Rising Psa while on Lupron and Casodex
I have been on Lupron and Casodex since October of 2018. PSA has been undetectable <.01 for 2 years. In January of 2021, psa was .1. My last psa in April 2021 was .2. Can anyone tell me what is causing this rise and psa and should I be overly concerned. What would be next steps if psa continues to rise

QOL during salvage?
Would appreciate some guidance. I’m 58, T3b Nx, Gleason 7, 4+3, PSA topped out at 120 before RP 23 months ago. Prior to surgery, PSMA indicated no spread. I am considered high-risk by my care team at B&W (but decipher score only 4.1). PSA steadily increased to .07, over last 6 months. About to do

Verzenio Side Effects---Take a Break?
I am on
Faslodex
, Verzenio, Zometa, and (now intermittently) Retacrit (Procrit), along with pain meds, etc., but I really think it is nee of the first three that is causing the problem in my hands and feet (among other things).

Beast has returned
My G9 prostate was removed in 2014. PSA went to <0.1 for 18 months then rose to 0.18. Received 44 doses of radiation and Lupron in 2017. PSA fell to <0.1 until November 2020. However, my PSA level this week was 0.2. Looks like the beast has returned and it is time to seek a MO. I see no reason to return

Casodex and headaches
Been on casodex for two months and just added trelstar about a month ago. Starting to feel breast pain and getting hot flashes so I’m used to that from prior time. What I don’t remember is if I had these intermittent headaches that move around my head. Anyone have that as an issue? Thanks. Mike

My Intermittent Bicalutamide mono therapy
Following PSA recurrence in late 2014 I've been treated by bicalutamide 50 mg. In Sept 2020 we decided to give a break and stopped all medication (bicalutamide and tamoxifen). At that time my PSA was 0.02 and testosterone only 58. Note that tamoxifen is causing my T level to go down. Anyway, I am

PIK3CA mutation and Piqray with Faslodex (Fulvestrant)
I'm currently on iBrance and
Faslodex
but she said I tested positive for the PIK3CA mutation and she may put me on Piqray and
Faslodex
in the next several months. I just have one month under my belt currently with iBrance and
Faslodex
.

Making a decision!
3/30 Entry Hi All, I would appreciate any comments or feedback about ADT and its affects, long term or short. Sounds kind of bleak. Thank you for your help. T 3/27 Entry My second opinion surgeon at Kaiser SF recommended RO to me, rather than surgery. He was a little glib, noting that follow up

Faslodex injection pain
I know this has been discussed before in this forum. I have never had a problem before. I had my injections last Wednesday morning and did a lot of running around and tension in the afternoon. Also on Thursday morning did a big shopping. By the time I came home the pain had started at the injection

CoC (Care Oncology Protocol) and your Oncologist
The CoC protocol does not interfere with IBrance or
Faslodex
(both of which I'm on). This I discovered on numerous websites (Drugs.com ) and others. Thoughts, coaching, advice? Thanks in advance ! Julia

Ibrance changed to Faslodex
Ibrance has failed so I'm being switched to
Faslodex
. What is your experience with the side effects of
Faslodex
? More physical pain? Fatigue? I'm not sure what to expect after reading all the "possible" side effects. Anja

Piqray tolerable by anyone
After being on Ibrance and
Faslodex
for a year with no progression, that all changed quickly so on to next line of treatment. Has anyone taken Piqray and experienced tolerable side effects? Sounded like most had some serious side effects. Thanks and Merry Christmas tonthose who celebrate it.

What should I do next?
Hi to all. Reading your posts is both informative and entertaining with a touch of sadness. It really is a journey to be a member of this club ( which no one wants to join and which takes a heavy toll on our caregivers as well). Some of you are extremely generous with your time and knowledge and I admire
