repost - cancer progression - next steps?
Since the cancer is showing radiographic progression on xtandi and
eligard
will his next option here most likely be another round of chemo (a different one such as cabazitaxel) or would lutetium Lu-177 be a possible option for him? Or what would potential other options be?

I started
eligard
shots every three months combined with Erleada. My testestone is around 4 and psa is nondetectable once again. When it returned the third time it has spread into lymph nodes in the abdominal area. Hope this helps.

Asking for advice
I had Firmagon shot twice before RP and switched ADT to
Eligard
. Then I started 25 sessions of IMRT. All the treatments was done within 3 and half months. Now I am exhausted. I am going to have second 6-months
Eligard
next week.

Aetna appeal for Firmagon denial
We will file an appeal, I think we can get the first dose approved just based on the known fact of the testosterone flare for
Eligard
, I’ve also read that some men get micro surges on subsequent doses of
Eligard
.

Radiation PSA, Orgovyx, Bone density
Considering switch from
Eligard
to Orgovyx if PSA looks good in early Feb since Orgovyx apparently has less severe SE and doesn't tie me to clinic for shots. Bone density down considerably( thanks ADT ) but still normal for age 83. Starting Calcium, vitamin D, and increasing resitance training.

Question in Preparation for pBAT
With
Eligard
ADT in the background, my pBAT program calls for 8 injections of T propionate eod at a dosage of 50 mg. That dosage is expected to yield peak total T of about 2,000 ng/dL.

Surgical Castration ?
I have been on
Eligard
for two months. Prior to starting ADT my Triglycerides were 100 (May 2023). After only two months of
Eligard
they are thru the roof (495). Since I have metastatic PC they tell me that I will be on ADT for life.

Just joined the club no one wants to be a member of in April 2023 - can Gleason 9 be cured ?
The highest my PSA has ever been was 5.48 in December 2022 and it dropped to .09 with Testosterone of 14 in August two months after a shot of
Eligard
and 3 months of Casodex. Since then I have had 48 seeds planted via Brachytherapy and I am about to start EBRT.

Thank you everybody
I called my MO's office this morning and left a voice mail detailing my declining status and the fact that I was done with
eligard
and wanted to be reinstated on firmagon. So a nurse got back to me at 11:00 am and I'm scheduled to go get my shot at 1:00 pm.

În panica again
He had docetaxel în the first part of 2022, and now, as I said, he îs on Xgeva monthly,
Eligard
and 160 Xtandy every day. I am wondering... what could be wrong?

Post triple therapy options?
I know the plan is to continue with the
Eligard
/Nubeqa as long as possible. And if the PSA remains stable, that would be ideal. However, if there the PSMA PET scan shows active tumors, I'm thinking of the following options, and would love your collective input.

Dental Issues on Finesteride
I received a 6 month
eligard
shot months before that. Since then I have been off ADT. Oh, I had a pylarify scan Sept '23. It came back clear. I'll keep having my PSA monitored every 3 months. Any thoughts on how my PSA is rising without scans showing activity?
