Casodex time
Hello once again, my father started taking Casodex 50 mg daily on 08/01/2023 and got first injection of Zoladex 3,6 mg on 13/01/2023. His MO said that he can take Casodex for 1 month. I read that Casodex, in this case, is used to prevent testosterone flare but it is usually taken before Zoladex and not

Triplet therapy - stage 4 diagnosis
Is it best to start triplet therapy first before trying other treatments for stage 4 ? My uncle is stage 4 with spread to nearby lymph nodes and seminal vescile invasion, but no bone spread. They are starting him on Casodex and lupron shots. Can he actually do tripley therapy right away or have

Update on my father. Triplet therapy?
After my last post, my father underwent spinal cord decompression surgery - they did laminectomy and partial corpectomy of the fractured vertebrae and did pedicular screw fixation to stabilize the spine. It's been 2 weeks since surgery and he is prescribed bed rest for 4-6 weeks. After 1-2 more weeks

with chronic neutropenia so would like better immunity to current Covid strain (had 2 & 2 shots).

PET Results
I have been taking Ibrance 125 and
Faslodex
injections for last 18 months. Assuming marker hasn't changed, I'll be switching to Exemestane and Afinator. Can anyone share their experiences with these drugs? I hope Medicare covers them. Best wishes to all, and thanks for your help. Joyce

Faslodex
So I have been on ibrance and
faslodex
for almost 5 years with small issues with fatigue. But this month the shots did me in 4 days after taking them. The fatigue was so bad I couldn’t even get out of bed. Has anyone had this happened.

Liver enzymes
I have just started back on
faslodex
250mg 3 months ago (different brand to previous ones) and have had itching from two days after I started this brand of
faslodex
. TSH in Feb was 3.8 but after radiotherapy is 1.47. Has anyone experienced liver issues after radiotherapy? How was it managed?

High Blood Pressure and Secondary Therapy
I may need to supplement Lupron with one of the secondary drugs. I see that virtually all of them can cause high blood pressure, especially Zytiga, which is taken with a low dosage of Prednisone. I already have high blood pressure that is under really good control, without using a Beta Blocker. I prefer

Gleason 9, Age 72, stage 3 or 4 ?
Appreciate any help / feedback on if we should get 2nd opinion. The urologist would not tell us the exact stage, and avoided saying that it has spread or stage IV. He said the radiologist would be the one to stage it, but he suggested it was T2, N0, M0. I am concerned that Gleason 9 (4 + 5) and

Hormone therapy…
I’ve noticed lots of you ladies are on
Faslodex
. What is the difference between Letrozole and
Faslodex
. I’ve googled it and it says it the same hormone therapy. Then why some people here on
Faslodex
? Is it better in terms of tolerance and why shots? Thank you, Saba

Faslodex side effects?
My oncologist switched me to
Faslodex
(Fuverstrant) after 2-1/2 years on Letrozole/Ibrance combo as my cancer antigen marker went up to 50. So far some fatigue, some difficulty sleeping and occasional heat flush. What side effects have others had?
