Stopping Zoladex & HRT
I just wondered if anyone has had any negative experiences when stopping zoladex injections and HRT? I've been on zoladex for around 8 months now but my moods have become so extreme on them and I've still been bleeding severe on them I've decided to stop to see how I get on. I had my last injection

Following SOC here in BC Canada
I am currently at the CRPC stage of my disease. About 7 years since diagnosis. Started with ADT and Docetaxel. Was able to be castrate sensitive for 4.5 years. Tried to add Abiraterone and it failed after a couple of months. Had Radium 223 and it was okay but did nothing to the PSA. Cancer kept progressing

Msa 7 months on
The symptoms still kicking on 7 months in. Still out of wheelchair (I'd say just)I've bought a mobility scooter. The council have been really helpful and speech therapy have been excellent. Old friends have been good to catch up with for an hour or so but I don't know if it's common but insomnia and

Update recent PSMA
Docs did it to me again with the usual bad news. Uptake in new lymph node locations in pelvis. the radiotherapy failed, and preclude more treatment on new nodal areas. (according to Docs.) So expect to add to ADT, abi or enza or darolutamide in a short while, with PSA going up on a fast double.

CV and Bone Health when ADT is a treatment option.
Thought this provided a useful framework to guide discussion with my medical team when discussing whether or not and what to do about CV and bone health when starting on ADT. https://www.urotoday.com/conference-highlights/eau-2024/eau-2024-prostate-cancer/151136-eau-2024-synchronous-mhspc-what-are-the-treatment-options-and-what-are-the-goals-of-treatment-what-to-test-before-start-of-hormonal-treatment-and-what-to-monitor.html

Latest thyroid test results
Hi everyone, After being underdosed on 25mcg of Levothyroxine for almost a decade, my new GP increased my dose to 50mcg around 6 months ago. The increase was done slowly over 6 weeks, as advised by people in this group. I had some blood tests done two days ago and today I got a message from the GP saying

Self Anthem - Music therapy
So, I was remembering when I had a major breakdown when my life was falling apart everywhere I turned - after I realized that the life/relationship that I had invested so much of everything into was a big fat lie ... And I started to pick myself up and I heard this song and kept playing it over and over

Well the acupunture doesn't seem to be helping at this stage, have stopped it and trying reflexology and Low level laser therapy. The GP put me on 20mg Norspan patch from 15....it didn't seem to change the effect on my legs at the higher dose but it made me quite nauseated and sweaty and tired on higher

I am 47 years old diagnosed with PC last month with Gleason score 9(5,4) and was advised ADT treatment with Bicalutamide and followed by Lupron 30 mg after two weeks.

What is done in this case ? ADT not working
In may of 2011 the PSA and Biopsy showed that I had an agressive cancer with Gleason 8 so my prostate was extracted and after this I received radiotherapy. Since during the following 9 years my psa continued very low, I suspended checking it and last september I received the surprise that it had increased
