MEMORY LOSS, WAS IT CAUSED BY THE ESTROGEN PATCHES
Following a positive biopsy indicating that I had prostate cancer (3+4) in late 2013, I began a long ADT treatment protocol that included a combination of Lupron, Casodex, Avodart, Xgeva and Metformin until Februaru 2015. I then switched from Lupron to Estrogen Patches and continued the Avodart and Metformin

Cycle estrogen and casodex/dutasteride
I have been on estrogen patches to lower testosterone. Very effective. Undetectable T and PSAs are 0. No depression. But zero libido, loss of strength, and lower RBC (I think that 0 T is going to cause those regardless of how you get there). So I am going on a combo of casodex and dutasteride. Casodex

Hi - I'm new here
Now in my 2nd cycle of Ibrance & just finished my first 3
Faslodex
injections. This stuff is harder when you're older!! I'm on an emotional roller coaster looping between optimism & fatalism.

Zometa for bone strength to be given only with multiple bone Mets or to all stage 4 patients ? Even stage 4 with multiple lymph node Mets ?
Hi, My dad, 75.5 years old was recently diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer with PSMA PET SCAN showing Mets to multiple distant lymph nodes and one met on the pelvic lymph node. He does not have any pain and got detected due to a constipation problem. His initial psa was 114 ng/ml, Gleason 4+4, he

Just came back from Dr. Appt. Erleada failing
Hi all. First posting here. I "had" nmCRPC and was put on Erleada about a year ago. It worked great for a while. My PSA went down to .15. Then three months ago it went to .3. In addition, I was having a great deal of problems with side effects. Basically, I would feel good for a few days, and

I have had a once a month
faslodex
shot done the last five months. Blood work is done once a month to make sure the blood count is ok. Every three months I have an infusion done, that is supposed to strengthen my bones. I have compression fractures on my spine.

Looks like a bit of ADT induced anemia
CBC test shows below normal RBCs, HGBs, and hemtocrit. Maybe, that's why i feel sluggish during my walk/runs :-) On a sorta good note PSA at 4.4 and T at 14 - so no doubling! It was 4.0 last month. Still on Metformin (2000mg/day) and Lipitor(10mg) and Casodex I'm going to try and supplement with this

Afinitor and diabetes and other questions.
My metastatic breast cancer has not responded well to Ibrance,
Faslodex
, and Xgeva. My wbc count tanked/cancer markers soared. She wants to move me to afinitor and aromasin. I am diabetic and worry that the afinitor will mess with my blood sugar. Anyone have any experience with this?

Positive immunotherapy trial results
Side effects are minimal and less than ibrance/
faslodex
that did not work for me. This is the first time any of my mets have shrunk, so needless to say, I am thrilled!

Dr. Is Recommending Xeloda
My wife has been on Ibrance and
Faslodex
but it appears to not be as effective as it was. The doctor has recommended Xeloda. What has been your experience with Xeloda?

PET Scan Results
He told me that we will continue with present meds which means that I will still be on Ibrance/
Faslodex
. What was new though but is not cancerous is that I have developed fibrosis in my left lung which may be due to inflammation or infection.
