Adding Casodex
Saw an oncologist the other day and he is adding casodex in addition to the Eligard I've been on since 12/16. I am having a new bone scan and CT scan at the end of this month.

Taking it one day at a time!
Hello, I'm 54yo, and was diagnosed with stage 3/Gleason 9/Psa 36, prostate cancer in 2013. I ended up having a prostatectomy that same year. After surgery my Psa went down to 0.164 and slowly made a climb back up to 3.2 by the end of 2014. After doing some extensive reading, in 2015 I became experimental

A month later I started 6 rounds of Docetaxel. The chemo helped take my psa down to 0.06. It went up to 0.1 and stayed

Julie new with breast mets
I have had radiation (10) to the hip and I'm taking XGEVA,
FASLODEX
, IBRANCE. My recent scans show no new cancer spots and the bone is slowly healing. I've experienced very little side effects on these 3 drugs.

Ibrance after anti-hormone drugs?
Am Est+ and have cycled through Arimidex, Tamoxifen,
Faslodex
shots, and am now on Xeloda for almost 2 years. My Oncologist wants to put me on Ibrance with Letrozole next, but a consulting Oncologist says NO!
