Irrational emotional mood swings on ADT
I have recently had some irrational emotional mood swings . I had a similar experience about 6 months ago, they went away within the week. I did not equate it then with my total lack of Testosterone but after seeing some discussions on this board I realized that it was my female side in full bloom. Thankfully

Can symptoms come and go?
Hello everyone, At the moment I'm waiting to see the gp tomorrow about thyroid and b12. I'm having various symptoms but they are coming and going. They may not be B12 related. Or they may. Eg.I just did about 20 mins of putting a wash on, making up a bed, not rushing. I've had to lie down because

Weird ADT Side Effects
I have some of the predicted SE’s of ADT: loss of libido & loss of body hair. My testicles are more like two little peas in a pod now. ED meds are helping in that department. Hair loss has all been below the neck. My sister used to tell me I could win the “harriest legs contest”! Not anymore!

Simultaneous vs Sequential Rad and ADT
I'm trying to find out whether or not simultaneous rad and ADT is efficacious. Most people seem to feel that there is a synergistic effect to having rad and ADT at the same time, but I can't seem to find the mechanism for how that synergy occurs. I have a hunch that it doesn't really exist, or if

HRT & Decapeptyl
So last year I went on Decapeptyl injections on their own to try and manage pain. I came off them after 4 injections due to my mood being worse. I went back to the consultant in May who suggested I try them again alongside HRT until I had my MRI scan and have a follow up with him 3 months later (so

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

menopause and Anxiety
Hi, I have severe anxiety and am in a perimenapaussl state. As of yesterday my head became so hot I thought it was going to explode. I also have diabetes and high blood pressure. I’m on mirtazipine 15mg but it doesn’t seem to be working as I find it so hard to get through my day. Maybe I need to start

HELP! Firmagon reaction?
Hi - yesterday I had my 3rd monthly (80mg) injection of Firmagon. For all my previous injections, including the 2 initial loading doses, I did not have any major side effects, just some minimal soreness at the injection site which resolved in less than 2 days. Yesterday's injection was a little bit

Bloodwork after 4 weeks of SRT and 6 weeks of ADT
I started ADT 6 weeks ago and SRT 4 weeks ago. I just got my bloodwork back. My PSA went from .373 prior to treatment to .148. Is this where I should be at after these many weeks of treatment. Thank you for your answer in advance

PSA down but mets increasing?
I've been on ADT + Xtandi for about a year (see my Bio for details) and my PSA has been slowly and steadily reducing over that time - now down to 0.05. However, my 3 CT scans (last August, December and last month) are showing a slight increase each time in the size of my lymph node mets and the bone

Gp ringing me in the next 2 hours, assistance please!
Hello, Because I've gone downhill in the last few days I called again to speak to someone, this is after my sending in a letter last week with bloods and being ignored (fobbed off, dismissed). Now I'm hot and cold sweats, low level tingling, dry tongue (electrolyte ususally help but not now) unsteady

How long does this process take?
My 2nd post and still full of questions, would like to hear from everyone. Regarding my specific case: I was told I have to do 6 months of ADT and appx 28-30 rounds of EBRT. Of course, I still don't have my PSMA/PET scan results back yet, but I'm assuming the best case scenario. Still trying to make

TSH how long for suppressed TSH to return to normal after stopping T3?
I saw a ‘hormone specialist’ GP today. Again she tried to tell me I need to reduce my levothyroxine because of my suppressed TSH. Only saw her because she’s meant to be good with HRT, but she’s gone mad about my TSH. My FT4 is only 48-% through range, so if anything, I’d like to increase my levo!

Should I fight for Darolutamide ?
Thank you all so far for your advice, I am here again for some more. After RT in a metastastic LN last year, I am again with a PSA 2.0, with a bunch of small LNs showing in the PET. RO gave up. I will start ADT again, this time with a 2nd generation added. I will restart Zoladex, and MO is adding Enzalutamide

Taurine and ADT weight gain
One thing that many PCa endurers see occurring despite their best efforts is weight gain while on ADT. Does the community have any info on whether taurine can help, in conjunction with lots of exercise? I found a couple articles that it might.

How much exercise needed?
I know everybody’s body differs but … still I’d like some guidelines. Until a couple years ago I was pretty fit, running most days, going to gym 2x per week but then started having hip pain. I would’ve replaced hip but got Dx with PCa 6 months ago and so have postponed that. I’ve had HDR Brachy and
