Faslodex Versus Zeloda?
The Letrozol was not successful for me. I had progression and it caused all sorts of side effects which I am still dealing with . My oncologist wants me to start on Faslodex. She notes that I have a skinny bum. Because of the knowledge I have gained from you all on this forum, I, of course, know

Folfox after Taxotere and Jevtana failed
He received hormone therapy (Anandron- Decapeptyl then
Casodex
-Decapeptyl) and radiotherapy and was cancer free for one year. Then, a PET scan showed a lesion on T3 and on the left sacro iliac joint. Moved on to Xtandi + Decapeptyl followed by Zytiga + Decapeptyl.

Zytiga Effects On Bloodwork
He has been on
Casodex
since diagnosis, then put on Eligard about a month later, and he’s been taking Zytiga/Prednisone since June or July 2020. He has also had extensive radiation to the pelvic bed and spinal mets.

Casodex vs Zytiga
Casodex
controlled PSA first year. PSA went up a little, switched to Extandi, had Provenge treatment. Also shots of Eligard. Then Zytiga. Rising PSA now. Has anyone gone back to
Casodex
. Doctor suggest Taxotere next, but I'm not keen on it. Weight 120 lbs. 72 years old

PSA rising, won't be able to escape ADT. Any tips for brain-fog and depression handling?
Oct 29 PSA 27 Nov 12 PSA 19.76 Dec 1 PSA 25 Dec 15 PSA 31.97 Jan 12 PSA 59 So not only did
Casodex
make me so sick that I had to go to the emergency room with breathing and cognitive issues on Dec 27 but on top of it,
Casodex
did not do anything to lower my PSA.

ADT and growth of breasts
I was not a victim of breast enlargement during my first injection of Lupron or while on
Casodex
but I do not know if it is any indication that my breasts won't grow once I start ADT again in a few weeks. Did any of you experience growing breasts while under ADT?

BRONJ... what to expect?
Immidiatly he started
Casodex
+ Zometa 1 in 28 day. А year later, the implants began to wobble. And only then my sister and I found out that he was doing them at all. He did not tell his dentist about the diagnosis at all, and even less did he tell about bisphosphonates !!!

Scientific Study on Fenbendazole - for Cancer Treatment

Mammogram today wish me luck
Although I am already on Ibrance, Faslodex and Xgeva, I’m getting a mammogram today to make sure everything else is OK. And yes it freaks me out just thinking about it. Wish me luck ladies. I tell myself what are the odds I could have another new cancer?

Aberateron Acetate stopped working
Casodex
and then Zytiga and prednisone with Lupron shots and now psa is over 4. Doc switched to Xtandi. Coming off prednisone is causing pain at met sites, we think. Any thoughts? We will definitely take prayers! I don't write often- but appreciate you all so much!

Urine bag
His only theraphy was hormone one - first
casodex
(bicalutamide) and now eligard every six month. Six months ago his PSA was around 0.7. Today he had a check and he received a urine bag, as he is retaining too much urine.

PSA after restarting ADT
When I started Lupron +
Casodex
in November 2018 my PSA was 4.48, which dropped to 0.17 in just three months. This time, why the rate of PSA drop is much slower? During ADT break my PSA increased rapidly from 0.07 to 0.453 while T increased to 147 over a period of 9 months.
