2 years of ADT counting from end of IMRT versus first injection 6 months before?
To be clearer than my title of this question, my Urologist told me that he counts the 2 years of
Eligard
to start after my IMRT finished( August 2020) instead of March 2020 when I received my first injection. I was trying to process it and forgot to ask for further details.

Salvage Radiation Results Question
I had one shot of 3 month
Eligard
in February and completed salvage radiation June 4th. My psa test results today is <.02 . Could the adt still be efecting psa or is this an indication the cancer cells were still in the prostate bed area? Doing a happy dance right now.

Personal Experience with Nubequa
This was after
Eligard
failed at psa of 2.18 three months before. Now I still get the Lupron Depot monthly but take Nubeqa 600mg twice a day and my recent psa was 0.06. No new side effects. Energy level crap and endurance the same.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
Currently on Xtandi and
Eligard
but has been passing blood in urine off and on since January and at times, severe, so something must be done to try and get this bleeding stopped. So I guess it’s “between a rock and hard place” for him/us.

An Update on My Metastatic Cancer
I had the last 3 month shot of
Eligard
on March 2. My PSA was 0.116 on June 2 and today it was 0.104. All this time my Testosterone has been < 20. As long as my Testosterone remains at castrate level getting a shot or not makes no difference.

Is there a cure?
Weight gain from
Eligard
went from 225 to 240;s, now down to 217. Dr. Eric Berg, Dr. Siefreid and the man in the link below all detail cancer and fasting. I have no joint pain from
Eligard
anymore, hot flashes are more less I feel warm not soaked, and much more.

When to start
IMRT and 4 months
Eligard
and Casodex. PSA was reported to be less than 0.1. Past three years PSA has risen from 0.03 to 0.05. (.03, .04, .04, .05, .02 and .05) PSA as of now has not doubled in three years. MO wants to start treatment if PSA rises to 0.07. Seems a little too early for me. NO?

Seminal Vesicle Invasion
His only therapy so far was hormone one - first casodex (bicalutamide) and now for the past 2 and a half years
eligard
every six month. About 8 months ago he also received an urinary catheter (foley), as he is retaining too much urine.

Hello
Started
Eligard
ADT every 6 months in December 2020. Completed 40 Proton treatments to the prostate and pelvic area in March 2021. The plan is to stay on the
Eligard
for 3 doses (18 months) and check the PSA every 3 months. I've found this Health Unlocked community very informative and helpful.

PSA Anxiety and Intermittent ADT for Metastatic Prostate Cancer
My last 3 month
Eligard
shot was on March 2, but I still have intense hot flashes. As a matter of fact my past experience has shown strong side effects to remain even after one year of stopping ADT. I know there is mixed opinion on intermittent ADT for metastatic cancer.

Worn Out Wings
With the
Eligard
/Zytiga regimen I'm on, the tears come easy reading of all the suffering,frustrations and the gauntlets we must run. It all comes down to asking yourself, What do I have to live for?

Breast tenderness
I am 5 months out from a 3 month shot of
Eligard
and have noticed breast sensitivity especially at the gym. I inquired about tamoxifen with my urologist they said they only prescribe it to long term adt patients. They recommended soy products.

Wow! Ejaculation again!
Almost exactly 2 years since HDR Brachy, better than 1.5 years of EBRT, and about 9 months off the 18 month
Eligard
protocol. Testosterone slowly creeping back up, although still quite low. Libido also slowly coming back.
