Avodart and Flomax

Flomax and Avodart
Greetings brothers. A question: is it safe to take Flomax and Avodart to improve urine flow? I am tired of having to get up to pee 7 or 8 times a night.

Doc and wife disagree............
...............She contends that in fact I am still full of crap......... The doc, on the other hand says "A+ on the CT Simulation Prep. Whatever you did, do it each time." First SBRT is the 14th. Starting Orgovyx and Flomax tomorrow, starving both the cancer and the gonads......so it goes. Stay

Several Peeing Wake Ups Nightly
Hi all - hoping for some breakthrough I haven't read yet ;) Recall I am 50yr old - PCA, Gleason 9 - casodex to start, now triplet (2nd session of 6) I am not getting the rest needed to fight this beast nor to function properly. I am waking several times each and every night to pee. I am on Flomax

Or are there other solutions? I don’t want to take flomax if i don’t have yo as it screws with BP, but i will

UCLA Viewray Sbrt summary
I just finished 5 sessions of Sbrt at UCLA with Dr. Kishan as part of the FORT trial. I’m 4 days out and feeling the usual SE’s: urgency, retention. Taking one .4 mg of flomax. The last two days I’ve had some GI “bother”. 4 of the 5 sessions were 25-30 minutes long, no problem. The 4th session I miss

Barrier for RA and other questions
I have been diagnosed with stage 2 PC. I am about to undergo radiation and the protocol is to insert some gold guides - I assume to help pinpoint the machine and a barrier between the prostate and rectum. I understandg these will be inserted transperenially [sic] but how will they be removed - or will

3 Months post ADT (Orgovyx) Still having hot flashes and fatigue-doing blood test in two weeks..for hopefully nadir..
Stopped taking Orgovyx May 30th .... August 30th will be my 90 day blood test I presume to see if my Testosterone is BACK TO NORMAL (I hope) and my PSA is less than .o2 ?? I understand that the Testosterone back to NORMAL is more possible in the short term (90 days) than longer term use of adt? Is

paxlovid and abiraterone
there may already be posts like this, and If there are I’m sorry, I couldn’t find them! my dad is covid positive (first time!). I read on here in the past some of you said that you can’t take paxlovid with abiraterone? He is on that, flomax and lupron. I know it’s better to take paxlovid before it

Low Dose Seed Brachytherapy Side Effects
I just finished low dose seed brachytherapy six days ago. Post op I’ve had severe urinary retention issues mainly in the middle of the night, usually for just a few hours. Not bad enough to go to the ER, but a few times I wondered if I might have to. For some reason, daytime is not so bad. I was previously

MS Treatments
Hi. I was diagnosed with MS in 2011. I can get around but suffer with leg pain and have balance issues. I work full time but it is getting harder and harder to go so. Doctor started me on Rebif but had to switch to Copaxone due to liver enzymes escalating. I have been using Copaxone since 2012 with
