Dr. Myers Was Right About Supplements
interfering with drugs. Before I got a hold of Xtandi I used Casodex 50 mg monotherapy...worked really well...kept PSA at <.1. Instead of all the pills I tried powders....Food Science of Vermont Purple Power, Red Power, Yellow Power, Green Power. In one month PSA went from <.1 to .4....stopped the supplement

I continue to receive a number of requests for the specific supplements I take. Here is my story and an updated list of specific supplements. All supplements chosen were made on the basis of cancer research reviewed mainly through pubmed.gov. Doses were more challenging and were derived from the experiences

PSA 209 originally 42 months ago now undetectable still
Great news. I was originally DX in November 2014 PSA 209 with pelvic bone mets and still have been able to stay at <0.02 42 months later with monthly injection of Firmagon and 50 MG of Casodex daily. I often wonder if switching to Zytiga or Xtanti instead of Casodex will extend my life. My Dr. thinks

Asking Local MO to add Avodart and Metformin to Xtandi
I am trying to bone up for a local MO second opinion next week. Supposedly, this MO believes in scans and may not pawn us off on the nurse like the other local MO has been doing. My husband takes Xtandi and recently they added Casodex again. Because so many here have mentioned adding Avodart and/or

Xtandi Side Effects and The BS of 4 Caps Per Day
Casodex dosing is 50 mg - 100mg - 150mg...I read a paper where the maximum safe dose during trials many times becomes the rec'd dose. That does not means a lesser dose is ineffective. Look at the study below...they compared 160 mg of Xtandi to 50 mg of Casodex..right now I am on Xtandi/BAT ( 30 days

Xtandi stomach side effects
Started my PC journey 9 years ago, diagnosed with Gleason 9, and a poor prognosis. I was told surgery was not an option and started radiation. 54 treatments kept my psa under 1.0 for almost 3 years, then Lupron on and of for another 3 years...very effective. Side effects were terrible but eventually

MOs for some perspective and second opinion??
Gleason 7 (4+3, and some 5). I had recurrent oligometastatic PCa after RP and salvage radiation. We zapped the met with SBRT and I’m currently on Lupron and Casodex. I have a very smart MO at Dana Farber in Boston, but he is “conventional.” He wants to try six months of ADT and see what happens. I

Is Taking Casodex and Xtandi ok?
Husband started on Xtandi 2/3/18. He had orchiectomy but hid testosterone isn’t as low as the urologist would like so he suggested to add Casodex. I did a quick search and found no contraindications but wanted to check with the experts here. Thanks

New Treatment Plan
She took me off all of the above medications and I am starting
Faslodex
tomorrow and already started Xgeva, and those will be the only treatment for now. Just wondered if anyone has been taking just the xgeva and
faslodex
shots and how you are doing?

MBC new with Ibrance
I resume XGEVA, with additional
Faslodex
. After a year, had my recent Petscan, cancer cells seen in some more areas of the spine and lymph nodes in patatracheal grew 6cm. Had to consult another Onco, then introduced me to Ibrance together with
Faslodex
and XGEVA. I’m on my first cycle now.

Update on myself and looking for all of your wisdom out there.
Just got all of my bloodwork back. My PSA is steadily climbing. After 6 rounds of chemo, daily casodex, 2 Lupron shots. Went from 138 psa, down to .09. My MO then started the Zytiga, prednisone, and continual lupron shots. Went to 1.71 then 3.71 and now 7.78. I also had a colonoscopy two weeks ago. Found
