Any suggestions for supplements to augment Docetaxel/ADT?
Halfway through chemo with
Docetaxel
. PSA at 0.02 for last two measurements. Anyone aware of any supplements that may help? I am also on Lupron and darolutamide. Treating Pulmonary mets.

Update on cabazitaxel
I had chemo with
docetaxel
in 2022, when PSA fell from about 60 to about 8, but no lower. Late in 2022 and early 2023, the Mayo Clinic sent me to the Anadolu Clinic in Istanbul for radiation with Lutetium-177, but this didn't seem to work.

Dull red blotches at chemo infusion site
Eric had his 3rd
docetaxel
chemo Friday, and for the first time ever, developed swelling above and below infusion site maybe an hour later, after we got home. He had started with a liter of saline to make sure he was fully hydrated (NP thought his tongue looked dry) (he hydrates like crazy!).

Increase in PSA
He received 6 doses of
docetaxel
which he completed on 1/30/2023 and has also been taking apalutamide daily and eligard injections every 3 months. He just received his latest eligard injection 1 month late for when it was due (4 months vs 3 months) due to insurance issues.

PSMA Scan post Ra223 treatments
My guess is we are looking at starting
Docetaxel
before Christmas. We are also going to talk to a specialist on available clinical trials that he could be eligible for. Here's the actual report, the first PSMA scan he's had.

Advice on bloodwork after radiation treatment?
He did 5 of 6 rounds of
docetaxel
chemo, then 4 of 6 lutetium treatments (last one in April of 23). We were under the impression from his oncologist that the lutetium would work quite well from his PSMA scan.

Triple Therapy
I started with Lupron+Abiraterone +
Docetaxel
. As I mentioned before elevated liver enzymes caused MO to place me on an Abiraterone vacation after cycle 1 of
Docetaxel
.
Docetaxel
was reduced to 3/4 dosage.

Reaction to docetaxel twice now.
second cycle of
docetaxel
and the same reaction. Pelvic pain, flushing, muzzy head and head ache. Great response from the team again and feeling better pretty quickly. Last time they tried again and it went through okay. Had meds to mitigate but not prevented a reaction.

PSA rising during triplet therapy. What to ask the oncologist?
The treatment has been going for four months and a half since ADT (2 months and a half since Zytiga and
Docetaxel
was added). He started ADT on December, Zytiga and
Docetaxel
two months later. He is at his third chemo dose, fourth tomorrow, and it went from 99.30 to 99.70 after the third dose.

PSA stabilizing to 99.30 (from 3103), should we seek additional treatment or wait?
My dad was initially diagnosed at a very high PSA of 3103 and he is doing triplet therapy, he is about to take his fifth
docetaxel
chemo dose and it seems to have stabilized to 99.30.

Travel insurance and prostate cancer
Subsequently my PSA started to rise again so I was treated 5 years ago with
docetaxel
followed by decapeptyl hormone therapy starting 4 years ago. I want to go on holiday. Can anyone recommend a travel insurance company that will provide cover at a reasonable price? Thanks.

Pluvicto Update
Well after 7.5 years I have had 2 rounds of
docetaxel
, 28 rds of IGRT, Lupron, zytiga you name it. I guess this is the end of the road. What other treatment could possibly be suitable for me now!!! I’m 57 years old and have run out of options. Not a good few days for me.

Chemo vs Pluvicto study
My friend is going to be in a trial comparing Pluvicto to
Docetaxel
. My question is why?
Docetaxel
has been around for so long that I would think they have all the info on it. PFS as well as OS. As well, the study was announced in 2021 so why are they still recruiting?

Abiraterone vs Docetaxel
After completing my 1st cycle of
Docetaxel
, my MO took me off AAP and reduced my dosage of
Docetaxel
because my liver enzymes elevated. Effectively, I am on a treatment plan that matches the CHAARTED trial of ADT+D.

Moving on...to olaparib
I recently updated to ask about chemo options, mainly cabazitaxel with or without carboplatin, or a second round of
docetaxel
, this time with carboplatin. I had been discussing these with my Mayo doctors, Kwon and Orme. Then earlier this week, Dr.
