CTscan due to high risk Prostate cancer
CTscan for newly found high risk Prostate cancer also came back with a SUV of 21.6 for Paritod gland and 21.8 for Prostate gland. Bones clear. Anyone have a high Paritod SUV on their scan and did it end up being cancer also?

Interpreting blood tests
I've been on ADT for 4 months in preparation for RT and then HDR BT. I have localised G8 with an initial PSA of 8.1 Prior to commencing ADT, my PSA inexplicably dropped to 4.94 but then rose to 5.37 within 2 months. Anyway, here are my test results before starting ADT; These are Aussie measurements

LUPRON CASODEX FAILURE NOW WHAT
After 26 years, my combo IHT has finally failed. My psa started to go up while unicycle-a first, in November, pas rose to 8, since then and after a disaster of my cancer set up here, my pas has gone to 20. My testosterone has gone up from around 3 max to over 9 so no idea how or why this happened while

Thank you
I stumbled on this forum about 15 to 18 months ago. Just to show you how little I knew and how clueless I was I had no idea there was run of the mill prostrate cancer or an advanced form. I just knew I had prostrate cancer and needed to make a decision - surgery or radiation. I stumbled through this

False positives
All is not cancer that lights up on the scans! In February, a PSMA PET/CT found nothing abnormal, just a minimal PSMA signal from rib 10 right. But the NaF PET/CT: "On the right, rib 10 has abnormal PET uptake (SUVmax 27.3). The same rib uptake can be seen in previous bone scintigraphy and as a minimal

Nubeqa vs Zytiga?
Hi all, got notice last evening that Nubeqa will no longer be covered by my drug provider. Apologies I should have said this in original post: What happened is Nova Scotia just in February approved Nubeqa, this then means that I would have to apply for my insurance to cover it INSTEAD of the compassion

I know this forum is primarily for those with advanced PCA, yet I regularly see posts by those who've only recently discovered the disease and are not in such adavanced stages, being treated only with 1st-generation ADT.

experiencing stomach-ache side effects
I’ve been on Orgovyx since mid-December. Normal SE; fatigue, sweats, brain-fog, etc. May 10th I started adding Abiraterone acetate and Prednisone. The past week I’ve been experiencing stomach aches, sorta some contstipation (straining) and mild nausea. Any guesses if it’s the newer meds? The info lists

relentless bowel movements
hello, I have posted on this platform before and I appreciate the feedback I have received. May IBS issues though persist. Today I have had close to 25 significant bowel movements not water but thick, heavy stools despite the fact that I consume little food throughout the day. And after 25 bowel

PSA back up after radiation
After 4 .5 weeks of radiation PSA dropped from 6.6 to 3.46 but on 6/3 went up to 5.88. I have MO appt 6/11 and he has previously indicated that docetaxel could be the next step. Following last PSA increase switched from Zytiga to Xtandi. I am guessing that a PET scan is in order and maybe SBRT prior

Provenge immunotherapy
After 5.5 years on Lupron (no Zytiga, Xtandi, Daro, etc.), my PSA hit its highest points ever (1.92), although I'm still not 2 points above my lowest reading of 0.5 (only one of those). I'm metastatic and was at diagnosis, so still have prostate. I've been researching Provenge a bit, and understand that

Methionine restricted diet for recurring PSA and positive PMSA pet scan w/ 1 bone met
quick to the point. PSMA pet showed 1 L2 small met and some lymph activity. My PSA went from 2.01 to 2.9 in one month. after doing some research on diets and supplements . I found that the keto diet is extremely high in the amino acid methionine and I made it worse trying to reduce my blood pressure

PSA continues rise...PSMA remains good
To briefly review, now 69 years old, had RP at Hopkins in Feb 2018. Gleason 4+5. Margins clear. Organ-confined. PSA undetectable for two years...then an ill-advised and reckless PSA holiday for three years until Aug 2023 when PSA measured in the range of 7. First PSMA that same month entirely negative
