Castrate Resistant
My husband currently is taking
casodex
and Lupron. He did 6 cycles of Docetaxel last Summer. If his PSA starts to rise on
Casodex
and Lupron does that mean his PC would be considered castrate resistant? Thanks for the info.

17 years of various treatments
Casodex
was added and that seemed to bring the PSA down a bit for awhile but he was up to taking three
Casodex
. We moved to north Georgia and the new doc decided to stop the
Casodex
as an experiment to see if the PSA would fall. It didn't fall so the new doc suggested Xtandi.

My father (76 years old) is on
casodex
monotherapy. This is quite common theraphy in our parts of the world - they use it untill it works, than they add Lupron.

It's Half Time at the Chemo Bowl - I am in front right now
I started ADT in May 2017 with PSA of 7.5 and a single positive lymph node in the pelvis. 2nd line ADT (
Casodex
) started in Nov 2017. By Christmas PSA was 47 and I had 5-10 lesions in liver and multiple spots in the mysentry. I was scheduled for 10 rounds of docetaxal starting 29 Dec 2017.

Update on husband's condition - hopeful?
It's clear that something else needs to be done -- the Lupron and
Casodex
are no longer keeping his PSA at a reasonable level. A few months ago it was at 3 -- now at 21.48.

Zytiga+Zoladex instead of Taxotere
I sought a second opinion on whether Taxotere was the most appropriate course of action after
casodex
and Zoladex which reduced PSA only to a certain level and stopped to drive it down.

Is it safe to take nasonex, rhinocort or any antihistamine tablet with ramipril?
I’m on low dose of ramipril and suffer from gord ( acid reflux) and chronic sinuses. I was on nexium for my reflux 40mg and I got bad side effect so now suffering wit that coz it all interacts with rampiril. I have read somewhere Rhinocort can elevate bp? I want to take antihistamine for my allergies

Newbie with questions
I’m treating with Firmagon and Xgeva every 4 weeks,
casodex
and prednisone daily, docetaxel and neulasta every 3 weeks. Plan is to add Zytiga after we finish the 6 docetaxel treatments. I wouldn’t wish Docetaxel on my worst enemy, but i’m over half finished.

Why is Testosterone Increasing?
Casodex
in the past turned to feed the PCa cells, that is why it was discontued. I don't want to take Xtandi too soon. The blood draw was after I had been on Zytiga for 2 months.

Side effects from Eliquis
I am new to the group. I was diagnosed with stage 4 MBC in 8/17 after 10 years of being cancer free following diagnosis of breast cancer Ductal institute stage 0. I have been healthy and they found it in my eye on routine eye exam. I have no mass on mammogram and there are different opinions as to if

Low Testosterone Level
I'm stage 4 close to 5 years since devinci removal, lupron,
casodex
and xgeva, PSA under 0.02. Question - my testosterone level is "3" which sounds good but I can't get a response I understand on its relationship with PSA, etc.

Newbie writing for hubby - more bad news.
We will meet with the oncologist on Monday to discuss Mike's situation - they are already recommending a different hormonal therapy, which makes no sense since they have deemed the Lupron useless at this point and the
Casodex
is clearly not working either.

New Treatment Plan
Hello Everyone! I wanted to give an update as I had posted a couple of weeks ago that I was getting my bone and CT scan results. Well, not what I expected. I was on 125 Mg of Ibrance and was taking Arimidex daily and getting an IV of Zometa every 4 weeks. The tumor in my breast and one in the armpit

Advice Needed Urgently
The treatment he used on Mike, and I'm assuming it would be the same, is Lupron injections every 3 months for 2 years with
Casodex
starting after chemo. Chemo would be Ketoconazole and Doxorubicin for weeks 1, 3, and 5 and Estramustine and Docetaxel for weeks 2, 4, and 6.

Eligar user
Just got my Eligar shot 3 days ago, along with a prescription from 50 mg of
casodex
. Really got dizzy last night into today. Went and got some drammamine to offset the seasick feeling. Is it important to keep taking the
casodex
along with the Eligar, or can I take breaks.

Faslodex and Ibrance
I am new to the group. I received my first Faslodex injection on Fri, I also take Ibrance. Has anyone had side effects from this combination?
