Options after chemo?
Anyone here had an unsuccessful
chemotherapy
experience (with docetaxel) but is still making it out ok? What has been your post-chemo treatment regimen? Wondering what more I could ask of my dad’s doc. Note: he’s already enrolled in a Lu-177 clinical trial.

The endo biopsy revealed cancer
The doctor sends me to do
chemotherapy
, but I don't want its side effects, I want to live the rest of my life healthy without help or pity, and I'm already alone anyway ðŸ¤ðŸ˜¥. Do you think I'm doing the right thing?

Surgery
Hi I was deemed inoperable after 4 rounds of
chemotherapy
. I had a diagnostic camera, and was sent back to have 2 further
chemotherapy
treatments. During this time I decided to go for a second opinion with Professor Christine Fotopoulou, as she was recommended to me.

PSMA RESULTS
I have read that in certain cases, adding 3 to 4 cycles of
chemotherapy
to both of these treatments can be curative and am wondering if anyone can advise me on this.

Might blood be good news?
I'm now getting ready for my 3rd Docetaxel infusion. My symptoms and side effects have been very mild. Before chemo started, I was getting pains in the rectal wall, sharp bladder discomfort and pain on urination - along with blood in the urine. As of today, I'm waiting for definitive results from

Castration resistant in just a year? Normal or not? Provenge in my future.
I'm already "mildly symptomatic castration resistant." PSA tripled in the last 30 days (but still extremely low), after doubling in the prior 3 months. I was diagnosed with stage 4b (mets in multiple bones and nodes) ductal and started ADT 13 months ago. Nubeqa and Docetaxel (Triplet therapy) started
