Chemo with Docetaxel - side effects
I started triple therapy over a month ago with Eligard and Nubeqa, Zometa for bones, and Docetaxel chemo (with daily prednisone). Gleason 10, RP with 12 lymph nodes all negative, but then quickly went metastatic to multiple bones - too many for radiation to be effective. PSA peaked 3 months after

Starting pluvicto in another month
This is somewhat scary but read the side effects and what had the members of those who are receiving the treatment. What is the most common side effects have you all had and how well tolerated. I am glad I can do the treatments close to home and will not to go to MSK. Any information would be helpful

platelets over 900
has anyone had experience with ridiculously high platelets? My mum had blood clots diagnosed last month when her platelets were 400. She’s now feeling great and been for second round of carbo caelyx but pre chemo bloods are showing they’re 935!

Update on failing Enzalutamide
Hello again friends, I wrote recently after learning that Xtandi was no longer working, seeking options. Since then I have had a consultation with my Oncologist and we went through the (limited) range of options for someone who is living in the UK and being treated on the National Health Service. Brief

After Zofigo, what next?
Posting an update. My husband just finished 6 sessions of Zofigo (Ra223), which his doctor (MO) recommended after he failed Lupron in 12/21, and then Xtandi in 11/22. He weathered it great, with only mild digestive issues and he continues to be asymptomatic. He meets with his oncologist in two weeks

Sadly Pluvicto did not work ...
After receiving the results from my PSMA PET scan at the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, I am sad to say my disease is progressing. I had four Pluvicto infusions with no SE's what so ever.. I felt that they mirrored my Docetaxel treatments again other than my hair falling out I had no other SE's. which

And so it goes.
I didn't want to write this maybe because I won't have to admit it until I wrote it down - but I owe it to you guys. So after radiation and 2 yrs of ADT/Zytiga where my PSA was undetectable - i went on a vacation. Then my PSA started to come back - I had an initial PETscan in October 2022 which showed
