Hormonal injections and oral hormones
Can hormone injections like
Lupron
, Zoladex, etc. be also castration resistant? 2) if
Lupron
or Zoledex can be castration resistant, how do we know which one — hormonal injections or oral hormones— is castration restriction?

Castration resistant in just a year? Normal or not? Provenge in my future.
Still on
Lupron
and Nubeqa. Most of what I've read on doctor google says mCRPC takes 2-3 years to develop. Is that accurate in the group's experience. Am I just "lucky?" LOL I'm just completely bewildered in how I've gone from no indication of cancer 18 months ago to where I'm at now.

Husband has passed
He seemed to be doing quite well with ADT treatment
Lupron
/ea 3 months, plus bone shot, and Abiraderone 250 mg daily for 2 1/2 yrs. Had all the terrible side effects you all experience. On no medication other than that. No other illnesses.

Weakness in legs/calf muscles?
Just finishing first 6 months on
Lupron
. Despite regular leg exercises, I have incredible weakness in legs/calf muscles, making it very difficult to walk. Anyone else experience this? Is this caused by
Lupron
? Any solutions? Thank you.

Still true that using same scan type is preferable to changing scan type?
He's been stable since chemo with his current Eligard & Xgeva treatment--see full Profile for his record of
Lupron
, radiation, Zytiga (failed), Docetaxel at year five, followed by lifelong Eligard and quarterly Xgeva.

Advice - Surgery or Radiation?
right. 1 cm low left pelvic sidewall lymph node. 9 mm right pelvic sidewall lymph node The radiologist suggested 3 markers to be inserted with 20 visits of external beam, also mentioned something else that I do not recall the name of but 5 visits with more radiation each time, both combined with

Cognition Issues
He is now on a clinical trial with NUBEQA plus
Lupron
. It brought his PSA from 14 to 4.5 and it is just setting around there for about 3 months. He just had a PSMA scan, a CT scan and an MRI all of which were NED.

PSA suppression
In the end, I decided to skip Abi, Enza &
Lupron
and go back in time to DES (diethylstilbestrol). It's a synthetic estrogen that maintains bone health even while estradiol falls to zero. And it has anti-PCa properties.

Feeling sore and tired
I have been on
Lupron
since the beginning, I had radiation to my prostate as well as the other four spots back in 2019. I took Xtandi for three years. After being undetectable my PSA rose slightly for about a year and a half and I had a few more spots zapped with radiation.

How high must the PSA levels be before cancer can be seen in a CT scan?
Following the end of my treatment (radiation,
lupron
, Zytiga, prednisone) with curative intent back in May, my PSA has risen from undetectable to 0.09. As discussed on another thread this is not alarming at this stage since I still have a prostate as I never had surgery to remove it.

New Developments in My Husband's PCA Journey
A repeat psa on 12/5/23 revealed his psa had risen to .273 (so a definite biochemical occurence).My husband's surgical oncologist at Yale immediately referred him to a Medical Oncologist who started him on Casodex followed by
Lupron
two weeks later.

1st Lupron shot - when do side effects kick in?
I'm bracing myself for the side effects, haha. Wife is going away for a few days and she said when she returns she expects to see me in the kitchen, baking cookies and watching reality TV. Wondering how long it will take before I feel anything...then again, I'll probably find out tonight when I roll

How long to Castrate Resistance: ADT+/- ARSI
They cannot report it for Enza mono as they could always add
Lupron
, and these had supra-physiologic Testosterone levels, so do not meet criteria for CR. It is an additional unmeasured possible advantage of ARSI monotherapy as it could be followed with ADT when monotherapy fails.

paxlovid and abiraterone
He is on that, flomax and
lupron
. I know it’s better to take paxlovid before it gets much worse. We can’t reach the doctor till tomorrow, so I was just curious what you all have learned.

testosterone finally moving up after Treatment.
Finally after 19 months of
lupron
and zytiga and 40 rounds of radiation my testosterone has hit 325. I do 3 month testing and it has held for 6 months. I can feel the difference and am not only doing more but my weight is falling off and glucose has a hard time going above 115.

gleason score
Started
lupron
2 weeks ago. Just had biopsy which showed gleason score of 4+3= 7. Im happily shocked, was prepared for a 10. i’m not sure what to even think about this. Any of you big brains further down the road have any insight ?

Bleeding after salvage radiation
Currently about one year into
Lupron
+ Abiraterone + prednisone. Recently experienced very mild rectal and/or blood in stool. Is this likely due to the radiation, or something else?

PSA doubled 3 months after chemo - normal or a concern?
I’m currently on
Lupron
and NUBEQA, and completed 6 rounds of taxotere at the end of April (Triplet Therapy). PSA cut in half every three weeks while on the chemo going from 0.944 in January to 0.013 in April.
