Update on my situation and request opinion
He immediately started Lupron again and
Casodex
when PSA remained in the 20. He recommended Zytiga/prednisone when PSA did not decline. I did not mention my age is 87 with no pain, no symptoms and feel quite good with an active exercise habit.

Hormone Therapy failing?
He started
casodex
and then got a 6 month Eligard shot beginning of May. He then started Zytiga mid May. His PSA beginning of June was 44 and today his PSA is slightly down to 42. His testosterone is below 0.25. Does this mean he is castrate resistant?

Any New Suggestions for Dealing With Increasingly Debilitating Cognitive, Affective and Physical SEs from ADT?
I've been on LHRH shots (Luporon, Zolodex, now Trelstar) for 18 months, and
Casodex
& Avodart for the last 12 months, due to look at stopping ADT around December 2018. MRI, CT and bone scans in October 2017 were clear. PSA and testosterone continue to be at or below measurable levels.

Good appointment!
I had my CMP done and ALT was only thing that was higher at 49. My Ca 2729 was down only 7 but I’m only taking Faslodex. I got my Faslodex injections and tolerated well. No need for scans as I haven’t been on anything to test. Now September is when I start something but not sure what. I believe all of

Muscle atrophy
He is on
Casodex
50mg only (only first e to 4 months
Casodex
150mg), but had quite some side effects (fatigue, sensitvity to sun, changes in blood pressure etc). His current PSA is 0.6 but doctors do not seem worried. Next appointment is in November.

I would now have
Casodex

Frightened Daughter Needs Advice
Diagnosis was at Mount Sinai in New York with treatment being 2.5 weeks of
Casodex
, then Lupron and Zytiga. We got a second opinion with Dr Phillip Kantoff at MSKCC who concurred with MT.

Day of Reckoning
ADT treatment of
Casodex
and Lupron started in March. Just had second Lupron shot ten days ago. He’s about 1/3 done with 40 EBRT sessions. All along, my husband has said he feels no different from how he was prior to diagnosis and ADT. He claimed to be totally devoid of ADT side effects.

Need prayers Faslodex only!
Hey ladies, just wanted you to know that I just came from the oncologist. Blood work excellent, weight good. However I can’t take Verzenino due to my body rejecting it. So I’ll be on Faslodex only until September. Please pray that I can get markers down and keep on fighting till we can find something

Introducing Myself
I immediately started on Lipton and
casodex
followed by 39 treatments of external beam radiation finishing in in 9/17. Since then I have had undetectable PSA with the normal side effects from Lipton. Fatigue is an ongoing issue and I can only imagine it would be without 4-4 gym trips per week.

Update to my treatment & A question
No surgery, 45 IMRT radiation treatments and ADT2 (
Casodex
& Eligard) After 6 weeks off of the ADT my PSA remains near the Nadir 0.48. Testosterone = only 9.9 virtually nothing. Oncologist happy but there has been no increase in energy and hot flashes continue.

Prostate Cancer Stage 4 Metastasized
Jan 31 18 MRI showed one suspicious bone lesion in the hip area. 2/14/18 started Lupron 22.5 every 1/4 along with
Casodex
. 5/16/18 2nd MRI/BONE scan shows uptake on bones. I have been taken off the
Casodex
still on Lupron. May be switching over to Zytiga.

Low Iron in Blood
He immediately started with ADT and
Casodex
and had microsurgery in February for a prostate and pelvic nodes removal. He quickly responded to ADT and PSA dropped to 0.06. One week ago he started with Zytiga + Predisone and he is really tired.
