Hello Sisters
Now I’m on my second cycle of Ibrance and
faslodex
and seem to be tolerating it, except for extreme bouts of fatigue. I won’t know if these meds are working until my onc orders a CT scan in a few months. I have a granddaughter’s college graduation in May and another granddaughter’s wedding in July.

Would non-curative cryo buy me time before ADT?
Feb. 27, 2019 from yeatz: Just found out my recurrent PC is beyond curing. My EPE, penetration into seminal vesicles, & Gleason 8 put curative treatments out of reach. Docs recommend the usual: ADT. But: I HATE Lupron! Very bad fatigue, depression, cognitive problems in 2 years on it before.

Why no pain at all ??
Just wanted to know whether it is "normal" not to have any pain at all, despite having multiple mets to the bones and lung. I have been on treatment for almost exactly ONE YEAR now and have taken Casodex (14 days), Eligard (almost a year), radiation therapy (38 fractions), docetaxel (6 cycles). I

Switching from faslodex to letrazole
Due to NHS funding regulations I've been switched from
faslodex
to letrazole and just finished my fist week. I'm usually quite an upbeat person, my glass is always half full (I apologise as I know it can be irritating) but it takes a lot to get me down.

MATCH trial and Caris molecular intelligence results
So, no more
faslodex
because they don’t think it will work anyway for me (did 4 shots for 1 month). No more zolodex because I don’t have to be in menopause. Just had the xgeva today. Doctor told me to keep positive. ❤️

New to this site today
I've spent some time looking around the site. Seems to be very active and chocked full of interesting info. Thanks to all for that. I'm 73, otherwise in good health. 3 1/2 years post robot-prostatectomy with clear margins, Gleason 4/3, PSA at surgery 4.9. PSAs post surgery were <0.015 ng/ml until late

Casodex dosage
Zytiga failure after just 6 months and subsequent RP. Continuing on Eligard. Just started 50 mg Casodex daily to control accelerating PSA, 0.15 11/22/18 to 0.55 2/12/19. Is this the right dose, as I have seen various postings of up to 150 mg? I am pending application for Provenge. Also Olaparib

Clearly Defined Mets - Radiate or not??
First, thanks to all of you for your input - Fish, George 71, Nalakrats and everyone else. I have six Mets that are clearly defined on my scans. One on each hip bone, two on my spine and one each on a rib. I too am very interested in radiation treatments to see if we can get rid of these mets. I am

Ca markers high
My markers are sky high over 3000 but all of my scans are good and I feel great so my onc and I decided to keep my ibrance and
faslodex
treatments the same and just ignore the numbers for a few months. Anyone else with high numbers but no symptoms.?

Docateaxel or Actinium?
Decision time!! Any advice and experiences would be appreciated. Diagnosed 2014 with PSA 15. Gleason 8 (9?) . ADT worked for a number of years but PSA climbed in late 2016 so had 62 Grays in 20 fractions late 2016. PSA continued to rise so had 2 months of Casodex which did not work with PSA climbing

Magestrol acetate
I was just switched to it as the Ibrance/
faslodex
stopped working ( over the year it had shrunk all 8 tumors) yet now have 3 new tumors in spine. Also started radiation again( SABRT) it’s very targeted and strong so only get zapped 3 days a week so body can recover before next zap.

Chemo treatment/What happens after chemo?
Hello all. I hope everyone is doing well. Just wanted to give everyone an update on my husband. I had to take mike to the emergency room Sunday afternoon because he was having shortness of breath and thought his hemoglobin might have been low and he might need a blood transfusion (he’s already had 3)
