Experiences with

Natural desiccated thyroid (NDT)

Hi All, I recently posted with my situation and have a follow-up (final I hope) with Dr. Gorovets at MSK to finalize my non-surgical treatment plan. Just looking for any input, thoughts, advice. Greatly appreciated as always. I'm 60, GS 4+3, PSA 5.5, Decipher .55, clean PSMA Pet (full details in

Hello fellow warriors, I know there have been posts of Pluvicto both helping and failing. I am now awaiting a PSMA PET scan to discuss possibly doing Pluvicto. I was diagnosed in 2018 at 46 years old with mets to about 5 spots in the bones. I have been on ADT since the beginning. I was on Zytiga then

hi all, I am just about to turn 45 years old and I have had endo since I was 20. 5 laparoscopies over the years, hormone treatment, several pills and I’ve just had my coil removed as I still had periods etc every month. I am at my wits end now, but I’m wondering if a hysterectomy at 45 is a good idea

Bit lost on what to do with the dr tomorrow apart from ask for more NDT. Thanks

hi everyone! My dad just completed his second chemo treatment with docetaxel. He is now having bone pain in his right femur. We will have another PSMA scan after the third dose. Going into chemo most of his metastases had shrunk on ADT. While I know new pain could be a sign of worsening metastasis

I will be beginning ADT treatment with Firmagon and Nubequa shortly to start with Doublet therapy and was interested in what each med does differently?Much thanks.

Completed my Prostate radiation treatments on July 11. I am on ADT (Orgovyx, Abiraterone, prednisone), and Flomax. The ADT will coninue for at least 2 years. Last week, tested positive for Covid; put on Paxlovid- was advised to stop Flomax while on Paxlovid. Continuing with the other meds. Was told,

Had a PSMA scan that showed 2 Mets, one to lymph node, the other to a rib. Well there is no cure for me now. The met were radiated about a month ago but my side where rib is still sore. I assume the cancer is growing. They decided to not use ADT. I know that I am at the end. So getting my affairs in

I am a stage 4 PC patient diagnosed in August 2021 and have been on ADT double therapy ever since.I get Lupron shots every 3 months and take 2 tablets of Apalutamide (Erleada ) evey day. I have been lucky that I responded well to the treatment and have been undetectable ever since. I

I've tried Levo, NDT and Levo and NDT together which gave me the best results. I've been back at a gym for over a year now but my enery levels are not what they were. Somedays I end up needing a nap which is most unusual for me. Its not menopause as I've been on HRT for 7 years now.

Hi Ladies I’ve had good news from my July scan report. All new growth from recurrence is NED, good partial remission 😊 I had 6 cycles of Caelyx/Carbo after recurrence when 7 months of PARP Olaparib should have but hadn’t work, instead had new growth. I also started Avastin privately with Lloyds

I see MO today. History. Sbrt in 10-23. PSA at 1st checkup had risen to 11.8 12/23 Put down to post radiation inflammation. PSA 1/24 -8.6 PSA 5/24 - 4.6 PSA today 6.4. No ADT

I have been taking hormone therapy for the diagnosis of non-metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer for 10 years.

How do we help men, on this site, to reduce their chances of getting NEPC? I did a PSMA PET scan today. My blood tests looked pretty normal with psa at .5 and other tested looking like they usually do, except for blood glucose, which is normally in the 93-99 range for the past five years, but was 76

Any experience/tips getting serial liquid biopsies approved by US MO's? My MO has not brought it up but I am off ADT after 21 months due to undetectable PSA since the get-go. So now I'm on the check-PSA-every-3-month program. I wonder why serial liquid biopsies aren't SOC at this phase too? There

Had PT Therapy at MD Anderson 15 years ago with Pencil beam radiation. Gleason at the time 2009 was 6 (3 +3) and PSA was 5.9. I am now 73. Successfully treated and follow up every year for 5 years showed my PSA at between .2-.4. For 15 years up untiil now, no symptoms. According to MD Anderson,

husband has had two heart attacks Looks like he will have to have hormone therapy for Prostate cancer. Reading about link between the two raises real concern. Anyone who has both conditions who can advise.

I started CT3M with NDT and saw some improvement but I wasn’t really getting better. That’s when I discovered I have the DIO2 gene and decided to go cold turkey and drop NDT and switch to T3 only. After two weeks I started to feel better.

When adding second line hormone treatment do MO’s add zytiga first and Erleda later or does it matter what order? Thanks and Happy Monday!
