Nausea without meds
My last
faslodex
injection was December 26. We stopped it after 4 injections since molecular testing shows I have FGFR mutation that makes me hormone resistant despite being HR+. I received xgeva on January 8. I continue to have nausea and food aversion. Is this from liver Mets?

Best ADT for CVD?
My husband is going to have ADT + Zytiga +radiation (prostate +lymph nodes pelvis + metastasis) in an aggressive approach to oligometastatic cancer (T3b, N1 M1, Gleason 9). He is fit but has atheroscleroses and will need stents. Now for ADT I thought Degarelix would be the best choice regarding CVD.

PET scan on Thursday. Again
My last one was in August and showed "partial responce" to ibrance,
faslodex
and exgeva. Tumor markers have been fluctuating again between 55 in August to 68 in November now 57 again. Hopefully this scan will show improvement. Holding my breath. Lisa

Cabazitaxel/Carboplatin w/4.4 PSA zenith
What about requesting it after 3.5 years on Lupron, 1 on Casodex and 2 months on Xtandi (rough time estimates) w/a nadir of .92/peak of 4.2 PSA? Am I overboard? Nous Defions Crabcrusher

Please shoot holes in this plan.
Dx Stage 4 Gl 9 bone mets only, PSA 41, 6 cy. docataxel, leuprolide since 10/16, PSA 1.2, doubled in a year, added bicalutamide, doubled in a year, swapped out Casodex for enzalutamide, roughly half way through the Provenge thang. Plan to pause Lupron/Xtandi for 2 quarters, receive SBRT in Sep, cavitaxel

Need Advice to next level
Hello everyone, I need some advice. Diagnosed almost 2 years ago. Found my cancer had spread to lymph but not bone. I had radical prostatectomy, and was put on casodex. Psa climbed so did radiation. Still climbed up to 1.6 from .4. Put on lupron and had two 3- month injections so far and jumped to 4.6

Update in my lymph node metastasis
After 1 3 month Lupron shot and 104 days of Casodex my PSA has dropped from 4.48 to 0.17. I get another Lupron shot on June 3. I have a question, may be someone can throw some light on it. It is said the metazoic PCa becomes castrate resistant, on the average, in about 2 to 3 years of hormone treatment

Hip/Back Pain/Extreme Fatigue - residual from Casodex?
My husband on intermittent Lupron, last injection last July. Took generic for Casodex for 5 weeks, stopped mid-December due to severe pelvic pain (a known SE) and pain gradually went away. (Bone scan & CT - no mets). Before Casodex was borderline diabetic, A1C shot up to 8.9 and blood pressure went

HUSBAND'S LATEST PSA AFTER ZYTIGA
PSA now 4.20, down from 7.58 in late November, 2018 Below is my husband's signature showing his history.

PCa with bone mets and still bleeding
My dad was diagnosed with prostate cancer Gleason 7 in 2017. He was on zoladex injection every three months and Casodex daily. Recently it was discovered that he has bone mets. He just finished 10 rounds of radiation and God willing he’ll start chemo soon. His bleeding in the urine stopped after radiation

Would non-curative cryo buy me time before ADT?
Feb. 27, 2019 from yeatz: Just found out my recurrent PC is beyond curing. My EPE, penetration into seminal vesicles, & Gleason 8 put curative treatments out of reach. Docs recommend the usual: ADT. But: I HATE Lupron! Very bad fatigue, depression, cognitive problems in 2 years on it before.

Hello Sisters
Now I’m on my second cycle of Ibrance and
faslodex
and seem to be tolerating it, except for extreme bouts of fatigue. I won’t know if these meds are working until my onc orders a CT scan in a few months. I have a granddaughter’s college graduation in May and another granddaughter’s wedding in July.

Why no pain at all ??
Just wanted to know whether it is "normal" not to have any pain at all, despite having multiple mets to the bones and lung. I have been on treatment for almost exactly ONE YEAR now and have taken Casodex (14 days), Eligard (almost a year), radiation therapy (38 fractions), docetaxel (6 cycles). I

Switching from faslodex to letrazole
Due to NHS funding regulations I've been switched from
faslodex
to letrazole and just finished my fist week. I'm usually quite an upbeat person, my glass is always half full (I apologise as I know it can be irritating) but it takes a lot to get me down.

New to this site today
I've spent some time looking around the site. Seems to be very active and chocked full of interesting info. Thanks to all for that. I'm 73, otherwise in good health. 3 1/2 years post robot-prostatectomy with clear margins, Gleason 4/3, PSA at surgery 4.9. PSAs post surgery were <0.015 ng/ml until late
