ADT - HOT FLUSHES AND CALORIES CONSUMED
I am 3 months into Lupron and coping fairly well, I think, with the side effects so far, apart from the Hot Flushes (Flashes). I do not have many during the day but they seem to come at night and can sometimes be really intense and uncomfortable. I have found that the intensity for me seems to be related

PSA rising, rapidly
Well, it looks like my honeymoons of ADT are over. I was (and still am) on a tripple therapy along the lines of the ARASENS trial (Docetaxel, Lupron and NUBEQA) for about 2 years. My PSA started rising six months ago, at first slowly, but now very rapidly. It went from 0.04 to 0.05 then 0.17 (in three

treatment side effects vs cancer side effects
”Pain” vs “discomfort” in abdomen region following radiation and on Lupron- is it side effects or the cancer itself? Dad was diagnosed November 2023 and received radiation for 5 weeks that ended Jan 3rd. Started Lupron end of November. Cancer has spread to part of hip bone and pelvic lymph nodes.

Looking for answers
I got sick over 3 months ago and was prescribed a ZPack and a Medrol Pack. Three days into the treatment, I began experiencing anxiety, panic attacks, and insomnia. I continued the treatment and was told that my side effects would go away within 7-10 days after taking the last dose of the Medrol pack
