Transference of Chemo.
Another possible stupid question for you ladies.... Both Ibrance and Faslodex are forms of chemo correct? Any chance of transferring any of that to my infant granddaughter? Seems far fetched but I worry about those things. Thank you❤

Holidays
I am new here. I am from Canada and am getting faslodex injections monthly. We go to Palm Springs for 5 months in the winter. Just wondering if anyone knows the best way I can keep getting my monthly injections in Palm Springs. Anyone else have this situation? Grateful for suggestions. Thank you

HULLK - “We have uncovered a novel non-coding RNA that may drive prostate cancer,”
These were so good, but since I'm back on ADT(Lupron/
Casodex
) that may have made me pour sweat more than last year off ADT. :-) Life still good. Fight on Brothers Randy

PSA dropped to 3.9 this month after rising to 4.3 from the 3.8 two months ago
After the scare last month, I added 1000mg of Metformin to the daily 2gms, doubled the daily Lipitor and
Casodex
. Maybe the PSA was just an outlier. Still doing IF and CBD oil. Gonna add DIM and Nattokinase this time and check again. Did a 5k race and got a great view of the Queen Mary.

Erleads Medication
Various treatments over the years Lupron,
Casodex
, firmagon injection have kept my PSA low at the cost of severe side effects, I.e. moody, angry, tired, etc. All have kept the Prostate Cancer contained. Erleada has taking my PSA from the 6-7 range to .32 at last reading.

Hello everyone, I saw my oncologist last Monday. I left the office feeling depressed for the first time in a while. She is a good doctor and she really is trying to help me. What it is, I am on my third kind of treatment; first letrozole/palbociclib, then everolimus/exemestane, now Faslodex since November

Gleason score without prostate biopsy
He’s on
Casodex
and Lupron. Seeing his urologist again next week. Does he need an oncologist too? Can we get a Gleason if the Doctor doesn’t want to do a biopsy of prostate. It has been classified as adenocarcinoma. So many questions.... what else should we be doing?

Advanced Metastatic P C with a PSA of 1.2?
I've had
Casodex
and a 6 month shot of Lupron. This week the PSA is down to 1.2. Is there any significance to having an aggressive Prostate Cancer despite having a low PSA? Ten years ago my PSA was 1.5, five years ago it was 2.1.

Next steps
Hi All I've just got back from seeing my oncologist to get my latest scan results, and the good news is that the bone mets are stable but he thinks there may be a nodule on my liver. The scan has gone back to the radiologist for further intereptation but the oncologist wasn't hopeful. It looks like

Aromatase & CRPC cells
"Bicalutamide {
Casodex
} treatment significantly increased aromatase expression, and CYP19A1 expression positively correlated with estrogen responses and epithelial-mesenchymal transition."

Casodex
He started me on
casodex
until I go back to the oncologist for Lupron. I was 3.7 and after 10 days I went Dow to 2.04. PSA Since I have not had any real reactions to the
casodex
he suggests I continue with it for another month to see if PSA continues to drop.

Faslodex and Xgeva Part II
Hi 🌺 I wish everyone is wonderfully well 🌺🎀 In the previous post I asked how to face the high costs of faslodex and xgeva injections. My insurance does not cover these medicines and I can no longer afford the high costs. Following the advice I made the application on the Faslodex website. Now what

Long Overdue Update
Degarelix and
Casodex
tried first. First dose of docetaxel started in ICU and he survived to be discharged, wasn’t expected to live six months. 9 rounds of docetaxel, taken off my MD Anderson. Nadir was 2.28 I believe. Two months later PSA rising again and Xtandi started.
