Pluvicto Availability in the US
I am at a turning point in my journey. My first PSMA PET confirms that my adenocarcinoma has reactivated and is no longer responsive to Abiraterone/pred and Lupron. My oncologist feels I would be a good candidate for Lutetium 177 PSMA therapy however there is no supply in Colorado except for a clinical

Jevtana stopped working. Considering Nubeqa
all in my profile. Diagnosed late December 2018. Multiple bone Mets. Started lupron and docetaxel. Brought psa down from 14.7 to .08. Also apparently dried up most Mets. Psa started to rise and started zytiga, which souped working in 3 months. Started Xtandi, which didn't work at all. Started Jevtana

Worried Daughter
Hi Gentleman, I am here to find some hope, positivity, and some recommendations for my father who I love so dearly. My dad was diagnosed 5 years ago at age 65 with stage 4 prostate cancer and advanced METs, a terrible retirement gift. He started on the Lupron shot and 6 rounds of chemo (Docetaxel).

Advanced PCa - medication side effects or brain mets?
Hi everyone, Nice to meet you all - this is my first time writing on here and I am so inspired by all of you. I was hoping that you could share some of your experience (or some words of assurance). My dad (62) was diagnosed with relatively aggressive, stage 3 prostate cancer back in 2019, and he

New Med
I had my bloodwork done as part of my annual checkup with my PCP. The results came back, and my Thyroid (TSH) is (High) at 6.360. So, my PCP prescribed a med to try and control it. Has anyone had a similar circumstance.? New Med is Levothyroxine. I checked and saw no conflict with the Lupron I'm taking

Question about bicalutamide

Between a rock and another rock...
Was just told by my uro-onc that Casodex is about to kill me by shutting down my liver, based on 3 liver enzyme readings (ALT=177; AST=144; ALK.PH.=482). If I stop taking it, PCa will kill me. Right now, PSA is undetectable. Casodex monotherapy has worked for 4 yrs, but now I have very little choice

Dipyridamole To Reduce Platelet Formation, inhibit Fibrin Coating
Has anyone taken the above with the hope of reducing/inhibiting metastasis, and tumor formation? This is an old drug used for at risk stroke and heart attack patients. It is also an anti-inflammatory (COX-2 path) . It's primary purpose is to curtail the formation of platelets and platelet adhesion

Catch 22 - Hormone sensitive but can't tolerate hormone therapy
This is related to my posts about Lupron giving me intolerable and treatment resistant depression. The Lupron did work so far as bringing my PSA down to essentially zero which should mean it is suppressing the cancer. It is the front line SOC (Standard of Care) - FDA approved, proven in practice, etc

On Lupron/Zytiga/Prednisone for nearly 1 YR - Stage 4 w/Bone Met
I was diagnosed with Stage 4 (Gleason 8-9) last August and was immediately put on Lupron, then Zytig/Pred after 3 months. PSA was only 1.2 but actually more like 2.4 since I was on Finestride. Testosterone was 650. Now after 1 year, I'm at 0.02 PSA and <5 Testosterone, both immeasurable. Prior PET

Docetaxel didn't work, what's next?
Hi there! My father (65M from Toronto) was diagnosed almost three years ago with prostate cancer and we're really starting to lose hope. This community seems so informed and caring, I'd appreciate any thoughts that you may have about my dad's diagnosis :) In 2019, his PSA rose to 10.4 and then to

Maybe One of You Can Benefit From This: Radiation Again After 10 Years of ADT.
Basically, I have been on Lupron and Zytiga for 10 years, except for 3 vacations from both during my first 5 years. I also had my prostate removed 6 months after dx, which was "experimental" and had the largest tumor in my left acetabulum (hip) radiated 2 yrs after dx. I started to see a rise in my

Can Lupron and Enzalutamide raise blood pressure and blood sugar?
Hi Guys! Has anybody had the experience in getting high blood pressure and high blood sugar level from Lupron and Enzalutamide? Is this a rare thing or a common thing for those cancers treated with hormonal drugs like Lupron and Enzalutamide? Appreciate your responses. Thanks.

when are maximum lupron side effects ?
I am new here. My Husband started Lupron 4 weeks ago for a 6 month course with salvage radiation. As expected he is tired and has brain fog. In your experience will these symptoms get worse or has the nadir been reached and one could expect him to feel the same for the next 6+ months ? Thank you Tasha

Any hope?
In 2018 I started Zytiga and Lupron. Zytiga stopped working after three years. In December of 2021 I started Taxotere. It didn’t help. I had 25 treatments of radiation treatment for my pelvis area. Treatment stopped on 7/18/22. Now I’m dealing with the side effects. Anything else after the treatments
