I am from Canada and am getting
faslodex
injections monthly. We go to Palm Springs for 5 months in the winter. Just wondering if anyone knows the best way I can keep getting my monthly injections in Palm Springs. Anyone else have this situation? Grateful for suggestions. Thank you.

I've had 17 cycles of
faslodex
and ibrance (125) and despite worries about headaches and a breast lump I have been feeling really well, almost back to my pre-diagnosis self and starting to let myself think of the future more positively.

Mo betta!! Yay! Lower Ibrance & Faslodex
I am now on
Faslodex
injections. Also my Ibrance dose was lowered from 125mg down to 100mg. The difference in my side effects is SO MUCH BETTER!! Before I had debilitating fatigue, achy joints and muscles, fingernails wouldn’t grow, hair falling out by the bushel.

Second opinion at Cleveland Clinic... different treatment plan
So, after my dad's increases in PSA over three month periods (.07, .13, .23) his oncologist suggested we start with Xtandi and sent us to see an oncologist at the Cleveland main campus regarding Provenge. Well, insurance decided that they weren't going to cover Xtandi and said it's Zytiga for you! So

Daily Casodex 50mg and Tamoxifen 10mg - Amazing results in 40 days.
My urologist called yesterday with results of latest PSA and Axumin Scan. PSA fell from 65.7 to 1.7 after starting 50mg Casodex along with 10mg Tamoxifen. The scan showed the tumor next to the wall of the rectum had decreased from 5.4 SUV TO 3.5 SUV and showed no new occurrences of cancer. I was diagnosed

DO I GO WITH CHEMO OR ADT DRUGS?
Recently diagnosed with PC with a PSA of 1800. It has metastasized to my bones with lots of mets in my back. Just finished radiation to the lower spine. Now on Lupron and Casodex, started treatment early August, and my PSA has gone down to 241. Still seems high, but in the right direction. The doc

Any correlation between hot flushes and effectiveness of ADT + Casodex
I started ADT + Casodex in November 2018 for my metastatic PCa in many pelvic and abdominal lymph nodes. Previously, I had Firmagon (three months) and two 3 month Lupron shots in 2016-2017 for extra-capsular- extension. In 2016, after the first Firmagon shot I had severe hot flushes, which gradually

Which should I take first and WHY ?? Cabazitaxel or Enzalutamide ??
As most of you know by now, I have been through Casodex, Eligard, Abiraterone, Docetaxel, Lu-177 and radiation therapy thus far. My remaining options are Cabazitaxel and Enzalutamide. Any idea which should I take first and why ?? Many thanks for any reply anyone may care to give.

It looks like I will be sent for a MRI and if it is cancer he says that I will be taken off the
faslodex
and ibrance and given intravenous taxol. He said that I wouldn't be offered radiation. I just wanted to ask if this is usual?
