First Faslodex shots
Well, as usual, my imagination was worse than the shots! I had great nurses who chatted for a while until I was a little less nervous. One side is slightly tender tonight, the other side is fine. Our imagination is the enemy sometimes!

Zometa was suggested today Although need clearance from my dentist because possible jaw side effects.
I found out only 1.6% who take zometa have a jaw issue ok I can live with those odds although I understand the 3 to 4 week infusion outcomes are comparable to the 12 week infusions. 2016, rad prostectomy. 2017, 37 sessions radiation. Lupron casodex, Recently diagnosed with L3 lesion after zytiga failed

Starting Casodex before Lupron
I had a BCR in Nov. 2019 = PSA 0.3, My PSADT is 1.8 months. My MO wants to start me on Casodex a month before my first Lupron shot. My 12/28/2019 bone scan results are due next week. If they're clear, MO wants a PET scan to see if it's in soft tissue. Is this the way to go? Thanks

Looking Back
I start by wishing everybody a very happy 2020! The last two years have been very eventful for me. In 2018, my prostate cancer came back quite aggressively. After my Cyberknife and a short ADT for my extra-capsular recurrence in 2016/17, my PSA started rising quite rapidly with a PSADT of less than

New member seeking strength and hope
Greetings - I am a new member having spent the past week or so reviewing existing posts from other members battling this disease. I am so impressed with the wisdom and strength you fellows have and your seemingly undying positivity in the face of the reality of this disease and the harsh side effects

SABR for lung and mediastinal nodes, anyone had this done?
It has been suggested by my oncologist that I undergo the procedure so I could continue with Ibrance and
Faslodex
for much longer. He said though that the radiation may cause fibrosis.

Is it ok to get eyes dilated while on Ibrance and Faslodex
Hello all I'm on monthly
Faslodex
and on my second month of Ibrance. I have my annual eye exam on Tuesday -- I had retinal detachment twice in the same eye 10 years ago. I've had no eye problems in 8 years so these annual visits are check ups. Is it ok to get my eyes dilated?

Prostate Cancer Drug Could Protect Bone Marrow from Damage Caused by Radiation
Are they talking about Casodex? - and if so, and it's known to be safe, why not try this now?!!: “Giving the mice a single dose of the LHRH-blocking drug 24 hours after the radiation hit was enough to protect them from its lethal effects,” says Enrico Velardi, a scientist in the van den Brink lab and

Casodex and high PSA
I have gone through most of usual suspects of treatments (including all listed in the MDAnderson standard protocol for all stages) the last being NUBEQA which just last week left me with a PSA of 130. My problem is extensive lymph node metastasis. Will Casodex work on this and at what level? Does 150mg

Oligometastatic PC and Radiation
Hello all. My 68 year old husband had a routine physical about six months ago that showed a PSA of 77. His PSA had not been tested for seven years prior (which infuriates me). He then had a biopsy that showed Gleason 9 (4+5) prostate cancer. Twelve samples were taken; only one sample was benign. Two

Faslodex??
I had a long talk with a doctor who specializes in bone Mets and he told me that he thinks that
Faslodex
might work for me and not make me as miserable as past treatments have done. I’m seriously considering it but need your opinions.
