BCR after castration
I had
Casodex
for 25 days then a Lupron shot 7.5 then the next month Dec 18 the Dr switched to Eligard stating they changed vendors. The day I got the shot I could hardly walk. Called the Doc the next day he said it should work itself out.

Still undetectable 56 months after DX w/ original 209 PSA and bone mets..
Still on the monthly injection of Firmagon (which I hate) and daily 50 mg of
Casodex
. I do have to admit that the side effects of the HT sucks some days, but others I feel totally normal. I hope that my good luck so far brings some hope to others. Stay well

Scrotum Itch
Started
Casodex
, Lupron, Zytiga, Xgeva, Prednisone. In about a month, developed scrotum itch, which isn't getting better. At first thought it was associated with night sweats. But jock itch ointments and powder are no help.

Help.. confused and concerned daughter.. Sepsis.. PSA Levels fluctuating
He started Lupron and
Casodex
in late January 2018 and PSA levels went down to 30's. A few months later he started on Zytiga with Prednisone continuing with the Lupron injections. He has never been at undetectable levels.

Anyone heard of Piqray?
Hi ladies, So I guess I have reached the end of my journey with Xeloda. I was on it for 9 months and things remained fairly stable but my last MRI showed some growth. Still less than what I started out with but my doctor feels like its time to change. And for all of you who I told that Xeloda side

Fulvestrant / Faslodex
Hi Ladies I am about to start Fulvestrant/Faslodex two injections every 4 weeks. Would like to hear from anyone who has been on this, how did you tolerate it and what about side effects. Thanks in anticipation.

Stop Casodex if on Lupron and Zytiga?
I've been on
Casodex
+ Lupron + Zytiga for about 3 months. PSA is decreasing fast. During recent appointment, my oncologist said I can stop taking
Casodex
. I was a bit surprised because I've read that simultaneous
Casodex
(50mg tablet 1/d) and Lupron (injection 1/3 mo) is common.

Rising Cancer markers
Good morning All Happy Saturday I was diagnosed in June 2018 with stage 4 MBC to the bones. Was on Ibrance and Femara until about 2 months ago. I had a pet scan done and it showed some progression in the bones but nowhere else. My oncologist took me off Femara and put me on Faslodex. I have had 3 treatments

What treatment for recurrent prostate cancer?
I had hormone therapy with
Casodex
150, followed by Radiation treatment for a 7 week period from March to August 2011. After treatment, my PSA fell to a level around 1, and was constant at a level between 0.5 and 1.5 up to 2018.

Monotherapy or ADT3?
My current urologist started me on
Casodex
in December and a month later in January he switched me to Lupron. The
Casodex
knocked my PSA down to 33.

With good Zytiga response, do I really need Lupron for adjunctive ADT pre-Brachy?
Scholz at POS recommended
Casodex
, Lupron, and Zytiga together. Due to delays in approvals, and whatnot, the first 3 weeks I was on
Casodex
alone, dropped PSA from 33 to 21. Then added Zytiga+Pred for last two weeks, and PSA dropped to 4 on just 3/4 dosage of 3x250mg (my choice to ramp up).

Hi again, I was on ibrance & faslodex but the past 3 months my ca 27 29 markers have been climbing 71 to 97 to 109. My Onc is leaving my healthcare system and has set me up with a new Onc.

Both apalutamide and enzalutamide succeed for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) - enzalutamide not for high volume mets

Has anyone done docetaxel with ADT as a first line treatment?
My husband was diagnosed in the last month and has only has a Firmagon shot and ~10 days of
Casodex
. We know he has a high volume of mets. Curious if anyone else has gone right to chemo instead of Zytiga/Xtandi or used it in conjunction as a first-line treatment?

possible treatment change/ markers increasing
Hello again, I posted this under my other post "worried about markers / possible treatment change " from 2 weeks ago. But am posting here as well. As I said before my Onc is leaving my healthcare system at the end of this month. I have been with him since my original Dx of BC back in 2003, and MBC

Dr. Is Recommending Xeloda
My wife has been on Ibrance and Faslodex but it appears to not be as effective as it was. The doctor has recommended Xeloda. What has been your experience with Xeloda?
