Alk Phosphate going up after third Radium 223
So far we’ve done
Docetaxel
, Xgeva, Zytiga. Currently on Xofigo (Ra 223) it knocked the Alk Ph way down then after the third treatment it went up a few points. Has this happened to anyone? RO suggests doing 4th treatment then PSMA scan to see if there’s improvement.

Docetaxel day 4 pain - is it normal? Possible fever?
He's on zoladex, darolutamide and had his first injection of
docetaxel
this past Monday (May 15). He was feeling normal the first 3 days but mid day 3 (yesterday) he got really fatigued and felt extremely achy in majority of his joints.

How to combat fatigue and low energy from Docetaxel treatments?
Hi all, My dad is currently going through chemotherapy treatment for stage 4 prostate cancer (see bio for full details). He had his 3rd chemo treatment one week ago. He is feeling extremely tired and very low energy (I.e. he gets tired from even going on short 5 minute walks). Does anyone have any tips

After 11 years, dad has started chemo for the first time
He got randomized to the chemo arm and will be receiving
docetaxel
every 3 weeks. He had his first session on Nov 29 and will be getting his second in a few days. Anybody here been through this? Did the chemo work? For how long before the cancer came back (if at all)?

Father, 55yrs, diagnosed with prostate cancer
Also regarding
docetaxel
cycles , 6 cycles are suggested as standard cycles. He has tolerated chemo very well ,Should I ask applicability for more cycles (perhaps like 9 or 10)?? Please suggest any new treatment more than this for this stage.

Off topic Friday, late as usual.
After that she has only chemotherapy (
docetaxel
) in her armoury. She thinks this might prove too much for my liver and kidneys. I have to hope that she was only presenting a worst case scenario, as I feel very fit right now, My art therapist asked that I paint something in response to this news.
