My question is that since the cancer

What to do when in remission?
PSA now at >0.1 and T > 10 after seven months after four trips to University of Heidelberg and no ADT besides Dutasteride and Finasteride what can be done to keep the demon from awakening? Provenge, Bicalutemide, and supplements. Supplements are hard to choose since there are so many and costly. Is

Break after only 12 months of Eligard.
Three months after my radical prostatectomy, I had a PSA of 0.22 and three months later, 0.21. My oncologist then started me on an 18-month Eligard treatment. After the 4th of 3-month injections (my PSA had dropped to zero) the oncologist said that I didn't need any more. That was in December (I was

Anyone taken Famotidine for reflux?
I was prescribed famotidine 20mg last week by my GP to help with really bad reflux. I already take omeprazole 20mg morning and night. He said to take famotidine in addition to this. Just wondering if anyone who’s taken famotidine experienced any side effects? I felt quite drowsy when waking up for

What can I do about a 6 month old Non-union fracture?
I researched about it and found out sometimes
fractures
take months to heal fully and can have some pain, but its been over 6 months now and my thumb is still in pain and nearly unusable. It has a decent range of motion but I can't put much pressure on it.

Osteoporosis in spine

fractures
in my hip, pelvis and lower back. Just been for a bone density scan and I have osteoporosis in my spine. Got to get in touch with my gp in 2/3 weeks. The lady who did the scan said that I’ll be put on some sort of medication.

Any input on Abraxane chemo?
Got any experience with Abraxane chemo? It contains taxotere but I’d get weekly injections with lesser side effects instead of monthly injections of taxotere with stronger side effects. See below. My April 7 PSA Diagnostic did not drop for the 3rd month in a row. I’ve been taking Abiraterone daily

First major pathological fracture
We’ve sustained our first significant pathological fracture (right humerus), and upon X-rays have been told the other humerus and both femurs are of similar status. Ortho oncologist talked about doing preventative measures like plates and rods which seem very extreme to put him through major surgeries

Taking AlgaeCal plus and Strontium boost
I have many
fractures
and am scared of all the drugs available to build bone. This product claims to build bone in 6-12 months without all the awful, dreadful side effects. I was wondering if anyone else is taking it?
