Happy Holidays Gents, I was diagnosed 13 years ago with stage IV Gleason 7. Every so often my PSA elevated and I am placed back on an anti-androgen. In this case Lupron and Casodex. Treatment path: Lupron, seeds and radiation. Now my PSA is elevating very fast with no indication of metastasis. My

Hormone therapy with the lutamides and keepin your testosterone intact
We have plenty of them now. Flutamide, nylutamide, bicalutamidee, ensulutamide, ampulutamide, darolutamide. Are there any more? There are also adjuncts to these. I use avodart, some in clinical trials. I failed casodex after 7+ yrs than xtandi for a year with lupron which I think wasn't necessary since

New to the group... need ideas
Diagnosed with stage 4 PC about 3 years ago. Bone mets and one lymph node. PSA 81 Gleason 7. Began Lupron/Xgeva treatment. After a year, Mets undetectable and PSA ~2. Added Casodex and PSA quickly dropped to .05. At 2 years PSA started doubling every 3 months. Also developed ONJ due to prolonged Xgeva

An Update of ADT2 Treatment for My Metastatic Prostate Cancer
it is one month since I started taking Casodex and 17 days since first Lupron shot. Now I am having hot flashes regularly. Every day when I get up from bed I have an episode like clockwork. Somedays it is very intense and other days moderately strong. Throughout the day I get more episodes at random

Latest on Casodex
What is the latest research on Casodex? My MO in Chicago is tells me Casodex has lost favor with many US MO's and most are turning to other drugs. Presently I am on a Casodex vacation (7 months) and trying to determine if I should start Casodex again or try something else. Before the vacation I had been

Desperate for Help
i have been urinating more than normal and retaining urine. Went to a urologist a couple months ago and was diagnosed with pca. The urologist started me on Lupron and Casodex after being catheterized for a few weeks because of retention. The retention has subsided, but i am still urinating frequently

Drug holiday coming to an end
Just a short update on my health. MRI end of October showed no metastasized cancer. Just one lymph node 15.1 mm. Testesterone is coming back into the system. It is now more than 8 months since my last Lucrin injection. But the PSA moved. This week the test showed up from 0.04 to 0.17. My GP freaked out

Zytiga for high-risk non-metastatic PCa?
Hi fellows, My cancer was diagnosed as Gleason 9 and non-metastatic. It's been treated in recent months with EBRT and brachytherapy. I'm on Casodex & Lupron, and the Lupron will continue into 2020. But I feel maybe I could be doing more. Sometimes I'll read on the message boards that someone who seems

8 years since dx, doing well ...
Hi, I'm new here, brief history of my prostate cancer is below. My cancer has been kept under control with very low dose casodex since psa recurrence, so I'm grateful for that. Casodex monotherapy for high risk pca patients is not the standard treatment, however it's working for me, at least until now
