Time To Move To More Powerful ADT
Alway on Lupron +
Casodex
except for the year i was on estrogel in the trial. Everything worked fine. Usually went back on treatment when PSA to 8-10. Last time it was 19 before i started treatment again. My psa immediately fell to 4.3 after first injection but has Is not dropped below 4.2 since.

Radiation for nipple pain and breast buds
I have never been on
Casodex
. I have developed pain and swelling over the past 6 weeks. Is this all physiologic? I did have the same at puberty and my doctor then said it would go away. It did. I would like to avoid beasts if possible.

Post 2, Strange couple of months
And then as a sort of important afterthought,, what to do after, or is it now ADT and
Casodex
until it fails, and check up scans to monitor possible Met progression. To all PC Warriors out there, Stay positive, enjoy life, and fight this bitch with all you've got!

SABR treatment options
I am considering having stereotactic treatment to my single bone met in my pelvic bone, I had prostate removed in 2010 followed by radiation cycle in 2011 then
Casodex
until early 2018 at which point a PSMA scan identified the bone met.

Second opinion at Cleveland Clinic... different treatment plan
Had chemo and has remained on Lupron +
Casodex

Casodex
. He feels great and his labs look wonderful. Dad's 78 years young. =) )

DO I GO WITH CHEMO OR ADT DRUGS?
Now on Lupron and
Casodex
, started treatment early August, and my PSA has gone down to 241. Still seems high, but in the right direction. The doc gave me a choice of chemo or the drugs such as Erleada, Xtandi or Zytiga. (I have read each drug results and am leaning towards Erleada?).

Faslodex/Ibrance combo
Hi All: Got bad news yesterday. I have MBC. Breast wounds are cancer related not from radiation. They will never heal. Waiting to see a surgeon if anything can be done. Also, after my start on Ibrance, immune lowered to 1.3. Have to wait a week to see if it goes up before I can start again. Still

Any correlation between hot flushes and effectiveness of ADT + Casodex
I started ADT +
Casodex
in November 2018 for my metastatic PCa in many pelvic and abdominal lymph nodes. Previously, I had Firmagon (three months) and two 3 month Lupron shots in 2016-2017 for extra-capsular- extension.

Failing Lupron? What's next?
He has been on Lupron and
casodex
for the past four plus years. Can anyone give me any insight into what we should expect? Will his oncologist suggest that he drops the
casodex
for its antagonistic behaviors? Will we continue to monitor the PSA since the rise is not doubling?

Which should I take first and WHY ?? Cabazitaxel or Enzalutamide ??
As most of you know by now, I have been through
Casodex
, Eligard, Abiraterone, Docetaxel, Lu-177 and radiation therapy thus far. My remaining options are Cabazitaxel and Enzalutamide. Any idea which should I take first and why ?? Many thanks for any reply anyone may care to give.

Nilandron anyone?
If so, please let us know why that drug was chosen for your care, rather than
casodex
or anything else more recent Thanks

First Faslodex shots
Well, as usual, my imagination was worse than the shots! I had great nurses who chatted for a while until I was a little less nervous. One side is slightly tender tonight, the other side is fine. Our imagination is the enemy sometimes!

Memory loss on steroids
Casodex
, Xgeva and E-2 patches. My question is about the side effects of ADT. I have minor SE's related to hot flashes, fatigue, cold sweats, anxiety and other symptoms common to many here but boy, do I make up for that by the horrendous memory loss that I attribute to ADT.

Cancer free!
I tried radiation & it came back,then one injection of Luprin,then 2 months on
casodex
& temoxin but could not go to chemo,the ADT was enough to turn me off life altogether. Two weeks ago the latest Pet psma scan shows no tumors in my body & the last Lutetium i had was in December 2018.
