PSA dropped from 28.5 to 0.57
My oncologist said that if PSA level is <1, then there is no need for a 2nd
lupron
jab, which is good news.

Short Term or Long(er) Term ADT With Salvage RT
Hi all, Need thoughts on whether my physician is on the right track recommending only 6 months of ADT (
Lupron
). I'm early 60s and very fit. Just completed salvage radiation to PB and PLN and 6-month
Lupron
shot. Radiation therapy began 6 months following RALP.

Entering a New Stage Moving to Provenge
For over four years, I had been on what I called my "holy trinity", Erleada,
Lupron
and Xgeva. All of a sudden, I started experiencing a lot of dizziness. My PCP thought it was dehydration; so I hydrated more. Still dizzy.

Surgical Option . Each option has no guarantees
I resumed treatment with
Lupron
and told my oncologist in Clearwater Fl that I wanted to go with
Lupron
and Zytiga ( learned about this from heathunlocked). My PSA went from 77 in November 2017 to being undetectable . It has remained so as of my last test aug 2022.

Had #16 Cabazitaxel this pm and sch'd a Radiation Onco appt
Had last
Lupron
on 06/03/22 and AIS never booked a three month appt, so I got it today. Maybe that was part of the PSA rise. Hmmm 2.8 on June 2, 2022 3.6 4.1 4.2 5.0 5.3 They gave me a private suite as all of the chemo bays were occupied.

Pain in side
About five months after beginning
Lupron
, Zytiga, and Prednisone, I began having pain in my right side. I've been to my oncologist, GP, and a surgeon. All have run blood work, CT scan, MRI, bone scan, and Xrays. Thought it might be a hernia, but not.

Using transdermal E2
Has anyone switched from using
Lupron
(or any 1st or 2nd level ADT, such as Firmagon, abiraterone, etc.) directly to transdermal E2? 2. Has anyone who has used it eventually become castrate resistant, as with ADT? 3.

Continue Casodex or move to Lupron?
If it rises, back on
Lupron
of course. But if Casodex is keeping it at bay, much fewer side effects to deal with. Is 1.6 a livable number, or should I go full-on
Lupron
and get it to 0?

NPR expose on Lupron Depot pricing
I’m not a fan of
Lupron
and am now on bicalutamide monotherapy but I’m still alive. I’m sure
Lupron
Depot helped. I was surprised to read this NPR story about
Lupron
Depot. FYI.

Can Acupuncture reduce hot flashes
I’m having 6-10 hot flashes per day/night on
Lupron
3-month injections. They’re interfering with my sleep. Hot flashes are the only remaining side effect (of
Lupron
) after stopping Abiraterone and Hydrocortisone ADT in January 2022 when my MO said my PSA of 0.06 was “near undetectable.”

PSA wall
Started
lupron
injections a year ago and completed whole pelvis radiation ending last February. PSA dropped to .17 by April and to .1 in June. It is now September and my PSA is still .1. Have an appointment with my MO in three weeks. Any insights from the group?

Anyone using Estrogel with success to relieve horrible hot flashes?
I stopped taking
lupron
6mo ago hoping that was the biggest culprit. Last blood test still showsT <12. I take 500mg of zytiga and 5mg of prednisone. Ironically, I had my first psa rise from .6 to 2.7 the last 6 weeks, ~20 week mark. I use 2 pumps, 1.5mg of estrogen per day.

Hey Lupron, where's my side effects?
Hello everyone, I got my first
Lupron
shot about 9 weeks back. When I saw my Onc at 7 weeks I told him that I could not clearly identify any side effects. He wasn't surprised, but I sure am!

mpc stage 4. I am on Lupron and Xtandi
I have been having an urge to urinate but not much urine comes out. I get up 4 to 5 times at night. I am scheduled to see my oncologist next month. I was wondering if these meds are the cause.

Slow rising PSA. Wait and watch?
Hello everyone My father has been on ADT since two years (Zytiga and
Lupron
). His PSA fell from 500 at diagnosis to 0.41 last September. Since then it has slowly been creeping up. In 5 months it has risen to 0.74.
