In this case Lupron and
Casodex
. Treatment path: Lupron, seeds and radiation. Now my PSA is elevating very fast with no indication of metastasis. My oncologist is putting me on Apalutamide/Erleada.

Staying alive
Hello, I am new here. I found this forum when I started Ibrance. I have been on it almost 3 weeks in addition to faslodex. Before this, my cancer had stayed back with letrozole since 2014. I originally had BC in 2001 and it came back in the other boob in 2013. I started Mets last year. I have it

DES
Started Lupron/
Casodex
did 6 rounds of chemo. Got to as low as .16 which lasted a year and a half before switching to Zytiga/prednisone as PSA quickly rose to 18. This lasted 13 months with PSA never going below 1 then started rising quickly doubling monthly.

Latest on Casodex
What is the latest research on
Casodex
? My MO in Chicago is tells me
Casodex
has lost favor with many US MO's and most are turning to other drugs. Presently I am on a
Casodex
vacation (7 months) and trying to determine if I should start
Casodex
again or try something else.

Casodex (Bicalutemide)
I have been on bicalutamide 50 mg for the past six years and has kept my cancer in check. I take it for two months and then discontinue for three months and then take it again for two months. It is cheap has no side effects other than breast swelling. I can't understand why other sufferers from prostate

Verzenio vs Ibrance?
First time posting, glad to find you! Does anyone have experience with the CDK 4/6 inhibitor abemiciclib (Verzenio)? I just started Faslodex for recurring liver mets after 14 months on Letrozole. May start Verzenio or Ibrance next month. Thanks!

New -- a little over a year after surgery, 6 mos after radiation
I had radiation to the prostate bed last April (2018), and have about another 6-8 mos of Eligard injections and
Casodex
. I feel GREAT, except for hot flashes, which are getting a little better. My PSAs are now undetectable. Here's a poem I wrote about hot flashes.

New to the group... need ideas
Added
Casodex
and PSA quickly dropped to .05. At 2 years PSA started doubling every 3 months. Also developed ONJ due to prolonged Xgeva use. Root canal gave some pain relief, but chewing impossible. Stopped Xgeva about 6 months ago and jaw started to heal.

An Update of ADT2 Treatment for My Metastatic Prostate Cancer
One explanation of why I started having hot flashes a week after starting
Casodex
could be low normal T. Also the residual hot flashes after last Lupron shot in April 2017 did not go away completely.

Zytiga or Casodex
I also am on
Casodex
. My MO wants to put me on Zytiga with Prednisone. I like the
Casodex
and Lupron combo because I am tolerating them well. I am not so sure how I will tolerate Zytiga. My question is Zytiga with Lupron better than
Casodex
with Lupron in controlling the spread of pca.

Desperate for Help
The urologist started me on Lupron and
Casodex
after being catheterized for a few weeks because of retention. The retention has subsided, but i am still urinating frequently. Does anyone have this problem of frequent urination and if so, do you know of any remedies for this problem.

8 years since dx, doing well ...
My cancer has been kept under control with very low dose
casodex
since psa recurrence, so I'm grateful for that.
Casodex
monotherapy for high risk pca patients is not the standard treatment, however it's working for me, at least until now..

Extreme Coughing, Dizziness and Shortness of Breath while getting Faslodex injection. (Side Effect).
I was diagnosed with MBC (to bone) in 2017 and had cancerous knee replaced. I’ve been getting monthly FASLODEX & XGEVA injections for over a year now without any issues. Actually....the last two treatments I did feel a bit woozy during injections, but not bad. But today was a whole new experience!! While

Follow up on Salvage RT
I would hate ( but would ) take another hit on Lupron or
Casodex
, but would that be overtreatment - I can't drive myself crazy and I would living from blood test to blood test every 6 months -- I have to at least consider QOL.

Quick Onset of Side Effects of Casodex and Lupron
On November 16 this year I started taking
Casodex
and then on November 30 I had the first Lupron shot. I was told that
Casodex
does not usually lead to hot flushes. But I started having hot flushes just a few days after starting
Casodex
. This morning, I had a very intense hot flush.

Nausea without meds
My last faslodex injection was December 26. We stopped it after 4 injections since molecular testing shows I have FGFR mutation that makes me hormone resistant despite being HR+. I received xgeva on January 8. I continue to have nausea and food aversion. Is this from liver Mets? I’m frustrated because

Xtandi for castrate resistant PC
I was on Firagon, Eligard, and briefly
Casodex
for 20 months before becoming resistant. PSA is still relatively low at just under 2, but doubling time is fast at about 6 weeks. Has anyone that is castrate resistant had good results with Xtandi? Thanks
