Metallic taste
Started Xtandi and
Eligard
about 7 weeks ago. Only SE is a metallic taste and 0 libido. Tried taking Xtandi before bed, but no difference. Any suggestions on the metallic taste?

Pausing BAT ?
For period 5, the 0.31 value at day 41 (=day 26 on chart) may have been affected by my
Eligard
shot wearing off just prior to the next
Eligard
shot since T tested unexpectedly high at that time. There is a clear pattern of rising curves.

Two years and counting
Dr Sartor said his recent experience using the
Eligard
, Abiraterone + Prednisone combo, was not as hard on bones as past treatments. He did recommend that I get a DEXA scan and take Oscal 500+D 2 times a day. As far as I know the Oscal company is out of business. I found a substitute.

Eligard vs Lupron
I can find no difference between the two other than method of delivery. Anyone else know of anything?

Having Eligard injections. Should I ask for radiation to prevent gynecomastia?
Should I ask the RO for radiation to my chest area to prevent gynecomastia from the
Eligard
. I have been told I can't take tamoxifen. I would appreciate any advice. Thanks.

Can Eligard cause gynecomastia?
I was started on
Eligard
3 month injections in August,2022. I may be on
Eligard
for a total of 18 months. Also, in December, I will start 28 sessions of EBRT. Would it be a good idea to get radiation to my chest area to prevent gynecomastia? I've been told that I can't take tamoxifen.

Calling all BAT-men ...
First question: having received my
Eligard
shot yesterday (Jan 19), and discontinued abi, what would be a reasonable date to get my first dose of high-T? My MO thinks it should be a full four weeks from 1/19, but wouldn't a full month from 1/6 make sense, too?

Finally, my MO's treatment plan:, no Triplet Therapy. Let's do Eligard, XTANDI, Radiation, XGEVA
Eligard
, XTANDI, radiation was the first option, and Triplet Therapy was the second on the list.

Undetectable PSA
Yesterday I received my 3rd
Eligard
(3 month) injection. I'm also on Zytiga and finished 44 IMRT 5 weeks ago. The cancer center is attached to a large hospital and they test the blood work in house. MO says everything looked great and that my PSA is now undetectable.

Suspicious Lung Nodule "Disappeared" w/ Eligard (Lupron)??
Second opinion provider (where I chose to go) has gone ahead with the prostate bed radiation, but also thought it would be good to get a baseline Chest CT BEFORE hormone (
Eligard
) treatment, and then do another after
Eligard
— if the lung nodule shrank, it would be a good sign of being prostate cancer

Substitute Eplerenone for Prednisone with Zytiga?
I am taking
Eligard
+ Zytiga + Prednisone (5mg). I would like to stop the prednisone and substitute eplerenone (Inspra), if that is viable. I found this exchange from earlier this year from Gearhead, with comments from Tango65 and T_A, among others.
