Looking for suggestions
I had a RP in 1999 and PC under control for 20 years through Lupron, Casodex, Radiation, Chemo infusion and Trelstar. In 2020 PSA went up to 25 and started Zytiga and PSA went to 126 immediately which was when I started Chemo. Initially PSA went back down to 25 and after completing Chemo in April 2021

Casodex
Hi Folks, I am currently on Zoladex & have been for 3yrs I'm sure Xtandi will be next. My question is I was only on Casodex for approx 1 month just before early Chemo then moved to Zoladex, can I revisit Casodex later on or combine it with something else.? I noticed some people where on Casodex a lot

do I have to change Lupron?
tomorrow I will have 3.Lucrin injection and have appointment with MO. T value is high compared with last April data.
