2nd opinion about treatment change?
So switched to Everolimus +
Faslodex
, which also gave a complete response for about 9 months. When the original breast tumour showed up again on a PET scan I was switched to Talazoparib, which I have felt very well on, much better than with the previous two lines of treatment.

Liver Mets - Ibrance - Tumor Markers
Well she was put on Ibrance/
Faslodex
and has been on it since. Her tumor markers were down to around 258. She has done great on it. She works full time and is just a fighter. We were given the impression she would not be here at Christmas so to be sitting here a year later is impressive!

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

Mammogram during Stage 4 metastatic ER+ HER2- cancer?
In 2018, I was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer, and had surgery, radiation, and have since been on
Faslodex
and Ibrance, which work. I have CTs or Skeletals every six months. My gynecolgist thinks I should get a mammogram; my oncologist thinks it's not necessary but will schedule one. ????

HANGING UP MY SPIKES.
Well as you can tell I am leaving Health Unlocked (MaleCare) since regrettably my red carpet is frayed and threadbare. It’s ironic I am abandoning the ship just as The Constitution of Medical Knowledge is being implemented in dear old Health Unlocked. This implementation has nothing with me abandoning

Dumb Question on Casodex
Four weeks of Casodex 50 mg alone reduced my PSA from 1.10 to 0.42. Casodex stops testosterone from all sources from binding to cancer cells. While Lupron decreases testosterone produced by the testicles. Why shouldn't Casodex be better than Lupron?

Ending ADT Vacation
Today I had Lupron 3 month shot ending a vacation of one year. I had been on 50 mg Casodex for 4 weeks before this Lupron shot. Originally, it was planned for a 2 week on Casodex. Unfortunately, 2 weeks extended to 4 weeks because my wife got Covid 19 after a trip to London. On June 1 my PSA was

Help with my nausea
Switched from letrozole to
faslodex
9/2021. Seems to be a little worse in the past 30 days. I spoke with my oncologist whom says it’s just anxiety…….I am not sure about that as it comes randomly and at times that are not anxiety provoking situations. Starting to get car sick as well which is new.

Faslodex and skin issues
Does anybody have skin problems with
Faslodex
? I developed pimples and itchy bumps on my face and under my hair. Went to a dermatologist, who says it’s a side affect of
Faslodex
. It’s not on the list of common side affects.

Casodex and PSA
One year into my ADT break, CT scan has shown disease progression in my lymph node metastasis. I was scheduled to have Lupron shot on July 6. Unfortunately, my wife tested positive for Covid 19 soon after our return from London. On the plane nobody, except us, was wearing mask. I am still negative.

HOPE IS ALIVE. Original PSA 209 with bone mets 8 Years Ago, still undetectable <0.10 as of today
For all of my brothers traveling down this wicked path with me, please know hope is still alive and well for all of us. I have not posted for a while as I am enjoying my life to its fullest and have put PC in the back burner until the day before the PSA labs are due. My story is a bit unique in the fact
