Zytiga Effects On Bloodwork
He has been on Casodex since diagnosis, then put on
Eligard
about a month later, and he’s been taking Zytiga/Prednisone since June or July 2020. He has also had extensive radiation to the pelvic bed and spinal mets.

Does anyone have any thoughts on an alternative to radiation to the spine (2nd time around)?
Currently I’m on
Eligard
and Enzalutamide. The thought is that the BAT treatment may have made the PC cells sensitive to these two drugs again. I do not and never believed PC would kill me, so I'm concerned with my longterm outlook. Thank you in advance for taking the time to read. :-)

Dr. wants him to take
Eligard
injections, but does not want. Do not know if can continue bicalutamide without damage to liver, etc. Advised after surgery would probably need to wear pads for leaking and recommended radiation instead which would probably be 5 days a week for 8 weeks.

PSA Surge on Zytiga
I am on
Eligard
6 - month shots instead of Lupron. In 18 years of my battle, PSA never above 4.5 after prostatectomy. Met with my MO PA last week at Mayo Phoenix and she said let stay the course another 30 days then do scans.

Casodex vs Zytiga
Also shots of
Eligard
. Then Zytiga. Rising PSA now. Has anyone gone back to Casodex. Doctor suggest Taxotere next, but I'm not keen on it. Weight 120 lbs. 72 years old

Moving on to Provenge
I’ve been in a clinical trial that began in 2014, that was to study the use of TAK-700 with
Eligard
/Lupron vs the SOC (
Eligard
/Lupron) plus daily bicalutamide. It has served me well, as I’ve been in the SOC arm, and have made it 6.5 years with just small increases in PSA.

Most important issues to discuss with new MO in 1st appointment?
This would also be the time for my 4 mo
Eligard
shot. How often should you have your PSA checked? I am a person who wants action and no sugar coating. I need to be able to take care of my wife for as long as I can.

What Action Should I Take?
First, I was let off
Eligard
at 12 months (the trial originally stipulated 2 years). There had been speculation about shortening that from the beginning so I wasn’t surprised. I know there’s no data for 12 months vs 18 or 2 years so I’m taking my chances there- understood.

Lupron versus Eligard
So they gave me
Eligard
. Still very upset with the change as I didn’t want to mess with what was working. Any thoughts on potential issues with the unexpected change in meds

Rising PSA after starting Zytiga - Prednisone - Eligard
Good morning Warriors: My MO added Zytiga and Prednisone , in addition to
Eligard
, to my fight on November 7th when my PSA hit 4.5. My next PSA on December 6th was 7.8 and my PSA from yesterday, 12/29, was 10.1. Obviously freaked out - been fighting this beast for 18 years.

My case is moving along about to start treatments any suggestions
Was going to start Leuprolide (
Eligard
) shot today but insurance was still pending ,they should be calling me real soon to reschedule. I’m sure TAll Allen has it pegged ADT with whole salvage pelvic radiation is coming. BTW T level is 245 as I haven’t had any treatments yet!

Urine bag
His only theraphy was hormone one - first casodex (bicalutamide) and now
eligard
every six month. Six months ago his PSA was around 0.7. Today he had a check and he received a urine bag, as he is retaining too much urine.

Wishing everyone a better 2021
I went in on 24 Dec 19 and on Christmas morning I was told that I had APCa and prescribed Casodex and
Eligard
. We organised Chemo to start asap and later Radio.

Longest living person with PC
I will not take any more radiation, unless they get proton radiation here before it is to late; I am now on Hormone treatment of
Eligard
for the cancer, and the hormone treatment as caused my bone to go bad, and now I am also taking Prolia to try to build up my bones.

PSA after restarting ADT
I restarted ADT with
Eligard
on August 31 2020 when my PSA was 0.453 and Testosterone 147. Today my PSA is 0.266 and Testosterone < 20. When I started Lupron + Casodex in November 2018 my PSA was 4.48, which dropped to 0.17 in just three months. This time, why the rate of PSA drop is much slower?

Great news, I can stop taking Lupron
My Oncologist told me today that based on my latest PSA reading (0.01) and scan results, to hold off having my next
Eligard
shot next month to see what happens to my PSA level. Effectively active surveillance.
