Side effects back 6months after treatment.
Hi all I am 67 and was diagnosed with prostate cancer last year with a PSA of11, an MRI indicated a couple of areas of concern in the prostate which was later confirmed by a Prostate biopsy (Ouch!!). I was given a choice of treatments and I opted (rightly or wrongly) for external beam radiotherapy

PSA from .08 to 2.1, after 2yrs ADT with zytiga and RT @59 yr
so seems to be back and waiting on PSMA PER SCAN. From what I understand, they usually look for something and do a scavenge RT treatment. Anyone who’s gone through this did you have to go back on ADT because that just sucks.. I had high risk Gleason score 9 anybody deal with this? I’m sure. Let me know

Proton Beam radiation
83 ys old, gleason 9, ADT since Feb 22=6 sessions until now. No prostatectomie. Proton beam radiation: 30 sessions = 72 Gy, result PSA 0,014 (undetectable), minor inkontinence (pads). I am very happy about the outcome. Living in Germany: insurances cover the cost( approx 50k)

A question about radiation resistance
Last week a post was made about Decipher showing high radiation resistance. My decipher showed the same. Quick question. If you have had SBRT and it hasn't deliver a “killing dose” to tumor, is brachytherapy a follow up option? My PSA showed rise after SBRT, (from 8.6 to 12) Ro and Mo attributed

1 year on - no PSA but tumor has "progressed"
Hi all I am writing on behalf of my dad, who is not as tech literate as I am. He was diagnosed with adenocarcinoma of the prostate (suspicious nodule in the left peripheral zone) back in June 2023 following an initial MRI, biopsy and PSA test (results from those tests are below). He was advised to

Hi! We’re beginning to research facilities for second opinions, next step guidance to supplement what we’re learning from our local doctor. My husband is BRCA2 positive, had a prostatectomy, salvage radiation and now his PSA is starting to creep back up. I know it’s too early to take additional treatment

Neuroendocrine Prostate cancer (NEPC) questions.
I’ve had some very concerning symptoms lately so I started looking up more about NEPC. I have some of the listed symptoms. I’ve been under enormous stress lately, caring for my mom who’s in her 90s. The stress may have cause my cancer to mutate. Last year I remember reading something on this site

Making a Case for Intermittent ADT in Metastatic Hormone Sensitive Prostate Cancer
FPC'ers, Many times, we hear people claim that you should only stop ADT if you can't tolerate it any longer, and that it will not slow castrate resistance; that it increases risk for stroke, and heart attack; that it will likely take years for your testosterone to recover; that it increases mortality

improving!
My PSA reading a few months ago was 1900+. it had been rising constantly for three years. Then I started taking Fenbendazole tablets for three days each week, and my PSA reading dropped by 400 each month and it is now 800+ and hopefully continuing to reduce! Mobellman

Looks like this is the next step for hubby as LU177 Pluvicto 6 treatments completed. Unfortunately PSA has doubled, so going to try a reverse approach suggested by our Urologist. John Hopkins was the study trial location. Hubby would be our urologist first patient to try this. See if you can find

Trying to make sense of things
Can anyone explain why some people have Gleason 8 PC, high PSA and have metastatic disease, yet some with Gleason 9 and 10 have low-ish PSA (as far as PC goes) and no obvious metastatic disease (confirmed by PSMA)? I am trying to understand this damn disease and sometimes there doesn’t seem to be any

Ct scan of abdomen and pelvis and full body bone scan?
