Lupron to Eligard switch
Due to shortage of Lupron, my MO switched from 3 month Lupron to 3 month
Eligard
. It was given on 9-8-20 in the fatty part of the arm and I developed a lump shortly after the size of a kidney bean under the skin at the application point.

Received my Eligard Injection on Tuesday - PSA a tick lower before injection - Low LDH score ?
Received my injection on Tuesday. Had labs done prior to injection. PSA dropped a tick from ".38" on 8/8/2020 to ".37" on 10/6/2020. My LDH was at 127. Literature says it is unusual to have a low LDH score. Anyone have any information on a low LDH score ? Thanks! Background Data: Diagnosed with

What is the most accurate Test/Scan to do when one has Metastatic Castration-Sensitive Prostate Cancer?
I have been on
Eligard
/Lupron + Erleada for the past 12 months my PSA has been undetected (<0.1) for the last 6 months. Last week I did both a Bone scan and a CT scan. The Bone scan did not show any mets in the skeletal system.

How's your whiskers after ADT?
I've been on Casodex and
Eligard
for about 10 months now. My beard has virtually stopped growing and my skin is pushing out ingrown hairs. I was wondering how others on ADT are fairing with their whiskers, 🤔 DD.

Can lack of exercise raise PSA?
More than likely from ongoing med use (Olaparib,
Eligard
, Xgeva) for the past 1 1/2 - 2 years, combined with ageing (65).

Yesterday's 2 month PSA reads vs Sept 18th. A 0.051ng/mL Delta increase. Should I be concerned?? Seee my newest Med/Onc this Friday.
I sent my newest Med/Onc a msg with some of my ADT (Abiraterone 250mg, Lupron(
Eligard
), prednisone 5mg 2X/day) He evidently did not see them as positive and ordered me; 1) CT scan abs/pelvis/chest 2) NM technicium bone scan and new set of labs, including TSH(thryoid).

Adding Zytiga Post-Chemo - necessary?
He's been on Lupron/
Eligard
since Feb of this year and next week is heading into the 6th of 6 chemo treatments. Now his oncologist is talking about putting him on Zytiga 4 to 6 weeks post chemo, even though his PSA has dropped to undetectable levels.
