How often are scans done
Going next week for my 6 month scan since last December when the psa was 15.5, since doing arbitrone with prednisone and xgeva and
lupron
, the psa is now at .7. If the psa drops why would they do a CT scan when the last one showed no disease progression.

Does Firmagon injection scar tissue go away? How long does it take?
But I only preserved a limited area in my belly before switching to
lupron
. Sure could use more room at those unhealed former Firmagon injection sites.

Info on Xofigo
Lupron
15 months then Zytiga added! Exgeva started at diagnosis. PSA never went to single digits! Rising over last 6 months. March 29th 308.47 April 26th 312.34 May 24th 346.60 Zytiga stopped in May pain has increased maybe just coincidence.

Lupron - How do you do it...
One of my questions is how in the world do so many pay for
LUPRON
? I mean, I have good insurance but even with that one injection still costs me $475 out of my own pocket... how long do
lupron
injections go on?

Cannot take antioxidants during radiotherapy
My first run on
Lupron
a year ago had been debilitating making it very difficult for me to do my work as a software developer. I ended up going off
Lupron
following that first shot.

Changing horses, Enzalutamide to Abiraterone(Zytiga)
So we made a decision to start on Abiraterone/prednisone now while continuing on
Lupron
. So far tolerating the new drugs and labs are okay. Will wait to get PSA. I feel good enough to enjoy everything I am able to do for 80 years old with age certainly slowing me down.

Update and 2nd opinion
(my Urologist wanted to just keep on
lupron
for now and then we will see what happens.) I am currently waiting on the MO to have Radiation Oncologist look at my bone scan to see how much etc. One of our son's is a nurse and helped us sort thru some of this.

Advice on Treating Liver and Lymph Node Mets
My oncologist added Zytiga and prednisone on top of
Lupron
immediately after I finished chemo. My PSA dropped from 56 at the beginning of this journey to undetectable (< 0.02) in February of 2021.

Starting ADT
I had a visit last week with an MO who suggested
Lupron
plus one of the following to be decided based on my blood tests: Zytiga, Xtandi, or Erleada. I will start with
Lupron
on Tuesday.

Hmm... So in 2/20 my RO says I'm "cured", however, my MO butts in and declares...not so fast Bozo!!
No more
Lupron
and I can taper off Z and P!! Well, MO reminds me that I still meet 2/3 of the Stampede Trial criteria (G9 and PSA>20. My high was 28) and he wants me to continue meds until the end of 1/21. OK, since my SE's were relatively minor (even though I'm 72), I agreed.

I'm going to start Taxotere, what are the experiences that you guys have had with it?
Then Casodex failed in a month, Zytiga lasted fo about 9 months, I came back to America started Xtandi along with
Lupron
and Xtandi stopped working.
Lupron
is still doing its job though.

Second full body scan 2+ yrs later
I have been getting the
Lupron
shot only. I attribute the arrested growth of cancer to my supplements as the PSA# should have shown cancer growth. Also according to the AMA people, if the PSA is that high during a 2+ yr period, the Onclogists automatically assume the cancer is growing.
