On Lupron/Zytiga/Prednisone for nearly 1 YR - Stage 4 w/Bone Met
I was diagnosed with Stage 4 (Gleason 8-9) last August and was immediately put on Lupron, then Zytig/Pred after 3 months. PSA was only 1.2 but actually more like 2.4 since I was on Finestride. Testosterone was 650. Now after 1 year, I'm at 0.02 PSA and <5 Testosterone, both immeasurable. Prior PET

Latest results - improved numbers - symptoms meh
Hi everyone, I've just had my latest Medichecks results and I wonder if you could advise as my symptoms (mood, motivation, sleep) are still not great. I followed the protocol (early test, no T4 for 24 hours, fasting, no biotin). My TSH has gone from over to low normal, fT4 slightly over and fT3 still

Anybody has testicle pain ?
I am on ADT and Apalutamide for 1 year and lately I have some discomfort in my testicles. It is not a sharp pain, feels more like they are full .Since there is hardly any testosterone they should not be full right ? Pre cancer days I would masturbate for a relief but since I lost all my libido I

Milestone Day
Today is the 1st day of the rest of my life! I had my final TreStar injection in April and my Last Zytiga/Prednisone yesterday. 2 years of treatment (also had proton therapy) following the Stampede protocol. Now it is time to watch and wait! Prayers up that the testosterone returns, and the PSA does

T and PSA basically undetectable. Is adding testosterone or having a colonoscopy 3 years post treatment a good or bad idea for the elderly?
Cancer in late 2019 was G9 with no indication of escaping the capsule. PSA was <10. Treatment initially casodex followed by one session high dose brachy, 25 sessions IMRT and 18 months Lupron. Currently PSA undetectable and T still <2.5. Pushing through a regular exercise routine but have no energy

Covid prior to ivf
I tested positive for covid last Friday, but negative both Saturday and today. I’m due to start stims either tomorrow or Tuesday. I was barely ill- I had a cough for a day and that was it. We think it’s likely my partner had it as well, he was even less symptomatic, just a scratchy throat for 24hrs at

Venesection and NAFLD and serum ferritin
Hi after recent blood tests which showed my red blood count well above normal my Urologist has proposed venesection. The reason the Urologist believes my red blood count is so high is because I am on testosterone replacement therapy. I have diagnosed NAFLD my LFTs platelets all normal. My serum ferritin

Smoother skin From Lupron? Chemo?
I've been on Lupron for 2 mo. now and recently finished my 2nd chemo (docetaxel). I've noticed recently that my skin is very soft & smooth. Still have most of my body hair. Skin used to be rough in spots and dry in spots, but now that's gone. Could this be the lack of testosterone? From the chemo?

Are we doing enough?
I am pasting what I've posted in the facebook groups. Maybe someone can give me some insight. I'm posting for my husband. I feel like my hubby can't catch a break. I don't know if we need to try seeing another oncologist or if it's just how his body is reacting and there's nothing we can do about

Good News-But Do I Belong Here?
Hello all. I comment/reply sometimes (usually about exercise), but create posts much less often. It's been awhile though, and something has come up that prompts this one, Quick recap: RP in June '19 and a subsequent clinical trial beginning Sept '19 due to positive lymph node and seminal vesicle invasion
