My Journey

Lupron
and I start IMRT/SRT later this month. Thanks to y'all for sharing your stories. I look forward to being an active member of the community and sharing my journey. Blessings, Lasered

Should aberaterone be added to
Lupron
? Two years of hormone treatment is a long time, but I'd like to minimize the chance that anything will come back in a few years.

Just read a private chat from 2 years ago...This was my reply. Lu-177 thoughts (then/now) and the reality of "life in Omaha"
This
Lupron
crap (castration) has to be the worse of the things we do...because we know it will NOT end...short of a miracle. Hence I keep plugging along and hoping for a miracle !

Recommendations for urology surgeons?
Hello, Everyone--I have quite severe incontinence 3.5 years after a RP and radiation (but my PSA has been undetectable for over a year; I also had
Lupron
for 3 years) and need an AUS. MSK has specialist surgeons who are supposed to be very good. But they are also booked months in advance.

Amg160 did not work
His treatment so far has been,
Lupron
every 3 months,Zytiga only worked 1 year then 6 treatments of chemo, didn’t work, then Amg 160. His brother died a year ago after 5 years of fighting prostate cancer. Nothing was found with genetic testing.

Hello there! Would appreciate input..Hello there! Would appreciate input..
Really happy that I stumbled upon it during a search for, "Carpal Tunnel Syndrome relationship to
Lupron
." Not a lot of into on the subject so far. I was wondering if any of the folks on this site may have encountered this so-called rare side effect?

No evidence of LN Mets on latest CT scan. What now?
In July 2020, I was told that the mesorectal nodes were tiny and that ADT should take care of them (I have been on
Lupron
and Erleada since April 2020) and then the remaining nodes would be radiated. In November 2020, i was ready to embark on RT (EBRT to the pelvic LNs and prostate).

Waiting for PSA
(Gland removal in 2014, radiation and
Lupron
in 2017) PSA was .2 in April, .2 in May and .3 now in June. My MO says let it go above .5 so a scan may better locate the cells. He advises starting ADT now will put the tiger back to sleep before it can be found.

Keytruda update
Currently on
Lupron
and keytruda. A second Foundation One DNA test showed high mutational burden with mmr 2 and 6, cdk 12 and pten loss. As a result his MO started him on keytruda. After first infusion PSA went from 37 to 105. ALP dropped 50 points.

Depo-Provera Pros & Cons
My MO is suggesting Depo-Provera in response to my complaints about
Lupron
SEs. I'm a bit reluctant to take yet another 3-month shot, that can't be undone if I don't do well with its SEs . If you've tried it, what are your experiences?

Followup on Lack of CT Correlate: Is this a Liver Met?
MO admits this may instead be some kind of “metabolic response” that is not cancer, and as such should remain the same size when I scan again after 6 months of
lupron
/abiraterone.

Joint and leg pain!!!
But my theory is that the joint pain could be due to the chemo,
lupron
, Zytiga, etc! So isn’t that really cancer pain? Some of those meds do deplete joint lubricant? Thank you for your suggestions!

ADT vs physical castration pros and cons
Is the outcome from toxic drugs like
Lupron
(osteoporosis, high blood pressure, Parkinson, alzheimer, whatever else comes from long use of ADT) lessened by choosing physical castration?

My journey with PCa
Not wanting to play Russian roulette with cancer, I elected to have whole pelvic 40 SRT sessions and ADT treatment ( 6 mos
Lupron
with my testosterone at 469.4 ng/dL before injection). I finished my radiation about month ago and two weeks ago had ultra sensitive PSA and testosterone tests.

Brief, intense radiation and hormone therapy for very high risk prostate cancer
They added a short course of Erleada and Zytiga to just 6 months of
Lupron
. I think they erred in not treating the pelvic lymph nodes. https://www.prostatecancer.news/2021/06/brief-intense-radiation-and-hormone.html

Frustrated with Lupron weight gain and not being able to drop #'s
I've been on Abiraterone 250mg and
Lupron
90 day inj's and Prednisone since Sept 2019. And
Lupron
injection again. Disappointed with: Weight gain and lack of total energy. Should I be persistent with my med oncologist June 8th on my 21 months of APC treatment? Or not?
