Need help in understanding PSA level recurrence after treatment.
In May 2023 I completed what the doctor hope would be a curative treatment of 38 sessions of radiotherapy accompanied by 2.25 years on Lupron + Zytiga. During that treatment, my PSA fell to < 0.01 and remained there until the end of the treatment. I had a blood test taken last Friday and it shows that

Erleada side effects
Would like to hear from those with personal experience that have added Erleada to ADT ( Lupron, Firmagon, Orgovyx). What additional side effects did you experience ( fatigue, cognitive, lab test changes, rash, etc). Not looking for studies or drug mfg info, I'm able to look at that. Want to hear real

QOL … how about a fun lighthearted uplifting post about “ manziers “ …
manziers …. Love ‘em ….hate them. Don’t use one , never thought about it ? Most of men here have big man boobs, some of us giant boobs … some have had them reduced / controlled with shots or radiation. If you are a male member of this group, you probably have had this issue on your mind more than

Intermittent ADT
Hi all,I am wondering what are your views on intermittent ADT? PSMA Pet scan has revealed one met in my ribs...it was treated with SBRT. I was given a 3 month Lupron shot which reduces my PSA to 0.24 ug/l. I'm considering going on IADT....6 months of ADT followed by 6 months break and repeat. Anyone

Advice via PM on purchasing T3 online would be gratefully received. Thinking of switching from NDT to Levothyroxine and T3
I don't think I am doing too well on the usual
NDT
I have had for quite a while. Thanks!

Living life after a prostatectomy
In 2021 was diagnosed with prostate cancer. I went through the operation and 2 months later lost my spouse of almost 50 years. Obviously, I had a lot put on my plate at one time. I'm on hormone therapy and it's dropped my PSA from 1 to .1. I would love to talk to someone who is going through the same

3 Months post ADT (Orgovyx) Still having hot flashes and fatigue-doing blood test in two weeks..for hopefully nadir..
Stopped taking Orgovyx May 30th .... August 30th will be my 90 day blood test I presume to see if my Testosterone is BACK TO NORMAL (I hope) and my PSA is less than .o2 ?? I understand that the Testosterone back to NORMAL is more possible in the short term (90 days) than longer term use of adt? Is

Decipher and Prolaris and Oncotype...oh my.
In reading about the many uses of these genomic tests, it seems that there is a wide consensus/opinions on how they should be used for decision making. Looks like these tests can change how the prostate cancer is treated or not treated. Also, seems to be a wide consensus/opinion to go with ADT or not

ADT or not for favourable intermediate risk with SBRT
Currently on AS, have repeat tp biopsy in October, this is routine for AS.Treatment advice, if I choose is SBRT but no ADT due to CVD risk as I have chads score 2, had 1 previous stroke in Feb 18 with full recovery, diagnosed May 2020 with paroxysmal AF, had 1 episode since so low burden, bisoprolol

A little humor?
Everyone might have heard this before but I hadn't. Before ADT I had a six pack, now I have a keg.

Distortion of Hba1c test with levo
Hi Someone asked me to give further info about my claim that HbA1c tests cannot be relied upon if you are being treated with levothyroxine. I can't find that request now so I'm starting a new thread. The clearest statement is on the American Thyroid Association website.
WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS

ADT before Surgery?
I have a prostatectomy which is probably 6-8 weeks in my future. My outlook is that metastasis in imminent. (T3bM0n0 and no evidence of cancer outside the gland as of May 25 PSMA PET scan, but I am told I am intermediate/unfavorable and my PSA went from 10 to 12 in only a month.) Today is August 18.

Confused - who can give me ADT injections?
Need some help with this. I traveled out of town to a Proton treatment Center of Excellence, and it was determined that I would start ADT upon returning home. So I got back home, contacted the RO who had originally seen me and suggested the Proton treatment, then set up an appointment to go into the
