Looking into alternative treatments
I am also on my second six-month shot of
Lupron
(with all the miserable side effects). Soooooo, I'm looking into alternative treatments. Any suggestions are appreciated. I'm considering returning to Hoxsey Bio Medical Center's treatment. I was on it for 20 months ending in September 2020.

what’s typically after taxotere?
My father did 10 days radiation to lumbar spine and pelvis, is doing ADT (zytiga,
Lupron
) as well the xgeva. He just did his first round of taxotere last week and we’re gonna get him through the 6 rounds, god willing. What’s typically the next step after chemo? Does he then do immunotherapy?

Is the end in sight?
I had a blood transfusion in the hospital, Hemoglobin is around 7,5 I have just had my second round of Keytruda and still on
Lupron
. My Oncologist and the Kwon Team recommend a biopsy of the abdominal tumors. Hopefully a treatment plan will be made.

when are maximum lupron side effects ?
My Husband started
Lupron
4 weeks ago for a 6 month course with salvage radiation. As expected he is tired and has brain fog. In your experience will these symptoms get worse or has the nadir been reached and one could expect him to feel the same for the next 6+ months ? Thank you Tasha

I'm 84 and diagnosed with PC 5 months ago. I was told I had High Risk Localized PC with a Gleason score of 8.
My urologist wants me to switch from Firmagon to
Lupron
because I complained about lumps in my abdomen and he believes taking a shot of
Lupron
in my buttock every three months would be less intimidating.

Any hope?
In 2018 I started Zytiga and
Lupron
. Zytiga stopped working after three years. In December of 2021 I started Taxotere. It didn’t help. I had 25 treatments of radiation treatment for my pelvis area. Treatment stopped on 7/18/22. Now I’m dealing with the side effects.

Pluvicto Availability in the US
My first PSMA PET confirms that my adenocarcinoma has reactivated and is no longer responsive to Abiraterone/pred and
Lupron
. My oncologist feels I would be a good candidate for Lutetium 177 PSMA therapy however there is no supply in Colorado except for a clinical trial at the University.

How infrequently can you be administered Lupron?
I am trying to take less
Lupron
. It seems if I keep with the normal monthly regiment, my PSA drops below .2 and my Testosterone goes to <3. If I don't take
Lupron
for 2 months by PSA is at .4 but my testosterone is now 165. I am 60 years old.

Lupron in USA and Europe
Dose for 3 months seems to be 22.5 mg in USA where in Europa we receive only 11.5 mg. Are we all aware of this and what’s the reason?

Smoother skin From Lupron? Chemo?
I've been on
Lupron
for 2 mo. now and recently finished my 2nd chemo (docetaxel). I've noticed recently that my skin is very soft & smooth. Still have most of my body hair. Skin used to be rough in spots and dry in spots, but now that's gone. Could this be the lack of testosterone?

Jevtana stopped working. Considering Nubeqa
Started
lupron
and docetaxel. Brought psa down from 14.7 to .08. Also apparently dried up most Mets. Psa started to rise and started zytiga, which souped working in 3 months. Started Xtandi, which didn't work at all. Started Jevtana in March. Worked for 5 treatments. PSA down to .89.
