possible treatment change/ markers increasing
I did 2 years of arimidex, and have been on
faslodex
since 2/2018 and ibrance since 4/2018. I had to stop xgeva after a year due to ONJ (last dose 12/2018). Onc had me hold my ibrance/
faslodex
to draw markers after my week off.

Remedy for Extremely Dry Face?
I am assuming this is from the
Faslodex
(& in combination with IBrance). I am on my 2nd round of
Faslodex
shots in 2 weeks. I have another round in two weeks then it goes to monthly, Does anyone else have this. If so, what do you recommend?

change in meds to afinitor & exemestance
Hi again, I was on ibrance &
faslodex
but the past 3 months my ca 27 29 markers have been climbing 71 to 97 to 109. My Onc is leaving my healthcare system and has set me up with a new Onc. They met before I was seen today, and decided to switch me to Afinitor 5mg and Exemestance 25 mg.

He told me that we will continue with present meds which means that I will still be on Ibrance/
Faslodex
. What was new though but is not cancerous is that I have developed fibrosis in my left lung which may be due to inflammation or infection.

Any one knows of a spontaneous regression
Hi everyone My father in law has advanced prostate cancer, the cancer has metastasized to his hip, one vertebra and a rib. He is currently on Xtandi after he showed resistance to Casodex. I read about spontaneous regression of cancer, and I was wondering if there are any cases among this community and

Anyone heard of Piqray?
You take it with
Faslodex
which I was on for 11 years before the damn cancer showed up again. Just curious if anyone had heard of it. I know we end up having to change treatments some times but do you ever feel like you are just over it. I am sick of being a patient.

Liver scan after finding new growths after cat scan?
Went on Ibrance, Xgeva, and
faslodex
. My cancer markers dropped dramatically. Then, at my June labs, it showed that my cancer markers had nearly doubled. My wbc and neuts were in the toilet. I was taken off all meds and got a cat scan.

Good news
Treatment is working- ibrance/
faslodex
/cygeva. No new Mets- no progression. Decreased activity in most tumors and many are forming sclerotic tissue (healing?!). He can’t explain pain in my ribs where there are 2 but they are stable. Okay.

My cancer markers have been slowly rising for the last 3 months, but this lab showed they've doubled. My wbc counts and neuts are 2 and.8
I've been on
faslodex
, xgeva, and ibrance since November of 2019. Counts were ok until April when my cancer markers started slowly rising. I had a UTI, so oncologist was not too worried. This lab showed that my cancer markers are at 134, nearly doubled. And my WBC count is at 2. Neuts at .8.

Lutetium LU-177 Trial Acceptance at Duke
I just found out on Tuesday that I have been randomized into receiving LU-177 in the Vision Trial at Duke. My first infusion is on August 8th. I had just failed Zytiga and on the road to Xtandi when I decided that I would try to get into the Vision Trial. I can not say enough about the professionalism

PSA "undetectable" after one month on ADT; What about the PCa?
My second post... PSA prior to RP was 14. Post RP PSA was 0.21 and rose to 0.53 in a couple months. Axumin scan showed one pelvic lymph node was hot. Pelvic and prostate bed radiation scheduled to start in another month. After only one month on Lupron + 50mg Casodex, PSA is now <0.05 "undetectable
