Bladder problems??
After 3 months on Zytiga and Prednisone with no drop in a climbing PSA ( 6.4 in 12/19 to 20.1 on 11/14/20)we elected to try
Dexamethasone
with the Zytiga. I was on Xtandi for 3 yrs prior. But I noticed my evening bladder leakage problems got much worse.

Zytiga with dexamethasone
My husband had to switch from prednisone to
dexamethasone
and Zytiga 3 months ago. The psa has made a steady decline . 9.3 ,4.9,and now 3.6. I’m wondering how others have done on this protocol? And is the fact he’s finally below 4.0 of any significance?

FET - why?! 8dp5dt
I’m on 1200mg progesterone, 6mg progynova, 1mg
dexamethasone
, 80mg aspirin, 40mg Clexane daily. Plus I had filgrastim 3 days before transfer to help it stick and also the intralipid drip on the day of transfer. Also had the endo scratch last month, that is supposed to increase chances.

Happy Last Chemo Day!
He always feels great the first 3 days after chemo because of the
Dexamethasone
they give him before his infusion but about the 4th day he has a chemo crash. This last time he also had a little nausea for about 4 days and that was the first time he ever experienced that.

Genital Lichen Sclerosus
Hi everybody, I was diagnosed with BXO a few days ago. I had always had phimosis (full retraction when flaccid; none when erect) but in last 5 months my phimosis had closed completely and I developed scarring and discolouration on the foreskin. At the moment, my foreskin is so tight that it is uncomfortable

Codeine
Hi my mum is in terrible pain and she was given 2 injections this morning one in each hips and she has been given
Dexamethasone
and also codeine this morning. She started 2nd course of capecitabine this week. My question should you be having codeine while having capecitabine.

Update to just what I didn't need
I'm on antibiotics for cellulitis in my arm from a cannula and more for my UTI after removal of my catheter but hopefully they will start working soon 😊 The problem with the trial was that they wanted me to come off
dexamethasone
before I started.

Similarities between long covid and PMR
I have no medical knowledge at all, but it seems that if the recovery from this virus is being helped with
dexamethasone
, is there a link to us all being on steroids of one form or another which is the only way we can operate.

Please guide on Medical oncologist's advice
Should I change abiratarone to enzaluatamide or should I just change Prednisone to
dexamethasone
and not changing abiratarone? What dosage of
dexamethasone
should he take as he used to have 5 mg Prednisone so should he take 0.5 mg
dexamethasone
or 1 mg.? Any other options available ?

Remdesivir study finally published – an expert in critical care medicine gives us his verdict.
So far the only drug that has been shown to reduce deaths from the disease has been
dexamethasone
, a steroid that suppresses the immune system through its anti-inflammatory effects. Steroids have a secondary effect on the disease – they don’t target the virus itself.

18 years with metastatic prostate cancer – operation number three, but no good news for me – the end game begins.
The steroids do their stuff and reduced the pain significantly, but, as ever, they gave me the roid rage, made me incredibly antsy, and forced me to eat like a pig (this is
dexamethasone
, which is always worse than prednisone for me).

Bloating, nausea and tingling
I spoke to my gp and didn’t mention the tingling as I first thought it was related to the hip op where I was given a large dose of
dexamethasone
. My gp prescribed omeprazole as I’m having reflux and loss of appetite.

Update Oct 9, 2020
Doc suggested Taxol once a week with
Dexamethasone
(before treatment) and another drug. Tentatively it will be three weeks on once a week, 1.5 hrs per treatment for three weeks, one week off.

Side effects of RCD Chemotherapy
I have undergone 2 cycles of rituximab, cyclophosphamide and
dexamethasone
(RCD) chemotherapy. This alternative therapy was decided by treating Hematologist after discontinuing Ibrutinib due to intolerance.
