reading in the journals and studies that it may just create side effects that would offset what appears to be a minimum benefit if I'm feeling no pain. QUESTION-
Bicalutamide

SOC is working for me - so far anyway.
As I’m castrate resistant with PSA doubling every 3 months I started
bicalutamide
, an oldie but in some cases it still produces great results. With Stage 4 the only certainty is that the disease keeps on keeping on.

6-month Update: PSA down / Testosterone up
Since so far probably
Bicalutamide
is doing 99% of the job, but she knows that we need to achieve castration levels soon, we put these options over the table: A) Keep the course of Leuprolide and increase
Bicalutamide
to 150 MG until castration levels.

High Blood Pressure anyone?
I've been on
Bicalutamide
and Lupron since December 2019, recently completed 9 sessions of Docetaxel and today will be my 10th Radio session. At my Nursing check four days ago, I discovered that my BP was 163/100. I have since been monitoring it and has remained around that pressure, even at home.

Seeking advice regarding hormone therapy and radiotherapy duration
So the doctor gave my dad the first Lucrin (lupron) 11.25mg injection on July 28, 2020, and prescribed him
bicalutamide
50mg daily and scheduled him to have radiotherapy after 6 weeks of the injection. Of course we wanted to seek second opinion so we went for several other doctors.

Tough decisions - looking for advice
CT scan showed Lymph nodes involved, but bone scan was clean. 1st doctor (urologist) started
Bicalutamide
and TrelStar. I quickly moved to Winship Cancer Institute. My Medical Oncologist is switching my to Lupron, Prednisone & Zytiga.

Will Lupron and Casodex affect a PSMA PET Scan?

Free vs Total Testosterone? - Redux.
First-generation non-steroidal anti-androgens, including flutamide and
bicalutamide
, block the androgen receptor, thereby inhibiting intracellular signaling.
