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.

Continue Lupron after continuing PSA rise?
My question is that since the cancer has already found a way around the hormone deprivation, what would be the harm of discontinuing the
lupron
? What are your thoughts?

Started ADT (
Lupron
). Radiology is scheduled for the fall of this year. The bone scan was clear. PET scan scheduled for next week. As far as my PSA, it was .99 in Q4 of 19 and rose to 5.06 over 18 months.

A Return To Normal?
I’m contemplating having a discussion with my care team on ending my dependency on zytiga, prednisone and
lupron
. My thought process is I’d rather feel like the my of 3 years ago for whatever time I could than living with the continuous ups and downs of the adt regiment.

Which is more effective -- Lupron or Diphereline? or which is better?
I used to have
Lupron
(a monthly shot), but the urologist at Taiwan National University said there are now limited supplies left for children use only. So, I am currently having the 3-month Diphereline shot. Which is better when it comes to efficacy?

Off label use of Mekinist (Trametinib)
Lupron
but resistance developed within year. Over next 3 years Provenge, Zytiga, Xtandi and Taxotere. By summer 2014 extensive in bone marrow. Xofigo started in Feb 2014. Became anemic and could only be kept alive with monthly blood transfusions. Xofigo stopped in August. PSA over 120.

Should I have my testosterone levels checked?
I have been doing very well since DX in November 2018, on
Lupron
, 750mg of arbiraterone, and prednisone. My PSA seems stabilized at 0.3 and my other blood readings are well within limits.

PSA Anxiety and Intermittent ADT for Metastatic Prostate Cancer
Then during one year on
Lupron
+Casodex my PSA drops from 4.48 to 0.06. Then during a nine month ADT break my PSA increases to 0.07 to 0.135 during the first 6 months and in the last three months it increases to 0.456. So, ADT is restarted.

Thank you!
My urologist recommended EBRT and 2 years of
Lupron
. Several members of this group offered suggestions; Tall_Allen recommended either SBRT or HDR brachy with EBRT. I followed his suggestion of using Dr.

Just got my last Lupron shot (hopefully) ...
The
Lupron
gave me a safety blanket that will be pulled away in 4 months. It'll be nice to be off of it but it's rather scary as well.

Anyone using Dr. Scott Tagawa in NYC @ Cornell?
I was on Zytiga 2.5 years ,
Lupron
since chemo (ended 11/2017) and Xgeva since chemo. However I stopped Xgeva 4.5 months ago because of I now have MONOJ. This past 02/2021 I just had 20 rounds of radiation to the prostate.

Lupron

Reducing zytiga dose
Hi, my full story is in my profile, but a recap: 10 years ago, prostate removed; then radiation; then
Lupron
. Recent events: Became ADT resistant, mets in lymph nodes. Stayed on
Lupron
, added Casodex- bad reaction to Casodex.

Has anyone had success re-starting medicine after Chemo?
1) Casodex (2 months) 2) Zytiga (I think 4 months, but kept taking it to be safe since I moved back to America) 3) Xtandi (5 months but probably lasted for two since I see Doc every 3 months) One of my first thoughts is since Casodex maybe lasted a month or two, try to restart it along with the

Blame it on Lupron
HELP! I know I've seen a glossary of terms, or list of abbreviations used, for this site, but now I can't find it.

Newbie. Good day to all!
Am also on
Lupron
and Xtandi. Had chemo five years ago. No radiation, no surgery. Gleason 9, of course. PSA holding steady below 5 most of time with occasional temporary bump ups a few ticks. Medical care is VA, which I‘m satisfied with.
