The Existence of the Oligometastatic State in Prostate Cancer (and other cancers)
Members of the FPC Forum: I submit to you that either I am a Prophet/Visionary, or I am a Fool, but I state clearly... and emphatically...that the oligometastatic state exists in Prostate Cancer and other cancers as well..I believe that if we were to sum it up as an equation, that it would be something

Dexa scan report showing osteoporosis
Did a baseline Dexa scan report for dad who is 83 and with bone mets. Some areas like femur say osteoporosis. He does have mets there. Have started his ADT from today with relugolix. Worried about this dexa report. Would love to hear any inputs from those who had a similar situation.

Methionine restricted diet for recurring PSA and positive PMSA pet scan w/ 1 bone met
quick to the point. PSMA pet showed 1 L2 small met and some lymph activity. My PSA went from 2.01 to 2.9 in one month. after doing some research on diets and supplements . I found that the keto diet is extremely high in the amino acid methionine and I made it worse trying to reduce my blood pressure

Letrozole alone after a year of chemo
Hi everyone, my mom is currently being treated with only letrozole after a year of chemo which didn't work very well (she is 100% Er and Pr). She took it for 5 months after taxol and it worked much better, now she has a follow-up Pet scan after another 5 months. I wanted to know if any of you have successfully

Pluvicto
My dad had his 1st pluvicto injection beginning of May He had his PSA taken 3 weeks later. It went from 16 to 23. I’m hoping this isn’t an indicator that this will fail too. He has been dealing with prostate cancer for 20+ years -prostate removed - watching till number doubled - maybe 5 years

Has anyone taken Relugolix from start and no injections of ADT ?
Is relugolix reliable as compared to the adt injections ? Has anyone been only on that and not the injections ? How soon does it bring the testosterone levels down as compared to the injections ? I am in India and it is available here at around 100 dollars for a box of 30 tablets of 120 mg each

Kishan's 6 month Androgen Annihilation Therapy Study for metastatic PCa
https://x.com/prostatecell/status/1770206641813696808?s=46 https://bit.ly/43rr68x seems to be a promising tactic for oligometastatic PCa, that combines SBRT with an ADT mix . The Abstract starts off by noting that with metastatic hormone sensitive PCa, recurrence almost always happens within six months

PSA Still Going Up
I had RP on January 2023, started ADT in May 2023 and went through 38 sessions of radiation. In November 2023, my PSA went down to 0.005 ng/mL. My PSA went up to 0.015 ng/mL in January 2024 and went up to 0.035 ng/mL in my current test. I know Tall Allen said the previous number was negligible because

I need some reassurance. I tend to worry a little bit so please let me know if the following is or could be somewhat normal. As per my history, I had 4+3 per Dr. Epstein, had Pylarify with no mets, seed implant LD brachytherapy in July 2023, EBRT 28 treatments finishing first of Oct 2023. RO said ADT

TSH how long for suppressed TSH to return to normal after stopping T3?
I saw a ‘hormone specialist’ GP today. Again she tried to tell me I need to reduce my levothyroxine because of my suppressed TSH. Only saw her because she’s meant to be good with HRT, but she’s gone mad about my TSH. My FT4 is only 48-% through range, so if anything, I’d like to increase my levo!

Best alternative PET for PSMA negative PCa
Asking for a friend. He was diagnosed 3 years ago with high risk high volume (Gleason 3+5) PCa. Treated with EBRT + LDRBT + ADT (18 months). His PSA was undetectable but is now rising (3+) but PSMA-PET was negative, even in the prostate - implying PSMA non-avid cancer. What would be the best non-PSMA

Understanding the Threat of Micrometastases (also known as Minimal Residual Disease) in Prostate Cancer or Don't sweat the small stuff
Greetings followers of FPC; It is time to set things straight in regards to the oligometastatic state in prostate caner. Posters will tell you that it does not exist because of micrometastases. So let's take a look at micrometastases first. The dreaded micrometastases.....the ultimate death sentence

ADT failure
We saw my Dad's MO on 5/23. Over the course of 4 weeks my dad's PSA moved from 1.46 to 2.14, He said we need to be on Zytiga for three months before we can deem it a failure, but just like Xtandi, it appears my dad had limited help with it. We have talked about the next steps, chemo and pluvicto. My

Hypogonadism, heat flushing, and testosterone replacement
Hi all, It is almost a year since I had my external beam radiation for Gleason 7 (3+4) PCa (see my profile). So far so good: 4 PSA tests were reassuringly low. I am now almost 82 and I am hoping to deal with my strange heat-flushing problem, which I have had for several years. It predates my cancer
