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.

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.

New Member - recent diagnosis
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.

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?

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.

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.
